You’re On A Spiral Staircase
I don’t think a single Abundance Practice-Building Group gets completed without me referencing the spiral staircase. This usually occurs in the 5th week of the group which is focused solely on money (and thus security and self-worth and all the other things we associate with it).

I totally agree with this blog post; I had no idea what was available to me as a grad student and may have started this process much earlier if I had.
