You can be wildly successful and completely off track at the same time — and most people don't find out until the cost is already too high.
In this episode, Shay shares the mid-year assessment she and Graham have done for 15 years that she credits with keeping their marriage, family, health, finances, friendships, and faith all trending in the right direction — even through the hardest seasons of dual entrepreneurship. She walks you through all 11 life sectors of her Whole Life Assessment, explains why each one matters, and gives you the simple framework to identifying the one or two areas to focus on so you don't burn out trying to fix everything at once.
Most people are so busy building a life they never stop to actually look at it — this episode is your invitation to stop and look.
