Ep. 150 | Why the Most Energizing Day You'll Have This Year Might Cost You Nothing

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode I'm sharing something one of my retreat participants did after our retreat that I think is one of the most quietly radical things I have heard in a long time.  She found herself in New York City with almost no phone battery, turned it off, and spent the day following her own curiosity — the Jefferson Building, Rockefeller Center, Broadway — with no map and no agenda. She left tired and came back revitalized.  The artist date is not about rest. It is about exposure — exposing your soul to new experiences, new beauty, new wonder.  Today's episode is about why replenishment might look nothing like what you expect.  Question to carry into your day: What would your version of the artist date look like — and when could you give yourself one this week?  If the way you replenish yourself involves food in ways that don't feel good, let's talk.
