59: Knowing Me, Knowing You (Understanding) w/ Gretchen Rubin

Have you ever heard of The Golden Rule? If you have, you may realize that while it sounds nice, it has a pretty significant flaw in it. In this episode, we expose that flaw and go on an exploration to try and fix it.  We are joined in this journey by author, speaker, and fellow podcaster Gretchen Rubin. Her new book, The Four Tendencies, provides us with a personality framework we can apply to better understand ourselves and others. In addition, we have an Explorer of the Week from Germany and a brand new #WTSdigs. Get our BRAND NEW newsletter by joining our mailing list at www.wheretheressmoke.co.

Om Podcasten

Where There's Smoke explores self-development through the filter of current events, pop culture, and experience. We surf the zeitgeist through an array of audio clips, quotes, concepts, and conversations. In the spirit of The Daily Show and This American Life, we throw everything into an audio centrifuge that separates “what” from “why”. You walk away with insights and actionable solutions to improve your business, relationships, and almost any area of your life.
