The Isaac Velez Podcast

Hey everyone, my last episode that was published was during my time in Salt Lake City before the move. I’m excited to announce that I am returning to the podcast after a few months away to focus on my career, and there’s a lot of new and exciting concepts and experiences that I can’t wait to share. This episode is the first one of season 5, it is the beginning of a whole different chapter in my life, and it feels good to be back.

Today we are going to be diving into the illusion of control, and why my need for certainty gave me so much in my life, at the cost of some of the other things in my life that I had thought I figured all out.

Hey everyone, it’s been a few months since my last episode, and the next three episodes were recorded during my time in Salt Lake City before the move. I’m excited to announce that I am returning to the podcast after a few months away to focus on my career, and there’s a lot of new and exciting concepts and experiences that I can’t wait to share. This episode, alongside the next two, will mark the end of season 4, not a very long season, but as we step into season 5, it will be the beginning of a whole different chapter in my life, one that will be coming out very soon.
