This week I have my boss, mentor and friend Jason Bridges on the Chasing Joy Podcast. Alongside his wife, Jason owns and operates two Nantucket businesses: Handlebar Cafe & Nantucket Bike tours. He’s also a local selectman and has spoken at Tedx about the power of emotional intelligence and self awareness.

- The importance of connecting with people
- How to improve your small talk game in a way that works for you (and why it really matters)
- The importance of self-awareness in your personal and business life
- How to become more aware of your feelings and thoughts
- Practical ways to practice boosting your energy and mood when you’re aware you’re having a bad day
- The importance of surrounding yourself with inspiring, positive people
- How to move on from situations and relationships that don’t serve you
- The power of believing in people
- Teaching to grow yourself
- Managing your energy not your time
- The importance of accepting compliments
