“I loved this profound, practical, and generous book. Through the ingenious lens of the tiny experiment, Anne-Laure Le Cunff shows how we can jettison arduous and dispiriting attempts at self-improvement in favor of achievable and energizing adventures on the path to a more vibrant, accomplished, and wholehearted life.”
“The fear of failure often stands in the way of learning from trial-and-error. This is a thought-provoking guide to doing more trials and making fewer errors.”
“In Tiny Experiments, Anne-Laure Le Cunff shows how to separate ambition from rigid linear goals; allowing uncertainty to bloom into possibility and a meaningful life to emerge organically. A compelling new take on a timeless concern.”

It’s time to replace the old linear model of success with a circular model of growth, in which goals are discovered, pursued, and adapted—not in a vacuum, but in conversation with the larger world.
Tiny Experiments offers not just practical tools to make sure your most vital work gets done, but a guide to reawakening your curiosity and drive in a noisy, busy, disaffected world, so that you can discover and pursue your most authentic ambitions while making a meaningful contribution.
