This week’s conversation is with Susan Cain, the author of the bestsellers Quiet Journal, Quiet Power: The Secret Strengths of Introverts, and Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking.Quiet has been translated into 40 languages, spent eight years on The New York Times best seller list, and was named the #1 best book of the year by Fast Company magazine, which also named Susan one of its Most Creative People in Business. Her record-smashing TED talk has been viewed over 40 million times, and was named by Bill Gates as one of his all-time favorite talks.Susan also has a new book, Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole, which is one of many reasons why I was excited to speak with her. We talk about what it really means to feel sorrow and longing as part of the human experience, as well as the power of introversion._________________Subscribe to our Youtube Channel for more powerful conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and meaning:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMastery" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMastery</a>Get exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors! Go to: <a href="https://findingmastery.com/sponsors/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://findingmastery.com/sponsors/</a>Subscribe to the Finding Mastery newsletter for weekly high performance insights: <a href="https://www.findingmastery.com/newsletter" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.findingmastery.com/newsletter </a>Download Dr. Mike's Morning Mindset Routine! <a href="https://www.findingmastery.com/morningmindset" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.findingmastery.com/morningmindset</a>Follow us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/findingmastery/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmichaelgervais/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>, and <a href="https://x.com/michaelgervais" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X</a>.See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
