Things continue to be incredibly intense in our country and our world these days.\\xa0 And, if we want to make a difference, have impact, and create real change, we have to get in the \\u201cgame.\\u201d\\xa0 In other words, we need to put ourselves out there, take action, and actually do things that align with our values and our desires for change, growth, and success.\\xa0 Doing this takes courage and a willingness to fail.\\xa0 Simultaneously, we can\\u2019t be in the game all the time or we will burn ourselves out.\\xa0 We have to take time to rest, re-charge, and rejuvenate, which is something I\\u2019ve been struggling with recently, but is so important.\\xa0 We talk about these important dynamics on this episode.
