Learn From People Who Lived it

A micro-dose investment in you - Blow up what you built (part 1)


Listen Later

This discussion focuses on strategies for personal growth through intentional life changes, including the concept of 'blowing up' unfulfilling structures, taking actionable micro-steps, and navigating transitions with kindness.

In this episode you'll hear:
  • The concept of 'blowing up what you built' involves making significant life changes (careers, relationships, etc.) when existing structures no longer serve personal growth or fulfillment. Hosts shared personal examples of leaving high-profile careers despite external success.

  • Emphasis on action over inaction: Frustration often stems from stagnation, and small steps can lead to transformative change ('micro-investments').

  • Navigating change with intentionality: The importance of approaching transitions kindly (e.g., 'move your family and friends through this in the highest way') rather than chaotic detachment.
