Description
You will want to listen in if you need a dose of FIRE for how you show up in your world and in your pursuits. I see you leaning into the conversations around taking good care of yourself and purposefully transforming into the person you're called to be. To me, I believe you are mothering yourself in ways, and today’s conversation is for the boldness that I know is inside of you!   In today's episode, we speak with Shunta Grant, an incredible woman. Shunta is a mother of two, a runner, and a Peloton enthusiast who lives in Greenville, South Carolina. Shunta is the owner of a great brand and company called Best Today Guide, which promotes being over doing and being before doing, which was launched in March 2020.    Shunta’s brand's mission is to help women see, love, and be themselves fully. She is on a mission to help women be proactive and intentional with their time through planning and routine. We talked about how she has just shaken up how she does life and how she shows up in the world. Besides, we spoke about self-awareness, self-love, and overcoming self-comparison, amongst other hot topics.   Listen in for more!   In this episode, you’ll learn: [10:02]Best Today's Guide mission [10:47]Shunta's Residence [12:37]Where does Shunta get her confidence from?
