Michael Blankenship wants you to know that he gets it if you're tired, you're burnt out and you're sick of doing the same thing every day, quickly marching toward a grave stone with nothing interesting written on its face.

1697: Surround Yourself With Good and That's How You Will Feel AND Over-Planning Kills Magic by Katie Ping
Katie Ping of More Of What Matters Blog talks about why surrounding ourselves with good will help us feel good AND how over-planning kills the magic.
Episode 1697: Surround Yourself With Good and That's How You Will Feel AND Over-Planning Kills Magic by Katie Ping
Katie Ping is a small-town writer, yogi, and mama who values simplicity. She spent decades of her life people-pleasing and drowning in guilt and shame over parts of her that she thought were unworthy. By her late-20s, she found herself passionless and riddled with anxiety - and she knew she needed a change. Instead of creating a multi-layered plan on how to attain more peace, she started small - with a walking meditation practice. Those 15 minutes of strolling in silence down a tree-lined residential street led her to where she is today - facing her fears of imperfection and doing it anyway.

1673: Moonlit Bubbles, Spooky Mangroves and Sleeping Iguanas by Bradley Charbonneau of Pass The Sour Cream
Bradley Charbonneau of Pass The Sour Cream shares a story of moonlit bubbles, spooky mangroves and sleeping iguanas.
Episode 1673: Moonlit Bubbles, Spooky Mangroves and Sleeping Iguanas by Bradley Charbonneau of Pass The Sour Cream
Bradley Charbonneau's dad died in 2015 and it was as if, for the first time, that he realized we were mortal and had only this life to live. Unless you're a cat, but he wasn't a cat and he wasn't living the life he thought that he was supposed to live. Since then, he's been writing. Every Single Day. Bradley's now published 12 books, closed down the company he founded (and realized he hated), and moved his family to Europe. It doesn't cost him energy, it provides him with energy. Every Single Day. It all started with a single decision to write every day. When are you going to start living the life you were meant to live?

Episode 1669: Connecting Through Simplicity AND Are You Living Your Highest, Best Life? by Kristine Klussman on Simple Living
Kristine Klussman specialized in Health Psychology (Behavioral Medicine) at Harvard Medical School, then founded and ran the Health Psychology program and post-doctoral training programs at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco. She found her work with cancer and cardiac patients inspiring, uplifiting, and humbling. She found so many of those going through life-threatening illness were - sometimes for the first time in their lives - absolutely clear what truly mattered to them: authenticity and connection. In 2016, she founded a non-profit to focus full-time on trying to understand, explain and teach what she now believes is the single most meaningful and rewarding aspect of our existence.

1655: The Greatest Secret to Productivity That No One is Talking About by Courtney Carver of Be More With Less
Courtney Carver of Be More With Less shares the greatest secret to productivity that no one is talking about.
Episode 1655: The Greatest Secret to Productivity That No One is Talking About by Courtney Carver of Be More With Less
Courtney Carver was stopped in her tracks with a scary MS diagnosis after decades of debt, discontent, and trying to do it all. She had to slow down, prioritize her health, and figure out what was really important in her life. She discovered what mattered most by getting rid of everything that didn’t matter at all. In the end it all came down to love and health.
She went from a busy, overwhelmed advertising director to spending 2-3 hours every morning taking care of herself, loving her work, and being present and engaged with the people she loves. Her family changed, too. They moved from wanting bigger closets, nicer furniture, and more stuff to downsizing into a 750 sq. ft apartment with no storage.
Courtney has written books, courses, and hundreds of articles to help you simplify your life and work so you can focus on what really matters.
