We will learn: The role of forgiveness in personal growth and healing, and how it can be applied to both oneself and others.  The importance of vulnerability and authenticity in giving and receiving advice.  How to use writing as a tool for self-reflection and personal growth.  Do you ever feel regret or even shame about your past? Things you've said or done, or even previous versions of yourself? Today we're learning how to embrace our mistakes and our complexities with a little more grace. Our guest is Cheryl Strayed. She is the author of the number one New York Times bestseller “Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail,” which has sold more than 4 million copies worldwide and was made into an Oscar-nominated major motion picture starring Reese Witherspoon. Her other bestselling book “Tiny Beautiful Things” is currently being adapted for a Hulu television show that will be released this week. We cover so much in this episode and it's actually one of my favorite Mind Love interviews ever.
