983. How To Celebrate Milestones

It’s my birthday this week! Birthdays are a chance to check in — plus we’re coming up on the new year — so we are touching base on where I am at and where I want to go in the coming year. In this episode of He Said She Said, Chris asks me some reflection questions that we encourage you to emulate (either for yourself or with your partner).

It is important to acknowledge milestones and make them feel celebratory. 41 was the toughest year of my life and looking back with the help of these questions, I can see that it simultaneously made me the proudest that I’ve ever been.

981. 6 Thoughts That Will Transform Your Life

Recently I had an experience that opened my eyes to the results I want to be getting from my life. The big lesson and the big takeaway left me wishing I would have paused and reacted slower. And, as always, the most valuable lessons are usually the most painful. I learned that before I say “yes” to things, I really have to think about how intentional I want to get this coming year.
