    What's Your Misogi? Why It's Never Too Late for a Big Adventure What if you chose one challenge each year that was so meaningful—and just a little bit intimidating—that you weren't sure you could actually accomplish it? That's the idea behind Misogi, a Japanese-inspired concept centered on taking on a difficult, transformative challenge. It doesn't have to be a huge physical feat or an extreme adventure. The goal is to step beyond your comfort zone, test yourself, and discover what you're capable of. In this episode, we explore why deliberately doing hard things can be so powerful, especially as we get older. A Misogi can give you something exciting to work toward, create a sense of purpose, and remind you that adventure and personal growth don't have an expiration date. Whether your Misogi is climbing a mountain, tackling a challenging trek, learning something completely new, or simply doing something that scares you a little, the important question is: What would you love to accomplish if you weren't afraid of failing?

    318. The Gift of Friendship

    Girl, Take the Lead!

    What makes a friendship meaningful?Is it how long it lasts? How often we talk? Or could the gift of friendship be something else entirely—the experience of knowing another person and allowing ourselves to be known?This Sound Bite was inspired by my recent conversation with my longtime friend Roz Sobel.Roz and I met almost 50 years ago through work. Later, when I moved across the country to New York knowing only one person, that person was Roz.And then life did what life does.Our paths changed. Careers changed. Families grew. There were times when our lives were closely connected and times when they weren't.And almost 50 years later, there we were—together again for a conversation on Girl, Take the Lead!It got me thinking about the gift of friendship.There's a certain knowing that comes from sharing a particular time in someone's life.A childhood friend knew something about the child we once were. A work friend may understand a chapter of our career few others could. Friends we meet while raising children, experiencing loss or navigating a transition can become witnesses to versions of ourselves that no one we meet today can ever fully know.There is love and care in that.But I wonder if many of us also carry a belief that a really good friendship is supposed to last forever.What if it doesn't?Maybe some friendships aren't meant to accompany us through every chapter. Maybe their gift was the chapter we shared.The love was still real. The care was still real. What we gave one another still mattered.And sometimes we receive another wonderful gift:Our paths cross again.This reflection also connects to something somatic nurse coach Lisa Ketcham-Hendrickson shared with us recently: “This is always home.”If we can learn to come home to ourselves, perhaps we don't need another person to stay forever in order to prove that our relationship mattered.Maybe friendship isn't something we're supposed to collect.Maybe it's something we're fortunate enough to experience—for a season, for decades, for a lifetime, or sometimes, more than once.A Question to ConsiderWho has known a part of you that no one else could quite know—and what gift from that friendship are you still carrying?The Conversation That Inspired This Sound BiteEp. 317 — There's So Much Life to Enjoy: Travel, Curiosity & Adventure with Roz SobelWatch: https://youtu.be/phAJXqPPjpcMore on FriendshipIf you'd like to explore friendship further, check out:Ep. 207 — Building Meaningful Friendships: Overcoming Loneliness and Finding JoyEp. 134 — Friendship Realities: Fizzles, Changes, and Coping StrategiesEp. 131 — True to You: Embracing Authenticity in Friendships with NoorJehanComing NextBroadway actress, bestselling author and success coach Leslie Becker joins us to explore bravery, limiting beliefs, transitions and creativity—including a question I've continued thinking about:What if bravery isn't a personality trait—but a choice?Connect with Girl, Take the Lead!

    Enough: How Do You Know When You Have Enough?More is everywhere. But where is enough?Money. Work. Fitness. Achievement. Adventure. Information. Growth. Ambition.Modern life is remarkably good at telling us what to pursue, but much less interested in telling us when to stop.In this episode, Evan Sutter explores the idea of enough and why it might be one of the more difficult questions we can ask when thinking about a good life.Is enough a number? A feeling? A decision? Something we discover only after we've gone too far?And perhaps the more uncomfortable question:If we don't decide what enough means, who—or what—will decide it for us?The conversation continues the philosophical thread of recent episodes:Death: What matters?Attention: Where is my life actually going?Enough: When is it enough?Evan explores the tension between ambition and contentment, asking whether “more” is really the problem—or whether the more important question is more in service of what?Because building a business for freedom can eventually leave you with no freedom. Pursuing money for security can become an endless pursuit of more. And ambition that once served a meaningful life can quietly become the thing around which the entire life is organised.Perhaps knowing enough doesn't diminish ambition.Perhaps it frees ambition from desperation.And perhaps the real challenge is learning to recognise the difference between ambition and restlessness wearing ambition's clothes.Questions to sit withHow do you know when you've had enough?Enough work?Enough exercise?Enough information?Enough stress?Enough achievement?Enough people?Enough solitude?Enough ambition?And perhaps most importantly:Enough for what?Enough for whom?In this episode00:00 — What does “enough” actually mean? 02:00 — Why more doesn't tell us when to stop 04:00 — When the thing serving your life becomes the thing your life revolves around 06:00 — Enough, attention and awareness 08:00 — Is enough a form of freedom? 10:00 — Seasons and why enough keeps moving 12:00 — Who gets to define enough? 14:00 — Ambition vs. restlessness 16:00 — Can we trust the feeling of enough? 18:00 — So, how do you know?Timings are approximate Continue the conversationExplore more Field Notes, philosophy and reflections on ambition, aliveness, flourishing and the good life at EvanSutter.com.You can also download 42, Evan's free book of reflections and observations from 42 years alive.

