What I'm thinking about
Starting to spend time to reflect on 2017 and setting intentions for 2018 and Ayse Birsel's workbook 'Design the Life You Love' is a good and fun process to activate that thinking. Listen to Ayse's story and how and why she created this creative process and workbook in the recent episode of The Role Models Podcast.
What else?!
Happy holidays to you and your family! Thanks for reading Friday's Five.
