  Ted audio collective.

  I'm your host, Chris Duffy, and you're listening to how to be a better human.

• 00:12

  Okay, so before we get into this episode, I have to give you a disclaimer of all the guests we've ever had on the show.

• 00:17

  Of all the episodes we've taped, today's interview is the one that I was most nervous to do.

• 00:22

  And that is because with every other conversation that we've had, if I messed up the interview, well, that's a bummer, but it's just a one time thing.

• 00:29

  It's just one bad episode.

• 00:31

  Whereas todays guests are the authors, Liz Fossiline and Molly West Duffy, and I am Mollys husband.

• 00:37

  So if I messed todays episode up, well, I have to live with the interview subject, so the pressure is on.

• 00:43

  I better get this one right.

• 00:45

  And actually kind of perfectly.

• 00:47

  Feeling anxious at work is a topic that Liz and Molly are experts in.

• 00:51

  Theyre the authors of no hard feelings and their new book, big feelings, both of which tackle questions of how to handle tough emotions at work and in life.

• 00:58

  So we are already right in their wheelhouse.

• 01:00

  And I know that I am biased.

• 01:02

  Obviously, I am incredibly biased here.

• 01:04

  But one thing that I really do love and admire so much about Liz and Molly's collaboration is that they always bring so much of themselves to the work they're writing about, often very serious issues.

• 01:14

  But they bring a great sense of humor and they share the ways that they experience these big emotions themselves.

• 01:20

  And I am going to start it off very professionally.

• 01:23

  So let me have both of you introduce yourselves.

• 01:27

  Hi, I'm Molly West Duffy.
