EPISODE DESCRIPTION

When life gets tough, true friends ask for help. Christina Tosi is that kind of friend. She’s someone I can trust with anything and someone I can cry with. She also happens to be a world-class pastry chef, a genius dessert maker, and the founder and CEO of Milk Bar. We reflect on the art of asking for help and how sometimes all we need from a true friend is 8 minutes of their time. This…is A Bit of Optimism. For more on Christina and her work, check out: http://christinatosi.com/ http://milkbarstore.com/ And, by the way, I wanted to share Christina’s recipe for making an Ice Cream Loaf. It’s magic. You will need:

  • 2 cups (1 pint) of softened ice cream
  • 1 cup of self-rising flour
  • 1 egg

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a loaf pan and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the melty ice cream, self-rising flour, and egg. Do not overmix.
  3. Pour the batter into loaf pan.
  4. Bake for 45 minutes or until toothpick clean.

Enjoy. + + + Simon is an unshakable optimist. He believes in a bright future and our ability to build it together. Described as “a visionary thinker with a rare intellect,” Simon has devoted his professional life to help advance a vision of the world that does not yet exist; a world in which the vast majority of people wake up every single morning inspired, feel safe wherever they are and end the day fulfilled by the work that they do. Simon is the author of multiple best-selling books including Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, Together is Better, and The Infinite Game. + + + Website: http://simonsinek.com/ Live Online Classes: https://simonsinek.com/classes/ Podcast: http://apple.co/simonsinek Instagram: https://instagram.com/simonsinek/ Linkedin: https://linkedin.com/in/simonsinek/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/simonsinek Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/simonsinek Simon’s books: The Infinite Game: https://simonsinek.com/books/the-infinite-game/ Start With Why: https://simonsinek.com/books/start-with-why/ Find Your Why: https://simonsinek.com/books/find-your-why/ Leaders Eat Last: https://simonsinek.com/books/leaders-eat-last/ Together is Better: https://simonsinek.com/books/together-is-better/ + + + #SimonSinek
