About Chari
Chari is a wife and a mother to 4. After having her twins she feel into the mommy zombie mode.
She spent so much time taking care of her twins that she had lost her identity.
After finding her way out of this rut she began making jewelry and selling it on Etsy.
Later she started speaking at events. And got back to her gift of poetry.
Here are the main takeaways from this episode:
- Take time for yourself. Even if it is just for 5 minutes in the day to do something only you want to do.
