Hey Friends! 

During a recent conversation with my husband, JP, I had one of those out-of-body experiences; you know, the type where you actually listen to yourself as you speak. I’m ashamed to admit almost everything I said was negative! When did I become this way? How did I become this way? I wondered.

Of course, we all have moments we complain (gas prices? the economy? politics?) but If the last few years have made you more negative than positive, you’ll find this episode helpful.  On this week's show, I share the surprising truth I discovered about how complaining affects us, and I share some tips to prevent negativity from taking over our lives. There’s lots of great info in today’s episode. I hope it’s just what you need because it’s definitely what I needed!

You are loved,

Donna
