Have you ever had a quote or short essay completely change how you look at something?

Whether it's gaining awareness about something new or looking at an old problem through a new lens, seeing and hearing other's perspectives can change our hearts and minds for better or for worse sometimes.

In today's episode, I want to focus around a central subject about how you feel in your body and the many factors that can contribute to that feeling.

I want to share one of my favorite books recently titled, "101 Essays That Will Change the Way You Think" by Breanna West and specifically share 18 short passages from this book and give you my interpretation of what they mean.

Please let me know if you have a favorite one and Happy New Year!
