Summary

Paula is reuniting with her former Good Morning America co-host, Dan Harris, who recently left ABC News after more than 20 years. He is taking his own leap of faith, pursuing the “Ten Percent Happier” company he co-founded, which focuses on creating a healthier and happier you through meditation. Dan gets candid about the challenges of starting a company and the toll of trying to juggle it all. The two friends reminisce about their days behind the anchor desk, how they both gained the courage to leave behind something they loved to pursue their callings, and how their friendship has grown stronger despite sharing very different outlooks on polarizing subjects.
