After a year of nonstop business focus, I finally picked up a tool I bought ages ago—my Dremel—and rediscovered the joy of creating. In this episode, I share the journey of returning to my jewelry-making hobby, how unexpected downtime turned in...

How I went from all work and no play to finding joy again.

I talk about how following my own advice to use the Winter Solstice as a time to review and then look forward upped my motivation and led to detailing out plans that I want to pursue. I include my goal setting format.

I describe my journey through a stressful time, including a chicken story, and how I managed through it all. This relates to how I see my role as a counselor to others.

I discuss how a twinge of jealousy got me moving on something I had neglected for a long time.
