Jess Ekstrom joins Jana and Kristen to share some tips on how to positively reframe your mind when it comes to motivation and ambition. Jess conducts a “purpose” test to find the true reason we chase our goals. Are they rooted in a personal passion? Or are we chasing external validation? Plus, Jess helps clear up the illusion of dopamine, and why the journey to a goal is often a greater reward the finish line.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
