Oh clickbait. This is something that we all come across and interact with frequently in our lives. In this episode, I read an article from my blog (mattbest.net/theplatform/clickbait) where I discuss my thoughts on it and its implications for us as individuals and for society as a whole. This is a piece that means a lot to me, as I think the message carries a great deal of weight for all of us. I hope you think so, too. As always, thank you for listening and for your attention. It means so so so much to me. Much Love ❤️.

This podcast is dedicated to my experiences with cold showers and the benefits that they can provide. PLEASE hear me out here. As awful as they may sound, cold showers can be INCREDIBLY beneficial. I ask you as kindly as I can to give them a fair shot. After you do it 10 times, it won’t be so bad. You’ll probably even start to see some positive outcomes by then. Email me - [email protected] - when you try it and let me know how it goes for you. As always, Much Love ❤️. Talk soon.

Today’s podcast is about my experience doing a 48 hour fast. This process was quite eye-opening for me and I found it to be extremely beneficial in a number of ways. I discuss those benefits in this episode, which I hope you find intriguing. Fasting is something that not a lot of us think about too often, yet it can have many profound positive effects for us. As always, thanks for tuning in. And please email me (at [email protected]) if you’re thinking about trying it out! I’d love to hear from you and answer any questions that I didn’t get to in this episode. Much Love ❤️.

Why do we wish negative outcomes upon others, especially when they do wrong unto us? What does this bitterness get us? This episode is quite distinct, but I think it is a topic which we fail to discuss enough. Tune in to hear my take. Thanks for your attention here. I appreciate it... and I truly think the world appreciates it as well. Much Love ❤️.

Today’s podcast is a reading of my newest article, which you can find on my blog at mattbest.net/theplatform/responsibility . This is a topic that carries a lot of weight for me, as I think that taking responsibility and shouldering the burden of responsibility is one of the most meaningful things that we can do in life. I hope that this message comes across in this piece. As always, Much Love ❤️.

Today is my birthday. I’m 22. Oddly enough, I have become less and less enthused by my birthday as recent years have come and gone. I have started to see it as just another day on the calendar where I go about my business and live the life I’ve crafted for myself. However, my birthday does provide me with an incredibly unique opportunity which I always relish. Today’s podcast is dedicated to what that opportunity is and what it means to me. I hope you enjoy this follow-up reflection after the last episode and that you find some value in this process that I discuss. I apologize for the yawns, yet I hope you know I am not tired of life. I am, in fact, beyond excited about what’s to come. Thank you so much for the love, support, and attention. Here’s to another year of life. Much Love ❤️.

This was quite a raw yet interesting podcast for me to do, as it was quite “meta” in its essence. I wanted to talk through why it’s so important to reflect, which can only be done through an open reflection. Sounds like a mind blowing concept in theory, but in reality it’s a simple activity that has a great deal of value for me. I sincerely hope that the value of reflection came out in this episode, and I hope you try to implement some of the strategies I mentioned at the end. Thanks again for tuning in. And as always, Much Love ❤️.

This podcast has just about everything. Nick and I were friends in high school, drifted apart a bit through college, then reconnected this past summer. I’m beyond grateful to be able to have a conversation like this one with him. Seeing him grow into a thoughtful and interested person since our high school days has been so reassuring, and I’m excited to see what his life has in store. Tune in to hear our enriching and authentic conversation. Much Love ❤️.

What’s REALLY important? Hayden and I spend some time discovering the answer. It’s intense. It’s vulnerable. It’s open. It’s real. Tune in to hear it all.
