An earthquake shook Colombia recently. But it also shook something in me.

In those moments when the ground beneath you is literally moving, you're reminded just how little control you really have - and how quickly everything you take for granted can suddenly feel incredibly precious. Your health. Your family. Your children. The people you love. The roof over your head. The simple fact that you woke up this morning and get another day.

In this episode, I share what the earthquake made me think about - and why sometimes we need to be shaken, literally or metaphorically, to remember how fortunate we already are. Because it's incredibly easy to spend our lives focusing on what's missing, what's frustrating us, what hasn't happened yet, or what we want next.

Until something happens that reminds us: This life is happening right now. Maybe you don't need an earthquake to wake you up. Maybe this episode can do it instead.

Listen now - and take a moment today to appreciate the life and the people you already have.
