One of my favorite guests of all time, and one of my favorite humans in general, is joining me again for this episode. His fourth visit thus far.
I’m talking, of course, about New York Times bestselling author, Dan Miller.
His latest book, unconventional in that he made all the “wrong” choices during its creation, is called An Understanding Heart.
Some of those choices include:
- A simulated leather book
- 406 pages
- 84 vignettes in all
- Color pages
- A satin bookmark
- A gift box with key quotations
- A bonus medallion
- And more.
It’s about as excited as I’ve ever seen Dan about one of his projects. It’s the kind of book you can dive into for a few pages, put it down, and then come back to it later, without the guilt typically associated with approaching a book in that way.
For this reason and many others, it makes a fantastic gift! I loved it, and I think you will too.
I hope you’ll click the play button below to learn more about Dan and his work. For a summary, just keep scrolling.

In today’s episode, I ask Dan:
- Why he believes that, no matter your stage in life, you should always make your future bigger than your past
- The importance of sometimes exercising creative skills just for the joy they bring us
- How to best view the expression of gratitude
- Passion as a magnet
- And lots more!
