I was quoted in a recent New York Times op-ed entitled, “Do Not Bring Your ‘Whole Self’ to Work.”  While I appreciated being mentioned in this piece, as you can imagine, I disagree with it on many levels.  On this episode, I talk about some of the misconceptions and challenges of bringing our whole selves to work.  I also discuss some of the specific reasons why it's important to do so these days.
