Balancing Venting and Positive News

We talk about why it’s helpful to pay attention to how much time we spend

venting, versus not venting, to our family and friends. We also answer a listener’s

question about why SMART goals don’t work for Rebels, and share listeners’

creative responses to the “Habits for Happiness” quiz.
