Speaking of Bea
In a world where uncertainty faces each and every one of us every single day - in our homes, our family lives, our workplaces, individuals, particularly working professionals, struggle to cope, to carry on, to believe in themselves and overcome these everyday circumstances which are perceived as challenges. When seemingly successful adults search for the strength to endure, they are often haunted by the pitfalls of their pasts, which hinder their progress and devalue personal feelings of self-worth.
Oftentimes victims of abuse, poverty, or disabilities, they cringe at the thought of yet a new challenge which seemingly blocks their path of happiness.
But what if, in just 30 brief minutes, you could hear a story of triumph over adversity? Or learn how to cut through all the junk on the pathway of life, laugh at the set-backs facing you, and discover, that with faith and perseverance, you could cultivate the virtues necessary to become a person of character - and ultimately achieve that much sought-after success?
