I'm your host, Eric Fisher, and I'm excited to welcome to the show Anne Lore LeComph. She's the author of Tiny Experiments, how to live freely in a

goal obsessed world and the founder of Nest Labs. In this conversation, we're talking about how to break free from the linear goal oriented mindset that often leads to burnout and frustration.
