Have you ever noticed that most of us live in survival mode instead of living in creation mode? Is it possible to overcome the negative consequences of chronic stress? We discuss this in today’s episode!

Survival vs Creation

Why do we get in our own way? Most of us can detect certain major themes or beliefs in our lives that keep resurfacing regularly. And sometimes, these beliefs get in the way of growth and success. They’re a bit like moving sand - the more we struggle with them, the deeper we sink.
