A Quiet Life

What do you do when you’re just not meeting the goals that you set? This week’s podcast is bursting with different ideas to try. Plus a little baby news 🙂

As it is the middle of the year, Scottie and I are thinking about the goals we made back in January and how we’re going with them. The point is, it is just fine to change your goals if the situation changes, or even if you find that you set the bar too high. And […]
