Imagine a relationship that feels so good, that it totally consumes you and everything in your life.
For Corban, when he is loving the work he’s doing, full of creativity, and he just feels good, he doesn’t want it to end, ever. But he realizes that a relationship shouldn’t completely consume you.
Tune in to hear what Corban’s soundtrack to work is, and how he integrates that into his personal life.
Key Takeaways
- If you are not quite sure where your relationship with work is or where that line is, get into your body and learn to feel it.

- Outsource and trust good employees to take the load off of you. You don’t have to control every detail.
