Jim Collins on What to Make of A Life, Part 1

In this episode, Andy is joined by bestselling author and researcher Jim Collins to discuss one of life’s biggest questions: What do you make of your life?

It is a question we all wrestle with more than once: How do we find our way in the world? How do we make it past the cliffs, significant events that can radically change our lives? How do we keep the inner fire burning bright, long and late?

Jim Collins devoted a decade to studying these questions and more. Listen in as he and Andy unpack his findings.
