5 years ago, Sharon Crawford was a busy online entrepreneur supporting spiritual messengers in getting their message out to a global audience. In addition to hosting 3 telesummits of her own, she was training others to host theirs and helping them to build their online presence via  consulting and private healing sessions.

​Fast forward to the end of 2015. Financially,  she was just getting by, living in a repressed area and  trying to hold on to a  house that was in need of  major repairs. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't  improve her living situation.  She had hit rock bottom. Although her spiritual development work taught her about the power of gratitude and gave her the ability to get into a good-feeling place, she knew things needed to change.  There had to be more to life than a pervasive sense of emptiness and numbness  So, overwhelmed by debt and a life that had become much too small, she let go of 80 % of her possessions and dropped her house keys in the mail, leaving her home to the bank. She  decided that living a life of joy would be her main priority going forward which would also mean overcoming her fears and taking a big leap of faith into the unknown.

2016 was very different for Sharon. A year of travel, discovery, new friends and a lot of hiking in the Alps. She experienced some personally challenging yet extremely powerful opportunities for growth.  After being in  spiritual development for 2 decades and in  personal development  for  3 decades, she always knew she had her own message to share. In the beauty of a garden in the French alps while doing the mundane  work of sanding and painting  shutters, she began to receive inspiration.

​In this interview, you will learn how even when there  seems to be no obvious solution to the circumstances you are in, there is reason to hope. Often by having the courage to surrender while making firm decisions about what you want to experience in your life, the "how" starts to unfold.  As Sharon so aptly described her experience near the end of our chat​, 
 "There was no way I  every had any clue of how much I would gain by letting so much go."
