About this episode
300. FUN: We’re Finally Figuring It Out with Catherine Price
Pod Squad! Do you remember back in the very first days of the pod when we talked about FUN? It was episode 4. Now, hundreds of episodes later, we’re finally ready to give fun the long, deep dive and consideration it deserves. Abby is excited, Glennon is interested, and Amanda is skeptical, but we’re all here, ready to learn and maybe even to have a little fun. Thankfully, Fun Expert (how cool is that title?) and author of, The Power of Fun: How to Feel Alive Again, Catherine Price is here to be our fun ambassador and to teach us all how to draw more fun and fun opportunities into day-to-day life!
Discover:
-The difference between real fun and fake fun;
-The mental load’s impact on fun;
-The three necessary ingredients for fun and how find your “Fun Magnets;” plus
-Abby, Glennon, and Amanda’s stand out fun moments and how they plan to create more of that in their lives.
