This book is short, sharp, and painful both emotionally and physically. If you haven’t subjected yourself to it yet, give it a try!

I had three moles removed out of pocket and I don’t remember the exact amount but I remember being certain that I had gotten good value for my money. I’d shop around.

I’m not doing any invites for this call. Nothing wrong with invites, but this time I’m saving every spot for a story that just absolutely blows me away on its own merits. It could totally be yours.
