Ep #52: Are You Making Yourself a Priority?
I’m always amazed at how many of us, myself included, habitually put ourselves on the back burner. We’re so good at prioritizing work, our spouse, kids, extended family, and friends, but seem to run out of time and energy when it comes to meeting our own needs.

Ep #48: The Power of Your Thoughts
Summer is starting to quieten down, and while I appreciate the time for decompression, it’s interesting that I have a tendency to overthink when things get quiet. I’m sure you can relate. When we’re crazy busy, everything seems more normal, and we think we operate at our best when we’re juggling a lot of balls.…