    Workplace and leadership surveys show an overwhelming consensus among business leaders regarding the importance of team connection: ·         90% of employers state that fostering a sense of community and connection at work is crucial for business success. ·         71% of executives believe that strong employee engagement—often built through shared goals and team activities—is a core driver of their company's success. ·         47% of executives explicitly invest in employee experience initiatives to improve team collaboration. According to Harvard Business School and workplace satisfaction and engagement surveys, these statistics reinforce an essential reality: human connection, engagement, shared purpose, and collaboration are fundamental ingredients for organizational success. But what happens when those same principles are taken far beyond the traditional workplace—and into the Costa Rican jungle? Jason Westlake is an entrepreneur, adventure travel leader, author of Jungle Whispering, and co-owner of Tierra de Sueños Retreat & Wellness Center in Costa Rica. For 17 years, Jason has guided people toward unforgettable experiences while building a business and lifestyle centered on adventure, connection, courage, and community. The retreat center has hosted more than 267 retreats, supported by a diverse team committed to giving guests an uplifting and memorable experience. Jason's own adventures have taken him far beyond the familiar. From kayaking with killer whales and tracking gorillas in Africa to living deep in the Amazon with Indigenous communities, wrestling anacondas, and coming face-to-face with jaguars, his experiences have reinforced a powerful lesson: some of life's greatest opportunities begin just outside our comfort zones. At Tierra de Sueños, that philosophy extends to the entire guest experience. Nestled in the jungle near Playa Chiquita and Puerto Viejo, the retreat brings together different cultures, languages, locally sourced food, yoga, nature, adventure, and community. Behind it all is a team dedicated to helping visitors experience Costa Rica in an authentic and unforgettable way. In this episode of Let's Have This Conversation, Jason and I explore what happens when business and adventure become partners rather than competitors. We discuss overcoming fear, stepping beyond comfort zones, creating strong teams, building a business that supports the life you actually want to live, embracing cultural experiences, and designing once-in-a-lifetime moments people never forget. How much of the life we want exists just beyond the boundaries we've created for ourselves? And can entrepreneurial success be measured not only by what we build—but by the freedom, connection, adventure, and memories we're able to create along the way? Join us for a conversation about business, adventure, courage, human connection, and what it truly means to build a life on your own terms.   For more information: https://tierradesuenoslodge.com/ Email: jason@jasonwestlakecoach.com Get the Book: https://www.amazon.ca/Jungle-Whispering-Influence-Jason-Westlake-ebook/dp/B01IANR5ZG/ref=sr_1_7?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.2WamUAO73OQ4fMKQyx_3YDKABV0NO3kXVNLOO4KpyZwRDdyRePN_QL3w9w4WQEN3JAu0qf_Gy1Fit6Zli0ByVZgZkhZVSol-xG6D9Tt4x0iprcOV1QPyez_R-TZqel8M.-30SXJQvWeXo_P3i8h8uy1zuhz6mMmlv6Ip9Q-j2PU0&dib_tag=se&qid=1788369657&refinements=p_27%3AJason+Westlake&s=digital-text&sr=1-7&text=Jason+Westlake Learn more about your ad choices.

    The team discussed recent updates and personal experiences. Keith shared details about a problematic incident involving their grandson, Rahim, who damaged their Toyota Highlander vehicle while it was in his care. The vehicle sustained significant damage, including a crushed unibody, and the insurance company is likely to total it. Rahim has since disappeared, and his access to the family home has been disabled. The group also briefly discussed local movie productions in St. Louis and Litchfield, and Keith mentioned attending a wedding at a barn in Iuka, Illinois over the weekend.

