Welcome to Food for Thought, giving you the tools and resources you need to live according to your

values of compassion and wellness joyfully, healthfully, deliciously, and sustainably.

Today's episode is everything I know I've learned from living, 50 ways to create a meaningful

life. Hi, everyone, Colleen Patrick Goodrow here. I'm just going to say hello

and then duck out because this is a rebroadcast of an episode I did back in 2020. And I know that

because in the original edit of this episode, I mentioned that it was my 50th birthday and I was creating this episode 50 ways to live a meaningful

life in honor of that birthday. Obviously 50, 50, get it. And also because I was talking about

COVID. It's just so weird. And here we are three years later. And I wanted to broadcast this episode for

you again, ways into different episodes. And I don't think I've done that yet. I aspire to it. But you can

find, I think, a number of them expanded upon in different episodes. So certainly let me know

which ones you're interested in hearing more about.

So I just wanted to say hello. I am back from Italy. I hosted two back-to-back trips to Italy,

one in Tuscany, one in northern Italy. They were incredible, magical trips with fabulous human

beings. I'm so grateful to all of you who come on these

trips and who experience the magic of these trips. There's really nothing else I can say unless

you join one of these trips. You just have to trust me because transformations happen,

relationships, bonding relationship, like the relationships we watch, the connections,

the friendships, the, it's so incredible.

And they really are incredibly meaningful trips to each person for different reasons.

So I'm really grateful if you'd like to join me for I mean I think we have five trips right now

on the website which is pretty awesome because we're always thinking ahead to give you enough

runway to join to book any of these trips so there's lots to choose from and I encourage you to go
