Work & Play

ABOUT the EPISODE:

How often do we prioritize the work that we do over the people in our lives? And when we accomplish those goals, do we take the time to celebrate, or do we continue to set the bar higher without providing ourselves the moments to celebrate our wins? This episode discusses the moments of work and play as we review the goals we may have set at the start of the year. Join Licensed Professional Counselor, Vanessa De Jesus Guzman, for this real-talk conversation on personal growth, mindful living, and a short meditation.
