In this week\\u2019s episode, I talk about how we can create the life we want for ourselves in 2017. This special time of year has an energy, a newness, and a freshness about it. It\\u2019s time to set our course for what we truly want from life. Setting our intentions for the year ahead should be done from a place of truth and authenticity. Are we able to accept ourselves more completely? Are we able to set goals and resolutions based on our heart\\u2019s desire, instead of from our ego\\u2019s demand? Are we able to recognize, acknowledge, forgive, and change things which may have held us back in the past?

If 2017 were your last year on this planet, what changes would you make in your life or in your work?
