Wisdom is the cumulation of valuable lessons we pick up along our journeys through this messy thing called life, and pearls of wisdom are guideposts to help us navigate the complexities of living in an uncertain world in an uncertain time.

On today's show: A conversation with author Dr. Elizabeth Kagan Arleo about trusting the wisdom of the experts — both modern and ancient — so as to better overcome life's challenges and improve overall well-being. 

Here's a preview of the wisdom we discuss today:

[1:30] First, eat your frog!

[4:00] Schedule your time in 168-hour chunks

[11:30] Set criteria, meet criteria, and be satisfied (no perfection required)

[18:00] Stop over-apologizing (seriously, stop it!)

[22:00] If you don't ask, the answer is always no

[27:00] Imposter Syndrome: Name it to tame it
