Robert Vallerand has written a very interesting book called: The Psychology of Passion: A Dualistic Model. In it, he presents research suggesting that there are two types of passion: harmonious passion and obsessive passion. The distinction between the two has important implications for topics such as burnout, stress, flow, and creativity.

In this episode, we discuss Vallerand's work and consider the important implications for our work life. We also look for possible connections between the two types of passion and our faith and spirituality.
