A Message for My Advice Givers!

The Path to Joy ·

2025/10/09

I don't love getting advice -- I don't even like self-help (Yes, this may be the most ironic statement I've ever written!). And I happen to think most people the same way.

Our Comparison Problem.

The Path to Joy ·

2025/09/25

Yes, I think we can all agree that 'comparison is the thief of joy.' But, we somehow make an exception for comparison to our past selves.

Can we talk about an alternate reality for a moment? I know we primarily live in a very pragmatic reality where there's laundry to do and toilets to clean and money is a limited resource.

So, today, let's chat about that alternate reality! Thanks so much for listening! I love helping people change (and improve!) their perception of their lives -- aka

What Would it Feel Like??

The Path to Joy ·
