Finding your Tribe with Amy Cuddy

We all want to feel like we belong. We feel safe surrounded by people who see the world the way we see it. This is why we all have to find our tribe.

A Lot of Optimism (Or The One Where I Met Andy Grammer)

Episode 15

A Lot of Optimism (Or The One Where I Met Andy Grammer)

Where does optimism come from? I think it comes from an innate sense that the future is bright. Andy Grammer, an incurable optimist, thinks it starts with pain. I love his point of view. This is not a Bit of Optimism. This is… A Lot of Optimism.

Second Chances with Bruce Deel

Episode 13

Second Chances with Bruce Deel

It’s often easier to learn lessons when we look at extreme cases. I turned to the military to understand trust. To learn about compassion, I turned to Bruce Deel. He’s an extraordinary man and the second chances his organization, City of Refuge, gives people can teach the rest of us how we can do the same.

Extreme listening are two words that don’t usually go together. But there is no other way to describe what Deeyah Khan does.
