I was recently listening to an episode of the Ed Mylett Show with Rory Vaden, and they brought up the difference between investing time versus spending time. It’s a simple idea, but it helped me realize that being intentional about what you’re doing and who you’re doing it with isn’t just about streamlining your schedule, but it’s also about moving the needle on your long-term goals and making your life better. I’ve been reflecting on how I’ve been able to apply this to my life and some tangible ways for you to implement it in your life as well.     IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Thinking about the ROI of your time  Reflecting on ways that you might be giving away your time without getting anything in return  How the most successful business leaders invest their time  Why Chris and I consider our lake house a true investment in our future success, happiness, and wellbeing    RESOURCES Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey audiobook  The Ed Mylett Show - Building A Powerful Personal Brand w/ Rory Vaden   Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!

I love to switch things up by having a conversation with someone new and learning from them. Trying a new activity, workout routine, or being in an unknown environment gives us a better understanding of the decisions that we should make in order to have the life that we want.

Chris and I have been loving our summer here at our lake house in Wisconsin, but when we envisioned our time here, we didn’t take into account some of the extra responsibilities that go into making this dream a reality.

We discuss what it feels like to have an ‘expectation hangover’ and tools we use to refocus our energy on bringing a vision together.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: How we prepare ahead of time for a summer slowdown in our work  The reality of what goes into making our lake house dreams come true  Practicing gratitude for hard work  Learning how to work through challenges instead of abandoning your vision when things get tough    RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!

We all have fears, but how can you use them to propel you forward instead of hold you back? All you have to do is choose which fear you're going to feed and let that be the fuel that motivates you to achieve your big goals.    Chris and I discuss what fears really drive us, and how we use that to stay focused without letting it overwhelm us. We feel so fortunate to live the life that we do now and show up for our friends and family in ways that we never could’ve dreamed of, and the thought of all that going away is enough to kick us into high gear. What’s the thing that keeps you going when you feel like you can’t anymore? Always remember that and use it to your advantage.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The power of visualizing the life that you want and being unapologetic about it Recognizing if it’s the excitement of having nice things or the fear of not having them that makes you take action Appreciating the freedom we have in our country to pursue our boldest dreams  Tangible ways to reimagine your fears as motivation    RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!

Most of us don't need to be adding things to our plate right now. In fact, taking things off your to-do list can actually help you make time for the people and experiences that really matter. When you scroll on social media, it can feel like everyone is doing more than you, but how can you look for ways to create value and fulfillment from doing less? I’ve found that taking a step back has magically expanded time and made me even more productive when I need to be in that mode. I want to challenge you this week to do less and give yourself time to connect with something or someone you love.    IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Reflecting on spending quality time with family and friends in Wisconsin  Detaching your self-worth from how busy you are  How you can actually get more done by doing less Evaluating if your routines are actually making you more stressed    RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!
