    The Life Edit: How to Live with Intention in a Messy World with Elisabeth Sharp McKetta, #94

    Today’s guest is Elisabeth Sharp McKetta - a mother, teacher, and writer - here to share her literary approach to intentionality with our podcast community. She teaches for the Harvard Extension School Writing Program, and Oxford University’s Diploma in Creative Writing as well as mentors a small group of writers each year through the Book Year Writer’s Circle.  Elisabeth faced combined autopilot-and-overwhelm early in her parenting journey, which sparked a big change. She moved into a tiny house with her husband and two children —an intentional act that inspired my TEDx Talk “Edit your life like a poem.” Her tiny house existence spurred her to apply her literary editing skills to life—a discipline she calls “life-editing.” Today she will be sharing “life-editing” insights and anecdotes from her personal growth guide Edit Your Life: A Handbook for Living with Intention in a Messy World (Penguin: TarcherPerigee, 2023) In the episode, we cover the following topics: Examine your life for what it is, what it could be, and what is needed Edit your life for clarity, growth, and generosity Enjoy your life, savoring the ordinary and accepting the exceptions  If you would like to venture further into Elisabeth’s writing, teaching, and speaking, you can do so at elisabethsharpmcketta.com. 💞Loving this podcast?

    5 Things To Be Afraid of This Halloween, #93

    🎃 5 Things to Be Afraid of This Halloween (and Every Day!): The Fear of Too Much Stuff: Declutter with intention! Physical clutter weighs on our minds and homes, creating invisible burdens. This Halloween, be brave—let go of what doesn’t bring true value. Phantoms of Lost Time: Time is precious, yet invisible “phantoms” like mindless scrolling and overcommitments steal it away. Reclaim your hours by being mindful of what fills your days. The Haunting of Comparison Curses: Social media can trick us into endless comparisons, making us feel we’re not enough. Break the spell and embrace your unique path to a simpler, more fulfilling life. The Spell of Mindless Spending: With sales around every corner, it’s easy to fall into impulse buying. Avoid the trap! Stick to what truly adds value and joy, and resist unnecessary spending. The Zombie Routine: Living on autopilot steals your joy and purpose. Snap out of the routine and reconnect with habits that bring meaning. Life is more than just going through the motions. This month, I’m also excited to distribute our second Let’s Slow Down newsletter! It’s a space for even more connection and insight. Sign up at⁠ letsslowdown.net⁠ for highlights, resources, and a deeper look into my journey of intentional living. 👻 Special Guest Offer Dr. Heather Penny, from ⁠Episode 87⁠, is generously offering her course The Life You’re Made For free through December!

    Choosing Bold: From Burnout to Thriving with Leigh Burgess, #91

    My guest today is the incredible Leigh Burgess. I was so inspired by our conversation, and I hope you are, too. After over 20 years in healthcare and business, Leigh went on her own to build Bold Industries Group (BIG), an organization that encompasses her passion for tackling big challenges that when solved, make the world a better place. Her mission is to help leaders solve problems for good. Leigh is a regular contributor to Forbes and Entrepreneur. She was honored as one of Success Magazine’s 125 Leaders Making a Difference and is currently nominated for Success 50 Women of Influence. She also hosts her own podcast called The Bold Lounge.  Leigh and I talk about her burnout in 2020, which led her to leave the corporate world and boldly go out into the world with her own business. She models the power of a growth mindset and has an outlook on life that is both inspiring and energizing. After re-aligning herself with her meaning and purpose, she got intentional in building a life she loves that allows her to live boldy and thrive. Lessons from Leigh: -Our late 40s can be an awakening if we just give ourselves a fresh perspective. -Happy isn’t a destination, it is a choice - a way of being in your own skin.  -Healing, nurturing and creating can help to find clarity. -Sometimes, you just need to know where to go next. You don’t always need to know A-Z. You don’t need to have it all figured out!  -Managing burnout isn’t a one and done, you need to constantly manage yourself because life goes fast. -Keep taking risks, being vulnerable, because there is so much strength to gain from those experiences. -Celebrate your wins! You can preorder Leigh’s book, Be BOLD Today, HERE. Connect with Leigh: LinkedIn and Website 💞Loving this podcast?
