You have heard me mention the program called Podapalooza many times during these podcast episodes. Podapalooza is an environment where podcasters, would-be podcasters, and persons who want to be interviewed on podcasts mingle and generate incredible interviews. My conversation this week with Donna Fairhurst started at a Podapalooza event. Donna’s story demonstrates our unstoppable nature as profoundly as I could ever imagine. You quickly will see, I believe, why she takes the title of Chief Evolving Officer at her company Soul Full Solutions. Her life experiences have helped her grow and, yes, evolve as you will see. You will hear that she was born legally blind. She contracted polio at the age of 1. She also actually could see auras and spirits and she could communicate with them. Don’t knock it until you hear more from Donna. Donna gives us many incites we can use in our daily lives. For example, while we discuss life’s challenges she said to me, “you can feel broken and still choose to rise”. That is by any standard as unstoppable as you ever will find. Donna and I discuss a variety of topics around spirituality, love, and life. She offers many lessons that we all can use and take to the heart within our own world. I sincerely hope you find my conversation with Donna useful. I know I do, and, as you will see when it is published, my new book, A Guide Dog’s Guide To Being Brave (current working title) contains discussions of many of the topics Donna talks about with us. Enjoy this episode and just live life to the fullest. About the Guest: Donna Fairhurst is a Life & Soul Coach, Reiki Master, and the Chief Evolving officer of Soul Full Solutions, blessed and grateful for the opportunity to share her purpose for being.
