If you could reimagine the time of your life, what would it look like? Would you continue to be trapped by your calendar? Or, would you dial into what is sacrosanct and transform your relationship with time so it played by your rules and worked itself into your schedule?
To get a template for living a regret-less life, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with author and keynote speaker, Bonnie Wan about how to lead with clarity, creativity, and courage.
In Bonnie’s book, The Life Brief: A Playbook for No-Regrets Living, she offers the clarity she gleaned from her deep dive into what wasn’t working in her life, how she leaned into aggravation to reframe her relationship with time and transform her life.
