Episode 117: How to Design a Summer That Expands Your Life
Description
Memorial Day marks the unofficial beginning of summer, and while many of us still think of summer as a season of possibility, adulthood has a way of turning it into little more than a blur of logistics, obligations, and unanswered emails.
In this episode, I share a simple framework for creating a summer that feels expansive, intentional, and deeply satisfying.
Rather than chasing another massive reinvention project, I invite you to focus on:
✔️ One Big Thing that would make your life feel larger, richer, or more meaningful
✔️ Two Small Habit Tweaks that support that goal
✔️ Three Months to see what happens
You'll hear why most adults stop giving themselves defining seasons, how small habits create lasting change, and why experimentation is often more powerful than certainty.
If you've been feeling stuck, restless, or ready for something more, this episode will help you design a summer that moves you closer to the life you actually want.
In this episode:
- Why summer still has the power to change us
- How to choose a meaningful "One Big Thing"
- The role of small habit changes in long-term growth
- Why high-achievers often get stuck before they start
- How experimentation creates clarity
- The difference between expansion and productivity
- Why intentional seasons matter
