In episode 5, we talk about the anxiety and hopelessness epidemic that we seem to be experiencing in society, with Nicholas Samstag, clinical psychologist and host of the Mental Health in Business podcast.

Rather than adopting a very negative perspective on the matter, we actually discuss the purpose and usefulness of normal anxiety (as opposed to neurotic anxiety).

We also talk about the factors contributing to so much anxiety in the modern society, and conclude the conversation by sharing our tips and hacks for dealing with anxiety.

In episode 3 of the 21st Century Blues podcast, Kevin and I continue our discussion about the downfall of romantic relationships.

This time we start with the perspective and feedback of some of our male friends. We discuss the need for the man embracing his masculinity and the woman embracing her femininity in order for a relationship to prosper.

We also talk about the issue of societal vs. biological evolution and how that affects our expectations, standards and relationships.

Finally, we discuss the inherent problems of the systems in which we're trapped and which are strongly correlated with these challenges in relationships, emphasizing the need for better systems.

In episode 2 of the 21st Century Blues podcast, we discuss the state of romantic relationships in today's world with independent business consultant & teacher Kevin Holt.

Wounded Tiger recounts the incredible story of the transformation of Mitsuo Fuchida, the Japanese pilot who led the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.

In episode 1 of the 21st Century Blues podcast, I had the honor of interviewing T. Martin Bennett, the author of the non-fictional novel Wounded Tiger: The Transformational True Story of the Japanese Pilot Who Led the Pearl Harbor Attack, originally published in 2015.

Martin tells us more about the novel’s core messages of transformation and learning to have empathy towards one’s enemies rather than hostility and resentment. These themes are particularly relevant in today’s contentious times when we’re divided every step of the way over the most miniscule issues despite often finding much more common ground than these manufactured divisions unfortunately have us believe.

Hence Bennett’s Wounded Tiger upholds timeless lessons that we should all attempt to apply and embody if we’re to successfully heal the divides and emerge stronger through these troubling times.

The audiobook version of Wounded Tiger is complete and should be available on Audible shortly. In addition, a film adaptation is also currently under development; you can learn more from Martin in the interview and/or watch the trailer linked below.
