Gold Coin Day

March 17, 2021 By Kari Leave a Comment

 Find out what Gold Coin Day is, and why you should think about working it into your life!

Gold Coin Day-1This has really nothing to do with St. Patrick’s Day, but with the gold coin reference, this seemed like a perfect time to fill you in on this really cool strategy that I highly recommend adopting.

Gold Coin Day was something our friend Tim Lozinik came up with, and it’s brilliant. The best way I can describe it is, a day where you throw out the schedule and forget about all of your to-do’s, and give yourself a day to do nothing but chill and enjoy the company of people you love! Here’s Tim’s official definition:

“A Gold Coin Day sure is an uplifting time. A day set aside to renew, rekindle, and recharge ones inner ability to exude excellence. An incomparable marriage of fellowship, libations and cheerful banter. A Gold Coin Day.”

Gold Coin Day-2There is something so refreshing and so liberating about hitting pause on your schedule and being spontaneous with your plan! For a schedule obsessor like myself, it’s especially freeing. In years past, our Gold Coin Days would typically be friends gathered around a fire all day long, chatting, snacking, and proposing toasts.

As parents, we’ve worked in a few Gold Coin Days here and there with Wyatt. It usually happens when we realize a day is off to a rocky start, we’re not on the same page as a family – not connecting – so we call it! We build a fire in the backyard, hit the hot tub, and just hang out. I know you’re thinking “…but what about commitments and responsibilities?” We never put ourselves in a situation where we would be disrespecting our plans or commitments, but honestly, you’ll come to realize that most stuff can wait a day.

I believe these types of days are so important for our relationships and connection with ourselves. Giving yourself that break is like a deep breath, and allows you to clock some amazing quality time with the ones you love.

Gold Coin Day-3As for Tim – he and his love Kyla are living in Costa Rica with their dog Wilson! He’s a retired firefighter and XPT Coach, and she’s a macrame artist with Wren Works. They both love to surf and are documenting their new life at The Surf Journey. Be sure to give check them out and give them a follow!
