Today's Heartlift is Awesome

Janell Rardon is a wise and generous teacher! She shares so much wisdom, insight and information in each podcast! She’s speaks clearly and from the heart! She is focused, so she covers so much information clearly and effectively. She also honors the time efficiently, which is great blessing for a mom who doesn’t have a lot of time to listen. I’d listen more in the car, but I always want to take notes!

Listen to my “stronger every day” conversations with friends & folks all over this glorious place we call home.
