About Peaceful Planet
Job, work, career, business—how’s that going for you?
Marriage, relationship, kids, home, sex life—what’s up with that?
What about you? Are you happy? Feeling satisfied with your life, fulfilled, at peace with the world, your job, the money you make (or don’t make), the people you know and love, yourself?
For many of us, recent economic upheavals changed the way we look at our lives, especially if we’re out of a job or fearing the worst. We might have had to take a job we didn’t want, or we’re afraid to leave the one we have. Or we want more than just a job. We want to do something we love and are passionate about or work at something that brings meaning to our lives and makes the world a better place.
Maybe your personal life is suffering. Your marriage is on the rocks, your kids are out of control, or if you hear your parents say “I told you so” one more time you’ll scream. Maybe you’re single, and every time someone asks “When are you going to settle down?” you hope that “settle down” doesn’t mean settling for less than you hoped for.
There are a lot of ways to be unhappy. And just as many to be happy. And for every unhappy situation, there’s a solution to the problem.
At Peaceful Planet, you’ll get tips and information you can use right away to make your life happier, more productive, more sane, more peaceful. You’ll get ideas and insights for new ways of looking at things or doing things in your personal life, in your relationships, in your family, and beyond.
It’s about choices, and it’s about finding inner peace. It’s about being free, not from constraints that others seem to place on us but from the prisons we create for ourselves.
It’s about finding happiness, but the key to finding lasting happiness is to make peace with ourselves, with others, and with the world. Only then can we reach out from where we’re at and do something different.

About Leah McClellan
There’s always so much more to anyone than what we can write about in a small space, but here’s some little stuff you probably don’t know about:
I have two wonderful dogs, Jack and Missy, and a cat named Nikki, and we live in a small fixer-upper house that I bought a few years ago. I’ve fixed some things, but there’s still a way to go. The dogs love their yard. Nikki loves my desk.
I have a garden and flower beds that I love taking care of. You could say I have a fantastically green thumb, but watering plants and making sure they’re in the right location for their needs isn’t really that complicated to me.
I don’t like cooking in the day-to-day (I loath it, really), but I love throwing parties and cooking special dishes for friends.
I’m a weather fanatic—meteorology, that is—and The Weather Channel was about the only thing I watched on TV until I shut off the cable. I don’t watch much TV anyway, so it was a waste of money since I can always take a peek at The Weather Channel online.
Writing is my first love, but I adore editing, and I’m really a geek at heart. I had a few fancy typewriters with small display screens before finally getting my own PC and Internet connection in the early 90s. By the late 90s, I was tinkering with web design, and I’ve always had an online presence in one way or another since then.
I read a lot. Fiction more than anything—give me a good novel any day—but I read just about anything (a grocery store check-out aisle is time for reading magazines). Music is big in my life too, and I still pick up my guitar once in awhile (I used to play a lot and even did a few open mics). But you probably don’t want to hear me sing.
My life has been all about challenging myself to solve problems, find peace and happiness, and do things different and better. It’s not always easy—far from it—but settling for less just isn’t good enough for me. I love learning the lessons I’ve learned, and I love sharing them. I don’t always do things the way others expect me to or in ways they want me to, but that can’t be helped. We have to chart our own courses, after all. How is that going in your part of the world?
If you’d like to subscribe to Peaceful Planet, I post a few times a month, on average. I love sharing my ideas and reading your take on things, so please feel free to comment, even when you disagree.
