Thank you for joining me on another episode of Outgrow the Grind. Today's episode will be a little bit different than the other Season 2 episodes; this one will be about how Outgrow the Grind got me back in the grind (ironic, isn't it?) A few weeks ago, I decided to launch two episodes of Outgrow the Grind every week. I tried it, and after a few weeks, I realized that it isn't working for me, and it's time to change it. The realization of this has also brought me many meaningful lessons on fear, false expectations, self-permission, and of course, outgrowing the grind.
