Beschreibung

In this episode, I reflect on The Measure by Nikki Erlick, a thought-provoking novel about what happens when every adult receives a box containing a string that reveals the length of their life.  While we don’t actually have visible strings telling us how much time we have, the book raises a powerful question: Are we living the life we truly want to live, or simply the life we have fallen into?  I explore why so many of us say “I don’t have time,” how we stay stuck in comfort zones we’ve outgrown, and how small, intentional changes can help us use our time more honestly and meaningfully.

Episode #127: You can’t 3D Print Growth

What if life worked like a 3D printer? You put in the plan, press print, and watch your vision become reality. It sounds amazing, but in this episode, we explore why the clean input-output version of life may not actually be the highest goal. So much of our growth happens when things do not go according to plan, when we are forced to adjust, regroup, learn, and begin again. This is where we meet our 2.0 version. Not the version we planned on becoming, but the version we become because life required more of us. In this episode, I talk about why the process matters, why mistakes and detours are not proof that something has gone wrong, and how the messy middle is often exactly where strength, resilience, confidence, and clarity are built.

Episode #126: Summer Needs Anchors, Not a Minute-by-Minute Plan

In this episode, I talk about why summer needs anchors, not a minute-by-minute plan. As we approach the summer season, it is easy to crave a slower pace, more downtime, and space to breathe, but too much unstructured time can quickly turn into wasted time, frustration, and a feeling that the season is just happening to us.  I share how creating a few simple anchors, something productive, something healthy, and something enjoyable or connecting, can help bring shape, intention, and calm to your summer without over-scheduling it.  Whether you have teens, younger kids, adult children visiting, or no kids at home, this episode will help you think about what you need this summer and how to plan for a season that feels healthier, calmer, and more connected.
