Welcome to the Go Be Great with Coach Karena show! I am beyond excited to have you join me for another week of inspiration, empowerment, and transformation. I am absolutely loving life, soaking in the beauty of the world around me, and I want to share that love with all of you.

Today's episode is truly special as I have an incredible guest joining me – the amazing Shelley Meche'tte. Shelley is a certified life purpose and confidence coach, as well as a mom life strategist. We dive deep into discussions about self-discovery, finding balance, and rediscovering your identity.

Shelley shares her journey of understanding the importance of knowing oneself and how it plays a crucial role in every aspect of life, especially for women in their mid-thirties to sixties. We explore the concept of living your personhood rather than just your title, whether it's as a mother, business owner, or any other role you may have.

Throughout our conversation, Shelley drops gems of wisdom about the significance of self-identification and the impact it has on personal fulfillment, relationships, and business success. We discuss the challenges many women face when transitioning through different life stages, such as empty nesting or redefining their roles.

And for all the incredible women out there – remember, you are not alone on this journey, and you have the power to Go Be Great!
