"Meanderings with Trudy" is brought to you these days by the letter "P" for Pivot. With Angie away for the rest of this season, I'll be doing these episodes on my own. Honestly, it took me a while to figure out what to do, but this is what I have decided: an on-line book club looking into a book on joy. We're digging into the book "The Joy Diet: 10 Daily Practices for a Happier Life" by sociologist and life coach Martha Beck. Please, join me!
Feasting… author Martha Beck tells us that feasting has three essential elements: celebration, nourishment and gratitude. That’s what we talk about today in this final episode of the book, and of this 2024 spring season.
I will be on break until October, but offering a “Meander Again” set of episodes, recasting my six conversations with Dina Bell-Laroche and her book, which takes us to mid-August. After that, I will go silent until October, a real break during which my creative juices will marinate.
Thank you for your good company! See you in the fall!
Feel free to share your thoughts with me at meanderingswithtrudy@gmail.com. I’d love to hear how your work has gone, and how you are onboarding, or playing with, these ten daily practices.
