70 - Leveling Up in Real Life: Kevin Anderson on Gamifying Personal Growth Through Journaling


Listen Later

Kevin Anderson has journaled every day since 2020, and he thinks of the habit as a real-life video game. In this inspiring conversation, Kevin shares how journaling helps him track emotions, celebrate wins, and evolve through life's challenges. He opens up about printing his entries into a growing bookshelf of colorful Day One books, the joy of documenting the things that make him laugh, and how his practice helps him zoom out to see the full arc of his personal growth over time. Whether through naming his journal volumes or reflecting on legacy, Kevin's approach to keeping a journal is playful, powerful, and triumphant. We close the episode with a first for the podcast—a live "On This Day" journal reading.
