Episode 14: Living Every Year Like it's the Last
If I were to die next week, would I be able to look at myself on my deathbed, morbid as this sounds, and say that I had lived a life that was purposeful, and if so, what does that mean?
How can we make sense of tragedy? In this episode, I interview April Rinne, a public speaker, advisor, writer and globetrotter. She advises, speaks, writes and advocates for businesses and policies fit for the 21st century change (adopting what she calls a "flux mindset"). April discusses the experience of losing both of her parents in a car accident when she was 20, and how, out of that tragedy, she set out to make better sense of the world (including a world in flux), and eventually, help make the world a better place.
