467. The River of Misery (Encore)

Jody Moore
About this episode

The River of Misery is that short but often difficult period of time where you're struggling the hardest with whatever you're trying to achieve. Whether you're trying to communicate differently with your spouse, stop yelling at your kids, or start eating better, we first need to decide we want to change, then we go through the pain of actually doing it.

 

Tune in this week to discover the secret to doing hard things. I discuss why crossing The River of Misery is an essential part of personal growth, and you'll learn how to cross The River of Misery and push through the challenges so you can experience what's waiting for you on the other side.
