Description

In this episode, I talk about the storm of a bad day.
I talk about the weight we carry when we expect every day to be OK all the time, the quiet damage of beating ourselves up, and the small things that can ease the load a bit.
This is a lookback on why it’s alright to feel low sometimes, how to share the struggle, and the simple truth that tomorrow always gives you another chance.
