The Power of Presence for High Achievers and Entrepreneurs

The "Slight Shifters" dive into the profound impact of being truly present in life's most significant moments. Drawing from a weekend of major milestones, including a high-stakes NCAA tournament game and a "wedding of the century" Angela and Chris explore how disconnecting from our devices allows us to anchor "core memories" into our subconscious. By making the slight shift from capturing life through a lens to experiencing it with our own eyes, we create internal high-definition "videos" that last an eternity.
