  • #26: Navigating Funemployment and Emotions by Way of Stoicism with Shahyan Jahani

    It’s Election Day, babyyy! Get out there and do your civic duty. Even if you don’t care about the shit show that has been this presidential race, focus on your local leaders where it will surely impact you most directly.

    This week on The Dying Project I chatted with Shahyan Jahani. He’s a cool, comedic cat that is on the hunt for a job and doing lots on the side— like so many of us right now. We talk about navigating unemployment and what’s it been like to sit with ourselves for so long. We dive into stoicism, the concept of ‘amor fati’, and the personal growth game.

  • #25: The Science Behind Passion and Getting Unblocked with Kira Day

    Kira Day knows her shit when it comes to passion, way beyond the buzzword. Our conversations typically devolve into rambles about the science behind the ‘woo’. We chat about  what passion actually is, ways in which we are learning to set boundaries, and why social and emotional intelligence is the most integral part to the solution needed in the world today.

    She and I are working on some cool things together and I can’t wait to let y’all in on it.

  • #24: Sex, Relationships, and Doing the Work with Mackenzie Selby

    Mackenzie Selby is the most honest and mentally/emotionally strong person that I know. I value her insights and talks more than any other person on this planet. I've known her since high school and we went down some very dark places together...not only that but we also started our healing together. We went from a life of debauchery all before ever taking a legal drink to getting sober and doing the work--and continuing to do the work. 

    She has worked in the mental health space for the past ten years and knows the in's and out's of helping folks get on the right path.  We talk a lot about our own shit, including relationships, sex, and things we've learned this past year.

    Disclaimer: Mackenzie is one of my oldest and closest friends and confidants, we tend to use colorful language more than normal in this episode.

  • #23: Becoming the Science Experiment with Me, Myself, and I

    Welcome to The Dying Project! Happy to be back podcasting and connecting with you fine folks. I realized that I'm going to be asking my guests to get honest, so I should do the same. In this episode, I talk about navigating some pretty serious health issues that I ran into late last year that were compounded with the quest for balance with ongoing mental health issues. That plus whatever tangents I veer off for--can't wait to share the upcoming episodes where I chat with other people besides myself.   

    Thanks so much for all of your support, it means the world to me.

  • #21: To Change the World, Change Yourself with Catherine Sherlock

    Sustainable League Ep. 21 X Catherine Sherlock Change the World, Change Yourself

    This is one of my favorite conversations, recorded pre-pandemic. Before we started this podcast we took 6 deep breaths and I would encourage you to do the same before listening to this. Catherine spent 20+ years in the environmental space before making a shift into something that would allow to have deeper impact, something that she used most of her life—MINDFULNESS.

    • Evolve.
    • Less about meditation, more about brain states.
    • Your ego is not bad.
    • Your emotions, ALL OF THEM, are okay. Don’t push them away, connect with them instead.
    • Mindset Shift > Environmental Changes

    • #20: Supporting Local and Marketing Efforts Through Quarantine Times with Clay Thomas

      Clay Thomas, previously VP of Marketing at Green Lotus Hemp and now Founder of Denton Creative, is a wiz in all things branding, marketing, and technology. If you don't have the marketing resources, but need help in any of those arenas...check out his AMAZING blog. It is chock full of resources that would be insanely valuable to any brick & mortar where—you didn’t put much into digital before and are having to make that transition now. Or hire him, NOW. Seriously.

      We’re seeing tons of smaller/mid size businesses shutting down as this pandemic continues on and I personally don’t want to live in a world where small businesses don’t exist. As a community, as businesses, as individuals—we can pull our resources and lend a hand where we can. Whether that be through volunteering efforts or offering up your years of experience in marketing or whatever skill it may be.

    • #18: Mental Health and Unconventional Modes of Healing with Lee Everette

      This week on Sustainable League, I chat with Lee Everette. He’s a mental health and alignment coach, mental health speaker, podcast host and retreat leader. All of this stems from an interesting mental health journey early on in his life. We dive into his OCD diagnosis, what it looked like to change that narrative and explored some unconventional ways of managing depression. Although these ways are slowly becoming more mainstream, research for yourself and draw your own conclusions.

    • #17: Not Sustainable League, But Still Sustainable with Ryan Harper

      Last week, I was a guest on the Ryan Harper Podcast and it was a lot of FUN.  We dove into sustainability, how to not suck as a human, and some other ridiculous topics. This is not Sustainable League, but there are a lot of legitimate insights that are useful in this realm. It's a very candid convo, you have been warned!

      Side notes:

      Buy Lululemon second hand if you’re going to do it. https://goodonyou.eco/how-ethical-lululemon/

      Sustainability (surviving) vs resiliency (thriving).
