Give and Take by Adam Grant

Mind Set in Stone Podcast

What if the way you give — or take — determined your success in life and work?

In this episode of the Mind Set in Stone Podcast, Dave and Poppy dive into Adam Grant’s groundbreaking book Give and Take.

Grant reveals a surprising truth: while some people climb the ladder by taking, and others struggle by giving too much, true long-term success comes to those who give strategically.

Dave and Poppy unpack the powerful research behind Grant’s work, exploring the three interaction styles — givers, takers, and matchers — and how each impacts relationships, careers, and communities.

They also share practical insights on how you can harness generosity without burning out, and why helping others may actually be the fastest path to your own growth.

If you’ve ever wondered whether kindness can be a strength in business and life, this episode will change the way you see success — and how you achieve it.
