In this episode I talk about how remembering the Pre-Existence can change us and help us have more charity. Did you know that was a gift you could ask for? The beauty is remembering our feelings from the Pre-Existence can help us to let go of pride and no longer be puffed up. I hope you will learn as much as I did in preparing. Love you all!!! —
