Today we had the pleasure of welcoming Lori Saitz in a really passionate exploration of meditation and how it supports our overall goals in life. We de-bunk myths about meditation ("I should be doing this", "I'm not good at it", "I don't have time", and more. Lori shares how meditation can help re-wire your brain, giving opportunity to tune into your own awareness and to find your own inner voice, rather than what others say you should be doing.

We also touch on when affirmations are helpful, or when they are teetering on toxic positivity or unhelpful in some other way. We wrap up by emphasizing that, despite the message in society, hard work is not the only factor in reaching success.
