"I remember going to get my final decree at the courthouse and it was a little overwhelming. I cried for what was, and what was to come next. Even though I had no idea what the future held or looked like, I knew there was a magical road ahead and I was anxious to start down that path. My darkest days were meant for a new beginning, and I could not truly appreciate the new life I have now without those times. Each step forward will help you feel freer and allow you to heal. One step and one day at a time. You’ve got this!" - Carly Golias, CDFA®, AIF®
