049: Values

Kelly and Brooke are back for another year of navel-gazing and deep conversations.  Brooke and Kel often talk about the importance of living a values-based life, one where they act in alignment with their priorities, but the question is often asked: how do we uncover those values in the first place?   In today’s episode, Brooke talks about the emotional exercise she used to discover her personal values, while Kelly gives a great insight into the very practical approach she uses for determining her own values.   Unsurprisingly, the approaches are quite different but the outcome is similar: having a strong understanding of core values has led both Kel and Brooke to make decisions and actions based on what’s important to them, rather than simply being a passenger in their own lives.   Be sure to join the Let It Be Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/letitbepod/) and head over to http://www.letitbe.fm to learn more about Kelly and Brooke!    Links and Resources:   7 strange questions that help you find your life purpose - via Mark Manson: https://markmanson.net/life-purpose  Eight weeks to a better brain - via the Harvard Gazette: http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2011/01/eight-weeks-to-a-better-brain/  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
