THE ART OF THE INTERESTING What We Miss in Our Pursuit of the Good Life and How to Cultivate It

Lorraine Besser, philosopher and college professor, provides tools that help listeners stop the perpetual pursuit of elusive happiness and focus more on "the interesting" in life. Lauren Ezzo delivers Besser's philosophy in a knowing performance, energizing every nuance, story, and emotional passage in a way that reflects the author herself. Ezzo supplies examples of ways people waste time and miss meaningful life experiences through the unsatisfactory search for what they believe is "the good life." Besser's research, as presented by Ezzo, focuses on how discovering your personal passions and interests leads to more life satisfaction. True rewards arise through novel experiences, spontaneous adventures, and letting go. Ezzo makes this philosophical session both interesting and inspirational.
