Generosity is second nature around the holidays, but our good intentions often fizzle once we return to the busyness of life. Caroline and Jean offer up some tips to make it easier to keep that generous spirit alive and well all year long. Laura Andrade, Jean's friend and co-author of FOUR SECONDS, joins in to talk about her struggle with addiction and how she was able to turn her life around--thanks to the practice of generosity she learned as a child and continues to exhibit in her life. Come hang out with us on The Wrong Side of 40.
