You’ll be guided to dive in to identify and achieve 50 things you want to experience to invite more joy and fulfillment. 50 things may seem like a lot, but thinking so large helps you break through limited thinking and negative self-talk, and gets you into a fun and playful mindset where you think about what you really want your life to look and feel like. Why not?! Once the intention is set, things begin to happen and you’ll be experiencing the things on your chart sooner than you thought!
