087. The Seven Best Lessons 2020 Taught Me

Welcome to Zimmerman Podcast Episode 87.

Today, I’m sharing what my biggest takeaways from 2020 are.

Part of my annual planning process is reflecting on the past year, and so that’s what I’m doing today with you. I’m going to reflect on 2020 so I can identify what I learned last year and how I can carry that into 2021, which we’re all hoping will be a more normal year.

I’m hoping that these seven lessons I learned in 2020 will serve me well in 2021, and that they’ll encourage you as we flip the calendar to a new month and a new year.

Episode 87 Topics:
- How to hold expectations with open hands instead of closed fists
- Why it’s important to be flexible with goals and plans
- What it looks like to embrace seasons of rest
- How to enjoy creating for the process, not just the product
- How to embrace gratitude to manifest the life you want to live

Episode 87 Product Picks:

Sleeping with a Stranger
Sleeping with a Stranger is officially available everywhere books are sold in hardcover, paperback, ebook, and audiobook. Since the book’s launch, I’ve been amazed by how it has been received. From being named a best seller by USA Today, the Wall Street Journal, Amazon and Barnes & Noble to incredibly personal and touching reviews from my amazing readers, it’s been such a wild journey!

Here’s one of my favorite reviews…

“I love the honesty of this book. It is real and raw and doesn't hold back; and that is why it is so mesmerizing. I could relate on so many levels and I know it must've been so hard to write about many of these very personal and taboo topics. I couldn't put the book down, it was such an easy and enlightening read. I highly recommend this to anyone who is soul searching or just looking for some perspective. Truth is better than fiction!”

I can’t wait to share this story with you! To get your copy, go to https://jessicazimmerman.com/sleeping-with-a-stranger today or wherever books are sold.

Lea Black CBD Skincare
In all the years I’ve been showing up online, teaching business education webinars or sharing about my life in Instagram stories, there’s one question I get more than ANY OTHER:

What skincare do you use???

For years, I had a pretty disappointing answer: a bar of soap.

But as I started prioritizing my own wellness and stopped feeling guilty for investing time in taking care of myself physically, mentally, and emotionally, I knew I needed to up my skincare game.

Enter Lea Black skincare.

While I love literally every Lea Black skincare product I’ve tried, my favorite by far is the CBD Soothing Eye Cream, which can make me look rested and energized even after late nights up with the kids or prepping for a new course launch. I’m convinced that the CBD infused cream makes my eyes look bright and smooth, and I swear it even makes me feel more awake.

Whether I’m hitting the road with my family, preparing for a day of Zoom meetings, or getting a full face of makeup on to do some book press, I’m so thankful to be using products that really work.
