You know the old phrase, 'You need to stop and smell the roses.' That's the basis for today's conversation. We get so wrapped up in our lives that we forget about those beautiful little things that surround us.
Cyndie Spiegel is the author of the book 'Microjoys: Finding Hope (Especially) When Life Is Not Ok.' She's gone through a lot since the start of the pandemic from deaths to cancer diagnoses. There was a year long span that would've crushed anyone, and no one would've blamed Spiegel if she had curled into a ball and spent her days crying. But that's not what she did. Instead she turned her focus to 'microjoys.' Spiegel started to open her eyes to the world around her and it was those little things that often go unnoticed that helped keep her sane during the hardest time in her life.
This is a very inspirational book and I think it can be helpful to anyone. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Cyndie Spiegel.
