More Than Checking Boxes, Rediscovering Your True Self
Episode description
The topic this week goes into a discussion on the importance of living authentically rather than just 'checking the boxes'. Dawn emphasizes the importance of living life for the experiences rather than ticking off to-do lists or comparing oneself to others on social media.
Dawn shares her personal experiences, including finding joy in seemingly ordinary life activities like receiving baby pigs and arranging a family trip to Disney. She discusses why we often get burnout and shares thoughts on mindful spending habits. Dawn also introduces the 'Ripple Effect' sessions she offers to help women who feel stuck establish what truly matters to them in their lifestyle.
