Life happens - things unplanned, things unexpected, things over which we have no control. It's how we react and respond to those things that determine how successful, fulfilled, and happy we can be.

Travis Thomas is a master at improvisational comedy. He expertly teaches how to incorporate the same behavior essential for successful improv into business, sport, relationships - life in general.

As a performance coach, leadership and team development specialist, and author of *3 Words for Getting Unstuck: Live Yes, And!*, Travis shares the secret of living a life based on "Yes, and...".

Listen as Travis and host, Bill Ellis, discuss the power of this philosophy in building trust, creating confidence, enhancing listening skills, and adapting a mindful approach to life and its many surprises.
