Gretchen Rubin is a NYTimes best selling author and one of today’s most influential and thought-provoking observers of happiness and human nature. In this Chat episode, she shares the details of her journey from law clerk of Sandra Day O'Connor to her current role as author, podcast host, App creator and more. Learn how she transitioned to life as a full-time writer and how she navigated structuring her business so that she can remain focused on creating, not managing.
This episode is a roadmap for all the creatives and dreamers that are considering leaving their day-to-day behind and following their dreams. Gretchen's "Life in Five Senses" is the perfect book pairing to the episode for those seeking to get out of their head and back into the moment.
