A Questioner's Crisis + Our Personal Notes on Joyful (Ingrid Fetell Lee)

As a follow-up to episode 8, "Joyful" by Ingrid Fetell Lee, in this episode Em and Melissa talk about whether this book actually made them joyful, and what elements, if any, they’ve incorporated into their daily lives. They also revisit episode 1, "The Four Tendencies" to discuss Melissa’s personal identity crisis over her previously labeled tendency as an Obliger. It turns out, she may have been misdiagnosed.
