  • More Thinking About Thinking with Brené Brown and Adam Grant: Part Two
    Jul 2 2024

    In Part 2 of our conversation, Brené Brown, Adam Grant, and I continue our journey of out loud self-reflection.

    We discuss identifying our values, the two types of narcissists, explanation-based parenting, and exercising judgment over our own judgment.

    Listen to Part 1 here or wherever you listen to podcasts.

    This...is A Bit of Optimism.

  • Thinking About Thinking with Brené Brown and Adam Grant: Part One
    Jun 25 2024

    To become more self-aware, sometimes you need a friend. Two friends is even better.

    Brené Brown and Adam Grant swing by the podcast for one of our trademark conversations with no plan. It turns into a deep dive about knowing our selves and how self-reflection is sometimes best done with others. What's a little metacognition between friends?

    This...is A Bit of Optimism.

  • The War On The Young with Professor Scott Galloway
    Jun 18 2024

    Building wealth is an unequal pursuit. Scott Galloway believes no one is getting more screwed financially than young people.

    Scott argues what the U.S. is doing to the economic future of its youth is nothing less than a war on the young. The massive transfer of wealth from young to old is a topic he explores in his new book The Algebra of Wealth.

    I was delighted to have Prof G back on the show to share what's been on his mind lately, and enjoyed veering far off topic to discuss love, money, and the nature of true friendship.

    This...is A Bit of Optimism.

Love Simon Sinek

I find Simon so inspirational to listen to - no matter how many times I hear the same lectures/ted talks I love his optimism, consistency in his approach to inspiring in leadership.

So lovely to hear him chatting to other such amazingly successful people.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
