315: The Importance of Firsts (Plus My Favorite Firsts of 2022)

You only live once!   Welcome to today's episode of the 'School of Self-Image' Podcast with host and self-image coach, Tonya Leigh, where personal development meets style. This a go-to podcast for women who desire to transform their self-image so that they can create mind-blowing results in their lives.   Living in the now could be easy for some, but for others is not. So, let me ask you a question ~ When was the last time you try something new? There can be a lot of different ways to answer this. One thing that stands out is if you'll answer it based on what you think or what you feel.    I know, sometimes life could be good or not-so-good. This can either drive you to stop or keep moving forward. But this can also affect how you are living today. Life is simply life itself for you, for us to live.   As 2022 is nearly bidding goodbye, I'd like to share some of my favorite firsts of the year. I thought of sharing this topic because it might help you get inspired to do further beyond your own limits (or probably what your mind thinks so.)    So, let me challenge you to do more things for the first time in 2023.
