In today’s episode (and inspired by her recent girls’ trip!), I share 6 practices to help you think through your big picture goals and dreams. This episode feels relevant as we gear up for Reflection Season and starting to think about annual planning for…
1- Weeknd Follow Up. You guys! I feel incredibly inspired by your comments and we even had a good chat this morning on the way to school about things to do this weekend. (G is studying monarch butterflies in school so wanted to go…
