Wouldn’t it be nice to feel like you’ve won the lottery every day, regardless of your external circumstances? This week, Hallie and I discuss what consciousness feels like and how it plays into leadership and playing in the business part of the world. We talk about how to get to the state where you are okay with everything that is happening and stepping in to witness consciousness. We talk about the idea that all life is suffering, and why that can actually help us have fun and just enjoy the ride.
