Every Monday morning on my SiriusXM radio show, I do a segment called Mental Health Mondays. Once a month, I speak with my own life coach Lauren Handel Zander about one of the 12 areas of life she has her students focus on as they do The Handel Method. Those areas include: career, money, love, body, dreams, etc. But the hardest area for me personally was FUN!

Which I know sounds completely ridiculous. Why would it be so hard for me to figure out how to have more fun? Well, for a recovering overachiever and workaholic it’s actually a tricky question. What do I even like to do that’s not related in some way to work? It’s not even a question I’ve asked myself in a really long time. Until working with Lauren of course. She would actually ask me most days, “What are you going to do today to make the day fun?”
