Discover a simple, powerful practice to help you reconnect with what energizes you—at work and in life. Learn how noticing what “lights you up” can guide meaningful career shifts, align your time with your values, and unlock long-term purpose.

My new favorite comedian is Alex Edelman. He’s a Jewish guy who gets “accidentally invited” to a meeting of white supremacists and then creates a comedy show (“Just for Us”) about it. The perspectives that he shares in this show, in follow-up interviews, and in his work in general, provide several important lessons for leadership and life. 

Amid the noise of constant demands, slowing down to truly see another person might be the most powerful leadership skill of all.
