Märtha continued, “However big or small there is always something we can do to release patterns holding us back in our own systems and make the day a little bit better for someone around us. Use every opportunity to show up for others as you do to your self. With my amazing guy by my side, it couldn’t have been better. What difference have you made today? #youmatter #inspiring#starlite2019.”
