LODRO RINZLER is a teacher in the Shambhala tradition of Vajrayana Buddhism. He has taught numerous workshops and retreats. His column, "What Would Sid Do?" (Sid = Siddhartha, the Buddha), appears regularly in the Huffington Post and is the basis for his second book, Walk Like a Buddha- Even if Your Boss Sucks, Your Ex Is Torturing You, and You're Hungover Again.
"Rinzler offers spiritual guidance for young people who have
forgotten something important in the midst of career advancement
and professional networking: that it is not what they do that
defines them, but rather who they are. With that focus, cultivation
and enlightenment can be brought to any job and any
experience."—Publishers Weekly
"This is a magnificent book that just happens to be truly fun to
read. Accessible, urgent and life-changing."—Seth Godin, author of
