Summary

Rose Lounsbury tells you four questions you can ask yourself to help give yourself a happier day. Episode 1824: 4 Questions for a Happier Day by Rose Lounsbury on How To Improve Happiness Rose Lounsbury is a keynote speaker, Amazon bestselling author, simplicity coach, and still-sane mom of triplets. (Yes, you heard that right!) She helps overwhelmed people create open spaces in their homes, workspaces, and more importantly–their minds–by letting go of the excess stuff that gets in the way. Rose started her own simplicity journey in 2012, after getting fed up with spending all of her free time dealing with my stuff. As she slowly let go of everything that didn’t matter to her, she discovered some amazing things: free time, peace of mind, & clarity. Rose became a simplicity coach to help others do the same thing.

questions and prompts that I put into the Optimal Living Daily workbook now available to order,

just in time for the holidays and to start the new year off right. It's over 200 pages in a hard

Despite what we tell everyone, most of us are not having a good day. Now, before you disagree with

1:47.3

herself very harshly, who's equating her worth and internal can't take away quality, with her

1:54.1
