The Subtle Art of Not Giving a %#*^ With Mark Manson

Who Cares? And Why?

Mark Manson is an author, blogger, and internet entrepreneur that draws readership in the millions.

He has worked with thousands of people from more than 20 different countries through his work as a self-help guru for people that hate self-help. He’s addressed audiences from Sydney to New York to Vienna and everywhere in between, delivering personal development coaching that, in his own words, doesn’t suck. He’s talked people down from suicides, inspired marriages, and helped build first businesses.

His writing is a different take on the self help genre. It’s in-your-face, paradigm-shifting, profanity-riddled literature that gets the reader to confront and question that which they hold most dear.

Listen in as we discuss the subtle art of simply not giving a f*ck and how it can change your life for the better.

In This Episode

• Why you are wrong about everything
