Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

Well, hello, my friend!

Today I'm coming at you from Miami.

I am back home after a glorious month away.

And I have to say something when I got back I messaged my friend Amy. She

texted me saying, oh my gosh, how is your trip? And I said to her, the first truth that hit me when I arrived home, which is,

I had this ping of euphoria coming into my apartment, realizing that I love my real life, so to speak, my day-to-day day real life just as much as I love my travel slash

vacation slash fun adventurous life away from home. To me, my friend, that is success. I remember Seth Golden said this once

when I was working in my corporate job, I read it and I was like yes because I'd spend so much

time planning my holidays where are we gonna go I always need something to look

forward to there always has to be something in the calendar he said something along the lines of, because I'm paraphrasing here, instead of spending

all of your time planning the perfect getaways, why don't you create a life that you don't want to escape from?

And I thought that was beautiful because think about it. I mean here in the US we have two weeks off a year right in Australia in the UK it's four weeks

depending on where you work it's always going to be a little bit different but I thought yeah I mean that is a tiny, tiny miniscule amount of time away that cannot be your

peak experience.

It's up to us to design, to create, to infuse our lives with what makes us happy, what brings us joy, what is meaningful to us.

So coming home for a month away, I feel it's always bittersweet to say goodbye, but I feel good. I feel psyched to work. I feel psyched to get back into my routine to see my friends and to ease in gently. So let me ask you this. Have you

created a life that you don't want to escape from or is planning trips and

planning weekend activities the majority of the fun in your life.

I'm actually hosting a class next week, so Tuesday, May 14th, about how to make coaching a dream reality for you.

My husband says to me often, you know, I'm so happy you got serious about coaching years ago.

And I've said it many times if you listen to the podcast, you'll hear me say often,
