Summary

You don’t have to work at a news outlet to be a broadcaster. At least not according to former CBS News anchor Michele Gielan. She believes we’re all broadcasters in our own lives, and she wants everyone to be a positive broadcaster for themselves. Listen to her story and hear her explain how we’re all broadcasters in our every day lives, why we miss the meaning of certain moments, her 7 strategies for being more influential in a positive way, and more!


Michelle Gielan, national CBS News anchor turned positive psychology researcher, is the bestselling author of Broadcasting Happiness. Michelle holds a Master of Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania, and her research and advice have received attention from The New York Times, Washington Post, FORBES, CNN, FOX, and Harvard Business Review.
