Prepare to have your mind expanded and your perspective challenged as Fred Kofman shares his wisdom and insights, guiding us towards a more fulfilling and purpose-driven existence. This is an episode you won't want to miss.

Main topics of our conversation:

Dealing with uncertainty

The key to dealing with uncertainty is focusing on what is within our control - our choice of response. We can't control circumstances, only ourselves, but that choice gives life meaning.

Self and nonduality

There is an eternal awareness in us that remains even when sensations, thoughts, and the sense of 'I' come and go. This awareness is timeless and unchanged.

Memento mori

Remembering our mortality helps us live according to our values now. It reduces ego and helps gain perspective.

Leadership

True leadership inspires others through expressing values and being an example of excellence. It means giving people the freedom to choose along with the truth and information they need to choose well.

What tastes good vs what is good

We must choose between short term gains that 'taste good' in the moment and longer term meaning and purpose. Most choose what tastes good, but that is like 'junk food for the soul' and won't lead to peace. 

Steps you can take:

• Reflect on what is within my control and focus my effort there rather than on changing circumstances outside of my control.
