MINDFULNESS LESSONS FROM GOOGLE & A ZEN MONASTERY KITCHEN! Marc Lesser

I've had a lot of Zen guests on the show, but Marc Lesser is my all-time favorite. I love his life story, his journey, and how he's brought heart to the workplace, and achievement to the heart. 

If you're looking to balance love and life, or spirituality and achievement…of course, there really is no separation, then this beautiful interview is for you.

I want to have Marc back on the show, because I love his explanations, his wisdom, and his guidance. I hope you enjoy as much as I did!!!

If you've ever wanted to be more a more present, compassionate individual or leader, then do we have the Seven Practices of a Mindful Leader show for you!
