The Baby Effect - What is it?!
Monday May 18, 2020
Monday May 18, 2020
Today's topic has no one official definition. We discuss what "The Baby Effect" is to us. That moment when your little one is born, and the "Oh crap" and motivation come up that tells you its time to start that business you always wanted to.
On the reverse of that coin, its also that downed feeling we get when we see our lives are changing. We see our social lives diminish, and things we once did, now go to back.
Sit back, and hear what Dave and Ryan are saying. Take it in, reflect on your own thoughts and how this is relating to your situation today.
Change happens one day at a time, together, we become fearless!
