EPISODE DESCRIPTION
To become more self-aware, sometimes you need a friend. Two friends is even better. Brené Brown and Adam Grant swing by the podcast for one of our trademark conversations with no plan. It turns into a deep dive about knowing ourselves and how self-reflection is sometimes best done with others. We also discuss identifying our values, the two types of narcissists, explanation-based parenting, and exercising judgment over our own judgment. What’s a little metacognition between friends? This is...A Bit of Optimism.
