Our guest in this episode, Rachel Closson, is one I’m thrilled to introduce you to. She went from working nights and weekends, burning the candle at both ends, to now living a slow, intentional life with 2 kids and 30 chickens, and owning a business where she pours into other women. We bonded over holding boundaries, creating a vision for the life you deserve, and chickens (yes, even chickens), and I know you’ll find this conversation so empowering.
