In this episode of Monkey Chatter, we're diving into Jeff Krasno's book Good Stress!


Join us as we explore the book's insights, from Krasno's unique writing style (get ready for a ton of dad jokes and big words!) to the crucial distinction between "hard" and "uncomfortable" that we make in our discussion!
