Atomic Habits by James Clear

Today on Live Well Anyway (formerly Cultivating the Lovely), MacKenzie is back on with Katie to talk about an episode that they did a few weeks back and how it surprisingly helped Katie shift perspective on some big things. They talk about the peaks and valleys that are a natural part of life and how to submit to those changes while still choosing to live well instead of getting stuck. Katie talks about where she had been placing her identity and how she remembered that the purpose of education in her home was to reach her children’s hearts for Christ. MacKenzie and Katie share the practical ways she is implementing this philosophy of putting relationships and hearts first.
