About the Author
"We live in a time of optimized habits, emotional intelligence, peak fitness and the perfect relationship. The challenge here is that we get hung up on one life domain instead of uncovering the influence each has on the other. Instead of trying to improve just one domain, it is paramount to uncover how each domain of our lived experience impacts the success (and failure) of all the changes we attempt to make. CHANGES will help you integrate all domains of your life."

In his capable hands, the search for self-knowledge is not some mysterious algorithm but a profoundly practical and reachabl goal."
