REPLAY- Rose Colored Glasses: The Road to Happiness with Samantha Kestin
from The Next ChaptHER · host The Next ChaptHER -Fully Informed Life
It’s been a season of slowing down and healing after my reconstruction surgery on October 6th, and at my recent follow-up, my doctors said the words “you’re healing beautifully.” Those words instantly lifted my spirits and reminded me how much happiness comes from choosing to notice the good, even in the messy middle. So this week, I’m replaying one of my very first and most joyful conversations — my chat with Samantha Kestin, the creative heart behind Sweet Samantha. Samantha lives by her grandfather’s advice: “When you love what you do, you never work a day in your life.” In this episode, we talk about what it really means to find happiness, create sweetness, and keep following the road back to joy. It feels extra special to revisit this one because Samantha is joining me today for my first live Next ChaptHER Connect event — Courage & Caramels: Finding Happiness Even When Life Feels Sticky. Together we explore: 💗 What happiness looks like when life doesn’t go as planned 🍬 How creativity and kindness can shift your mindset 💫 The courage it takes to choose joy — one sweet step at a time 💕 Connect with Samantha Kestin Website: www.sweet-samantha.com Instagram: @sweetsamcakes ✨ Connect with Andrea Hecht If you’re ready to start writing your next chapter, visit www.fullyinformedlife.com to schedule your complimentary discovery session.
