So many of us are constantly worried that we have too many interests in order to really achieve success in a specific field. We’ve been told our entire lives that specializing is essential for success. Today, we’re proving otherwise with the help of David Epstein, a journalist and NY Times best selling author who was previously a science and investigative reporter at ProPublica. Prior to that, David was a senior writer at Sports Illustrated where he co-authored the story that revealed Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez had used steroids. Now, he has a TED talk with over 7 million views and has his second book out-Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, and Maria is talking to him all about it. Maria also talks about her time in Las Vegas watching the NBA Summer League, her family’s appearance on Celebrity Family Feud and another successful MRI for her mom!
