New Fan!

I am a stay-at-home mom/part-time student/aspiring author/book lover. I am a huge fan of your books and I have just started listening to you podcast! Your 10 tips for life balance episode was fabtastaic! It feels like there's so much stuff on my plate with no end in sight and it is so difficult to juggle life and stay on track with schooling, writing, and making sure I am attentive to my almost 2 year old. The tip of looking at life in weeks instead of days and picking just 2-3 things from my to-do list each day is most definitely going to be implemented immediately!

I have just recently found your podcast but you now have a new listener! I look forward to more!
