Meg Worden and I met at a book signing event in Portland this spring where we easily connected. There was something incredibly heartfelt and meaningful about the way she related to me.
Since then, I’ve enthusiastically supported Meg and the incredible work that she offers to the world.
And in case your wondering – the reason that I’m such a huge fan is because of Meg’s ability to make a heartfelt connection with me early on. The bottom line is that she’s smart, funny, and she tells the truth in a way that grips your soul.
Meg has an incredible story of hope, resilience, and reinvention. In this interview, you’ll hear how Meg overcame the adversity of spending two years in federal prison and re-emerging as a masterful writer, speaker, teacher, coach, and influencer.
She helps people own their stories and ditch their shame so that they can serve the world by connecting to humanity in a way that’s unmistakably and authentically real.
Connecting with others in a meaningful way will separate you from the masses, in both business and in life. Listen as Meg tells her moving story while also introducing you to the skills of creating more meaningful connections.
