Why Your Solo Hustle is a Trap (And What to Do Instead) https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-currency-of-connection-stripping-away-the-hustle--70588381 We’ve all been sold a lie about what it takes to be successful, and honestly, it’s wearing us out.

It was designed to help the members stay in shape, and also develop their focus. In the early days the family would go to the woods at least 4 times a year and walk through them.
