I discuss the importance of understanding yourself, particularly via diagnosis and self-acceptance. The power of authenticity can change our jobs and our relationships. I also highlight her push for us to lean into self-regulation rather than self-control. Lastly, I give my thoughts on why intelligence can't be expected to follow the rules or align with intuition.
