Wednesday Oct 02, 2024
Wednesday Oct 02, 2024
Feeling like life is a bit of a slog at the moment?
Or maybe you feel like something is just 'missing' from your life and you're not as happy as you'd like to be?
Usually, there's a simple solution to this: you need to check-in with your values.
When we're not living life in alignment with our values then something tends to feel just a little bit 'off'.
We struggle for motivation, it feels like we're not doing what we're meant to do, and our levels of happiness suffer as a result.
So in this week's episode, we're going to solve that!
We're going to look at how to boost your happiness by Aligning with your Life Values.
Grab a cuppa, a pair of headphones and let's do it!
