Journaling is a simple, yet powerful activity that can have a big impact on your well-being.

I came to some pretty heavy realizations after a work event in Nashville, and I wanted to share my insights with my listeners who may be dealing with their OWN social media ..read more

It's all about picking and choosing what you focus on, and how selective attention / ego can sometimes help but often harm it. It gets in the way of focusing on what really matters, but also that we can miss some of the most OBVIOUS (and important!) things if our minds aren't in ..read more
