Q&A — Overstimulation, hyper-focus, headphones, marriage and more!

We’re backing up on questions again! This week we’re taking a raft of your questions and have some tools, tips, products, and solutions you might try for all of them. From re-tuning your brain from overstimulation and hyperfocus to marriage buckets, noise canceling headphones and so much more! If we didn’t get to your question, please know that we just ran out of time this week but we’ll get to it in a coming episode. Thank you for sharing and keep ‘em coming!
