Welcome back to the podcast! This is the first episode of season 2, I hope you enjoy!

Today I’m sharing 6 tools that improved my life in 2023 that I will be bringing into 2024. These tools, apps, mindset shifts, and ideas have all helped me so much in different ways and I hope maybe they can help you as well.

This episode explores three thought-provoking ideas I've been reflecting on lately: the idea of backwards gratitude, the notion that our circumstances may not fully define how good we're actually able to feel in the present moment, and rethinking fundamental attributions of people's essence.

In today’s episode I’ll be sharing 3 things that made me think recently. This is the first episode I recorded video as well, so if you would like to watch that version, it is available on YouTube!

We often view imposter syndrome as something negative to overcome. But I have a different view. Tune in as we discuss why we demonize imposter syndrome in the first place, how to reframe it as an accomplishment, and why seeking discomfort is the true path to progress.

I’m not a big fan of the “just visualize, and it will happen” view of manifestation. But there are real psychological forces that allow our beliefs to shape reality - like self-fulfilling prophecies, the Pygmalion effect, and confirmation bias. In this episode, I'll break down how these work together to create a feedback loop between beliefs, behaviors, perceptions, and outcomes. We'll discuss how your subconscious mind uses evidence to shape your beliefs and intentions, which then influence your actions and what you notice around you. This shapes how others respond to you, further confirming your beliefs. Understanding this cycle is key to examining your beliefs and consciously creating new evidence that your subconscious needs to work in alignment with your life.

Growing up in the digital age I’ve always been aware of the opportunities that social media and the digital landscape bring. I’m also no stranger to the risks of social media and the negative impact it can have on our individual lives as well as society as a whole. In today’s episode I share some frameworks as well as actionable ways I think about and engage with social media in my own life in an effort to maximize the upsides, while minimizing the downsides.
