Why it’s so important to have a support network around you, especially when you’re processing grief
Book Recommendations: The Body Keeps the Score and There’s No Good Card For This
How to show up for people when they’re going through a hard time
Why Megan believes everyone should take solo trips and how it makes you feel even more like yourself
The personality tests that Megan thinks everyone should take to get to know themselves (one of them is not what you think!)
Rapid Fire from Megan:
What gets her fired up every day: Movement practice
A book or podcast she loved recently: Permission to Offend by Rachel Luna
Her advice for making your next investment: Get quiet and reflect on what the one thing is that you need right now that would help multiple areas of your life and then make a list of the options that would help you get that and see which one feels right without getting emotional about it
A woman she thinks you should follow: Dr. Laura DeCesaris
Best advice she’s ever been given: Selfish isn’t a bad thing and selfless isn’t a badge of honor, so at the end of the day, do what’s going to be best for you and stop worrying about what everyone else will think.
