02. Why Small Things Matter: Creating Space For a Better Life with Claire Diaz-Ortiz

We all want to climb mountains in our lives, but what if the life we were meant to experience is found in the small things? Claire Diaz-Ortiz -- the woman who got the Pope on Twitter -- author, speaker and Manager of Social Innovation at Twitter talks with Bonnie Gray about the journey to experience life rather than survive it. If you're tired of living life on the hamster wheel, this podcast is for you: *Why we sometimes don't need to climb a mountain -- and why creating space to hear God best allows him change us instead. * Why things on your To-Do List won't lead to a better life, but the small things will. * Why anxiety keeps us up at night, our childhood patterns of dealing with stress -- how we can practice better self care. * The importance of play for us as adults & how to create space for it. * The power of 3 Good Things and how they help you nurture a good day. * Drawing boundaries on technology and social media to enjoy the moments that really matter. The end of the year is a great time to take stock of where our time and energies have gone -- and reflect on what really matters. This podcast is a wonderful prompt to have that soulful conversation with your yourself, your friends and with God. This is one to pass onto your friends. Enjoy!
