She brings in themes from her week, emphasizing this week - the power of perspective with mantras like "You See What You’re Looking For." This approach helps to shift focus from loss to opportunity, encouraging a positive outlook on life's challenges.

Today's podcast includes stories from Sharí's "50 States Project," where she dined with strangers across the U.S., learning unique life lessons. Shari shares a story about Megan, a makeup artist from Virginia who adopted her husbands last name when they married and how she humorously encounters cultural mix-ups, exemplifying how people see what they are looking for.

Sharí shares personal experiences that serve as examples of transforming daily tasks into moments of joy and appreciation. She advocates for a mindset shift from catabolic (destructive) to anabolic (constructive) states.

Call to Action: Sharí encourages listeners to experiment with changing their perspectives, to find hidden opportunities in difficult situations, and to seek joy in simple things. She stresses the importance of building happiness and relationships over the fleeting joy that comes from acquiring material things.

Conclusion: The podcast closes on a note of hope, reminding listeners that every day presents an opportunity for rediscovery and reinvention, emphasizing the mantra, "You see what you are looking for," helping listeners to find joy even during challenging transitions.
