How to Find Contentment in the Midst of Disappointment
About this episode
Have you ever *almost* accomplished something, only for it to fall apart at the end?
Maybe you *almost* got that dream job, but then you found out they went with a different candidate. Or maybe you thought you found “the one” and you *almost* got married, but instead it ended in a bad breakup
Or maybe the finish line just keeps moving, so you never really get to where you want to be.
In this episode, Jordan digs into what we do when we’re faced with unmet expectations and life doesn’t look like we thought it would.
And this isn’t just any old episode, friend. Jordan’s sharing a sneak peek as she reads you the beginning of her new book, Embrace Your Almost!
