    21 - How We Vision a Life, Not Just Set Goals with Tristan Weber

    Today’s guest is my better half, Tristan Weber. We’ve been married for 22 years, which is longer than we spent solo before that. For the past few years, we’ve made it a point to take an anniversary trip together. We design this trip to facilitate a reflection on our previous year and time to build a vision together for the next. This past year, we also brought in a human design expert to do a couple’s reading, and what she told us had an impact on how we see ourselves, each other, and our family as a whole. In this episode we’ll explore… What we prioritize on our anniversary and why it’s important to us.Our happiest place on earth and why we love to go there together.What initially promoted our visioneering trips and how it grew from there.What we do to keep our anniversary trips structured and where we allow flexibility.The things we have in common as a couple and how that shapes our marriage.The perks of travelling in the off season to busy destinations.How we break down our calendars to avoid overcommitting in the future.Why it’s important to assess the previous year before moving onto the next.The human design session we did together (and why we wished we’d done it sooner).How getting permission to be who God designed us to be impacts our lives.The human design types of our whole family and how that shows up in real life.What we walked away with from our last trip and how we loop in our kids.Why core values are a critical part of building and maintaining a strong family.
