Ep022 - Grandma Elma's Sign

Today, Dallas shares the heartwarming story of Grandma Elma's Sign and its powerful message: "My house is clean enough to be healthy and dirty enough to be happy."

This episode dives into:
- The importance of valuing relationships over perfection.
- Why striving for "perfect" can rob you of joy and connection.
- Embracing the "life marks" that reflect meaningful memories.
- Stories from my own life about balancing a welcoming home with imperfection.
- A simple Positive Play Call activity inspired by Grandma Elma's sign.

TAKEAWAYS:
- Perfection isn’t happiness; contentment is.
- Life is messy, and that’s what makes it meaningful.
- Gratitude for small, imperfect moments leads to richer relationships.
- Create a home (and life) that’s an oasis of peace, not a museum of perfection.
