The Best Podcast

My 12th quarterly review is now complete, which you can find in its totality at mattbest.net/theplatform/quarter-four-2023 . This quarter was more relaxed than quarter three, but still had a ton of learn and observe. In this third episode of my quarterly review, I talk about topics ranging from a key determinant of likability to how good self-care involves asking yourself good questions. There is a lot more to come, so I hope you stick around. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

After a conversation with some close friends yesterday, a topic stuck out to me that I wanted to share. It’s a question that always makes its way back into my orbit, so I wanted to take some time to better articulate some thoughts on the path from where you are to where you want to be. I hope you find some value in it and can apply it in some way to your life. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

It’s hard to end friendships as an adult. The most common ending is one that is not deliberate. Friendships slip away with no conclusions or final conversations. It’s a new reality that suddenly sneaks up before our very eyes. I talk about my experience with this here, which I hope you find to be useful in some way. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is about the psychological experience of running. But not just any running. Running by yourself with no music or external stimuli. Just you, body and mind, and the earth. Can you handle being alone with yourself for that long? What’s the value of it? I share my experience and why I think it’s so valuable, along with parallels with and divergences from meditation. I hope you enjoy it and find some value in what I discuss. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is about a study by Kyle Mandsager and colleagues from 2018. The findings simply knocked my socks off when I first came across them, so I wanted to share some details about the study with you here. I also take some time to discuss the findings implications and share what you can do about them. As always, thank you for listening. Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

My wife and I had a minor conflict today about checking the weather. Despite it seeming like a topic one can just blow off without a thought, it connected to some really important values in our relationship, so I wanted to discuss it here. I hope you find some value in this perspective. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is a description of a recent exercise I started and am in the middle of completing. In the past, my self-evaluations tended to be through my own lens and analysis. This year, I decided to flip the script and gather others’ points of view. I hope you find value in the exercise I describe and perhaps apply it to your life in some way. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

Today’s podcast is about the best mentor I have ever had. We’ve now been working together for nearly 9 years, and his support has been persistently of the utmost quality. I share more about our relationship here, along with why I wish more people could experience what we’ve shared. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.
