Take a listen, try some of our tips for lightening your mood, and if you've found some creative ways for building a more positive mindset, b

Why does family togetherness freak us out? We spend so much time work-work-working that the idea of having to relate and actually communicate with family can at times be very difficult.

Susan joins Clay for this new podcast episode and together they share some thoughts and insights on family, letting go of the past and making room for the future.

How about...not having any regrets...saying what you need to say...apologizing where an apology needs to be made...saying thank you and showing appreciation...and having your integrity in place... Being complete creates the peace of mind that gets rid of all Would-have, Should-have, and Could-have kinds of thoughts! The post Completion appeared first on Business Coaching and Life Coaching.
