About this episode

We're in the middle of January right now and if you're like most of us, you're probably already giving up on some of your well-intentioned resolutions that you set on New Year's Eve. That's completely normal, even though it's likely disappointing. This week on the show, I'm going to give you a whole new way to think about accomplishing your goals: Making Change from the Adult Chair. Through visualization, meditation, journaling and so much more, you're going to find the intrinsic motivation that will drive you to set realistic goals and then meet them with clear mind, heart, and spirit!
