What's In My Bag?
Let's carry what helps, supports and comforts.
We carry a lot.
Sometimes, we carry too much.
This week, let’s make sure we carry what helps, supports and comforts. Let’s clean out our bag and toss away what drains, discourages and disappoints us.
We can remember that we control what we carry by asking ourselves this question to start our day: “What’s in my bag?”
We can carry:
realistic expectations and toss the unreasonable ones
healthy snacks to avoid the temptation of the junky ones
hopeful perspectives to quiet the doubts that steal our faith
What will you continue to carry? What will you toss?

I believe we all have a moment in life when the Universe turns its flashlight on us and shows us our path forward. I had a flashlight moment in the spring of 1990, which led to my 30-plus years of working and supporting family caregivers.
During our five-day virtual summer camp, I’ll help you turn your flashlight moment into a path of meaningful, impactful work, whether it be at your current employer, in a new business you start, through volunteer work or just in your community. Our camp begins Monday, August 12. We'll meet for one hour every day for five days at Noon ET. I'll record our classes and will release the full archive on August 17.
