Episode #67: Taking Ownership of Our…Stuff!

Summary: On this episode of the Act To Live Podcast, Scott and Jaime talk about ownership - why might it be easier to ‘own’ something that went well or we’re proud of than to ‘own’ something that didn’t go well or that upset another person? Why do many of us have the tendency to ‘own’ things that we have no role in or control over? The duo discusses the complex nature of ownership and ways that we can take one step forward in owning our ‘stuff.’  Action Event of the Week: Try any or all of the following - 1) take ownership for something that went well; 2) take ownership of thing that did not go well; 3) let go of your tendency to own things that you have no control over.
