EP65 | Who Am I? | Part Three (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some of the most important questions we can ask ourselves are also some of the simplest: Who am I? Who am I today, and how have I changed from the person I was years ago? What choices am I making today that might shape the person I become tomorrow? There are no shortage of questions when it comes to understanding ourselves. And taking an honest look at who we are isn’t always easy. It takes time, reflection, and a willingness to be honest with ourselves. In this podcast, we’ll explore some quest

Read excerpt
One of the most important questions we can ask ourselves is also one of the simplest: “Who am I?” The answer goes deeper than our job, our relationships, our interests, or the roles we play in everyday life.

Read excerpt
"If I am 98% perfect in everything I do, it will be the 2% I remember when all is through." For many people, one small mistake can overshadow dozens of successes.