News of the Week The team discussed several unusual news stories during their meeting. Terry shared a story about a Dutch TV host who built a car shaped like a wooden shoe that reached 70 mph, while Jill reported on the 65th annual German finger wrestling championship in Bavaria, where competitors tie middle fingers together and try to pull opponents across a table. Keith presented fake movie reviews for three upcoming films: “Confinement,” “I Want Your Sex,” and “Just Play Dead.” Additionally, Terry shared a story about a sheep that accidentally boarded a bus and went through a car wash, and Jill discussed a cat with 29 digits that set a new record for polydactyly. Keith shared slang words from the week, including “Ohio,” and Terry closed out with a story about a venomous snake found inside a high school football helmet in Arkansas. Jill's Trivia Quiz Jill led a quiz about Dolly Parton, covering topics such as her birthplace, instruments she plays, and notable songs. The participants answered questions about Dolly Parton’s career, including her famous song collaborations and album releases. Terry's Top 10 List Terry presented a top 10 list of ridiculous things people do when nobody is looking, covering behaviors like pretending to be in shampoo commercials, arguing with imaginary people, checking for the “Snack Fairy,” and rehearsing acceptance speeches. The group discussed various examples from the list, with Keith and Jill sharing personal experiences related to the behaviors described. Anchor Topic This is the part of our show where we discuss blindness-related topics. Skipping our scheduled topic on computers, we spent our time focusing on living skills—specifically, how to make cake pops. Keith and Jill discussed different types of wedding cakes, including regular cake, cupcakes, and cake popsicles (also known as cake sickles), with Jill sharing her experience making them for baby showers. They described the step-by-step process of making cake popsicles: crumbling cake, adding frosting, and dipping them in chocolate. Jill suggested using egg cartons for drying to help maintain their shape. Email and Final Thoughts Keith shared a humorous true crime story about a car burglary incident involving a K9 unit and a suspect’s comment about the dog having a “taste for dark meat.” He also read a listener’s email about a man discovering lettuce growing from his rear end, which he reported to his doctor. Keith played a voicemail from a listener who shared a story about an “accidental divorce” following an unnoticed birthday. Finally, Keith wrapped up the show with a story about a bus driver who provided accurate life advice based on passengers’ destinations over several months, eventually leading to a romantic relationship and engagement. The final word from our AI companion The show featured a segment of comedy jokes and puns from multiple participants, including jokes about binary code, Homer Simpson, pirates, and various wordplay. Keith concluded the episode by encouraging listeners to visit the website, share the show with friends, and leave messages with funny stories or questions about blindness for potential inclusion in future episodes.

Diamond Comics originally intended to sell the stock to pay their bills, but a flurry of legal activity brought that to an end. This agreement is a big deal for Paizo.I attended the Paizo address at GenCon and was very critical of the way it was structured. It was clear to me that Paizo built a wall to avoid having to talk about any of their financial troubles, but after this announcement it is clear that they couldn't because of this legal settlement.Mike, what does this news mean for Paizo going forward?[Kick to Mike]Christina, Will Paizo bounce back right away or will it take some time to get their stride back?[Kick to Christina]Up next is as they say, something completely different, and I think that is pretty cool.https://www.enworld.org/threads/classic-horror-dark-conspiracy-rpg-returns-using-traveller-rules.720279/The classic dark horror urban fantasy game Dark Conspiracy's is back and this time with a different rules system. Dark Conspiracy was originally printed by Games Designer's Workshop in 1991 and the setting was post-apocalyptic where the players were demon hunters facing off against an incursion of monsters in a near future world. The game has had three editions by three different companies, but the new version is being published by Mongoose and will be using the Traveller rules. That might be a first for me. I don't think I have seen the Traveller rules used to play anything other then Sci-Fi. I love Traveller so I think this is pretty cool. I only hope they keep the lifepath system.Mike, What do you make of this?[Kick to Mike]Christina, what about you, does this interest you?[Kick to Christina]And there you have it, all the news, you've already heard.

