This isn't a story about Huffington's entrepreneurship journey, but how her fearlessly supportive mother helped clear a path for her to succeed even when Huffington doubted herself or...Show More

@keenian @oliviawong This is the meditation + first-person narrative podcast I was mentioning. It's probably unlike anything you've heard before.

@oliviawong Yup...I love how you tear up and then they give you a moment to meditate and reflect on it all. See @aliceko's review on this podcast below. She's tearing up all the time.

@aliceko it was promo'd on Ariana's Thrive podcast. If you liked this episode, you may like the other two as well. I recommend Pico Iyer's episode, where he talks about his travels in SE Asia and unexpectedly finding a place he had never been before that felt perfectly like home.

From sunny Greece, scented with wild herbs and her mother's cooking, to cold, glamorous Cambridge, a journey with Arianna Huffington.
