Nobody Told Me‪!‬ Jan Black & Laura Owens

Have you ever felt shame? Our guest on this episode, psychotherapist and media commentator Joseph Burgo, says shame is a family of emotions ranging from mild embarrassment to deep humiliation, and most of us experience varying degrees of shame every day. He teaches us how to recognize shame, control it, and use it to our advantage. He's the author of the book, 'Shame: Free Yourself, Find Joy, and Build True Self-Esteem'.  His website is http://www.josephburgo.com/

We're living at a time when the answer to almost any question you ask can be found with a quick computer search. However, we consume so much knowledge every day that we may wind up feeling frustrated when we can't recall the information we need when we need it. Our guest on this episode, Tiago Forte, is one of the world's foremost experts on productivity. He's developed a system to help us manage the vast amounts of knowledge with which we're surrounded every day. And he outlines that system in the book "Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential."  His website is https://fortelabs.com/
