• What if what we have right now IS the new normal, and how to live with it.
• The importance of looking at what doors are open to you and considering the things that haven't been considered before.
• Why reframing is important
• How innovation comes from hitting a wall
• The importance of activating curiosity
• Using curiosity to improve your relationsingships
• How calling out the hard things in our lives is important both for ourselves and our kids
• Why letting your work breathe will improve your work
• How letting catalysts change what you are doing
• The importance of remembering that there is no comfort in the stretch zone, and no stretch in the comfort zone -- and how that can change things.
