Welcome to Week 9, friend!

The last couple weeks have been heavy and serious…finances, careers…so this week I’m excited to be talking about pillar 9: Recreation. In this bucket we’re talking vacations, luxury bags, puppies—BRING ON THE FUN!

When you think about living your best life, what do you picture? Palm trees and white sand beaches? White water rafting? Weekly massages? Living on a puppy rescue? 

What are the things and experiences you want to have in your life?

When I’ve led this class live, some of the messages I saw were:

• Visit two new countries this year.
• The new Christian Dior book tote.
• Go snowboarding at least once a month during the winter.
• Have a massage at the Burgenstock Spa in Switzerland.
• Adopt a senior cat from the local shelter.
• Go snorkeling in Bora Bora.
• Write a book.
• Speak on a TED stage.
• Learn to bake croissants.
• Buy a pair of Louboutins.

(Okay, yes, several of those are from my own personal vision. 😍)

WEEK 9 PILLAR: RECREATIONAL

ANCHOR: Take 10 minutes to answer/journal.

• How would you like to spend your time outside work?
• What things and experiences do you want to call into your life?
• What do you want to 1) stop, 2) start, or 3) continue?
• What energizes you?
• What drains you?

AMPLIFY: If you want to go deeper on this theme.

• Make a Pinterest board visualizing each of the things/experiences.

See you next week for the 10th pillar where we make the intangible tangible.

Cheering for your best life,
– Nicole
