  • 304. What I learned from Mettle Health in one session

    It's time for us to talk about mental health! I'm so grateful for the counselors at Mettle Health for their teaching. I'll be sharing my learnings in bits and pieces alongside my regular interview format episodes. 

    After helping Mettle Health establish their YouTube channel, offering some tips and tricks around social media (in August 2020-September 2021), I find myself now as a client of their wonderful services. There's so much I've learned in just one session. 

    Counselors at Mettle Health can help us deal with issues ranging from the practical, to the emotional, to the existential.

This vast experience has led him to understand what people really need when dealing with difficult health situations.

    Sonya Dolan

    Sonya came to work in the field of hospice and palliative care after the death of her mother. This loss and the experience of being a caregiver greatly influenced her career trajectory and she left the world of event management for hospice administration. Her experience at a non-profit hospice included working with teams of clinicians, patients, family members and outside vendors to provide care and services for hundreds of patients on a daily basis.

    Her work with hospice, coupled with caregiving for her mother and being a breast cancer survivor has given her a keen awareness of what the healthcare system provides and where it is lacking.

  • 301. Dave Ceddia: Entrepreneur and Creator of Recut - Editing Your Videos in a Fraction of the Time

    Dave Ceddia is a software developer and course creator who, in 2018, quit his full-time software job to focus on creating educational resources for JavaScript and React developers. He runs a blog (https://daveceddia.com) and wrote a book on React in 2016, and in 2019 expanded it into a full self-paced video course called Pure React (https://purereact.com).


    After making hours of screencasts for courses and being frustrated with how long editing takes, he created Recut (https://getrecut.com/feisworld - use this link to get $10 off), a desktop app to speed up video editing, which automatically creates a rough cut by removing the silences between takes. It turned out to be a hit with YouTubers and podcasters too, and now he's creating a Windows version to make it available to a wider audience.

  • 299. Year of the Tiger: What habits are you developing this year?

    Happy Chinese New Year! In the past few days, I’ve received a lot of greetings from the East and the West to celebrate Chinese New Year, an important tradition that has become more well known outside of China. Before we go any further, I wish you and your family a wonderful year, decade and life ahead, filled with joy, wealth and health.

    I hope the desire of learning more about one another’s culture also gives us an excuse to create more shared celebrations.
