Wiggle Room Podcast: Episode 69

How Do You Keep Yourself Grounded When Doing The Work? + I Hate To Feel Powerless + The Work Is Preventive Medicine

In this episode of the Wiggle Room Podcast, we discuss an interesting question about how to stay grounded when doing The Work—in this case, getting too attached to one step of growth and not being open to the next. Then, another participant does The Work on “I hate to feel powerless” regarding owing a lot of money in taxes.

You can also listen to this podcast wherever you get your podcasts. If you’re new to podcasts, here’s a review article by PCMagazine on the best podcast apps to use.
