FIERCELY AUTHENTIC

FIERCELY AUTHENTIC

By Natalie Gifford

When you show up authentic, you create the space for others to do the same. Own your mess! This podcast is a place of Self REdiscovery where I, your host, Natalie Gifford, will walk you through my darkest moments and share with you how I not only survived, but learned to THRIVE! First time mom, full time IT and Special Projects manager, AND business owner, I know busy! But I also know darkness, mental illness, and the need for God’s unchanging and everlasting LOVE! Join me as I navigate thru self-rediscovery, healing, and building the life my family deserves!
