Life throws a lot at us and, while there is no magic bullet, creating efficiency can help to break down some boundaries that impede our ability to be present in our day to day lives. Listen as Jeff Boyd, Founder of MTE (More Than Energy), and I discuss how removing the barriers to having fun makes for a life filled with greater happiness and tranquility. Jeff talks about the work and branding that went into creating his product, a wellness shot – boosting your mood and energy, and ultimately leading to more fun. If I can help ease your financial stress and break down a barrier for you, reach out to me at Emily.Grace@bernstein.com.