    Today we are talking about something that I think we all need to know about…  How to reset your dopamine. And before you think this is going to be one of those extreme episodes where I tell you to throw your phone into the ocean, stop drinking coffee, sit in a dark room for three days and eliminate everything fun from your life… That is absolutely not what we are doing. Because dopamine isn't bad. We need dopamine. Dopamine is part of what makes us want things. Pursue things. Work toward goals. Get up and go. The problem is that we are living in an environment where we can get enormous amounts of stimulation with almost zero effort. Open Instagram. Refresh your email. Check likes. Open TikTok. Eat something hyper-palatable. Buy something. Get a notification. Watch another episode. Click another video. Check your texts. Pick up your phone because you have 17 seconds with nothing to do. We have essentially eliminated boredom. And I think we need to talk about what that is doing to us. Because I don't think most people have a motivation problem. I think some people have made normal life too boring compared to the stimulation they consume all day long.   Think about this. Working toward a goal is slow. Building a business is slow. Getting stronger is slow. Improving a relationship is slow. Reading a book is slow. Learning something difficult is slow.     But your phone can give you novelty every half second. So what happens when your brain gets accustomed to incredibly stimulating rewards that require almost no effort? The things that actually build an awesome life can start feeling painfully boring.   And THAT is what I want to change today. I've been going deep into what Andrew Huberman, Chris Williamson, Stanford addiction psychiatrist Anna Lembke, Peter Attia and Gary Brecka have discussed around dopamine, reward, pleasure, discomfort and motivation. And there is one massive theme that keeps coming up: We need to stop getting so many rewards without earning them.   We need less cheap dopamine… And more earned dopamine. More accomplishment dopamine. More anticipation. More effort. More challenge. More doing hard things and feeling awesome afterward.   So today we're going to talk about what dopamine actually does, why our modern environment can completely screw with our motivation, what people mean by a dopamine reset, and most importantly… How we actually do it. Not forever. Not perfectly. But intentionally enough that normal life starts feeling interesting again.       Because imagine waking up and actually WANTING to work on your goals. Imagine sitting in your car without immediately opening your phone. Imagine finishing a workout and letting that accomplishment be the reward instead of instantly needing another stimulus. Imagine being fully engaged in dinner. Or a conversation. Or a walk. Or your kids. Or your work. That's what we're after. Not less enjoyment. More enjoyment from the things that actually matter. FIRST… WHAT IS DOPAMINE? Dopamine isn't simply the "pleasure chemical" This is probably the biggest misunderstanding. Dopamine plays a huge role in motivation, pursuit, learning, reinforcement and determining what your brain decides is worth pursuing again. Think less "this makes me happy" and more: "Go get that again." It's a molecule heavily involved in wanting and pursuing. Huberman explains dopamine in terms of baseline and peaks You have a baseline level of dopamine. Then certain experiences generate temporary increases above that baseline. The important part is what happens afterward. A big dopamine peak can be followed by a period where dopamine activity falls below where it was previously. This is part of why something incredible can sometimes leave you feeling strangely flat afterward. The higher and more frequently we chase enormous peaks, the more ordinary activities can start losing their appeal. Think about it like contrast If you eat incredibly sweet processed foods all day… A blueberry doesn't taste very sweet. There isn't anything wrong with the blueberry. Your reference point changed. The same general concept applies here. When your environment becomes filled with intense stimulation… Quiet feels boring. Reading feels boring. Work feels boring. Walking feels boring. A normal conversation feels boring. Your life didn't necessarily become boring. Your stimulation threshold changed. WHAT I MEAN BY "CHEAP DOPAMINE" I'm going to use the phrase cheap dopamine throughout this episode even though scientifically dopamine itself isn't cheap or expensive. What I mean is: A high-reward experience requiring very little effort. Things like: Endless short-form videos Constant social media refreshing Notifications Online shopping Gambling Highly processed foods Video games for hours and hours Constant snacking Drinking Continually checking texts Refreshing email Internet rabbit holes Watching episode after episode after episode Constant novelty And here's the key… None of those things has to be inherently evil. It's the dose. The frequency. And whether you've lost control over your consumption. There's a massive difference between choosing to watch a movie on Saturday night… And being literally unable to stand in an elevator for 25 seconds without checking your phone. That's the part I want us to notice. THE WORLD HAS REMOVED THE WAITING This might be one of the biggest problems. Almost everything used to have some friction. You wanted food? You cooked it. You wanted entertainment? You waited until your show came on. You wanted to talk to your friend? You called them. Maybe they weren't home. You wanted to buy something? You drove somewhere. You wanted information? You found a book. Now? Everything is immediate. Food. Entertainment. Shopping. Attention. Validation. Communication. Information. Novelty. Almost every human desire has an app attached to it. And our brains evolved in an environment where rewards generally required