Remember to Live Corean Canty

Reflection time!!

I started this year with a vision for my life, my businesses and this podcast. I had no idea how much I would learn, grow and change over the past 12 weeks.

They say if you want to make God laugh, tell Her your plans...

First she laughed. Then she said, no - BIGGER.

These past 12 episodes have taught me so much about myself, my audience, my community and what we are all craving - more life! 

I've also learned how stuck many of us are feeling in the lives we've created so far. The desire to gain clarity about what a good life means to each of us individually and how we can learn so much from each other. 

Join me as I share the nuggets of insight and wisdom I've gained and the inspiration and vision I have for the future. I'm being called to go bigger, go deeper and dive into what it really means to live a life and live it well.

I have some amazing new guests, experiences and special surprises in store for this amazing community. But first, we will be taking a mini break as we get ready to leap into the next level of Remember(ing) to Live.

Take a listen, enjoy and we will be back soon!

In the meantime, be the first to know about all the good things coming up and stay inspired to show up to your life everyday with our free 30 Day Fill Your Cup First Challenge! Spend the next 30 days exploring ways to fill your cup first before pouring into everyone else.

Do you remember that big dream you had as a kid? Did it ever come true?

I abandoned mine for a long time as I was busy being a responsible adult and doing what I was "supposed" to do.

But I brought it back last week as I took the leap and invested the most money, time and focus on myself that I ever have. A whole week focused on just me - in a luxurious place, living out my childhood dream. 

Take a listen and find out what I learned. I hope you get inspired to dust your dream off and take the leap too.

Happy 10th Episode!!

I'm in the season of life where I celebrate the wins - big and small - so in honor of the 10th episode, we will explore 10 ways to add more happiness to our lives. 

This podcast (and how I live my life) was inspired by the book 'The Top Five Regrets of the Dying' and watching people I love with these regrets up close and personal. One of these top 5 is "I wish I would have let myself be happier." 

So here's to us all finding more happiness each day. 

We will explore simple habits we can create to bring more joy.  Habits like choosing happiness, being present, getting outside, connecting with others, moving your body, trying new things, resting, playing, smiling, and practicing gratitude.
