Being Brave & Building Spiritual Self Esteem with Sheila V

I'm so excited to have Sheila V back on the Spirit School podcast! This is her third time as a guest and we both have expanded a lot since our last conversation. We originally met when we were both contributors to a blog and felt a soul connection. I always feel the presence of spirit when I am in Sheila’s energy and her episodes have been popular with Spirit School listeners too!

In this conversation, Sheila talks about her book, Brave, and how you can start being more brave in your everyday life. We both share the philosophy that you can apply your spiritual gifts in your existing career and start opening up to ways you can serve. Being brave also helps you build your spiritual self esteem and learn to trust in your abilities. Sheila also shares about her experience manifesting her husband and their IVF journey. In addition to speaking on stages, her dream of having a platform was also realized in a way she couldn’t have predicted when she was approached by a TV network about documenting her fertility journey. When we surrender, our manifestations will come in divine timing!

Join us both for the Bravely Spiritual 2-Day Accelerator at Spirit School in beautiful Squamish, BC! This 2-Day retreat will expand you spiritually and increase your confidence when connecting with spirit. Development and transformation are amplified in these settings!
