Far too often we let our family, friends, and society discourage us from doing the very thing that would make us the happiest. Usually our loved ones have good intentions, but as Chris Guillebeau says, you can’t ignore your dreams for very long without letting them die.

This episode is all about dream killers--the people, thought patterns, and norms that try to crush our dreams. We'll talk about where these things come from, the role they play in our lives, and how to conquer them.

Also in this episode, Brandon had finally broken free of Jacksonville and moved to New Orleans. He may have arrived at his dream city, but the dream life had never been farther away.
