One of the challenges is for the people who are looking for the service to be able to trust the genuine gifts and the practice that the person is offering. I tend to not see challenges. I tend to look at it as opportunities to grow and pivot.

Integrity, for sure. I try to live from a place of authenticity, and when I interact with people I always come from a place of non-judgment and with a lens of unconditional love.
