In this Episode Cindy shares how one smell gave her the best gift. Then her daughter Lauren joins her on the porch for a touching conversation on the why and how to for creating an intentional, meaningful "smell track" for your life that will help you feel joy and happiness even through your most challenging times.

In this episode we discuss the emotional highs and lows of one of the most conflicted holidays of the year -- love it or hate it -- it's Valentine's Day -- and we are here to put it all into perspective.

In this episode I share a story about one of our favorite made up holidays -- Leif Erikson Day. Then in an unedited, humorous discussion with my daughters Lauren and Hannah we explore how this tradition began, why it endures and why we think everyone should celebrate at least one made up holiday.

My favorite moment? Revisiting the "no tv" time in our lives and what we did for entertainment -- "Papa was that funny?" -- so hilarious!

Enjoy and I hope you get a few giggles from listening.
