In this episode we meet Gail Taylor, an individual that not only succeeded in recovering from the throws of addiction, but is now thriving in life afterwards!

Gail's perspective on life allowed her to not just recover from the difficult times, but ultimately reinvent herself into a multi-talented individual who uses their talents to uplift others.

Gail became a song-writer, musician, a public speaker, and an author, and she uses each and everyone of those skills together to share the guidance and tools that she learned to help herself become who she is today. In this episode we dive into all of those topics and discuss how they relate to her recently released book "Curveballs".
