Brené Brown and Adam Grant explore why toughness and kindness aren’t opposites but rather complementary qualities that need each other. A thoughtful conversation about how effective leadership and relationships require both directness and compassion.

Great episode in general, but I especially loved the part in which Kornfield quotes from an Indian master named Atisha:

This was a fun podcast episode with some interesting thoughts on how to use empathetic listening to de-escalate conflicts. (And some humorous anecdotes from the author about how that doesn’t always work.)
