A welcome breath of self-care

I only just discovered this podcast, so I'll be going back and starting at the beginning soon. What a great way to spend an hour or so. I've long been a fan of Lani Diane Rich's podcasts, but this one may be my favorite. She and Dr. Kelly Jones make a great pair and I'm so happy to have many hours of them ahead of me.

Two smart women, three great books combine to propel you to be a better you. I am redefining my career and this podcast has been a road map as I set a new course.

I recommend (& have to multiple friends) this podcast to anyone going through big changes in their lives.
