Ever read a self-help book and wonder: what the f*ck do I do now? Alexis Rockley decided to cut the bullshit and provide actionable advice in her new book, "Find Your F*ck Yeah." We sit down with Alexis to explain why words like "joy" and "passion" are so heavy for creatives, and why forging a path to self-actualization requires not doing that sh*t alone! As a bonus, Puno shares her experience with stand-up classes, and the whole crew tries to figure out their ideal fun-to-work ratio.
