Episode Summary
In yesterday’s episode I mulled over the need to let go of my old story and start living my life today. In effect I need to develop a new story. The trouble is, I don’t know what that story is.
So having thought about it overnight, I put together a list of attributes and skills that I think I’ll probably need. In this episode I that list and explain why I think I need them.
