Reality-Based Leadership

I almost can't put into words how excited I am to have the incredible Martha Beck on my podcast today. This is someone I look up and have learned so much from, and I'm so happy to have her on today's episode.  We talked about a wide variety of topics, from her theory of fractals in your inner life to integrity within the self. A fascinating conversation. Hope you enjoy.  Please leave a rating and a review wherever you're listening - those ratings mean a lot to us and help other people find the podcast!
