In Episode Nine, I remind you to call your mom. That is it. In this episode, we drew a phone in the video and literally the only thing we said to do is call your mom. Usually, these posts are a two minute read. Take the next minute and a half to give your mom a ring. Tell her you’re thinking of her and that you love her.

See you in the next episode!
