EP300: Be A Lifelong Learner: 60 Mindful Minutes Finale

This is my last episode of the 60 Mindful Minutes podcast. I’m tremendously proud of what I’ve created and so honored that you’ve listened, some of you since the very beginning. Learning has been our shared journey. Whether through books, conversations, or unique experiences, we've grown together. And while this chapter may be closing, the process of learning never truly ends. So in this episode, let’s dive deep into how we can keep the spirit of curiosity alive as lifelong learners.

EP296: “Four Thousand Weeks” with Cheryl K. Johnson

Author Cheryl K. Johnson joins us to discuss one of her favorite books, Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman.

Guest Bio

Cheryl was a research director for nearly twenty years until boxing training gave her the courage to leave corporate life for something that felt more like her true self. Box Lunch Lifestyle is how she now helps people realize that richer, more satisfying lives aren’t as distant as they seem. Secretly, Cheryl loves grocery stores: small family-owned ones, national chains, co-ops, and the corner convenience store. Seeing everyday life through the lens of what food is available, and what people actually buy, fascinates her—and reinforces her disdain for weight loss programs and companies that thrive by selling non-nutritious food. When she’s not boxing, reading, or pushing a cart, Cheryl and her husband enjoy documentary films and Indian food. They live near St. Paul, MN, in a town that Cheryl describes as a cross between Lake Wobegon and Twin Peaks.
