Summary

Do you ever get the feeling like you’re telling the same story over and over again? The details may change (new boss, new partner, new hometown) but the cycle of the story stays the same.

I’ll share my own experience with finding myself in this rut and talk about how to move when you’re ready to finally make an edit.

0:52.9	episode. But there's some element of
0:55.0	truth to the fact that this first draft of our story is the truth of the story. And sometimes
