My 1st Year Meditating

About this episode

In this episode, Richard shares his journey of self-discovery through meditation and the impact of the book 'Quiet' by Susan Cain.

Recorded with different mics so audio sucks. Mentioned headspace.com wtfpod.com/podcast/episode-955-anna-faris About this podcast: I was afraid to be myself for years. I pretended to be comfortable in social events, parties, work meetings. But inside I was struggling; afraid of being judged and saying something stupid. Then I read a book called Quiet by Susan Cain. This book changed my life. I am learning and want to share this messy stuff about myself and the world. I hope you find this useful. Want to learn more about your personality?
