Episode Notes

We are approaching the end of another year. A year I’m sure that was mixed with ups and downs but we are here, in this present moment, together taking time to fuel and train our minds. This I’m incredibly grateful for. 

 

It’s also a time of year where we naturally slow down and have more space to reflect. I wanted to share the most popular episode (#36) from the podcast of all time - Taking Control Of Your Day With Jake Knapp. It’s fitting for this time of year as Jake leaves many great insights and practices that can help as you go through your reflection. 

 

Two great journaling prompts: 

  1. Does this feel right in my heart? 
  2. If I was going to die in a year, how would I spend my time?

Thanks as always for listening and have the best day yet!⠀
