What is a men's retreat? What happens there? Why go to one, and who is it for? I spoke with Owen Marcus, founder of MELD, on my life-changing experience attending my first retreat almost exactly 1 year ago.

Owen is a legend in this space - he has worked alongside Peter Levine. Esther Perel has attended his retreats. Owen has been working, training, and organizing men's groups and retreats for over 30 years.

Highly recommend listening to this if you've been even remotely curious about the topic – this might be my favorite episode of the year.

I chatted with Ian, founder of Seats.aero, on how he grew Seats.aero from a side hobby to an award travel powerhouse with 500K monthly active users and 100K+ paid members in just 3 short years.

What was that journey like, and how does it feel to run a multi-million dollar business in your 20s ? Does he still have time to churn? Tune in for answers to these very important questions 😂

I'm trying new things this year, so I thought "why not livestream this episode"? So I did. The end 😂

I churned a whole bunch of stuff this week and burnt myself out lol (more on that next time), so I'm taking a breather to reflect and explore some root causes for how I feel and live my life today – the seemingly small stressors in my early years that have led to bigger issues like ADHD and CPTSD 🍃

Catching up on a busy couple weeks of churns. From shutdowns to gold to margin and early black friday deals, this episode has a bit of everything.

The leaves are changing and I'm feeling reflective: how did the past year go? What did I learn about myself, the podcast, ketamine, retreats, life (and death)? Maybe grab a nice warm drink and a cozy blanket and take an hour to relax and hang out with me.

Another jam-packed episode recapping all my churns from the last couple weeks. Between catching a cold and family visiting from the East coast, it's been pretty hectic here but also kinda relaxing laying in bed binging Netflix lol. Glad to finally be (mostly) better though 😌

I've caught a cold, so today I'm resharing my absolute FAVORITE episode from the past 4 years. I recorded this back in 2023, and it's still as relevant today (if not more so) as it was then. This is the episode I always recommend to friends, because it's had such a profound impact on my travel, my churns, my life, and I hope it does for yours too. Enjoy!

Chris and I met up during the inaugural TDC meetup in Denver a few weeks ago, and we recorded a live interview with a small "studio" audience in the Regency Club lounge (pics in shownotes!)

After a few hectic weeks, I'm finally back home and catching up on all my churns - opening new Amex and Chase cards, tackling my Citi account lock, eating InKind and Resy credits, applying for HELOCs, dabbling in Costco gold, and much more!
