At the time of this episode, I was struggling with post-nasal drip, which causes sore throats, coughs, etc.  It's like a faux-flu, without actually having the flu. It knocks you down and kicks your motivation out the window.  As a driven leader, I want to move the needle forward daily, but sometimes, your body says otherwise.
