This week, I’m talking to Michael Ventura. Michael is the CEO and founder of Sub Rosa, he runs an indigenous medicine practice, and just wrote his first book, Applied Empathy: The New Language Of Leadership.

Michael and I talk about the benefits of applied empathy, finding a mentor, his thoughts on self-promotion, and empathy vs. weakness. Plus he answers all the OPP Family questions.

**************** { Michael’s Lotus Root Recipe }

2 lbs lotus root, trimmed and peeled
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 1/2 tablespoons honey (or sugar)
1 cup sake
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
1-2 teaspoons of finely chopped red chili pepper or sambal (you can always add more heat so go slow at first)
1 tablespoon (or more) of toasted sesame seeds

Cut the lotus root crosswise about 1/4 thick. Soak in a bowl of cold water and then strain. Do this a few times until the water drains clear. Let them dry.

In a non-stick skillet or wok heat up sesame oil. Add the lotus roots and toss until they are covered with oil. Add the mix of sake, sugar, soy sauce and chili pepper/sambal. Stir/toss continuously until the sauce is reduced and thick (about 10 mins). Once thickened, add the sesame seeds and toss, then transfer to plate or bowl.
