  • Episode 768: Real Thinking
    In today’s podcast, I describe what I think of as real thinking, which is so rare to come across nowadays. And I get it, because I struggle with it too, as much as I strive toward more thinking in the category I define here. It takes discipline, focus, and coordination to facilitate it. I hope you find it to be a valuable insight. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 765: Value
    Today’s podcast is an answer to a question posed during my walk with Gabi today. Many people early in life aren’t sure which path to follow and which decisions to make to live a good life. I provide some insights into this, both connected to value. One is personal values and the second is becoming valuable to others. I hope this episode serves you well! Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 764: A Constellation of Possibilities
    Today’s podcast is inspired by a recent conversation with a colleague about a goal I had for my life right before I turned eighteen. I reflected on that goal and how I relate to it today, which I thought was useful to share here. I hope you think so, too. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 763: The Work
    In my experience, we rarely take the time with friends and people close to us to talk about our work and the quality of that work, despite how much weight it carries in our lives. It’s much more sexy to talk about politics, exercise, the news, and other people. I dig into this topic in today’s podcast, which I hope brings you value in some way. As always, thanks for listening. Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 762: Degrees of Certainty
    Today’s podcast is about just how little we know. My wife frequently enriches my perspective by showing me a very different angle from which I can look at situations, which makes my understanding much more complete. I discuss what this has taught me, along with some additional reflections on the pros and cons of certainty. I hope you find this to be useful. As always, thanks for listening. Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 761: Running in the Rain
    On the way home from the gym today, I ran in the rain to get back for the last half of my trip back. So much came to me in those few minutes of life, so I wanted to digest it by sharing it here. I hope you find some value in it. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 760: Rethinking Politics
    In a recent conversation with some friends, we got into talking about what politics is and how most people think about politics. My perspective diverged significantly from what is considered the norm, so I wanted to share it here to see if it resonates with you all. I hope it does. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 759: Thirteen Months On…
    I haven’t posted on social media in 13 months. As I took a long flight last weekend, I took some time to take stock of what has happened over that time span. That reflection resulted in this piece, which I share with you today, along with a request at the end. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.
