What if one simple word could transform your entire year—even your life?

Today on the podcast, I’m sharing the one word that has guided me on a year of some of the biggest changes of my life.

It’s not the kind of word you’d expect. 

When I first shared it with folks, I’d cringe.

I thought it was too soft and simple, that it couldn’t possibly hold the weight of the transformation I was hoping for. 

But as usual, the butterflies in my belly knew more than my mind could foresee.

In today’s episode you’ll hear gems on:

• How choosing a word of the year has been my compass for the last 5 years—and each year it just keeps getting richer
• The story of how this year I stepped into a 20-year dream come true—and the gems of wisdom collected in the process
• The key differences between muscling your way through change and magnetizing it with surrender and devotion
• Inspiration for choosing your own word of the year, and how to breathe life into it all year long

With love and wonder,
Mary
