Today's episode continues my conversation with business leader, motivational speaker, and self-described "serial entrepreneur with ADHD", Jennifer Potter.  We talked about dealing with past trauma no matter how difficult, and understanding our very mortality, a subject many prefer to avoid, in order to better understand ourselves and achieve success and happiness in the present.

For New Year's Day, please enjoy the conclusion of my two-parter with Prof. Landes.  I strongly recommend you guys listen to this one.  He tackles the rise of social media, algorithms, mass media motives, China’s tech “Great Wall,” the importance of different perspectives, and much more.
This episode was tied for the most downloaded of last season and for good reason.

For this special Christmas episode, please enjoy one of the most downloaded interviews from last season.  I sat down with Professor Stephen Landes from the University of Rhode Island to talk about media.  Mass media, social media and other forms of this communication and the effects it has had on our society and culture from both a historical standpoint and in the present.

For today's episode, I sat down with business leader, motivational speaker, and self-described "serial entrepreneur with ADHD", Jennifer Potter.  Jennifer focuses on teaching others not to become a statistic of their environment.  
She overcame a difficult childhood and aims to inspire others to become the best version of themselves.  We talk about dealing with trauma and overcoming past and present challenges, no matter how difficult, no matter how seemingly impossible to achieve success and happiness in the present.

Today's episode deals with fighting against our tendency to want to please others.  Why is it so hard to say no sometimes?  And what do we do if we or someone we know is suffering from burnout?  I sat down with Dr. Puja Aggarwal to talk about this.  Dr. Aggarwal has been on the show before and is a Board-Certified Neurologist and Epileptologist.  She is also a Certified Burnout and Growth Mindset Expert.  Back in season 3 we talked neurological disorders.  As a busy physician with a family, Dr. Aggarwal hired a mindset expert to help her years ago.  Now she helps busy professionals struggling to keep up with it all.  Dr. Aggarwal received her MD (Medical Doctor) degree from Northeastern Ohio Medical University.  She completed her residency in Neurology at Ohio State University and a fellowship at Cornell University New York Presbyterian Hospital in Epilepsy.

Are you, or anyone you know suffering from severe lower back pain?  If the answer is yes to any of that, you'll want to hear this episode.  I reached out internationally to talk to Colin MacGregor from the U.K.  Colin has over 25 years of experience in the strength and rehabilitation industry and has helped hundreds reduce their chronic lower back pain/sciatica and return to a life of normality.  He designed a 21 day program designed to help those in pain begin to recover quickly without surgery.

This episode focuses on Colin's program and how to begin to recover from such debilitating pain naturally.

Last month, President Biden issued a pardon for marijuana convictions at the federal level.  In the immediate wake of the midterm elections, I felt this a great time to revisit this stunning development and have an honest conversation about it with others who might not see things the same as I.  No doubt this helped to create the environment for such a hotly contested midterm election landscape.

Diversity in casting in movies and television has become quite the hot button topic over the past few years.  The subject has been given new life amid the controversies surrounding the live-action, Little Mermaid movie and the Lord of the Rings series on Amazon.  Today I'm talking with Tyler and DJ about why this has become such a talking point in society lately and share our opinions.
