Think Big Picture

Wouldn’t life be so much easier if our batting averages were always 100%? This week, Dr. Michael Brown and wedding photographer Jenna Greenawalt give us a framework for responding to failure, disappointment, and being told No.
Finish Your Degree
Pursuing a college degree may not be for everyone, but finishing what we start is one of the most essential ingredients of success.

Balance Is Impossible
We may be able to do it all, but we certainly can’t do it all today. This week, Dr. Michael Brown and Dr. Beau Johnson look toward a 2024 where we can be healthier and more alive.
