lots of lightbulb moments

As lots of other Uncharted episodes, this one made me realize the root of some previously vague issues I was dealing with on the road to the perfect (or close to it) life balance..

No soapbox?

I was really hoping Stephanie would talk more about her list of action steps! Also, would it be possible to link the Banfield study you mentioned?
