May 14, 2025 · 38 min

One week ago, Maile heard water coming into the book shop through the ceiling. By the time she came back with a bucket, water was pouring down and pieces of the ceiling were coming with it.

Today we're talking about hitting low points during the pursuit of your dream, and what to do next.
