As I head back to my home state of Oklahoma this week to promote The Life Council, I'm feeling nostalgic in every way. Even as life has marched forward, and I entered my twenties, then my thirties, and now my forties, I have found it useful to tap back into the childhood version of me. It reminds me who I am in my core and it reminds me where I came from.

And sometimes, even as I evolve in a positive way, I need that reminder of where I started. I want to tap into that original spirit.

This episode has four questions to ask yourself about your childhood self. We're going to talk about:

Place

People

Our bodies

Our dreams

Maybe you think about your childhood self all the time. Maybe it's been a long time since you really remembered that version of you.

This episode and these questions will bring you back to who you were when you were young.

I'm Laura Tremaine.

I live in Los Angeles. I'm a reader, a podcaster, a wife, and a mom.

At all times, I have (at least) 10 Things To Tell You. And I know that YOU have 10 Things To Tell.

This place is about connection, with each other and with ourselves. We can only do this by opening our eyes and seeing others and (even harder) by letting ourselves be seen.

Let’s tell our stories.

Let’s share our stuff.

I’ll go first.
