Motivation! Desire! Drive! Adam Cayton-Holland (Those Who Can't, Conan) has accomplishments out the wazoo, but does the need for success also weigh him down? We discuss what it takes to write a book about the worst moment of your life, finding harmony with your creative partners, and why putting unhealthy pressure on yourself will eventually lead you down a path of misery.
