Have you ever woken up one day and asked yourself, "how did I get here? This cannot be my life. This is not how I saw things panning out for me. I don't deserve this. My life doesn't seem to have any purpose." Then, have you tried to think through how to get off the rollercoaster or treadmill that seems to have become your life?
Much like many others, Heather Walton faced a great number of hurdles throughout her life, including poverty, abuse in many forms, lack of education, being a solo mom, and bankruptcy, plus quite a few others. However, Walton didn't just survive these struggles; she thrived through the adversity. Now, Walton strives to change her life story and inspire others going through the same struggles she once did to leave the monotonous treadmill of life and forge their own path.
In Rags to Riches to the Real Me, Heather Walton will show you that you can start over at any age and heal your life. You can rewrite your story with a happy ending. By following the 21 simple step-by-step exercises and making a daily ritual to recreate a life worth living, you can become someone that you can be proud of.
There is nothing more empowering than to look back on your struggles or trauma and know that it did not define you; that they simply gave you a few scars or characteristics that made you into the strong resilient person you can become.
