Let's get real about life, love, joy, hardship, career, family, aging and everything in between. We are all here for a reason and I believe we should always keep learning how to find and follow that reason! Life is our greatest teacher, and it will keep teaching, even if we don't want to listen at times. So join me in this journey of life's lessons in the pursuit of learning how to have a better life, more fulfilling relationships and overall joy. Let's get real!
Today I am talking about getting so comfortable with your routine, life, schedule that you don't step out and do anything uncomfortable and new. I talked earlier this year about making a 2026 to-do list and bam... summer is over and I didn't even do ONE of the things on my list. I was fairly busy with the house clean out and estate duties, but that stuff is zero fun! My goal this week is to do one new, different or uncomfortable thing. Just one. And maybe that will give me the added confidence boost to keep going on the list! I challenge you to do the same and let's reconvene next week and compare notes!

E90 Mom's Refrigerator Soup
We are headed into the fall season and what is better in the fall than homemade soup? The other day I was wondering what to do with the various veggies in my fridge and remembered my mom's refrigerator soup. Every once in a while, Mom would say, "I need to clean out the fridge". This was great news since it meant we would be having refrigerator soup for dinner. The downside was she could never make the same soup twice. But that was part of its charm. It was one and done. As I made my soup today, standing in the same house where I cooked with my mom so many years ago, I was grateful for those memories. I thanked her for the skills she taught me in this very same place and for my delicious dinner that resulted from those skills. Take some time this fall to dig out an old recipe and make it. Better yet, make it with someone who will keep those past memories alive for future generations to come.

E89 Including others may be a blessing to you
Today's episode is about being aware of others and including them when we can. So many times, we find ourselves teaching our kids to exclude others because either we are afraid of their influence on them or we just want them all to ourselves. This is doing our kids a disservice. We need to teach them not only to notice others and be aware when someone is struggling, but to invite them in and make them feel at home. Our exclusivity can sometimes stifle what might bring about the best friendship or a really great connection.
