In this Miracle Moment, Marci Shimoff explores a surprising question: Could you be unconsciously addicted to struggle? Drawing from her own personal breakthrough, Marci shares how many of us inherit beliefs about suffering from our families, cultures, and even our ancestors.

Alchemy happens when you discover the wisdom hidden within your challenges. You can break generational patterns and create a new legacy of ease, joy, and abundance. The best way to honor your ancestors may be to thrive. Memorable Quotes "I thought I would get a gold medal for suffering."
