The Intentional Living Project
by Bruce Dodd and Joe Varner
The Intentional Living Project podcast explores the struggles and tactics professional men and women face as they work to balance all that life presents to us. We believe it all hinges on both approaching each day with intentionality and recognizing this is a process, not a one-and-done destination. With a daily practice of living more intentionally, the demands on your time, obstacles and stressors can become easier to manage. Each week we dive into the challenges we face across work, our relationships, parenthood, and our personal well being to provide ways that’ll make it easier for us all to find what we need most: balance and fulfillment.
