It's easy to think about the long term things in life. We set goals such as, be retired at a certain age or become a homeowner by this age. It is good to have plans, but at times we can have the mindset of, 'once I get here, then i'll be happy' therefore, we may forget to enjoy the journey. The "Sincerely, L'ilA" podcast is designed to support listers and supporters in their quest to "enjoy the journey". Sincerely, L'ilA
