challenges and difficulties

Holly Valance takes her personal relationships so seriously that they may seem more like work, constant effort, and compromise, rather than a free and enjoyable sharing.

Holly Valance needs to take what she has learned (either through formal education or her own questing and life experience) and share it with others, communicate it or express it in a way that can benefit others.

Putting Valance's understanding, philosophy, and convictions into practice in her daily relationships, and in the multiple choices she makes every day, will enable Holly Valance to really test her belief system and discover more about life.
