When I was in high school, I wanted to be an architect. Turned out I was more interested in the people inside buildings than the buildings themselves. The creative part of me deeply is a writer. If I really want to understand something, I write about it even if it's just for myself. And then I think that marriage of visual and then also understanding the quantitative side of something doesn't happen often enough. It should feel like warm and engaging and fun and it should make you laugh so that you treat it with the same affection that you hopefully now treat your emotions with. A big part of it on both ends was we want to take down this idea that emotion doesn't belong in
Today, in a special bonus episode, we bring you a live conversation between Liz Fosslien and Mollie West Duffy, authors of “No Hard Feelings: The Secret Power of Embracing Emotions at Work,” and our curator Susan Cain. They discuss over-sharing, crying at work, psychological safety, and mocktails that taste like your first kiss.
