    Tony Hsieh | Delivering Happiness: A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose

    Tony Hsieh visits Google to discuss his book "Delivering Happiness: A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose." Back in 1999, Tony Hsieh sold LinkExchange, the company he co-founded, to Microsoft for $265 million. He then joined Zappos as an adviser and investor, and eventually became CEO. In 2009, Zappos was listed as one of Fortune magazine's top 25 companies to work for, and was acquired by Amazon later that year in a deal valued at over $1.2 billion on the day of closing. In his book, Tony shares the different business lessons he learned in life, from operating a lemonade stand and a pizza business through LinkExchange, Zappos, and more. He shows how using happiness as a framework can produce profits, passion, and purpose – both in business and in life. Originally published in July of 2010.

    Dr. Tony Nader visits Google to discuss his book “Consciousness Is All There Is: How Understanding and Experiencing Consciousness Will Transform Your Life.”  Dr. Nader offers a direct path to peace for ourselves and our world that anyone can obtain—simply by delving into our own Consciousness. He provides the methods, tools, and guidance for connecting with our authentic inner nature and understanding how Consciousness is the essence of all existence, including addressing such fundamental questions as: What is the key to a well-lived, flourishing life in which we can all coexist in peace? Can freedom be compatible with law and order? How can we meet all our challenges as individuals and a society, including the environment, genetic engineering, and the rapid development of artificial intelligence? True wellness is a state of profound clarity, peace, and contentment, resulting from connection with our pure Consciousness.

    Alton Brown | Good Eats 3, The Later Years

    Alton Brown visits Google to discuss his book “Good Eats 3: The Later Years”. The book offers foodies more than 200 recipes accompanied by hundreds of photographs, drawings, and stills from his hit Food Network show “Good Eats”, as well as lots of science-of-food facts, cooking tips, food trivia, and behind-the-scenes glimpses. In chapters devoted to everything from pomegranates to pretzels, mincemeat to molasses, Alton delivers delicious recipes along with fascinating background in a book that’s as fun to read as it is to cook from. With his trademark humor, Brown starts at the neighborhood supermarket and recommends what to buy, how to turn it into tasty “good eats,” and explains the science behind his recommendations. What bacon should you take home? How can you make it crispy? Why does frying bacon suddenly burn? Does all espresso have to be dark roasted? Cooking school has never been so fun!

    Joanna “JoJo” Levesque | Over the Influence: A Memoir

    Joanna “JoJo” Levesque visits Google to discuss her book “Over the Influence: A Memoir.” Signed to a major recording deal at just 12 years old, JoJo catapulted to the top of the pop-and-R&B-infused charts in the mid 2000s. JoJo was an undeniable superstar and pop culture fixture, appearing in major studio films, on Top 40 radio, magazine covers, and national TV. Then, out of the blue, everything came to a halt and JoJo seemingly stepped out of the spotlight, leaving many fans to wonder: What happened to JoJo? JoJo’s unflinching vulnerability allows readers to connect with her on a whole new level through stories of success, heartbreak, redemption, and resilience, where she explores the turbulent years that led her to where she is now: releasing new music under her own imprint, performing in shows and festivals around the world, headlining a Broadway show, and beyond.

    James Franco | The Disaster Artist

    James Franco visits Google to discuss writing, directing, producing and starring in his film "The Disaster Artist.” The movie is based on Greg Sestero’s best-selling tell-all book about the making of Tommy Wiseau's cult-classic disasterpiece The Room, often referred to as “The Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made”. In the film, Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero become friends after meeting each other in an acting class in San Francisco. Hoping to achieve Hollywood stardom, Sestero moves to Los Angeles and signs on to appear in Wiseau’s project. Financed with his own money, Wiseau writes, directs and stars in "The Room," a critically maligned movie that becomes a cult classic. The film also stars Dave Franco, Seth Rogen and Zac Efron.

    Maggie Jackson | Uncertain: The Wisdom and Wonder of Being Unsure

    Award-winning author Maggie Jackson joins us to discuss her latest book “Uncertain: The Wisdom and Wonder of Being Unsure.” In an era of terrifying unpredictability, the swift, sure answer often seems right. We race to address precarity and complexity with neat algorithms, crisp bullet points, or hurried tweets. Who has time to dally in the wilderness of being unsure? How could we find the clarity and vision so urgently needed today by not-knowing? This book is about the unsung triumph of doing just that. Far from luring us into inertia or defeat, uncertainty powers good judgement, cognitive flexibility, creativity, curiosity, and even resilience. A state of mind critical to human achievement yet until recently little understood, uncertainty is the portal to finding the humanity in your enemies, the lynchpin of superior teamwork, and the mindset most needed in times of flux. A scientific adventure tale set on the front lines of a volatile era, this book explores uncertainty's positive role in the life of the mind and in contemporary society. What is a good daydream? Why is being unsure now seen as a healthy form of stress? Why do AI's top leaders see uncertainty as the key to keeping humanity safe from increasingly unstoppable AI? By learning to wield uncertainty with skill and care, we can recapture realms of good thinking sidelined in an era of push-button thought. We can discover all that the human mind can do at the peak of its powers in the most difficult predicaments, and learn how uncertainty is not weakness, but wisdom.

    Shawn Stevenson | Sleep Smarter

    In "Sleep Smarter", Shawn Stevenson shares easy tips and tricks to discover the best sleep and best health of your life. When it comes to health, there is often one criminally overlooked element: sleep. Good sleep helps you lose weight, stave off disease, stay productive, and improve virtually every function of your mind and body. That’s what Shawn Stevenson learned when a degenerative bone disease crushed his dream of becoming a professional athlete. Like many of us, he gave up on his health and his body, until he decided there must be a better way. Through better sleep and optimized nutrition, Stevenson not only healed his body but also achieved fitness and business goals he never thought possible. With his 14-Day Sleep Makeover, you’ll learn how to create the ideal sleep sanctuary, how to hack sunlight to regulate your circadian rhythms, which clinically proven sleep nutrients and supplements you need, and stress-reduction exercises and fitness tips to keep you mentally and physically sharp. Shawn Stevenson is a bestselling author and creator of The Model Health Show, featured as the #1 Health podcast in the world on iTunes. With a university background in biology and kinesiology, Shawn is the founder of the Advanced Integrative Health Alliance, providing wellness services for both individuals and organizations.

    Kasley Killam | The Art & Science of Connection

    Social health expert Kasley Killam visits Google to discuss her book “The Art and Science of Connection.” Weaving together cutting-edge science, mindset shifts, and practical wisdom, Kasley offers a methodology for how to be socially healthy. Her book is an antidote to the loneliness epidemic and an inspiring manifesto for seeing wellbeing as not only physical and mental, but also social. Exercise. Eat a balanced diet. Go to therapy. Most wellness advice is focused on achieving and maintaining good physical and mental health. But Harvard-trained social scientist and pioneering social health expert Kasley Killam reveals that this approach is missing a vital component: human connection. Just as we exercise our physical muscles, we can strengthen our social muscles. This book can transform the way you think about each interaction with a friend, family member, coworker, or neighbor, and give you the tools you need to live a more connected and healthy life—whether you are an introvert or extrovert, if you feel stretched thin, and no matter your age or background. Along the way, Killam will reveal how a university student, a newlywed, a working professional, and a retired widow overcame challenges to thrive through connection—and how you can, too.
