• Why Prince Harry called Jennifer Walsh his “fairy godmother”
• The sacred pause that led to the birth of Godmothers books
• What to do when people are pushing you to be relevant

When faced with life’s challenges, it’s all too easy to get “stuck” in your own thoughts and emotions, unable to move forward and reach your goals. But there are simple tools you can use to handle stress, make the most of each moment, and act on your deepest values. In this episode, Dr. Diana Hill joins forces again with Dr. Debbie Soresen to talk about the ACT Daily Card Deck, sharing skills such as mindfulness, compassion, and committed action that you can use to get motivated and make lasting, positive change. ACT is more than just a therapy. It’s a framework for living well. And it works best when practiced daily—whether at home, work, or on the go, it can guide you toward the life you truly want!
