A sneak peek inside the episode:

“You get to choose if the day-to-day problems have power or not. And honestly, you have to ask yourself is it worth it? Is it really worth losing sleep over or stressing yourself out? One of the biggest life lessons I’ve had is when I’m focused on the problems, I block the solutions from my mind. But when you reframe it and look at every problem as an opportunity, suddenly solutions are endless.”
