Have you ever wondered why happiness feels like a moving target—something we’re always chasing but rarely catching? Our ability to dream and plan has driven humanity’s success, but it’s also a double-edged sword. In this episode, I explore the hidden challenge of balancing ambition with contentment and the toll it takes when we’re always focused on what’s next.

If you could go back and change one thing, what would it be? There’s something both exhilarating and humbling about reflecting on our past choices, especially the ones we didn’t make. In this episode, I dive into a personal story about my biggest regret from my twenties. It’s not about a missed opportunity or a bad decision but a recurring pattern that kept me from exploring life’s possibilities.

Ever tried building a new habit, only to find yourself giving up almost as quickly as you started? It’s a familiar struggle. Many of us chalk it up to a lack of discipline or motivation, but it turns out that habit-building may have less to do with our willpower and more to do with human nature. In this episode, I dive into the real reason behind why our habits don't stick with insights from behavioral change expert Katy Milkman.

Ever find yourself thinking, “If only I had more time…” or promising that next time you’ll finally get organized? It’s a cycle that traps many of us—blaming poor time management for our unmet goals. But what if the issue isn’t time at all? In this episode, I dive into the origins of “time management” and reveal why it’s not the magic solution we’ve been led to believe.

We’re all navigating a world where image is everything, but it’s hard to show up as our true selves when so much of life demands a polished facade. When my wife and I had our daughter, Ainsley, our life turned upside down in the best way possible—and then, in a moment of boldness (or madness), I left my stable job to pursue a new path. It was a leap that shifted our lives and pulled me into a new version of myself that even I didn’t quite recognize. In a culture that idolizes a highlight reel, it’s all too easy to lose ourselves in the expectations of others. I share how embracing change forced me to confront the gap between who people think I am and who I really am.

Most of us are playing a role, hoping no one notices the quiet battle between how we want to be seen and how we really feel inside. We try to act confident—dress a certain way, say the right things—but it’s often just a mask. In this episode, I’ll dig into why forced confidence doesn’t work and how our subconscious plays a huge role in our self-assurance.

Podcasting seems simple, right? Just a mic, some recording, and maybe fame follows. But there’s a reality here that most people miss. Drawing on my journey since 2018, I share the grit behind the grind, the hours spent speaking to an audience that wasn’t there yet, and the highs and lows of building momentum. It wasn’t until years in that I climbed the charts and saw meaningful signs of success. And while I love the craft, podcasting comes with its unique set of challenges: constant self-doubt, pressure to stay consistent, and facing down the ever-present numbers game. This is a raw, honest look at what it truly takes to make it as a podcaster. Spoiler alert: it’s about a lot more than just hitting “record.”

We live in a world of speed, where new apps reach millions of users in weeks and our inboxes overflow with notifications. The pace of life has skyrocketed, and while this rapid innovation pushes us forward, it often leaves us feeling overwhelmed, overcommitted, and lost. We’re caught up in the “more” mentality, doing more, chasing more, saying yes to everything. We’ve been conditioned to think that success means doing it all, but in reality, it’s about doing less, better. I’ll break down how embracing less can help you reclaim your time, energy, and purpose.

90 days ago, were you thinking about where you'd be today? Probably not. Yet here you are, living the result of the choices you made over the past three months, whether you put in the work or let things slide. Time doesn't wait, and it doesn’t care if you spent those days building better habits or indulging in temporary comforts. All that matters now is what you have to show for it. We hit countless crossroads daily, moments that determine whether we stick to what’s easy or push for something better. But here’s the thing: all that discomfort, all those little decisions—they’re gone now. What’s left is the result. I’ll show you why understanding this can radically shift how you approach the next 90 days.
