  • Stop Chasing Goals: Growth Happens in the Kairos Moments (S4 E7)
    May 10 2026

    Goals can make us miserable. They promise happiness and fulfillment in the future, yet leave us restless, always chasing what’s next.

    In this episode, Daniel Sih and Matt Bain explore how to move toward a better future while staying grounded in the present. They unpack the idea of Kairos moments—those meaningful interruptions in time that offer direction and purpose when we pay attention.

    When we look for Kairos moments, we find a gentler way forward—one where presence matters more than progress, and enough is already here.

  • The Legacy Trap: Why You Don’t Need To Make A Dent In The Universe (S4 E6)
    Apr 12 2026

    There’s nothing wrong with wanting to make an impact — but too often, our desire to leave a legacy can leave us exhausted and dissatisfied, chasing the wrong things, and neglecting those we truly love.

    In this episode of The Spacemakers, Daniel and Matt explore why we crave significance, how to do big things without tying our self-worth to our legacy, and what it really means to “leave a dent in the universe.” Because maybe our true legacy isn’t what we achieve, but who we become — and the people we love along the way.
