The Meeting Agenda for This Week's ACT Conferences

[Guest guest]

I'd figured I should share with my viewers the agenda so as to receive your feedback and even contribute to it. I apologize though that I post it in such short notice but it took me awhile to form it. Any case without further ado, here it is:

How do you struggle with them (whether overtly or covertly)?What is the short-term effect? What is the long-term effect?How effective do you think your coping strategy really is?
