Join me and Jeff Harry, who combines positive psychology and play to heal workplaces, help teams build psychological safety and assist individuals in addressing their biggest challenges by embracing a play-oriented approach to work. Jeff has been featured in the NY Times, HuffPost, Shondaland, NPR, and more and has worked with Google, Microsoft, Amazon, the NFL and other Fortune 500 companies to infuse more play into the day-to-day.
Jeff’s main goal is to make work suck less by assisting leaders in building a playground workplace atmosphere that motivates their staff to do their most vibrant work.
In this episode, we discuss:
- why being cool is too much work 🤣,
- how play is the opposite of perfection and expectations are the thief of joy,
- why you should ask yourself, "How can it get any better than this,"
- the ripple effect of joy,
- the monetization mistake our society makes,
- how to find more play in your life,
- how having things to look forward to can combat depression,
- why you should take a silly tour in your own city,
- how to utilize reverse gossip,
- the difference between a transactional conversation and a transformational conversation, and
- the importance of human connection.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
