  • #587 The Inherited Self: Breaking the Cycles You Didn't Choose
    May 15 2026

    We all enter adulthood carrying a set of invisible scripts handed down to us by our families and our early environments. But what happens when you realize that the way you handle stress, relationships, or anger wasn't actually chosen by you, but was simply absorbed when you were young? In this episode, we are going to explore the profound practice of self-inquiry—learning how to bravely examine our childhood conditioning so we can consciously keep the beautiful habits we were taught, and permanently break the cycles we are destined to repeat if we stay on autopilot.

  • #586 The Secret to Happiness: Don't Grow Up
    May 8 2026

    If you were to ask one of the most formidable, erudite intellectuals of the 20th century for the secret to happiness, you might expect a complex, highly philosophical answer. Yet, when the brilliant writer William F. Buckley Jr. was asked this very question, his response was simply: 'Don't grow up.' In this episode, we are going to explore why holding onto our childlike wonder is not immature, but rather the ultimate pinnacle of intellectual, artistic, and spiritual maturity."

  • #585 The Kindness Filter: Where to Look When People Are Mean
    May 1 2026

    Have you ever had one of those days where it feels like the whole world woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and everyone you interact with is just a little bit rude? This past weekend, I had an experience at a restaurant where I was surrounded by unkindness, until one stranger stepped in and completely changed the trajectory of my day. In this episode, we are going to talk about the magic of shifting our focus away from the people who drain us, and actively seeking out the smiling faces that the Universe always provides.
