In order to show up as our best selves for others, for all the roles that matter most to us, and to make the world a better place, we need to be able to have the important conversations with ourselves. In his new book, How Am I Doing?: 40 Conversations to Have with Yourself, Dr. Cory Yeager, a clinical psychologist and therapist for the Detroit Pistons, offers us 40 questions to help us start those important conversations with ourselves. Join Dr. Cory and Yael for a powerful conversation about why we need to have these conversations with ourselves and how to get that conversation started.

• Why we should be having more conversation with ourselves
  
• What can get in the way (and how to overcome it)
  
• The value of balanced positivity in the face of racial injustice
  
• What narrative solution focused therapy is
  
• How to form a helpful internal supreme court
  
• How to move from making the “right”choices to making your choices right 
  
• Why being vulnerable can free you
  
• Why moving forward often requires us also to look back
  
• What you can do with just 23 seconds
