Show Notes

Brief summary:

In this episode of FUELPodcast, I have Scott Shute joining us. He is the Former Head of Mindfulness and Compassion Programs at LinkedIn and also the author of the new book The Full Body Yes. Listen in as he shares a big struggle he faced in his career path and how he turned the situation around.

Key insights from this episode: 

  • (at 2:55) Scott talks about working at Linkedin and how we became the Head of Mindfulness and Compassion Programs of the biggest professional networking site. 
  • (at 8:40)  Scott shares a big struggle he faced in his career path and how he turned the situation around.
  • (at 11:36) SS: I do believe the meta lesson is that every challenge is filled with opportunity and it's just asking ourselves, okay, well, what else is true? What could I be doing? Nobody controls the hand of cards they're dealt, but each one of us controls how we play that hand. 
  • (at 18:53) Leila and Scott discuss learning and growing from challenges and a switch of perspective in dealing with a difficult situation.
