Always Sunday

Today is going to be an easy day for me. I have a couple of meetings with the team during the day and then a meetup at Disneyland in the evening. Oh, and swag!

Yesterday was another big day traffic day for the podcast so I thought I would give you all some insights into the topics and shows I'm working on and how I record my episodes. At the time of recording this episode, I have 20+ shows in some stage of planning.

Looking back I can see the most growth when I've worked on projects for myself — projects where I was invested in them and built around goals and internal pressures rather than external. Only then have I have honestly been able to push myself beyond my limits and grow within my field.

‪Today I talk about trying to make the right decisions. When you get deep into a project there are times when you need to push and grind it out, and there are times when you have to slow down and take a step back. That's what I did this weekend. ‬

Today I want to talk about this shorter format and why I decided to include it this season. It's only the 3rd episode, but I hope you're enjoying the new season so far.

Happy New Year! Here's a short update on me, what my year was like, and what I'm looking forward to this year.

It was a slow weekday morning. I sat quietly at my desk with a cup of coffee in front of me while I watched my inbox download my email just like I did every morning- 15, 25, 50, 100… 172 emails. And while I should have started prioritizing them, instead, I sat there. My mind wandered down a path I hadn’t explored before. I asked myself, is what I’m doing worth it? Am I fulling my purpose? What *is* my purpose?
