Everything I needed to hear!

This was a great episode. I've already started my deep dive but feel as though this episode gave me a few more things to ponder and hash out. I love the idea of looking for a place that will suit the best version of myself versus "what's hot right now."

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
