About this episode

In Part 2 of our conversation, Brené Brown, Adam Grant, and I continue our journey of out loud self-reflection.

We discuss identifying our values, the two types of narcissists, explanation-based parenting, and exercising judgment over our own judgment. 

Listen to Part 1 here or wherever you listen to podcasts.

This...is A Bit of Optimism.
