For decades, introversion was looked at as something to overcome, almost like an illness. The way to win in life was through charisma, outspokenness, and self-promotion. Even now, in an increasingly noisy world, introverts may feel added pressure to take one of two paths: force themselves into more extroverted behavior, or become even more reserved and shrink back to themselves. My guest Susan Cain says both paths are wrong and in fact, rob the world of the unique contributions introverts make when they choose to be true to themselves. Susan knows what she’s talking about. A self-proclaimed introvert, she wrote the New York Times bestselling book, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can't Stop Talking and delivered one of the most popular TED talks ever delivered, with nearly 18 million views to date. Whether you consider yourself an extrovert, an introvert, or an ambivert (those lucky bastards in the middle) you’ll find a ton of value in this interview.

Are you a giver or a taker? Have you ever struggled to find work/life balance? How do you build resilience in yourself, your team, or your children? I tackle these topics and many more in this interview with my special guest, Adam Grant. In this interview, we cover a lot, including: * How to tell if you are a giver or a taker (Spoiler: if you just told yourself you’re a giver, you might be in for a rude awakening) * How Adam filters down hundreds of ideas and opportunities to the select few he focuses on * How to tell if your business idea is a winner or a huge waste of time * Why “quick to start and slow to finish” is great advice for budding entrepreneurs * How to nurture creativity and resilience in your children (or team culture) * How to create positive competitive environments that bring out the best in people * Adam’s two core family values and how he instills them in his children * “Mental time travel” and how it can make you resilient to any challenge or obstacle * Why “how can I be more productive” is the wrong question to ask (and what to ask instead) * How Adam and I each address the topic of work/life balance And so much more.

Ed Latimore might be the most interesting person you'll ever meet. Ed is a professional heavyweight boxer, physics major, and philosopher. He's also the author of the cult-hit Not Caring What Other People Think Is a Superpower. If there's anything Ed feels like doing, he simply does it. This interview explores the physics of boxing, the value of a coach, and much of Ed’s hard-fought wisdom. You’ll discover: * How the painful end to a relationship lit a fire under Ed that hasn’t stopped burning * How Ed knows when he’s bitten off more than he can chew and needs to ease up on the accelerator * Why motivation is a terrible way to achieve great things (and what to do instead) * The unlikely way that Ed’s runaway best selling book came about * Why Ed thinks every person should step into the boxing ring at least once in their life * How people get stuck on the “dopamine treadmill” which feels productive but actually gets you nowhere (this is the kiss of death if you want to accomplish any important goal) * Ed’s brilliant philosophy on pain and suffering that will change the way you view hardships in your life * Ed’s somewhat controversial approach to coaching children and getting the very best out of them * The most important element of creating a positive habit (most people get this wrong) And more. After listening to this warrior poet, you won’t look at life the same again.

Marc Garneau is a Canadian politician, Engineer, and the Minister of Transport. This interview was recorded live in front of an audience in Montreal. As a bilingual country, you'll hear bits of French from the audience questions here and there but the interview is predominately in English. In this interview, we discuss the future of transportation (including self-driving cars), infrastructure investments, space, what it means to be a liberal in 2017, how we — as citizens — can judge an elected politician, how he ensures he's getting accurate information in a political system and so much more. Enjoy this amazing conversation. Go Premium: Members get early access, ad-free episodes, hand-edited transcripts, searchable transcripts, member-only episodes, and more.
