With Valentine’s Day coming up, join Yo Canny to explore Love and Kindness and what they have to do with leadership. She digs into all the Brené Brown and Jay Shetty books she can to see what they have to say on the subject. She takes a deep dive into Perfectionism and ends by looking at the question: “How do we give love?” She provides a poignant passage from Braving the Wilderness.
