In this first season, Clarissa has had so many great guests and we hope you enjoyed it! This week, she wanted to give a special end of year bonus and tackle it herself. In the first solo episode, she shares how she created the chaos of 2020(whoops) with her word of the year and how that played out. Her reflections on how God walked with her through the changes are heartwarming. She also shares her end of year tradition and how it can help you best prepare for 2021.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
