Welcome to the June newsletter for Jen Grisanti Consultancy Inc. Your past, with all its beautiful and haunted memories, is written in your mind. What if you could learn how to access your past and "re-truth" it? In other words, what if you could re-write your past? Would you find this liberating? Your past and learning how to mine it is what connects you to your calling in life. No matter who you are or what business you are in, your story is what connects you to others. Understanding your story is key. By creatively reflecting, analyzing, understanding and recasting what happened in your past, you can become more empowered and fulfilled in your present.
