Yesterday was a good day. We're in a series called "Space Invaders" - it's about prioritizing so that we build space around the events, expenses, etc. of in our lives so that we can be generous with our finances and time.

Today was the first time in almost 2 years that I felt like we really hit the "groove" on ... Read More
