As we start our AFD Inc. Summer Sabbath, Yvette Henry is joining us on That Sounds Fun this week with a perfect conversation about rest to usher in some time off. She is the actual kindest. I really enjoyed talking with her! Don't miss: The Secret to Lasting Strength: Release, Rest, Remain. You can also watch it on YouTube.

WHO DOESN'T NEED A PILLOW FOR THEIR BATH TUB?! I gave my team each one of these, and a few other little surprises to enjoy over the break, and I'm telling you...a bath with a pillow and a good book right now sounds soooo nice. But I'll leave the candles to y'all. You know how I feel about an open flame. 😏

This Annie & Eddie Keep Talking episode may go down in history as the longest seven minutes of serious ever. Pretty much, this is all about how we are dealing with our bodies. The healthy, the not so healthy, the changes, the things that aren’t changing. Please be kind to yourself, us, and each other as you listen. 🀎 It's also available on YouTube!

That's the question I've been wrestling with, and it's the reason I wrote my new book, Don't Let That Hold You Back. I'M SO EXCITED TO PUT THIS IN YOUR HANDS THIS FALL! If you've ever felt stuck by fear, finances, burnout, your age, your relationship status, or simply a life that hasn't turned out the way you imagined, this book is for you....
