TWiST, “The Chatroom Just Listened”

TWiST with Mark Goulston Review

Lately, I have felt Jason’s interviews on occasion (not always) have gotten a bit stale (they seem to hit the same topics, over and over) that is why I started a “Best Question” post hoping that Jason might strive to get something interesting out of his guests. Well yesterday, This Week in Startups featured a bonus show with Dr. Mark Goulston, Psychiatrist, Author of Just Listen and HuffingtonPost blogger and all I can say is “THAT IS WHY I LISTEN TO THIS WEEK IN STARTUPS”. Jason and Mark both brought their “A” game with a very interesting and compelling discussion about interpersonal relationships. The show got so interesting the chatroom stopped chatting and listened for 10 to 15 minutes a feat in itself.

The show featured topics such as:

• • Opportunist vs. Visionary
  • Are you a one trick pony?
  • Resiliency
  • Motivation techniques
  • Quieting the startup chaos
  • Maintaining energy at a startup
  • Boss vs. employee relationship
  • A free resource from Mark

This episode was not a normal show with all the different segments, it is just an interview but you won’t be disappointed.  TWiST definitely reached a new level last night and I expect for everyone to get the most out of this episode, you will have to listen to it twice.  I know my recap will take a couple listens.

If you enjoy a thought provoking interview, this is a must watch or listen.  If you would like to read more about Mark, TIME is featuring his book this Monday

Definitely a 10 out of 10:
