214 – The Fifth Principle Truth of Life: First Be, Then Do

If your new car got stolen, would you laugh about it? I did. My truck was stolen a few weeks back and, this week, I’m sharing how I found humor and lessons in the incident, and how you can utilize the same level of acceptance to better navigate life’s unpredictable turns. Hallie and I then delve into the concept of ‘being’ versus ‘doing’ and discuss how these two states influence your personal growth, authenticity, and intentionality.
