All We Ever Want is More | Taking Control Week 2
Sep 19, 2020
Show notes
“If I just had a little more money, things would be fine.” Yeah, we’ve thought that too. Trouble is that it is dead wrong—how you control your money matters way more than how much you have of it.

Aug 15, 2020
Show notes
While we’re all trying to make sense of a world screaming at us through ads and news feeds, it’s easy to miss that there are human beings on the other end of all those messages—each with their own worries, doubts, fears, and hopes.
