In this vault episode, I chat with Gretchen Rubin, a renowned author of multiple bestsellers including The Four Tendencies, Better Than Before, and The Happiness Project. Her books have been widely read and translated into over thirty languages, selling almost three million copies worldwide. Gretchen co-hosts the award-winning podcast Happier with Gretchen Rubin alongside her sister Elizabeth Craft, where they discuss happiness and good habits. She has been recognized as one of the Most Creative People in Business by Fast Company and is a member of Oprah’s SuperSoul 100.
Our conversation centers around The Four Tendencies, delving into which tendency I may align with (and even my wife’s), how to fully embrace your own tendency to thrive, and more. I hope you enjoy listening to our discussion as much as I did!
