“Passion is a roller coaster ride that can send us on a sudden, precipitating plunge from the heights of happiness to the depths of despair. This thoughtful, immediately readable book shows how to manage passion so it brings out the best in us rather than the worst in us.“

— Adam Grant, author of Give and Take and Originals

“I feel like these books were written for me. I had to resist underlining every sentence."

— Shalane Flanagan, NYC Marathon Champion, 4-time Olympian, author of Run Fast, Eat Slow

"Clear, concise, and captivating. From the onset, one is quickly drawn in through the honest and open comments supplemented by engaging stories, provocative examples, and supportive research. The Passion Paradox is a page turner, nudging one on to the next chapter and then the next."

— New York Journal of Books
