Shelley and Erin join me today to discuss the sequel to my book, Only 10s, and share their thoughts on its latest version. We discuss what inspired me to write Only 10s 1.0, the true purpose behind the project, and how the first version has impacted the lives of others. We discuss the top 10 key ‘truths’ that come to life in Only 10s 2.0, how these truths organically surfaced, and how identifying these truths can help you move from a tactical mindset to a strategic one. We also discuss why I believe the Only 10s project is so successful for many people, my thoughts on self-help books, and how you can jumpstart your journey to living an Only 10s lifestyle.
