When is the last time you truly had YOU time?

Sure speed gets things done faster, but what is the true win if you're left in the dust at the end of the day? If you come home tired everyday? If you tell your kids maybe tomorrow, everyday?

SLOW DOWN!

Change is hard.

No one likes abrupt change, no one likes simple change. We know what we know, and we like what we like. What if though, we looked at it from a different perspective. A perspective that allowed us to see that it might not be that hard.

So join me today and let us dive into change, and how people need to also stop telling me what I can do.

The holidays are moving in quick, and next thing you know it will be 2026. One thing that I do is think of what is my word for the next year. I want something that will stick and apply to all the things I want for 2026.

So grace. Giving myself more grace in 2026.

I would go back and take it slower.

I would go back and really look into it.

I would slow it down.

You may have been told that being picky is not always the best quality...but I am here to tell you that it is.

Be picky! Be selective! This is your life, so chose wisely.

Welcome to the courtroom episode here on Off Duty. Imagine you see a video where someone is trying to rescue or help an animal and you instantly say to yourself... "Stop filming and help the animal."

You're not wrong, and I would say the same thing until now.

Tune in so you see why I would change my mind if this specific situation.

I had this plan that my daughter would join me and make the cutest chat moments on the podcast... well...maybe not.

We talked about school, who she loves, and she ends with playing the drums.

Out of pocket day, but after that super moon aren't we all a little off?
