Summary

Neil Pasricha is a bestselling author and podcaster whose work focuses on topics core to all of our lives: gratitude, happiness, failure, resilience, and trust. He's the author of six books including The Book of Awesome, The Happiness Equation, Awesome Is Everywhere, and his latest book: You Are Awesome. 
 
In this episode:
  • We are too thin skinned. No matter how great our achievements, we're crushed by the simplest things. Neil shares some practical advice to navigate through pain and build resiliency
  • Always do something you're learning... Or as I like to say, how to give yourself permission to suck
  • There's a reason why they call something a "practice". We get into how to let go and allow yourself to be human.
  • and much more
