Summary
MSNBC and NBC news anchor Richard Lui talks to Zibby — but not about himself. Richard shares why he wanted to write a self-help book on how to be less selfish after he became a family caretaker following his father's Alzheimer's diagnosis, how working in journalism inspired him to form a team of 10 creatives to help write Enough About Me, and how he hopes this book will reach its intended audience of people willing to make more selfless changes in their lives.
