Update: 2020-12-07

Description

How would you define your best self?

Answering this question and then taking the steps to get there is a short summary of this conversation.

Using the basis of my guest, Forrest's, journey of becoming his "2.0 self" we dive into specific topics of things he has seen along the way, including but not limited to:

-Doing one thing at a time instead of taking on all at once; after all, it is a long life
-Defining one's authentic self
-Pros and cons of streaks
-The solitude of the inner journey
