I recently published my latest book, *Late Bloomers: The Power of Patience in a World Obsessed with Early Achievement*. Below is a question-and-answer [session](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-author-speaks/201904/late-bloomers) I did with *Psychology Today* soon after the book’s release.
