Drawing inspiration from James Clear's book 'Atomic Habits', Stoller unpacks how small, consistent actions can build good habits and break bad ones.

But it’s not just about habits; Stoller also delves into emotional sobriety.

Through his own journey with addiction, he emphasizes the value of facing struggles head-on.
