#400 - How to Feel Satisfied with Your Celebrations
Celebrations are strangely complicated. Sometimes we shy away from them, especially if we’re celebrating something about ourselves. Other times we have them but feel pressure to celebrate a certain way, to make everything as sparkly and memorable as possible. I’m not promising that you’ll never feel disappointed with your celebrations again, but I do think there’s a lot of room to feel greater satisfaction when we mark our moments.
Side note: This our 400th episode!! Kind of fun to talk about celebrating on the 400th episode. 🎉

#399 - It’s a New Year… Let’s Name What’s Working
The beginning of the year or the beginning of anything often has us rethinking our routines and rhythms and systems and choices to see if there’s anything we want to change. Before you start to put on your problem-solving glasses, utilizing that new year energy to make everything fresh and ready to begin, let’s name what’s working. I have three rules, three questions, and three categories to help you think this through.

#396 - What’s on My Someday List
I talk about the concept of The Someday List in my most recent book, The PLAN, and it’s something I came up with as a reframe of goals and dreams. Instead of changing my thinking in order to make goals and dreams work or ignoring them altogether, I changed the phrasing and posture to more fully align with how I personally view my life and time. And that reframe is The Someday List.
