Summary

Joe is my guest this week. He’s fifty-eight years old, his marriage of twenty-five years has ended, and he lost his corporate standing. He had a toe amputated as a result of diabetes, and now he has limited mobility, and none of his friends will walk with him. He wants to walk on the beach without a cane. Is it true that he can’t? I love that you have tuned in. Let’s walk this concept together and see what’s possible and what’s not. Welcome to The Work.
