With a lot of apps out on the market for self-improvement or stress-management, how do you know if they’re effective or, even, backed up with scientific evidence? Today we dive into how you can examine if the app you’re trying out is effective and backed up by science.

We talk about the pros and cons of working from home, and offer practical tips to make the work from home experience more of a positive one.

There are those who shine under the limelight and those who crumble under the pressure. That made us question, “do you actually thrive under pressure?” What makes the two kinds of people different? How can you perform at a high level for a prolonged period of time? 
On this episode of the Not as Advertised Podcast, we explore those questions, the topics of work pressure, the Yerkes-Dodson Law and share some tips on self-care.

We explore whether hard work really does bring you success and what the consequences are of overworking.

Raphael & Ethan announces the new show - Not As Advertised - an investigative series focused on validating the ideas that dominate the personal development and productivity space.  The goal of the show is to ask - "What if the idea or product was not as advertised?"  Through scientific research and data analysis, this show will help you design a personal productivity system that actually works.
