Guest Cheri Neal, a trailblazing public servant and author, shares her transformative journey of resilience, faith, forgiveness, and community impact. Feeling overwhelmed after her divorce, Cheri was inspired to learn how to raise Monarch butterflies. This experience opened her up to the remarkable process of transformation -- a process which is inherent in each of us. Starting as caterpillars, the butterflies taught her about shedding limiting layers, embracing discomfort, taking risks, trusting the Divine process and learning to fly. In this episode, Cheri shares personal stories about running for public office (losing and winning), finding ways to work with those who stood against her, writing her book Message of the Monarch, walking the Camino de Santiago, and igniting joy in her community -- all which mirror the path of the Monarch. Cheri also reveals how forgiveness, collaboration, and courage lead to personal and collective growth, and her life demonstrates that the greatest contribution you can make to the world is to transform yourself.
