Hi friend,

Greetings from Denver where I got to hang with a bunch of RadReaders.

I hope you have something rad planned for "Leap Day" this week.

(We've got an info session for our next group coaching cohort!)

BTW, it’s almost March. Does the year feel like it’s slipping away from you?

Do you keep tackling the “small” things and putting off the “big” things, but you don’t know how to break the cycle?

Supercharge your Productivity is the only course that connects the pursuit of productivity to life’s larger questions so you can design a system that works for you.

🎧 In this week's podcast, we ask: Do you need a coach?​

I don't want all that money

What would you do if you sold your company for $25 million?

I can think of a few things.

I'd probably go surf Kelly Slater's manmade wave.

Maybe buy a mountain home.

Or a Porsche.

Don't you worry. I could keep coming up with ideas.

What's something I wouldn't do?

Immediately give it all away.

Tired parents can't meditate on a mountaintop

4 minutes | Mindful Mom in the Mud
​

A blissful sunrise meditation in lotus pose on a rustic balcony sounds delightful. It's also not an option for busy parents. We all know mindfulness is good for you, yet how can we realistically practice it amidst our daily chaos?
