Ep. 31: The Courage to Be Disliked
The title of the book we're discussing this week is provocative—The Courage to Be Disliked—and that's one reason we picked it. It's intrigued many others, too: it's sold more than 3.5 million copies.
Jerome and Laura talk about some of the essential pieces of advice in this fascinating book that's based on the theories of Alfred Adler, one of the three giants of nineteenth-century psychology alongside Freud and Jung. Come have a listen!

Ep. 30: The Way of Integrity by Martha Beck
Martha Beck is the OG of life coaches and is one of Oprah's favorite gurus. Her latest book takes on a core belief: Much of what plagues us--people pleasing, staying in stale relationships, negative habits--all point to what happens when we are out of touch with what truly makes us feel whole.
She uses Dante's classic hero's journey, The Divine Comedy, along with powerful stories from her own life, as the framework to teach us how to find our own way back to integrity. Laura and Jerome find a nugget that will help you share this powerful work with your own kids.

Ep. 29: The 25th Anniversary of Emotional Intelligence
Today we're celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the OG self-help book, Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman. Jerome and Laura talk about how Goleman's groundbreaking idea—that EQ (emotional intelligence quotient) is more important than IQ to a person's success—has changed how we raise our kids and how we can teach kids to be the person other people want to be with versus cracking the whip about getting all As.
