Do you ever get halfway through the day without even touching your to-do list? With all the demands of home, work, and modern living, it's easy to get caught up in a pattern of responding to the world around us, rather than being intentional in our choices. My guest today is Jonathan Fields: father, husband, award-winning author, and head of the Good Life Project. Jonathan is here to talk about how to make mindful decisions about your goals and relationships. If your health keeps taking a backseat in your daily routine or you feel like you need to hit "reset" on your priorities, today's show is for you.
