How to Recognize the Spiritual Signposts in Your Life and Age with Grace (feat. Cheryl Richardson)
Have you ever experienced something so inexplicable that you knew it had to be more than just a coincidence?
Experiences like this make us believe that a benevolent force of energy is available to guide and direct our lives. My guest, Cheryl Richardson, calls this energy grace.
She believes that every event we experience, and every person we meet has been put in our path for a reason. She’s here to speak more about the transformational power of grace.
Cheryl Richardson is the NYT bestselling author of several books, including, Take Time for Your Life, Life Makeovers and The Unmistakable Touch of Grace. She was the first president of the International Coach Federation. Her work has been covered widely in the media, including Good Morning America, The Today Show, New York Times and O Magazine. She was the team leader for the Lifestyle Makeover Series on the Oprah Winfrey Show and accompanied Ms. Winfrey on the “Live Your Best Life” nationwide tour.
During our conversation, Cheryl and I discuss the significance of coincidences and how to recognize and interpret them through the lens of grace. She also talks about tapping into grace so that we can feel vibrant and balanced as we age.
