Summary

Today’s bonus episode is all about the heart vs head dilemma, how do you know when to trust your gut and when to step back and stick to the facts?

It’s a theme that came up in our Monday episode with Adrienne Adhami, I’ve got so many messages in the few days since it has gone live and then as I was doing some further reading off the back of these messages, I came across an article that took my thoughts on this even further, so I thought we could sit down for a follow up bonus episode to really get further into it.
