We are finally doing an episode about finding your values. Even if we don’t realize it, our values are a constant undercurrent in our lives. They are what we use to make decisions and how we choose to spend our time and energy, whether we know it or not.

Finding our values is a process of discovery and we are going through that process in today’s episode.

Episode highlights:

• Defining personal values
