About this episode
Kendra discusses the practice of recognizing and appreciating the good things in life that make it lighter and easier.
This is a phrase popularized by Barbara Brown Taylor, and it’s a simple question that helps you notice and contentedly appreciate where you are right now. What’s saving your life right now? My list is pretty light-hearted this season, but no matter what is on your list or mine, the practice is what matters. Notice what is happening in your life, the good things that make it lighter, easier, or better, and celebrate them.
