Is more always better? It's tempting to believe. It's easy to get caught up in always striving to be more and achieve more, but when we're constantly chasing after the next best thing, it becomes impossible to savor the moment.

This week on The Portfolio Life I have the privilege of interviewing one of my favorite writers: Shauna Niequist. Shauna and I talk about the life of a writer and the pull to do many things, as well as the discipline of soaking up every moment.

Sometimes the fear of missing out pushes us to overdo it. But when we constantly chase more, it becomes impossible to enjoy the everyday moments. Savoring requires discipline, and sometimes saying "no" to good things so that you can live at a pace that allows you enjoy life.

Listen in as we talk about learning to pay attention and her new devotional Savor.
