Empowered to Thrive

by Corinne Guido-Powell

I keep it real, choose raw over polish and promote progressive healing. I'm a mom to 4 so I talk parenting sometimes. I love all things inner child and teach people how to connect with their inner self. I'm also someone who's still a part of church after going on a deconstruction journey so stuff around that comes up too.
