Gay Hendricks, author of the new book, The Genius Zone, and the bestselling classic, The Big Leap, thinks a lot about how we thrive. For over four decades, he’s narrowed his focus on the life-altering practice of helping people reach their potential through discovering their Genius Zone. When we’re there, life feels filled with wonder, surprise, joy, meaning, fulfillment and curiosity. In essence, we thrive.
In our conversation, we discuss:
- Finding your Genius Zone;
- Fear and how we can move through it;
- What it means to have an “upper limit” problem;
- The importance of surprise and wonder in our lives.
I LOVED interviewing Gay! You can listen to our conversation wherever you stream podcasts (Apple, Spotify, iHeart Radio) or listen here:
