Really enjoyed my conversation with Bill Gross on the importance of end-of-life-planning. We talked about tools to make those conversations easier. We also talked about my book:

Taking intentional deep breaths anytime can help bring down your blood pressure and help alleviate stress. It is also a highly recommended practice right before entering a conversation to manage conflict. By me. I highly recommend it! 🧘‍♂️

Deep breathing can be a simple and effective way to reduce stress. But many people don’t think about how they’re inhaling and exhaling at work. Maybe they should.
