“Happiness is never achieved because it’s always pursued. That happiness is unattainable because it’s the wrong mindset.”

Welcome back, friend! We’re in week two of a multi-part series about the four pillars of Living Lighter: home, mind, body, and soul.

Today’s episode is about happiness, mindset, “shiny object syndrome,” and grit. Do you struggle to appreciate what you do accomplish instead of dwelling on everything you didn’t get done? (Looking at you, Enneagram 1s & 3s 👀) I totally get it. I’ve been there. And let me just say, a simple yet powerful mindset shift can transform your outlook on life. So let’s dive in and learn how to live lighter together!

In this episode you’ll hear: 

🧠 Why the pursuit of happiness does not equal happiness

🧠 How to live in “the gain” instead of “the gap
🧠 Handling hard better and developing grit
