Summary
On this episode of Mere Mortals Unite, we interview Laurie Guest, a farmer’s daughter who has taken charge of her life. She is an incredible wife and mother as well as a successful author and speaker. Laurie has found the importance of creating contentment, discovering what it is that allows us mere mortals to find a space that is all our own. Join us to find practical ways to find this path for yourself.
You’ll discover:
How Laurie describes her superpower. Why it’s important to craft contentment for yourself. How to figure out your own benchmark of success. Why you must practice “strategic disengagement.” The importance of writing down your immediate and long-term goals. How to fit a personal retreat into your schedule. Why your moment of transformation doesn’t have to be earth-shattering. How and why to practice “theme living.” Laurie’s system for saying “no” to commitments. The difference between joy and contentment.
