April Rinne: Thriving Through Change After Losing Both Parents at 20

About this episode

April Rinne discusses her framework for thriving through change after losing both parents at a young age.

After losing both parents in a car accident at age 20, April Rinne developed a framework for navigating constant change that became her book Flux. She discusses the eight superpowers for thriving in uncertainty—including running slower, seeing what is invisible, and letting go of the future—drawing from her work as a futurist and her deeply personal experience with loss.
