On Purpose with Jay Shetty

Today, I talk to Susan Cain, the author of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking, which spent seven years on the New York times bestseller list and has been translated into over 40 languages. It was named the number one best book of the year by Fast Company, which also named her as one of its most creative people in business. Her writing has appeared in the New York Times, The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, and many other publications and her records smashing Ted Talk, which was where I first discovered her, has been viewed over 30 million times on ted.com and YouTube combined and was named by Bill Gates as one of his all time favorite talks. Now her most recent book is called Bittersweet: How Sorrow And Longing Make Us Whole, which has become an instant #1 New York Times bestseller.Susan explains the reason behind why we process pain differently and why moving on is doable for others after some time but seems difficult for some. We also discuss how some people were able to turn painful experiences into inspiration and achieve creative success, the importance of shared connection and how we can find balance in expressing, accepting, and addressing our individual pain through these connections, and finally, the first step to healing is acceptance.This conversation shows us how we can choose to wallow in grief or in pain and allow it to control us or embrace these bittersweet emotions to fuel our motivation to heal, to connect, and to be a new you.    What We Discuss:00:00:00 Intro00:03:33 How did you start figuring out pain?00:05:52 Acceptance is the first step00:09:16 The union between souls00:12:05 Connection is the most healing of all00:16:19 The power of music00:22:01 Turn your pain into a creative offering00:24:21 Connection is the key00:28:25 We keep the memories of the people we lost00:30:42 The movement for compassion00:36:57 What is disenfranchised grief00:40:10 Finding balance in expressing and accepting your pain00:49:36 What can leaders do?00:54:37 Our culture of compassion00:57:39 Susan on Final FiveEpisode ResourcesSusan Cain | WebsiteSusan Cain | LinkedInSusan Cain | FacebookSusan Cain | InstagramSusan Cain | TwitterSusan Cain’s CoursesBittersweet: Practices & ReflectionsQuiet at WorkDo you want to meditate daily with me?

Today, I’m sharing a deep and meaningful conversation with Mason Spector and Peiman Raf of the Madhappy Podcast - a show that aims to create more conversation around mental health by illuminating the full spectrum of mental health, the highs and the lows.I get to share my journey as a monk, the valuable lessons on how to purify our ego, master our mind, manage our emotions, and live in service of others. We also talk about the difference between being alone and feeling lonely, and why it is important to always find time to be by yourself to reconnect with your thoughts. And finally, we dive into how our actions positively and negatively impacts the people around us and how we should deviate from external validation and instead focus on self validation to help tame our ego. Key Takeaways:00:00 Intro02:09 What are you proud of yourself for?04:22 What was your childhood like?09:55 Unlearning the values that you practice12:43 When being good doesn’t get you anywhere15:22 From taking an undergrad class to becoming a monk21:29 Using your gift in service of others28:23 Defining loneliness and solitude37:39 Why did you leave monkhood?41:43 Trying to get back into the world43:52 Living a life that positively impacts others49:13 Ego is fueled by validation51:42 One advice you’d give your younger self54:00 What makes you Mad Happy? Like this show?
