IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: My advice videos usually present a number of different possibilities and suggestions, some of which may be more relevant to your situation than others. Please ensure that you TAKE WHAT RESONATES AND LEAVE THE REST.
None of the advice I offer is intended to be taken as gospel, and when I suggest certain exercises or mindset shifts, I am offering them to people GENERALLY rather than to you SPECIFICALLY.
I don’t know your personal situation and my advice videos are therefore not made with you in mind. What might be great advice for one person to try might be terrible advice for you! You are ultimately responsible for your actions and decisions.
