Choosing More Of What Matters

Ever feel the pressure to reinvent yourself by February? We’re choosing a better path. After a year marked by cancer and stacked medical emergencies, I’m done proving and ready to design a year that actually fits: slower travel, calmer mornings, kinder boundaries, and choices that honor energy, not ego. This isn’t about becoming someone new; it’s about becoming more of who you already are—on purpose.

We start with ease as a strategy. I’m taking a six-week road trip and breaking it into humane days so I arrive well, not wrecked. That mindset spills into work, home, and service. I share how we built systems for a record stewardship campaign at our cathedral and why I’m handing leadership on so others can thrive. Ease isn’t slacking; it’s intentional design that keeps the most important things front and center.

Peace gets a real definition here: fewer circular fights, slower replies, and acceptance of people as they are—especially the ones we love. We talk about joy shifting from big, performative moments to small, repeatable pleasures you can count on: a quiet coffee, a comfortable bed, a text from someone who knows your heart. Then we get honest about choosing yourself without guilt, receiving help when you need it, and learning what enough finally feels like—enough plans, enough stuff, enough proving.

If you’re craving a good year instead of a big year, you’re in the right place. Letting go created room; choosing wisely fills it with ease, peace, joy, and contentment you can sustain. Press play, take what serves you, and tell us: what are you choosing more of this year? Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a gentler plan, and leave a review to help more people find the show.
