This week we are excited to share our AW Member Q+A with Ben Detlor. Ben came to us after coming across an article on procrastination that we wrote for Business Insider. What we loved about Ben is he recognized a solution to a problem that he was having and he took action. He worked in a private with AW Coach, Amanda Hogberg, on developing healthy work and personal habits, feeling physically good, and being more organized. Check out his answers to the Q+A below and learn more about this motivated young man.
