A few months ago I got to interview Tom Henricks, a four-time Space Shuttle astronaut (two missions as pilot, two missions as commander). It was a dream come true for me and I got to ask him all about his time in space, including all of the questions I've always wanted to ask an astronaut.

From that interview, there were a few key lessons and takeaways that really stuck with me, and I wanted to briefly cover those in today's video. If you're interested in watching the full-length interview, I promise it will be well worth your time! Tom had a lot of wisdom and incredible stories to share and I was honored to spend time with him and document it all.
