International best-selling author, biohacker, flow guru, and animal rescuer are titles rarely strung together, yet they perfectly describe this week’s special guest, Steven Kotler. Steven joins veterinarian Dr. Ernie Ward and registered veterinary technician, Beckie Mossor, RVT to discuss his latest book, Last Tango in Cyberspace, how high-performing professionals can maximize their productivity, how animal rescue changed his life (thanks to his AMAZING wife Joy Nicholson), why his Pulitzer-nominated book “A Small Furry Prayer” should be read by EVERYONE in the pet and veterinary professions, and why empathy is perhaps our greatest veterinary superpower (and vulnerability). This is a wide-ranging, idea-catalyzing conversation that every team member will want to listen to in its entirety. Rarely do veterinary audiences get to have a sit-down with someone like Steven Kotler, so grab a cup of coffee or tea and strap yourself in!

NOTE: There is some swearing in this episode so if you’re uncomfortable with a few choice swear words, you might want to skip this one. Otherwise, we think it added to the conversation!
