Our hope, of course, is that these new changes feel good and you’ll want to continue
some or all of them indefinitely.

2) Decide which commitment you’d like to make and the 1-3 actions you’ll take to fulfill the commitment for the next six weeks and complete the sign up form.
3) After submitting the form, you will receive six weekly emails to support you on your journey!
