Restored
So many of us from divorced or broken families fear repeating our parents' mistakes.
If you want to avoid that, one of the keys is building virtue.
But what is virtue? How do you build it? And what virtues might you acquire?
My guest today wrote Superhabits, an amazing new book on virtue. He answers those questions, plus:
- How to override the unconscious bad habits we inherited in our families
- One habit that could save your marriage before it starts and what virtues to look for in a potential spouse
- Why virtue, not just therapy, is the key to healing family wounds
If you’re struggling with bad habits or you want to build good habits, this episode is for you.
