Let’s talk about the power of theme words!

It’s my 39th birthday! This solo episode is about the reflection and intention-setting practices I engage with every September. I explore theme words that have guided me, the interplay of my yearly tarot card, and the practices I want to focus on during Quarter 4. Curious about choosing your own theme word for the next year, month, project, week, or day? I close out today’s episode with tangible tools for finding and committing to your own.

Here are some of the things I cover:

• How theme words and metaphors can simplify decision making
• My journey to selecting a theme word for 39, “Again”
• Tarot as a tool for reflection and choosing guiding themes
• Four practices I want to focus on this year
• Practical steps for finding your own theme word
