Episode Description

Today’s guest is SO good that she’s a repeat guest on the show! You might recognize her from Episode 37, Get Inspired to Do the “DAMN” Thing. Bevin Farrand is a rockstar, my former business coach, and truly an inspiration.

In 2019, after unexpectedly losing her husband 5 days after they returned from a whirlwind trip to France, Bevin Farrand founded the Take the DAMN Chance movement. Her DAMN framework has inspired hundreds to connect with the people that they love, do the “crazy thing” that makes all the difference and, when given a choice, to take the damn trip. Additionally, she is a coach who supports women in achieving their goals, even after going through deeply challenging experiences.


In this episode, we’ll chat about:


  • What the D.A.M.N. framework is
  • How to take loss and make something amazing on the other side of it
  • Honoring all the emotions we feel
  • The power of micro actions
  • Deciphering what is YOUR dream vs. what is someone else's dream imposed on you is
  • Knowing your “why” but releasing the “how”
