Cassidy sits down with James Beshara, co-founder of Magic Mind, fresh off one of his Philosophy Friday sessions at The Lighthouse. At 26, James was drinking six cups of coffee a day, needing two-hour naps after nine hours of sleep, and ended up in the ER having his heart shocked back into rhythm — and his first thought was getting back to the office. Sound familiar?

This conversation digs into what happens when the hustle that's supposed to get you to the top starts breaking you down instead. James shares how he went from waking up every morning feeling like he was living in a nightmare to building a $50M company while working less, making music, raising three kids on a farm in Malibu, and actually loving his life.

Cassidy and James explore why chasing peace with urgency will never get you there, what it actually takes to find your version of sustainable success, and the difference between rowing harder and learning to use the sail.

If you've ever felt like you're sprinting toward something that keeps slipping further away, this one's for you.
