I LOVED this post Julie, thanks so much for writing it with Katie. I often think when I am in a traffic jam of all of the trillions of events that must have happened over human (and natural) history to lead up to that moment and it really does make me a little calmer. At least until the next red light... 😉
Awesome insights! Knowing the difference between working hard and working ourselves sick is key for success and inner peace! Love the burnt toast analogy! :-)
