John wrote that he wanted to be happy. The teacher told him he didn’t understand the assignment. John told her she didn’t understand life. Julia contends that being happy is a choice. She continues that having an attitude of gratitude coupled with compassion is uplifting and life-changing. Finding aspects of life that are empowering and help further life goals and wants are key. Julia lives a full-out, energetic and purposeful life. She brings her love of life to the show. Find out how to get your mojo back and to live a life with zeal.
