July 14, 2022 A Minimalist tries Bullet Journaling | Is it worth it?
Bullet journaling is intimidating at first. I always loved the idea, but I could never figure out how to get past the first blank page. Taking inspiration from this podcast, I decided it was better to start messy than to never start at all. I share my experience diving into the BuJo community in this episode.

July 07, 2022 How to Live Life By Design | The Einstein Principle
EUREKA! Einstein made significant scientific discoveries. How can Einstein teach us to accomplish more by doing less? Or how do we plan like Genghis Khan to overcome the obstacles of our life? Modern life is full of distractions and people telling us what we should do or who we should be. Perhaps we should learn from the past and plan our lives on purpose.

June 23, 2022 Slow Down You're Moving Too Fast
SLOW DOWN! We aim to finish our never-ending to-do lists, but we never seem to have enough time. We feel stuck in life as we don't have time to slow down. But we have to slow down to check the direction of our life's GPS. We reverse the areas of our life that should be slow and speed up the things that should be savored and enjoyed.
Join me as we look at lyrics from Jack Johnson and Lin-Manuel Miranda to help us live a more meaningful life.
