How has the first week of 2023 been for you??

I had a lot of fun this week because, as you may have noticed,?? episode 250 ??of?The Brainy Business?podcast came out this week!! ????I did a little?dance party and made a fun post for Instagram. I also?made this gorgeous Lego?the kids got me for Christmas while working on a big writing project. [HINT: There might be a little sneak peek in that post if you are curious what I'm working on... ?? ]?

What about you?

Was this week chaotic and stressful -- or full of FUN?! I hope there was more of the latter, but for many, at times like these (coming back after a holiday break) it can feel anything but fun. Which brings us to the question...

Does fun matter?

As it turns out...yes! Fun really does matter and is linked to all sorts of great benefits in our life. And, while having fun and happiness often go together...they are not the same thing (and pursuing one is better than chasing the other).
