Sometimes the speed goes up, or goes down.  Sometimes the incline goes up, and sometimes it goes down.  But through it all, you stay on. You find a way to keep going. This is a reminder to sometimes slow down; and sometimes speed up.  Follow Richard: http://richarddedor.com Follow the Podcast: http://instagram.com/liveitwellpodcast

So excited to welcome Christina to this week's episode ... she was a bookworm like me growing up and that took her to the far-reaches of the world as a reporter where she covered stories on gangs and peace deals. In the end, she has always followed her passion and has now written two novels and gives her time to various groups to inspire writing among those who often get left behind.  Follow Christina: https://www.christinahoag.com/ Sponsor: Ride to End Alzheimer's.

I recently closed a chapter of my life: my first real business closed for good. It was bittersweet and I have no regrets (outside of it not working out!). I'm proud of the work we did and what I learned along the way. But it doesn't make it any easier. :)  Check out the podcast with Adam, my former business partner: https://www.richarddedor.com/live-it-well-podcast/adam-viet-hard-work-outside-the-spotlight Follow Richard: http://richarddedor.com Follow the Podcast: http://instagram.com/liveitwellpodcast

After a shift in plans this week, I was reminded that sometimes you have to embrace the moment you've been given and just say, "F it, I'm going to get going." It was true for me this week, and it should be true for us all every day.  Learn More About Richard: http://www.richarddedor.com http://twitter.com/richarddedor http://instagram.com/richarddedor http://facebook.com/richard.m.dedor
