Choosing Happiness: Lessons in Living Authentically from a "Smile Creator" with Anneli Johansson

Breakfast of Choices

Welcome to another episode of Breakfast of Choices. Today, I have Guest Anneli Johansson, who is a Strategic Life Coach who chooses to see life on the bright side. From a childhood marked by her mother's struggles with mental health and attempted suicide, to finding her own inner strength and resilience, Anneli's story encourages us all to live a happier life.
Anneli shares how she learned to navigate the challenges of her upbringing, often feeling like she had to be the "mom" to her own mother. This led her to become a people-pleaser, always putting others first. But through her travels and personal development work, Anneli discovered her true self - a brave, adventurous spirit unafraid to follow her passions.
Hearing about Anneli's solo trips to Australia, Costa Rica, and Malawi is truly inspiring. She didn't let fear hold her back, and instead embraced the unknown, learning and growing along the way. Her work as a "smile creator" is a testament to the power of positivity and how a simple gesture can make a big difference.
Anneli's journey is a reminder that no matter where we start, we all have the capacity for incredible growth and transformation. Her willingness to be vulnerable and share her story is sure to resonate with listeners who may be facing their own challenges. I'm honored to have had the chance to connect with Anneli and hear her empowering message.
