Episode description

Todd Kashdan is an intellectual idol of mine. He has a PhD in clinical psychology, is the founder of the Well-Being Lab at George Mason University, and a leading educator to the public. He's written books on curiosity, negative emotions, and the art of insubordination. His writings alone have influenced the trajectory of my life and career.


In this episode, we explore the underpinnings of curiosity, how to manage social anxiety, and the reason relationships fail (and why that's okay).
