EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Award-winning neuroscientist and entrepreneur, Anne-Laure Le Cunff, discusses her book "Tiny Experiments: How to Live Freely in a Goal-Obsessed World"— a transformative guide for living a more experimental life, turning uncertainty into curiosity, and carving a path of self-discovery. Based on ancestral philosophy and the latest scientific research, the book provides a desperately needed reframing. Readers will replace the old linear model of success with a circular model of growth in which goals are discovered, pursued, and adapted—not in a vacuum, but in conversation with the larger world.
