Backyard Breakthroughs Ep. 1: How to Set Boundaries and Why They Define How Others Treat Us
How a Maria and Keven late Sunday walk created the following 'Backyard Breakthroughs.' How 'walking and talking' yields far more than just talking. How surrendering old ways, trying new things and peeing on new trees could vastly improve your life. How anger and fear can both inspire AND limit you and what new means can inspire you better. How cutting back on everyday habits by as little as 10% and achieving minuscule wins now will help you achieve those huge goals, later. How and why to apply the art of behavior modeling. How being trapped in old dreams prevents us from living today's dreams. How our new antagonists are often just the old antagonists with a different name and face and how to prevent this (and them) from hurting us. How all of this will help you have the greatest week. Happy Monday Heal Squad.

What year does adulthood really kick in and why entering it affects you in ways you don't realize. What are physical and emotional foundations and why are they vital.
