Summary

If you’re like most people, you likely feel inclined to “should” all over yourself in the name of New Year’s resolutions. We believe our “should” thoughts will make us more lovable, but those thoughts are blocking you more than you can see right now. So, I’ve declared 2022 a should-free year, and on this episode, I’m inviting you to join me.

0:10.3

to. Here's your host, Master Certified Life Coach, Grief Expert, Widow, and Mom, Krista

St. Germain.

Hey there, welcome to another episode of the podcast. I'm recording this one before Christmas so that it will

0:40.0

be ready for you and so that I can take some time off for the holidays and let my brain think about

0:46.0

non-business things between Christmas and New Year's. I hope you're doing the same because we need

0:52.9

to unplug. We need to take time away. And I'm planning

0:55.9

to do just that. I'm not completely sure what we're going to do yet, but the boyfriend and I are

0:59.8

considering a trip to Nashville and Memphis because that's only a day's drive from where we live in

1:07.0

Kansas. And I don't want to deal with commercial airports this time of year. Unfortunately, I only worked for Learjet. I didn't actually get one when I worked there.

1:40.7

And sometimes when you fly internationally, customs actually gets on the plane with you

1:46.9

and walks you through their process and you don't have to deal with any of it. And it's fantastic.

1:51.8

So it's a fun goal to think about someday, but for this trip, we'll just, we'll just drive and

1:58.3

figure it out as we go. So, okay, are you ready to talk about a should free year?

2:02.8

You ready? Okay, so I have created a new rule for this year. No shoulds. That is my rule.

2:09.5

I officially declare that this year is a should free year, meaning a year free of shoulds. And so I want to invite you to join me.
