GLD 553 - The One-Up Effect with Thomas Edwards

Can the same principles that help you win at love help you win at life? GLD veteran and professional wingman-turned-life-coach Thomas Edwards returns to break down his incredible personal journey — from heartbreak and persona-building in college, to over 400 marriages coached, to sobriety and self-reinvention, to competing in pro gaming tournaments. Thomas talks about abandoning yourself vs. protecting yourself, why your "yes" lives in the land of "no," how he found the courage to pivot everything, the dangerous myth of work-life balance, why the most successful people are playing someone else's game, and the inspiration behind his new book The One-Up Effect: Gamify Your Life to Win and Have Fun Playing — and much, much more!
