From social disruptions like economic recessions, pandemics and new technologies, to individual disruptions like getting married, career transitions and becoming a parent, we undergo change in transformation, both good and bad, regularly. Change is not the exception, it's the rule. On today's program, we welcome Brad Stulberg, bestselling author of The Practice of Groundedness and his new book, Master of Change: How to Excel When Everything is Changing - Including You. While we endlessly fight change, often viewing it as a threat to our stability and sense of self, we can flip the script on its head. Brad's book offers a path for embracing and even growing from life's constant instability.
Drawing on cutting edge science, ancient wisdom, and daily practice, Stulberg offers concrete principles for developing a mindset called rugged flexibility, as well as habits and practices to implement it. Along the way, listeners will learn how to be in conversation with change instead of it happening to you. The importance of expectations, why cultivating a rugged yet flexible sense of self is key to a strong identity, and how to take productive action during uncertainty. I'm so excited to welcome Brad to the show today inside another episode of the Burleson Box.
