Andrea Vallely on Trust and Growth

Upheaval and Personal Growth

 

Andrea Vallely’s  life was picture-perfect on the outside – a lucrative career, a beautiful home, and a loving family. Yet, when the 2007 financial crash hit, her world crumbled, revealing that true happiness isn’t found in material wealth.

Her story takes us through the pain of financial loss, the betrayal of a partner, and the daunting task of rebuilding her life from scratch. But it’s not just a tale of struggle; it’s a narrative filled with moments of profound insight and spiritual awakening.

Andrea’s resilience shines through as she navigates the aftermath of the crash, which left her scrambling for work and grappling with the stark realization that her happiness was not tied to her possessions. It was during this turmoil that a friend handed her a book that would change her life.

This episode isn’t just about the fall and rise of one woman; it’s a testament to the human spirit’s ability to transcend adversity. It’s about finding joy and love in the most unexpected places and learning to live authentically, without the weight of our stories. Andrea’s journey encourages us to look within for happiness and to trust the path life has in store for us.

 

Andrea Vallely on Moving Forward With Trust

 

 

“I knew I’d be okay. I knew I didn’t have anywhere to go. I didn’t have a credit score that was going to help me out.”

 

“When I let go of the idea that I was stuck, the red carpet was just rolled out, rolled out, rolled out.”

 

“I have everything that everyone could ever imagine, and I got tears pouring down my face.”

 

“I trust the journey. I trust that I’m held.”

 

“Authenticity is the license to be who you really are without your story.”
