#106 - Surviving & Doing the WORK with Ellie Lee

Oh hi there, financial instability, existential crises (not just one, but 50), isolation, loneliness & uncertainty! So great hanging out with you all day, every dang day with no clear indication of when all this stress may start to ease up.  Hopefully you're not sitting in that headspace too much, but JUST IN CASE that you find yourself in a rough patch, we are here for you. You are not alone. In this episode, Minji sits down with her friend, actor/host Ellie Lee, to unload & evaluate how to proceed through turmoil with sanity, purpose & dignity even when everything feels like it's falling apart. With two very turbulent lives leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic, they have some real-life strategies & some hardcore inner work to fill you in on. You ready? From learning how to check our fear-based egos at the door to asking better questions to yield better results, it's time to get to work. Together, WE. WILL. GET. THROUGH. THIS.
