I had been meaning to do an episode based upon this phrase after reading it in Brene Brown’s book “Dare to Lead.” And then I got an email about an article in the NY Times talking about the same thing (it’s a sign!). Very often we make assumptions about what happened, what someone is thinking, why someone did or didn’t do something. The problem is that often we don’t really know why someone did or didn’t do something, or their motivations. The story we tell ourselves is very often different than the others are seeing the same thing.

Listen to this new 9-minute episode for some ideas on how you can understand the story you’re telling yourself.
