About this episode
Sometimes we have to have tough conversations with ourselves. Are we being too soft? Or do we have to dig deeper and figure out what the real problem is? Today, we look at race excitement, how we can thrive, and making the best decisions for our own satisfaction. We can't optimize everything, so we have tough choices. Often it's better to remove something than add more to your life. Marketing to insecurities and the power of ignorance. Topics: Fake it till you make it How tough is your life?
