Have you ever felt or experienced any of these?

If you answered “yes, “ there’s a good chance you’ve experienced an energy leak. An energy leak is when we’re expending energy in ways that cause an energetic deficit.

As she said that, I felt my throat tighten, and my first thought was,
“Crap! $100 worth of energy isn’t enough for a 24-hour period. I better be careful how I spend it.”
