Ep.42: How High Functioning Women Can Manage Stress and Prevent Self Abandonment with Dr. Kelly Kessler
Q: How do you begin to confront this self-abandonment? What was the easiest thing to start changing?

Ep.42: How High Functioning Women Can Manage Stress and Prevent Self Abandonment with Dr. Kelly Kessler
