05/17/23 • 8 min
Alo Johnston, LMFT, continues week three with an honest check-in on our current goals’ alignment with our values. It’s great if goals and values are a good fit, but even if the two don’t quite match, Alo shares an exercise on using practical pivots when facing roadblocks, instead of quitting entirely.
