Inside this episode, I’ll share a heartfelt (and if you’re a parent or grandparent - relatable) story about my recent experiences with my grandchildren and the delightful chaos that ensued during their visit. By tuning in, you'll gain valuable insights into how moments of overwhelm and decision fatigue can impact both your personal and professional life. I'll discuss the common distractions we all face, such as social media and emails, and highlight the importance of rest and focus to truly pursue our passions—in my case, writing a book.
You'll also hear about a very hard decision I’m making for this podcast to prioritize my creative endeavors.
My hope is, that this episode will inspire you to reflect on your own sources of overwhelm and empower you to make the necessary changes for a more fulfilling and balanced life. Don't miss out on this opportunity to find practical advice and encouragement for your own journey!
“It's so, so scary, but I know His gentle nudge is reminding me to just release my anxiety about the future year and just focus on today, focus on this present moment.” Sheri Miter
