I share a powerful quote that reminds us of the futility of searching for external solutions when what we seek is already inside. Through personal stories, including a touching memory of my late husband and a meaningful encounter with a familiar place, I explore how we often overlook the treasures in our lives. We also discuss the importance of pausing, expressing gratitude, and finding value in ourselves and our surroundings. Join me and learn to appreciate the beauty already present in our lives.

    Episode Highlights:
    [1:05] - Slowing down to internalize the purpose of the podcast and our time together.
