What do John Cena, UPS shipping, and the immune system have in common? Katie Leonard joins the Symphony crew for an episode stressing the importance of understanding your biology and how it relates to nutrition and health.

Katie recently began a weekly newsletter that covers  the “A-Z” of nutrition. Each week, she picks a new word and sends out an educational email that makes learning about these science heavy terms and topics approachable and fun.

In this episode, she gives us a recap of the words from the first couple of weeks, including “ATP” and “Blood Brain Barrier.” We also get a sneak peek at next week’s word “Endocrine System,” which is made up of all the body’s different hormones, and regulates all biological processes in the body from conception to adulthood.

Lotta hearsay out there these days. Independent thinkers are surely on the endangered species list. So what can you do to expand your own perspectives and keep growing?

We talk about it on the show.  Hope you enjoy.

What lessons do sports and more broadly, competition (it could be chess, go-karting, climbing, or video games) teach that can be applied to other areas of life?

“Sport, what it can do when it works, is it can show you that you can go beyond what you thought your limits were. And you also get to see what the people around you are really made of when there’s no more energy in the brain or the nervous system to cultivate a persona - you can really know, do they show up when it seems like there’s no hope?” - Kyle Kinsbury

Hope you enjoy the episode. Expect to see some guest episodes and someday soon (we promise), some new show formats. We got to spend some time putting our heads together over the holidays and we are only going to add more fuel to this fire.

On that note, if you're interested in writing a how-to piece or any article/blog about something you're interested in, hit us up: [email protected]. We would love to feature your work and record a podcast to discuss it.

Is there a deeper universal purpose to life or are we just a bunch of atoms and electrons?  Maybe there's truth to both? Matthew and Kyle talk about the importance of the stories we tell ourselves and grapple with the topic.

As another year comes to an end, self reflection and goal setting starts to creep back into people's minds. In this week's episode, Matthew shares some recent reflections and quotes from his daily journal that can help listeners reflect on their own progress over the last year. What are some of the things you've grown in this past year? What are some of the things you want to do better? Matthew discusses how putting things down into a journal can help you collect your thoughts, map out where you are, and where you're trying to go.

Who are you when no one’s looking? 

What is more important - how you appear to other people? Or how you feel about yourself? Spending time alone in self reflection is an important piece of growing as a human being. Matthew and Kyle are joined this week by editor and collaborator Kid Brian to discuss the importance of working on the side of yourself that no one sees.  

How do you spend your time when it’s only you? Is the message you're projecting to the outside world different from what’s going on inside your head? Are you comfortable spending time alone with your thoughts? External validation can be fleeting and hollow. 

When we figure out how to become intrinsically validated through aligning our actions with our values, we create all the motivation we need to keep living happily from an authentic place. How you appear to others will never quite be the full picture. That’s why you are the only judge that really matters. Can you look yourself in the eye, knowing all your deepest truths, and feel good about how you’re showing up in the world? If not, what needs to change?

There are a few questions you can ask yourself to get into a reflective or introspective mindset. Matthew and Kyle dig into the question and open up about their current challenges.

Ultimately we're all at different stages, circumstances and with different goals... so there won't be a one-size fits all solution. But if we really listen to our intuition and create the environment necessary for self-reflection, we can avoid falling into ruts and bad habits.

What are you working on personally right now? When you ask yourself this question what are the top 2-3 things that come up? We would genuinely LOVE to hear your responses. Shoot us a DM on Instagram @thesymphonypodcast or an email directly to [email protected]

Cheers and have a great week!
