Summary

Today's episode is a classic segment from GaryVeeTV! People are being confused and manipulated into unhappiness by society's rules and the arbitrary expectations of the people around them. Who says you need to own a home and be married with children by 30? Nothing is going to happen to you if you don't do those things but believing you need to and not achieving is causing tons of unnecessary stress and unhappiness.

Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
