  • Episode 737: All This for What?
    Today’s podcast is about a piece of feedback I received from my wife yesterday. Trying to optimize across so many fronts can be draining sometimes, even as we strive toward greater wellness and well-being. When we step back to ask what the optimization is for, it is precisely in the pursuit of those outcomes. How can we toe this line and keep ourselves well with high expectations? This is the question I entertain here, for which I hope you find value in hearing my take. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 736: Mental Reset
    Today’s podcast is one that is very “in the moment.” It’s a reflection on the way my day rapidly changed with just a couple of actions - deep focus on a task that meant something to me, along with a long run. It’s stunning to me how our mental states can change so much through a small number of choices we make, which I hope you can grasp and feel in this episode. Thank you so much for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 735: Negative Internal Dialogue
    Negative internal dialogue has a silver lining if we allow it to shine through. In fact, it can do a lot for us, even more than neutral or positive internal dialogue in many cases. I share more about this here, along with how we can make it helpful to us, which I hope you find valuable. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 734: Kicking Off 2024
    In today’s podcast, I share my experience starting the new year at Copacabana beach with my wife, her family, and some good friends of ours. It was truly a spectacle. Given New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day are always quite distinct days, there is a lot to learn if we stop to take them in on the other side, which is what I do here. I hope you find some value in the episode. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 733: Three Years of Writing
    Today’s podcast is an intense one, so I hope you listen close and let this one sit with you. I talk about what I’ve taken from writing everyday for the last three years and the quarterly review process I have embarked on. It has brought me so much more than I expected, which I’m sure you will hear in my voice. Thank you for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 732: A New Christmas Experience
    This year, I spent Christmas away from home and away from my family for the first time. It was a very new experience for me and it opened my eyes to a few things, which I wanted to take some time to reflect on and share. I hope you enjoy it and find some value in my words. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 731: Cleaning the Bathroom
    By the title, you might be asking if I’m running out of topics to talk about on the podcast. I ensure you that is not the case. Instead, observing the self as we orient ourselves around and approach mundane tasks, such as cleaning a bathroom, can be quite informative if we pay attention. I share a personal experience here, which I hope does a good job of showcasing this point. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 730: Social Dynamics
    Today’s podcast digs into some observations I’ve had about social dynamics, particularly relating to the gym. We see the same people, day after day, week after week, but we never say hello and connect with them. I explore why this might be the case and my observations of this behavior in my own experiences. Perhaps you’ll find it interesting to ponder. Thanks for listening. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.

  • Episode 729: The Deification of Randomness
    Today’s podcast is about randomness and the massive role it plays in our lives. It’s present in the big stuff, the little stuff, and everything in between. I hope you enjoy what I present here and find it to be thought provoking. I appreciate you taking the time to listen. As always, Much Love ❤️ and please take care.
