This sentence from a podcast recommended to me by a strong woman still resonates. How often do we let our environment slow us down, influence us negatively?

Don’t worry, it won’t be philosophical. About 15 years ago, I was asked what the meaning of life was for me. Without thinking long and hard, the answer was: procreation.
