Bronnie Ware, a nurse who worked in palliative care, conducted a survey that became a best-selling book written in multiple languages: “The Top Five Regrets of the Dying.”

She asked people who were in the last stage of their life what was the biggest regret of their life. People mentioned the types of things you might imagine: that they wished they hadn’t worked so hard, that they’d had the courage to express their feelings, and that they had stayed in touch with friends.

But two of the top five regrets are the topic of today’s episode. People wished that they’d let themselves be happier, and that they’d had the courage to live a life that was true to themselves, not the life others expected of them.

Sure, there may be fears to overcome, naysayers to ignore, boundaries to implement, and information to learn… but we often make life more difficult and complex than it has to be. And the starting point to living our dream life may be as simple as giving ourselves permission to live life on our own terms, creating our own unique brand of happiness in the process.

Tune in to hear about an area where I had to go against my biggest naysayer, but what doing so has allowed me to accomplish, and learn several reasons why right now is the time for you to begin saying “Yes” to your own self! Listen in...
