In Today’s episode, we are thrilled to welcome Steven Kotler… 

Steven is a New York Times bestselling author, an award-winning journalist, and the Executive Director of the Flow Research Collective. 

He is one of the world’s leading experts on human performance. Steven is the author of eleven bestsellers (out of fourteen books), including The Art of Impossible, The Future is Faster Than You Think, Stealing Fire, The Rise of Superman, Bold and Abundance. 

His work has been nominated for three Pulitzer Prizes, translated into over 50 languages, and has appeared in over 110 publications, including academic journals such as Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews and Psychophysiology, and mainstream publications like the New York Times Magazine, Wired, Atlantic Monthly, Wall Street Journal, TIME, and the Harvard Business Review.

Alongside his wife, author Joy Nicholson, Kotler is the cofounder of Rancho de Chihuahua, a special-needs dog rescue, and the Buddy Sue Hospice Home for Old Dogs, a canine elder care facility.

Mel has personally followed Steven’s work for many years, has read nearly all of his books, first Stealing Fire and most recently re-reading The Art of Impossible. We highly recommend his work and couldn’t be more fired up to have him on the show.
