Design the next 10 years of your life: Relationships, Health, and Finances.

About this episode

The episode discusses how to intentionally design the next decade of your life focusing on relationships, health, and finances.

Ten years from now, you're going to unwrap a gift, and that gift is the life you've built through the compounding effects of your decisions today. The question is: will it be something you're excited to open? Most people spend a lot of time planning a vacation, but give almost no thought to designing the life they will have a decade from now.
