Listen "A bad workman blames his tools"
Episode Synopsis
Ever catch yourself blaming external factors when things don’t go as planned? In this episode, I share a real-life story of getting my floor redone—and how it turned into a lesson about responsibility, defense mechanisms, and the classic saying, “a bad workman blames his tools.” We dive into how projecting blame can affect not just us, but our relationships too, and why taking ownership is so empowering. If you’re ready to stop pointing fingers and start leveling up—this episode is for you.
