Welcome to a new year. It probably doesn’t feel much different than the last one and that’s ok. Let’s not put a ton of pressure there. You can have lots of new years, this is just one. I don’t suggest resolutions but I do love all things lists. So here is my list for 2021: my Top Five Reminders to Strengthen Your Practice in a New Year.

To celebrate the end of endless 2020, we share an "Extra Credit" episode made for our beloved Homework Club Members in the beginning of December.

Enjoy this short, soothing account of Beth Pickens reassuring you that you do NOT have to end this year on top of the world. You don’t need to get super productive over the next six weeks. You don’t have to force anything, finish anything, or figure out anything. Also, a reminder to join Homework Club before the price goes up in early January!
