Are you experiencing expectation hangover? Christine Hassler left her successful job as a Hollywood agent at 25 to pursue a life she could be passionate about . . . but it did not come easily. After being inspired by her own unexpected challenges and experiences, she realized her journey was indeed her destination.
Now she is the author of three books, her newest Expectation Hangover: Overcoming Disappointment in Work, Love and Life. It is the guidebook for how to treat disappointment on the emotional, mental, behavioral and spiritual levels. She shares her expertise in an incredibly inspiring podcast that I recommend downloading and labeling: “For Emergencies, Press Play”.
