The Great Unlearn

As we step into a new year, I wanted to pause and pay gratitude to the incredible guests who joined me on The Great Unlearn in 2025. Each conversation carried depth from lived experience, from truth-telling and vulnerability to curiosity and courage, each guests showed up fully to share their unlearning moments.

I also want to thank you, our Unlearn community, the ones who return week after week, who sit with these conversations and reflect just as deeply. Thank you for walking this path with me. Excited to see what we create in 2026!

I recently joined Preston Douglas Boyer on his Liquid Life podcast for a wide-open, deep dive into my experience of waking up to what truly matters in my life. It gave me the chance to share my unfiltered truth in a big way.

We explore my evolution and lessons as a father, my path through psychedelics, and how all of it weaves together to support a new way of being in the world. So if you’re unlearning the roles you once held and feeling the pull toward a new identity, I hope you’ll listen in.

Chase Hughes has spent decades studying human behavior, influence, profiling, and covert mind-control tactics — working at the intersection of psychology, military intelligence, and persuasion science.

We explore what makes someone easy to influence, manipulate, or control, and how can we flip that script. Because the same blueprint used to break down a person’s will can also be used to rebuild sovereignty and create healing instead of harm.
