About this episode

Hi friends! In today's solo episode, I talk about a new habit I have been doing this year that has really brought me tons of joy. 

It only takes me 5 min per day! I have noticed a change in how I perceive difficult moments with my kids and how mindful I am of small beautiful moments with my children.

Listen to this short episode to learn more about my new habit and to listen to the story of my 7-year-old daughter and how she pitched an idea of hers at one of my business meetings last week!

I hope you have a great week!
