Episode 87: Great Expectations with Gretchen Rubin
“[The Four Tendencies] helps you understand why something that works really well for you might not work for someone else, or why something that someone else finds really easy to do you find hard to do.” — Gretchen Rubin
This week, Doree adds showering to her to-do list and tries to get better at saying no, and Kate books her first mammogram and explores plant-based recipes. Then they welcome writer and podcaster Gretchen Rubin, who discusses The Four Tendencies, pursuing happiness, making time to read, and how she handles stress. Plus, Kate and Doree discuss their own tendencies (Obliger and Questioner!) and how they manifest in their lives.
