Today I’d like to introduce you to a tool that has helped me so much show up in the world as my best self, in a way that supports my goal of making the world a better place: a rockin’ teacher.

Your ability to succeed is directly related to your happiness, to your confidence, and to your courage. While walking along the conventional path of scholarly knowledge, I highly recommend that you simultaneously learn how to manage your mind.
