We spoke about the changes WFH has brought to our health and how we can develop a holistic approach to not only be more healthy but to be more productive, energetic, and focused to push harder and go farther.

1. Developing a better workspace to eliminate distractions
2. What low-hanging fruit you can look at first to make changes
