This week Lisa whisked us all away to Italy to help us remember the important things in life, slowing down, nurturing and strengthening relationships and listening to our intuition. Here are my five favorite takeaways from this week's conversation with the author of I found myself in Tuscany, Lisa Condie

1. Lisa talks about the importance of travel and how sometimes when we get lost we can find our self in the process. Is there a day trip you have been meaning to take, a museum that you have been longing to visit or maybe a restaurant that serves a cuisine you have yet to taste? In the next few days can you step out of the familiar and explore a new town, a new restaurant a new culture?
2. Lisa spoke about putting her dream out into the world. Is there a dream that has become a yearning in your life?
   1. Can you share your dream with three people you trust?
   2. Is there one action step you can take to move yourself closer to making your dream a reality?
   3. What do you need to learn or whom do you need to ask for help to move closer to your dream?
   4. Sign up for the lesson, reach out to that person and begin to ask for help
3. Lisa spoke about how the Italians cultivate their relationships with face-to-face time versus face time. How they nurture their friendships and relationships and take the time to build trust over coffee and a handshake versus contracts and a computer. Is there a relationship in your life that you could tend to? Be it with family, friends or business partners. What is something you can do over the next few days to cultivate and strengthen that partnership?
4. Lisa revealed that it was not until recently that she had become her best friend. How is your relationship with your inner self? Can you have a date night? Take yourself out to dinner or a movie? Turn off the TV and take a bath and read. Shut off the noise, get quiet, and begin to tune into what you and your heart need.

5. Lisa mentioned that she recently learned to slow down and hear her soul speak? Whether you call it your intuition, a sign or just a feeling? When is the last time you slowed down, sat still long enough to hear your soul speak? If your soul were to speak to you what would be the first thing he or she would say?
