This episode is all about when life feels entirely out of control. Previous episodes have focused on learning to live life through the lens of "discovery."

Matt shows the consequences of a life without a focus on maintenance. Do you sometimes experience life as if it is an incredible mountain to climb? Do you feel like you are continuously having to clean up messes in your own life? Do you feel as if life has you by the throat? Chances are that these experiences are from a lack of focus on maintenance. 

Listen, feel empathy, and now take action!
