The Power of a Word | Discipline

In this episode, Dr. Amber Selking speaks with Redford Maust about the word discipline. Redford asked himself what will it look like in 10 years when he’s 80 years old? What does he want it to look like? He shares with Amber why these questions helped him choose discipline for his word of 2021 and how focusing on the word joy helped him get through 2020.
