135. Embrace the Suck
Today I'm sharing two big reasons why you need to embrace the suck.

There is no perfect way to do this, and willing to stay present is a skill that will help you embrace the other 50% that is full of joy and happiness.Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/135
