LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE ON SOUNDWISE Nature has seasons. Your body and energy system have cycles. They exist for a good reason. On your journey to fulfill your purpose on earth, there’re also cycles. I call them “dharma cycles”. The dharma cycle consists of three phases– transformation, transition, and service. Your job in each phase of the cycle is different. And when you’re aware of the phase you are in and align your actions with…

In this video, I talk about–obviously–whether “working on yourself” is a useful pursuit. Hint: the answer is yes and no, because I’m excellent at dodging questions. I also talk about: why…
