This week we lost actor Matthew Perry. While he's best known for his role as Chandler Bing on the classic sitcom FRIENDS, he had a completely different legacy that he wanted to leave behind. In this week's episode, I share one of the most valuable lessons I think we can learn from Matthew's life, and one that I think he would want us all to know.
