Stop everything you’re doing and listen up! Not asking yourself the right questions keeps the best part of you hidden from the ones you love and even worse, it keeps you from you. Going through your days feeling stuck and somehow not even conscious of what’s wrong, or that something is wrong, or that there is a way better existence possible is not okay!

What will it take for you to stop walking through life ignoring messages meant to save you and start living more aware in the moment of your emotions, your needs, your wants and even better what you don’t want and need?

Jenna Kutcher is the host of Goal Digger, the podcast that delivers life struggles, reframes, clarity and value through the lens of a mom, entrepreneur and marketing guru. She’s taking this dive with Lisa to discuss her first book, How Are You Really, and get to the heart of what so many women are struggling to articulate.

Pause where you are right now, before you continue and think about where you will be in 5 years if you continue as you are today with no changes? Is this what you want for yourself? What needs to change for you to get excited and really look forward to a version of you 5 years out that is worth moving towards?

In this episode, grab the pen and paper, Jenna and Lisa are bringing hard questions we all need to be brave enough to really answer. From aligning with the future vision you have for yourself to creating space that allows creativity and curiosity, and dealing with burnout, Jenna is bringing sunshine to the reality of the emotions we all face.
