TLS #49: approaching holidays intentionally with courtney carver (be more with less) - a podcast by Jess Lively

Today I’ve cooked up my first LivelyShow Thanksgiving special just for you!

I’ve got a full-length Lively Show designed to help you kick off one of the most meaningful, joyful, and stress-less holiday seasons ever!

I’m talking with the incredible Courtney Carver of Be More With Less about how we can approach this holiday season from an intentional perspective.

But this show covers much more than just changing our approach to gift giving, decor, holiday commitments, and increasing the elements of the holidays that mean the most.

We are talking about the importance of being proactive with our health, handling a difficult diagnosis, and how to make gradual shifts towards a simpler lifestyle that lead to huge transformation.

This episode is perfect for anyone looking to reduce the holiday stress, increase holiday joy, put themselves first, and to prevent or manage a difficult health issue.
