Happiness in Progress

#140 The 'Not To Do' List | Reducing Overwhelm & How to Prioritize feat. Alana Dawson


Listen Later

"Rarely was I focused on the quality rather than the quantity because I was trying to make the most people happy, trying to say 'yes' to as many things as possible - over extending myself, over extending my family. My poor family didn’t get the best of me. They got the last little chopped up slivers that were left over. By allowing myself to focus on those few things - the quality for sure is much better." - Alana Dawson

Alana Dawson is a growth podcast coach and the host of The Podcasting Party Podcast. She is a military spouse, mama to two daughters & one French Bulldog.

Danielle loved talking with Alana - she says she laughed, cried and felt inspired.
