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?

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