In this episode Edie DeVilbiss discusses:

- From being a 9-1-1 dispatcher for 14 years to being cranky, fat, and cynical to finally seeking help and now living her best and blissful life coaching people on how to "shape good habits". - Her experience of being in therapy and what it taught her. - What forgiveness means to her now. - How meditation changed her life and what meditation can do to your brain, mind, body, and spirit (it doesn't have to be a monk-like experience, but a visualization of simply letting go of your daily stressors). - How to shape good habits - 4 strategies to set new habits in place and how good habits can improve your well-being.

If you want to go places you have never been to before, you have to do things you haven't done before.
