Today’s episode is with my wife, Gretchen Wagner. Gretchen is a long-time Buddhist practitioner and alumna of Naropa University. She’s worked in tech on and off since the mid-nineties—as an engineer, a manager and most recently, an Information Architect. She and I have often talked about how she integrates what she learns on the cushion into her professional life. In this episode we bring that conversation into the public realm, sharing it with you, the listener. Gretchen talks about the simplicity of mindfulness as a practice, and we examine what it means to be a leader, be it spiritually or in a professional context—hint: There are a lot of similarities.
