The Not-So-Big Life
The bigger-is-better idea that triggered the explosion of McMansions in home design has spilled over to give us McLives. The Not So Big Life shows us how to change the way we live by fully inhabiting each moment of our lives.
 Just as we can tear down interior walls to open up space, The Not So Big Life shows us that we can tear down our fears, assumptions and conditionings in a way that opens us up to new possibilities so we can start passionately engaging the things we long to do.
