Episode 6: Recapture Your Childlike Spirit of Wonder with Laurie Gabriel

In this episode, Misty speaks with Laurie Gabriel, author of Eyes of Wonder: How to Recapture Your Childlike Spirit.   The qualities you embraced as a child still exist inside of you: speaking your mind honestly, noticing the beauty in ordinary objects, not judging others on their appearance, and seeing the world as a giant playground. If you are feeling bored, disillusioned, unhappy, angry, or stuck, there are techniques you can use to grab onto that part of you that is dauntless, optimistic, and joyful. It just takes a little practice.  About our Guest:   Spending much of her life in a classroom with middle-schoolers, Laurie Gabriel learned to cultivate a childlike spirit!  Her experiences as a teacher culminated in a book and a program that helps people reconnect with the qualities that came naturally to all of us as children: imagination, presence, play, creativity, and the idea that everyone is a potential friend.  Eyes of Wonder: How to Recapture Your Childlike Spirit  is available on Amazon:   https://www.amazon.com/Eyes-Wonder-Recapture-Childlike-Spirit/dp/B08HH1JYQF/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2C04160CODADB&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.AZRAQQZB8c375d_azjlTaN4BdECpWffbtr-aI8vFPKTJbq38brS_i4rEk0eJkbMEuvt5wbX4PvShIIB6iNsgiZyOzr68gvpXbZ_iwbGnAr5g1MsrltvQftFR2LunyoHyy0TAYwVtDnWAp9CS_SxfrVEloYj3U7DFGB6Pzie6DGjlzHveLy6xD_42Dba-IOdzTIflwrJZSNOlZD-iGlY3bO5gxyXxmmUnzB5zdGXzrT0.-M5juIsuFWkNof7esVFG2FnO_FbjyUe36hTpsjrsNoY&dib_tag=se&keywords=eyes+of+wonder+laurie&qid=1708487127&sprefix=eyes+of+wonder+laurie+%2Caps%2C129&sr=8-1    You can watch her TEDx Talk HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1a_qboPu4nw  You can find out more information about DFW Women's Club at www.dfwwomensclub.com
