How Personal Development Can Change Your Life with Angie Simmons
Monday Aug 07, 2023
Monday Aug 07, 2023
Today I’m joined by Angie Simmons of Growth Development Foundation
We chat about Personal Development, her undated Journal ‘How am I feeling today?’, and Angie shares lots of tips you can put in place right now.
Angie shares her story, the setbacks she’s faced losing her brother and her Mum, and how she has turned her mental mess into her message. She now shares her knowledge with her clients and how to use personal development and journaling to develop their own coping strategies.
We chat around emptying your head into a Journal and literally asking yourself “How am I felling?”. Journaling allows you to monitor your daily thoughts, feelings, and actions, which we so often miss. We also talk about gratitude and focussing on the positive, rather than the negative.
Angie is a Platinum member of the Woman Who Achieves Academy. You can find out more about Angie here:
