Nevada is one of America’s most diverse states for insect life but many of these species are at risk of extinction with no statewide protections. And as the City of North Las Vegas begins planning for a new development on 7,000 acres of land received from the Bureau of Land Management, how should we ensure the safety of endemic species? Could these protections actually streamline development? Co-host Sarah Lohman sits down with Amy Alonzo from The Nevada Independent. Alonzo explains a proposal in the legislature to radically reclassify insects so they can be protected as imperiled wildlife — and why this bill has had trouble passing before.

Introducing LIZZO EXCLUSIVE: “Releasing The Weight Has Affected People” The Real Transformation Story She’s Never Shared Before from On Purpose with Jay Shetty.

Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay Shetty

How would your life change if your healing reshaped not just your body, but your entire way of being?

What if the real change wasn’t about losing anything—but about gaining a deeper connection to yourself?

In this deeply vulnerable episode, global superstar Lizzo sits down with Jay for an unfiltered conversation about loss, boundaries, transformation, and what it really feels like living in the spotlight. Lizzo shares how her loyalty to friends and her habit of seeing the good in everyone sometimes came at the cost of her own peace.

She shares what happened when she finally stopped chasing relationships that no longer served her—and how distance gave her clarity on who was truly in her corner. Lizzo opens up about the pain of letting people go, the reality of feeling isolated, and the music that came out of her lowest moments.

Lizzo dives deep into how the recent public scandal impacted her—and why she’s now more intentional than ever with her words, her energy, and her healing. Lizzo opens up about the responsibility of being a public figure, how her weight release journey evolved into a powerful personal transformation, and why she's chosen to let go of toxic energy.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

How to Let Go of One-Sided Relationships

Why Some People Disappear When You Set Boundaries

How to Honor Your Emotions Without Editing Them

How Your Energy Shapes What You Attract

How Love Without Drama Becomes a Flow State

What It Means to Grow Apart Without Guilt

Why Intentional Healing Starts With Self-Awareness

Lizzo’s transformation is a reminder that you can still believe in people—and protect yourself. You can evolve—and still be soft. And you can face the hardest season of your life—and still come back to love.

With Love and Gratitude,

Jay Shetty

Clark County had 11 cyclist deaths on our roads last year — bike safety advocates say our road design and driving culture are partly to blame. They're backing a counterintuitive bill this legislative session: AB 168 would allow cyclists to disregard stop signs and keep pedaling through intersections. Co-host Dayvid Figler talks with Ky Plaskon, secretary at the Nevada Bicycle Coalition, and David Swallow, Deputy CEO at the Regional Transportation Commission, about why AB 168 is needed, the stats that back it up, and how else Las Vegas could make the roads safer for everyone.

Thirty-four of the Wetlands Park's 210 acres burned this week in a wildfire that took on surprising proportions — so what does it mean when a fire is "human caused," and what common plant could be at the root of the problem?

Follow the show: The School of Greatness

Get my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

I sat down with Anas Bukhash, the biggest talk show host in Dubai and a successful entrepreneur running multiple businesses in the UAE, for a fascinating conversation about wealth, culture, and relationships. Having lived in both America and Dubai, Anas offers a unique perspective on how these contrasting societies approach money. He reveals how Dubai's entrepreneurial energy creates genuine wealth-building opportunities that many Americans struggle to find, despite the "American Dream" narrative. Through vulnerable reflections on his early marriage, subsequent divorce, and ten years of singlehood, Anas also shares his evolving journey toward emotional intimacy and the inner work he's doing with his therapist to understand his patterns. His insights on balancing business success with personal growth offer valuable wisdom for anyone seeking to build meaningful prosperity in both their financial and emotional lives.

• How Dubai's entrepreneurial culture creates wealth-building opportunities that differ fundamentally from the American economic landscape
• Why growing up in wealth versus earning it yourself creates different relationships with money and success
• The surprising role that daily prayer plays in creating structured pauses for reflection and emotional regulation
• How vulnerability and control issues in relationships mirror our approach to business and success
• The critical difference between "casual" relationships and true emotional intimacy in creating lasting fulfillment
• Why the strength of family units and support systems play a crucial role in Dubai's rapid development
• How therapy can help identify unconscious patterns that affect both our business decisions and personal relationships
• Why parenting styles often condition boys to suppress emotions, creating challenges for emotional expression later in life

The new administration's sweeping spending cuts have reached the USDA, which cut two pandemic-era relief programs in Nevada last week. Southern Nevada's only food bank, Three Square, won't receive about 1 million pounds of food that it had been expecting this spring, and Home Feeds Nevada won't be able to pay local farmers and ranchers to supply food pantries, either. So what happens now? Co-host Dayvid Figler sits down with Three Square CEO Beth Martino, who explains why food insecurity is worse than it's been since the pandemic, and why she remains hopeful that hungry Las Vegans will still get fed.

Check out Three Square's Food Finder map to find your local food pantry.
