In a world that changes every day, how do we stay flexible? I'm thrilled to have author and expert Brad Stulberg on the show to discuss his latest book "Master of Change," including concepts like rugged flexibility, order/disorder/reorder, identity, and much more. We dive into the complexities of identity, discussing how our various roles, from parent to athlete, come together to form an integrated whole. We talk about how making changes from a place of strength versus weakness urges us to assess the bigger picture before embarking on transformative journeys. This conversation came at a perfect time for me, and I hope it helps you, too. These practical insights will help you build resilience and master change in all aspects of life. Don't miss this opportunity to explore the art, science, and practice of achieving a more fulfilling and sustainable kind of success.   Here are our key takeaways: What is rugged flexibility? How we can be willing to bend and adapt when navigating change over the long term. Aligning expectations with reality: The importance and impact of understanding true outcomes Analyzing identity: Recognizing that we are made up of differentiated parts (like parent, athlete) that are integrated to form a cohesive whole.
