Holly Richardson: Lessons learned from an astronaut

Related Topics: Astronaut

I have listened to hundreds of podcast episodes this year but the one I just listened to with astronaut Jerry Linenger is one of the best I have ever heard. I was completely captivated listening to author and business guru Donald Miller interview Linengar.

Linengar’s bio is mind-boggling: Naval Academy grad, M.D. and Navy surgeon, Ph.D. in epidemiology and master’s degrees in systems development and public health. He is also a Navy fighter pilot, a SCUBA diver, triathlete and NASA astronaut who spent five months orbiting the earth in a Russian space station, conducting over 120 experiments and taking over 10,000 photos of earth.
