Welcome to "How To Be...", guiding you through life's tricky topics and skills by reading through the best books out there. Disobedience is needed, and without it social progress would not continue. Disobedience is important because it can save lives, and it starts the conversation, but it can also cause conflict. There are both good disobedience and bad disobedience. So why is it important and how can we be disobedient with purpose? Hence, I spoke to award-winning author Piyali Bhattacharya, who is the editor of the anthology Good Girls Marry Doctors on whether we need disobedience in our lives, as well as other experts' books to see if their advice can help all of us. I also heard from others who have gained some mastery over themselves. Please hit subscribe to hear the whole series on life skills! It should be short and sweet. I look forward to journeying with you through this maze of hacks.
