Ep. #63  As the new year unfolds, I've found myself surrounded by angel numbers and big-ass calendars, plotting my journey towards grand aspirations and daily triumphs. My latest podcast episode is a sanctuary where I unravel the threads of wellness, from the proteins that fuel my day to the ghee that graces my table, all while wrestling with the profound search for life's purpose. Join me in a heartfelt Q&A session that ventures beyond the surface, exploring how the choices we make align with our deepest values and the pursuit of wellness. In this conversation, you'll hear about the complexities of fertility and the misconceptions around trying for a baby, as I open up about my own journey and readiness for parenthood. I also respond to your curiosity about my stance on lip fillers and my personal experiences with cosmetic procedures. Plus, I don't shy away from talking business – highlighting the importance of community building and sharing my own ventures.  Leave Me a Message - click here! For Mari’s Instagram click here!
