But, in the moment, on a day-to-day basis, seems to fly in the face of who you are and what you stand for.” [12:10] To have your questions appear on the next Q&A, email us at support@productiveflourishing.com!   Mentioned in This Episode: SaneBox.com/Giant ProductiveFlourishing.com/guided-business-review/ ProductiveFlourishing.com/are-you-the-root-of-your-own-resistance/ Man’s Search for Meaning Email: support@productiveflourishing.com
