013: Miroo Kim — Bring Work to Mindfulness, Not Mindfulness to Work

Miroo Kim is a 15+ year tech professional who has worked at Apple, Microsoft and Facebook. She helped launch early iPhones and now works on Mobile Partnerships at FB, but most relevant to this philosophy show, she heads our Mindfulness club, along with Bob & Melena. We talk about the dynamics of compassion at work and why it’s important to not over-hype mindful practices, despite an exhaustive list of benefits. Miroo’s book recommendations are:

“A Bigger Sky: Awakening a Fierce Feminine Buddhism” by Pamela Weiss

“The Order of Time” by Carlo Rovelli
