Summary

What would it be like if you never believed the “should” thoughts in your brain? What if, every time one appeared, you simply replied with, “No thank you”?

 

I’m no longer interested in entertaining “should” thoughts, and I believe we can intentionally choose what we want without them. Learn how to embark on a should-free year in 2024.

Hi, this is Angela, one of Krista's podcast producers.

Krista asked our team to pick an episode to re-air this week that we thought would be helpful

0:40.7

1:09.1

for the holidays and let my brain think about

1:52.8
