Rushing Slowly
The art of getting ahead by slowing down.
We’re more stressed, burnt out and anxious than ever, mental health is at an all time low. But for some of us, we’re not willing to sacrifice our aspirations, and we get stuck between a desire to feel well and our unwavering drive for success.
Join us, Zoe Klein & Megan Waters as we learn how to rush a little slower.
