Super Soul Special: Elizabeth Gilbert: The Curiosity-Driven Life

Original Air Date: April 24, 2019

New York Times best-selling author Elizabeth Gilbert is known for following her passion, but says she no longer advises others to do the same. Instead, Elizabeth makes the case to follow your curiosity. Elizabeth says she believes the word "passion" can trigger feelings of stress and pressure. “At some point in your life, you were told, ‘Chase your passion,’” she says. “Not everyone knows how to answer that command.”

Insightful

I love how she talks about following your curiosity instead of passion. That seems like a more interesting and fuller way to live your life. Especially for those who have a passion, maybe there’s something out there they are more passionate about that they haven’t tried before because they stopped being curious. Elizabeth Gilbert nails it every time.
