What if you could transform the way you approach adversity and rejection, and even turn a seemingly negative 'no' into a powerful catalyst for personal growth? 

Join us, Adam Richardson and Joe Haslam, as we journey through the art of navigating adulthood, casting a critical eye on the struggles we face when hearing 'no'. 

We tackle job rejections, unfavorable performance reviews, and even the turbulent world of dating. 

We're also shining a spotlight on the infamous 'Karens' and 'Kevins' of our society who refuse to accept 'no', demonstrating the pitfalls of such a mindset.


Life is about balance, and this episode is all about finding that equilibrium. 

We converse about embracing the power of asking for help, challenging gender stereotypes and fostering a culture where it’s okay to say 'no'. 

Delve deep into the philosophies of the Socratic method, as we recount the tale of Socrates at the Oracle of Delphi. 

But it doesn’t stop there. 

We also dissect the importance of acknowledging our unique life journeys, while unmasking the often misunderstood realm of couples therapy.


In a world consumed by stress and negativity, we believe that a simple smile can go a long way. 

We explore the power of positivity, the value of leaving your stress at the door, and the significance of maintaining a cheerful disposition. 

We even dive into the contentious issue of illegal exotic animal transport and its potential consequences, underlining the importance of asserting a firm 'no' in such situations.

 So buckle up and get ready to challenge your perspectives, embrace the power of 'no', and transform your approach to life as you know it.
