In a world of comparison, competition, and constant performance, it’s easy to turn inward, guard our energy, or measure our worth by what we haven’t yet done. But what if, instead of striving, we chose to cheer? What if your next right thing wasn’t about you at all, but about seeing someone else clearly and naming their goodness out loud?

370: On Envy and Contentment with Kate Strickler
I’m so glad to welcome Kate Strickler, the creator behind the extremely popular blog and Instagram account Naptime Kitchen. She’s known for her down-to-earth practicality and home and parenting hacks, and when she isn't working or wrangling the kids, you can find her in her happy place: experimenting in the kitchen. Kate lives in Charleston, South Carolina with her husband, Nate and their four children and I’m so glad to have her join us today. She's written her very first book called I Just Wish I Had A Bigger Kitchen: And Other Lies I Think Will Make Me Happy. In it she shares small habits and mindset shifts to find contentment and joy in life. We’ll talk about that and more. I hope you’ll listen in.
