This uncertainty could breed a deeper frustration, and one more “soulpreneur” book or “just do it” podcast could have you throwing in the towel completely. Pause right here—chances are, you're just in your own way, running an outdated operating system that isn’t computing with all the new technologies that are available on the planet. In this session, Vanessa Feils, Life Stylist, will take you on a MindTravel Meditation journey to update your hardware.
