EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Shortly after obtaining a degree in business, Jay Shetty decided to become a monk. Not only was this an unusual move, but it was met with strong disapproval from both family and friends. Still, Jay felt compelled to follow this calling, and today Jay is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, hosts a leading health podcast, and is lauded as a mindfulness leader by millions of people around the world. In this episode, Jay tells Alex about feeling completely lost at multiple times in his career, and how holding true to his values helped navigate his way through immense imposter syndrome and nearly running out of money. #jayshetty #impostersyndrome #morningbrew For more info on our presenting sponsor, check out https://www.sakara.com/imposters.
