Make Space for Your Inner Lamb - Building Better Humans

Sometimes you have to be a lion, so you can be the lamb you really are. What does comedian Dave Chappelle's powerful Mark Twain Award acceptance speech reveal about authenticity? In this week's episode, host Glenn Azar breaks down a pivotal quote and shares his own journey to self-acceptance.
