The Comfort Crisis is one of the most transformative books I’ve ever read and has completely changed how I approach my life and business. The author of that book, Michael Easter, joins me on this episode to break down key findings from his research, including how embracing discomfort actually boosts health and happiness. 

In our conversation, Michael gives the backstory to what inspires his research of the evolutionary need to be challenged and highlights what he’s learned from remote communities all over the world. Drop into this discussion and don’t forget to share your takeaways with us – I know you’ll have a ton!
