Ken and I talk about the time he got drunk and lost his corporate job, the time he lost everything in the dotcom collapse, and how his self-worth was tied to his net worth and what he finally learned from that. We also talk about meaning in life, our beliefs and their relationship to reality, our long history of being "biologically human," leadership, communication, presentation, the power of the word and public speaking. We all need connection, community, and meaning - and it's very fun to talk with Ken about all of this. He mentions Marissa Pier and we talk about "incantations." He also mentions Recovery 2.0 by Tommy Rosen. Ken shares a lot of his Insightful Vulnerability™ and I follow suit talking about my Mormon upbringing, ice cream and alcohol, losing my dotcom company and more. It's a wonderful conversation and I think you'll really enjoy!
