Feeling pulled in too many directions? This week on These Are Good Days, we're talking about the revolutionary act of saying no. It’s about more than just managing your schedule; it's about honoring your values and protecting your precious, finite time. Discover why saying no is an essential step to gaining clarity and achieving life balance. Whether you're setting healthy boundaries or simply being authentic, learning to decline one thing means you can confidently say yes to the things that truly bring you joy. Tune in for an encouraging, honest chat about owning your time and doing what really matters.

THE SHOW NOTES

We would love to see you at our next LIVE event! It's going to be an awesome weekend in Ohio's Amish Country and Downtown Wooster. They'll be incredible giveaways, food from Walnut Creek Cheese, and we want you in the room when we record a podcast, LIVE. All the details can be found here.

Let's be real—life is way too short and too heavy to be serious all the time! We're talking about embracing whimsy: that perfect mix of taking your job and life seriously, but definitely not taking yourself seriously. We'll chat about simple ways to lighten up, like genuinely playing with your family or finally making time for that weird little hobby you love. Whimsy isn't just a mood; it’s a hack! It keeps your brain sharp, puts some distance between you and your problems, and helps you connect with people on a deeper, better level. Time to chill out, laugh more, and remember that being a little silly is a sign of a life well-lived.

Our words have the power to speak life or death - not only to others, but to ourselves. We've all been there - the mantras of self doubt and the cycle of shamed thinking. But, what happens when we break those patterns for ourselves, and how does that impact our relationship with others? Where do our words come from anyways? Join us in this conversation all about the life or death that comes through our words.
