In this episode, we answer listener questions about working on weaknesses, combating habits derailing progress, and deepening connections with significant others.

We also share personal experiences and advice on balancing pushing kids without over-scheduling, reflecting on legacy, and prioritizing meaningful moments.

Specific questions we’re answering:

📍 How do you maintain good habits and routines when struggling with depression?

📍 How can you make others understand the importance of reconnecting with your partner when they don't see anything wrong in their busy lives?

📍 To work on weaknesses in the gym, should I focus on 2-3 specific things before each training session or cycles of one specific thing I’d train at least three times per week?

📍 Should parents prioritize their children's busy schedules and extracurricular activities to teach executive functioning, teamwork, and time management skills - or is there a risk of burning them out and over-scheduling them? What are your thoughts on the matter?
