Leading Human Beings w/ Spiritual Advisor Glenn Ambrose

I am a huge fan our special guest Glenn Ambrose. I was thrilled to have him join me on Better Workdays to help me explore "his" world of spirituality and how it interesects with "my" world of leadership development.  Glenn's free weekly podcast is called Life, Lessons, and Laughter with Glenn Ambrose.  Before I found Glenn's podcast through the Insight Timer App, I would have said HELL NO to a "spiritual" podcast. But it turns out, spirituality and leadership are peas in a pod.  Check out my conversation with Glenn and you'll see what I mean.
