This week we’re getting our hands dirty with the 5th letter of the PASSION acronym, I: Inspect Your Roots, as we explore the importance of shifting our focus from superficial fruit flaunting to foundational root inspection.
What happens beneath the surface will always, eventually, be reflected above the surface. While digging in the dirt to nurture and anchor your “root system” isn’t glamorous or sexy, it’s essential to the overall health of your life and the eventual health of your “fruit”.

The WRP believes in the power of being ‘otherly’ and aims to make kindness fun and simple by providing designer cards with love bombs (aka. uplifting words) that you can leave in random places to encourage and affirm others.
Question:
