Hi Katie, happy birthday! Whilst all of the episodes have been very informative, the most transformative was Ep4 going from Doing to Being. Think it was a case of right time, right place, right headspace. It all clicked and now I conscientiously work and think differently as a consequence. Many thanks Owen Warlond
