Fleet has an incredible story and philosophy to share. At the age of 35, he was sentenced to 30 years in prison. After getting over the initial devastation, Fleet used his sentence as an opportunity to take radical responsibility for every area of his life. Since then, he has gone on to earn a PhD, launch multiple initiatives including: the Heart Mind Institute, the Prison Dharma Network, the National Prison Hospice Association, and train people all over the world in his unique approach to mindfulness and emotional intelligence. In this conversation, you’ll learn: — What basic goodness is and how understanding this is central to wellbeing — How Fleet transformed his time behind bars into invaluable learning experiences that ultimately helped him to contribute more to the world — How Mindfulness-Based Emotional Intelligence can aid recovery — The role that a basic service orientation can have in recovery and flourishing in life.
