This week's episode I (Jenny) am doing a solo episode while Abbey is still in Europe! There's a lot I unpack in this episode, and it's all surrounding goal setting and tips on how you can strategize to make that goal come to life. So often we have goals that we never truly take action on, and I share some stories with you on the tools and tactics I used to obtain a goal I had, and the countless times I have failed. I speak on a visualization hack I use in order to get rid of negative thoughts, and share why you can't let outside circumstances keep you from living your best life. It's you against you! Then I dive into the 2020 rom com, The Wrong Missy! David Spade proves again to be a comedy legend, and I gush over Lauren Lapkus and how she's a comedic genius and why I think her facial expressions are killer. I discuss what I would have done if I was faced with the terrible situation Dave is put in during the movie. I end with some fun Trivia!
