Aaron and Dave talk through the issues of behavior changes. The first stage was to realize we had to get over the fact that things had changed forever, now we have to work through the void of not knowing what is ahead.
Will we swing in behavior from the far right and go to the far left? They talk about that and where the middle will be in the coming months.
