This week's conversation is with the inspiring New York Times best-selling author and internationally renowned speaker Daniel Pink. Daniel brings a wealth of knowledge and insight into this episode based on his decades of writing and research. Although the main purpose of our conversation was to unpack the themes related to his latest New York Times best-seller The Power of Regret- How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward, we spend a fair chunk of our discussion initially talking about:

• Early days in Daniel's life and the type of learner he was
• How his experience living and researching in Japan led to him writing one of his books (The Adventures of Johnny Bunko- The Last Career Guide You Will Ever Need)
• Life lessons he has come to learn through his work and research

Talking about the above themes in Daniel's life helped to pave the way for an in-depth discussion about his latest best-seller. In the second half of this podcast we dove into the following themes: 

• What sparked his desire to write his latest best-seller The Power of Regret- How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward
• The four core regrets that this book is structured around
• The three-step process he shares in his book to help people proactively work through regrets in their lives
• What he is most proud of having given to the world through his work

What strikes me about this conversation is Daniel's authenticity and personable way in which he communicates and connects. He has devoted his life to helping provide clarity to people around some of life's most challenging obstacles by consistently sharing, in his books, very useful, practical, researched-based strategies that are applicable in every day life.

According to Daniel Pink:
"Regret is not dangerous or abnormal, a deviation from the steady path to happiness. It is healthy and universal, an integral part of being human."

Hope you enjoy my discussion with Daniel Pink. Thank you for tuning in and for sharing this episode with anyone who you feel will benefit from listening to it.
