People say, well, what do you want to do today?

And I go, about half of it I want to practice laying around.

I'm a professional lay-arounder.

I think the reason a lot of people get into hassles on vacation, because they're not doing what they want to be doing.

I've found that I can get mentally prepared ahead of time about what I want to do and feel like we're in

partnership. Hi, this is Gay Hendrix, along with my good buddy Mike Koenig's, and in this episode

of the Big Leap podcast, we're going to go into a subject we've never discussed before,

which is conscious resting and also intentional vacationing.

And so we've got some interesting things to say about that.

Both Mike and I are connoisseurs of conscious resting and intentional vacationing, and

I hope you'll become one too.

Mike?

Yes.

Well, here's one of the things that I really

love about this episode is Gay talks about, are you moving too fast or too slow for your essence?

This is a huge distinction, something I had never thought of before, but I felt it for a long time.

And it's changed the way I'm having

conversations with my wife from this moment moving forward. So you can expect this and a lot,

a lot of big ideas in this episode Conscious resting and intentional vacationing.

So tell us about this special trip and why it's so important to you.

Well, Katie and I have been together now 43 years.

And so one of the things we're about to do is to go to Maui and celebrate our 43 years together
