874 - Sharing your story (why we all need to)
YouTube
Sharing our personal experiences can have profound effects on others. One such effect is motivating them to take the kind of action that eventually leads to positive changes in their lives. It's really easy to say that people should just get motivated, it's even easier to tell them they need to go watch a motivational video or read a book, but the reality is it doesn't work tha
873 - How to avoid burnout
Burnout is a state of physical, mental and emotional exhaustion that can result from chronic stress, especially in the workplace. It can affect anyone, but it's particularly common among people who work in demanding, competitive or high-pressure environments. Burnout can have serious consequences for your health, happiness and productivity. But what causes burnout and how can we prevent it? In
872 - How to focus when you want to do everything
In this episode, we explore the alluring and often overwhelming desire to do it all. We start by acknowledging that we all have the capability to do anything we set our minds to, but being capable and being good are two different things. We often find ourselves envious of others who excel in a particular task or craft, which can send us down a rabbit hole of excitement and inspiration, only to los
871 - You don't need to change
In this episode, we explore the importance of understanding the motivations behind personal change. Often, we feel pressure to improve ourselves because society tells us we're not good enough as we are. But the truth is, we are already enough. Personal change should come from a place of self-love and acceptance, not external pressure. We must question the messages that society sends us and d
870 - Stop trying to be productive
When you hear the word "productivity," you might think of getting as much done as possible in the least amount of time. Is this really the best way to work though? Grinding away at an endless list approach really the most effective way to work? I don't think it is and I don't think you do either. There's a better way, it's called being effective and I think it's worth
869 - The balance of power between capital and labor
Are you tired of feeling like a cog in the machine, working hard every day just to scrape by while those at the top reap all the benefits? It's not just your imagination - the balance of power between capital and labor is heavily skewed in favor of capital. But why is this the case, and what can we do about it?
In this episode, we'll explore the reasons why capital holds all the power and

In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the topic of universal health insurance, specifically Medicare for All, examining the benefits and drawbacks of publicly funded health insurance.
We start by exploring what universal health insurance is and how it works, discussing the potential benefits of having such a system in place. We highlight how having access to health insurance can provi
867 - Finding your passion in a capitalist world
In this episode, I dive into the strange and often hazardous intersection between capitalism and the pursuit of passion. I'll explore how the pressure to find and monetize your passion has become a pervasive message in our society, and the consequences of treating passion as a means to an end rather than an end in itself. I'll discuss why it's important to prioritize passion for its ow

866 - Hack your motivation
Lately, I've been paying close attention to what motivates me and trying to figure out how to pursue more of that. This reminded me of a book I read early last year called Tiny Habits by B.J. Fogg. In the book, B.J. introduced the behavior model. The B = M A P behavior model is a simple yet powerful tool that can help us understand the factors that influence our behavior. B.J.

865 - Some thoughts on finding your why
A common trap that I fall into is feeling like my “why” needs to be this huge, selfless thing. Like it needs to be Mother Teresa levels of altruism. Something like:
Wanting to help underprivileged communities
Because you want to fix climate change
To support children because they’re our future
And, maybe it would be nice if those were naturally your reason but if they’re not, you shouldn’t f

We've all been there. We know meditation is good for us, but we just can't seem to start and stick with it. Maybe we're too busy, or we're not sure how to do it. Or maybe we're just a little intimidated by the idea of sitting still and trying to quiet our minds. But the truth is, starting a meditation practice doesn't have to be complicated or difficult. In fact, getting started with building this

Here's a question...when was the last time you considered your unconcious biases?
Have you ever? It's okay if not..most of us haven't.
But here's something interesting to note..whether we take the time to examine them or not...they do affect us. Every single day.

856 - How to Fix Productivity
How productive were you today? Do you know? Did you track it? What method did you use? A to-do list? A pomodoro timer? I’d bet you were really really productive. I bet you got a lot of things done and checked off all those little boxes right? So here’s a different question…did any of it matter? Sure, you were productive…but for what purpose? To what end?

855 - The Cult of Entrepreneurship
When you think of a cult, you might conjure some very specific imagery. Groups of people dressed in white, huddled around a charismatic, long-haired leader. Glasses of red fruit punch, mixed with other things, in the background. And a general sense of impending doom as the leader shares their celestial or holy visions with the crowd.
This idea of a cult may have been popular in the 70s and 8
