What do you want?  And is it okay to want what you want?  Two excellent, and telling, questions to ask yourself.  They were both posed by this week’s guest, Andrew Gumm.  As he has gotten older he has realized how much healthier it is to curb the people-pleasing and to find out what he wants, what he values, what is of importance to him.  It makes sense to me.  What would your answers be?

If you find yourself having to pivot, or choosing to make a big change, like moving, Andrew shares it’s better to be open-hearted, to be curious as you experience the newness, the differentness of your situation.  Don’t retreat for there are lessons to be learned, life to be lived, relationships to be cultivated, new challenges to be tackled.  And the sense of having met all of this will, no doubt, leave you with a deep sense of triumph.  So go ahead.  Throw yourself into it.

Andrew is a friend of the show and can be heard on the following: If Anything, Be Kind and Making Merry with Andrew and Greg.
