My mom has taught me some really important things like:
Don't look for the shortest line, look for the fastest cashier
and
You don't want a marriage, you want a wedding
and so much more.

I'm sharing 10 of my favorite life lessons that my mom has taught me in the last 40 years.

Ep 219: 10 Things My Mom Taught Me

Ally Fallon is an author, ghostwriter, and book coach, which means she is exquisitely qualified to share tips on writing your story.
It doesn't matter if you plan to publish the story you want to tell, or just need to get it out onto the page for yourself, the insight she shares in this episode is so valuable. I also love following Ally on IG and have pointed my own journaling students towards her book The Power of Writing It Down.
Her new book is called Write Your Story: A Simple Framework to Understand Yourself, Your Story, and Your Purpose in the World and it's out now!

Sunday Stillness: The Old You and the Current You

The best episodes are book episodes and I am THRILLED to be joined for this edition of Best Books Lately by an author I have read and admired for years: R. Eric Thomas
In this conversation, Eric and I discuss his new book Congratulations, The Best Is Over and also how he found his distinct writing voice. And then, of course, we each share a few of the best books we've read lately. We laugh, we fan out, and we talk about great books.
