S3 E11 Emma Gannon on 'feeling her edges' and why she loves crying
Emma Gannon is a prodigy. From her Sunday Times bestselling non-fiction titles The Success Myth and Multi-Hyphen Method to her award-winning podcast CtrlAltDelete, she easily secured her Forbes' 30 under 30 ranking. Emma's new book 'A Year of Nothing' gives a moving account of why she had no choice but to switch off, go underground, and find joy and wisdom in mundane pleasures. Described as the 'voice of a generation' by Eat Pray Love's Elizabeth Gilbert, she enchants her audience with wisdom and insight. Which she brought to this episode by the bucketload. We adored hearing about why she loves crying, how she doesn't let anger burn her out and how she's still working on her boundaries.
