Today we are busting even more myths with the second episode in our myth-busting series. We're digging into why 'bad genetics' is a bad excuse. Listen in as Alex, Sue, and Austin talk about their own genetics, how we handle clients that believe this myth, and the power of your mindset.
As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Without further ado, let's get into today's episode.
