How our Strengths Help us Make Commitments
Today on the podcast, Linda and Nathan discuss the book, The Second Mountain: The Quest for a Moral Life by David Brooks. Brooks looks at four commitments that define a life of meaning and purpose: “to a spouse and family, to a vocation, to a philosophy or faith, and to a community. Our personal fulfillment depends on how well we choose and execute these commitments.” We unpack those four areas of commitment and examine how our Strengths enable us to engage with each meaningfully.