work. Now we can receive reward after reward while lying horizontally on the couch. That is a massive mismatch. THE PLEASURE-PAIN SEESAW One of my favorite explanations comes from Dr. Anna Lembke. She describes pleasure and pain almost like opposite sides of a balance. When we repeatedly push hard toward pleasure… Our brain tries to restore balance. And over time, you may need more of the stimulus just to experience the same effect. This is incredibly obvious with severe addiction. But I think it's useful to recognize much milder versions in ourselves. Have you ever: Opened Instagram for five minutes and 45 minutes disappeared? Finished a show and immediately needed another episode? Finished dessert and started looking for something else sweet? Checked one notification and then somehow checked four different apps? Picked up your phone without consciously deciding to? That automatic reaching is important. You aren't necessarily choosing anymore. You're responding. And I want us to get back into choosing. WHY NOTHING FEELS EXCITING ANYMORE Sometimes people say: "I'm unmotivated." "I don't feel like working." "I can't concentrate." "I'm bored." "I don't really feel excited about anything." Obviously there can be many medical, psychological and situational reasons for those feelings. But there is another question worth asking: How much stimulation are you consuming? Because if you're exposing yourself to novelty constantly… Your brain never gets a chance to be bored enough to create. Never bored enough to think. Never bored enough to solve a problem. Never bored enough to decide what you actually want. We're treating boredom like an emergency. I actually think boredom is incredibly productive. Some of my best ideas happen when there's nothing else coming into my brain. And we are filling every single empty pocket.   DOPAMINE STACKING Huberman talks about something that I think is fascinating: stacking multiple dopamine-producing experiences together. Think about a workout. Exercise itself can be rewarding. But now we add: Pre-workout. Favorite playlist. Phone. Texts. Social media. Energy drink. Maybe stimulants. Maybe a reward meal afterward. Maybe we post the workout and check responses. We've taken one intrinsically rewarding activity and stacked reward upon reward upon reward. And his point isn't that you can never do those things. It's that you don't necessarily want every good experience in life turned up to 100 every single time. Sometimes train without the perfect playlist. Sometimes walk without the podcast. Sometimes drink the coffee without simultaneously scrolling Instagram. Sometimes eat without watching television. Separate the rewards. You don't have to eliminate pleasure. Stop supercharging every experience. LEARN TO LOVE EFFORT This might be my favorite part of the entire episode. We need to stop making the reward exclusively something that comes AFTER the work. "I'll work out and then I can have this." "I'll finish this project and then I'll reward myself." "I'll complete my work and then I'll scroll." There's nothing wrong with celebrating accomplishments. But we also want to train ourselves to associate the effort itself with something positive. Because if the entire purpose of doing something difficult is the reward waiting at the end… The work becomes something you're trying to escape. Instead: "This discomfort means I'm getting stronger." "This is hard because I'm growing." "I'm proud of myself for doing this when I don't feel like doing it." "This is what keeping promises to myself feels like." "This is who I am." That shift is huge. The workout becomes the win. Doing the work becomes the win. Keeping the promise becomes the win. USE DISCOMFORT ON PURPOSE This theme comes up across a lot of these conversations. We're living in an unbelievably comfortable world. Temperature-controlled houses. Food everywhere. Cars. Couches. Entertainment. Delivery. Escalators. Amazon. Everything is optimized to eliminate friction. But voluntary discomfort can be incredibly valuable. Exercise. Walking. Strength training. Running. Sauna. Cold exposure when appropriate and done safely. Doing something physically difficult. Getting outside when conditions aren't perfect. Taking the stairs. Having the difficult conversation. Doing the work you're avoiding. The idea isn't: "Suffering is good." The idea is: Stop organizing your entire life around avoiding discomfort. Because challenge followed by satisfaction is very different from pleasure followed by emptiness. One you earned. One you consumed. We need both fun and hard things. But modern life has heavily tilted us toward consumption. DON'T START YOUR DAY WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S DOPAMINE Here's something I think would change a lot of people's lives. Do not roll over and immediately hand your brain to your phone. Because instantly you've got: Texts. News. Instagram. Email. TikTok. Other people's emergencies. Other people's opinions. Other people's lives. Other people's accomplishments. Other people's bodies. Other people's vacations. Other people's businesses. Other people's problems. Before you've even decided what YOU want your day to look like. I would rather protect that first part of the morning. Wake up. Water. Sunlight. Walk. Workout. Journal. Think. Plan. Work. Whatever your routine is. Just don't immediately flood your brain with novelty. You should decide the direction of your day before an algorithm decides it for you. THE 2.0 DOPAMINE RESET Okay. Here is what I would actually do. Not some insane internet detox. A realistic reset. RULE #1: Identify YOUR cheap dopamine Ask yourself: What do I compulsively reach for? Not what does the internet tell me is bad. What has control over ME? Maybe yours is: Instagram. TikTok. Shopping. Sugar. Video games. News. YouTube. Email. Texting. Something else. Identify the top one or two. Don't try to become a monk overnight. RULE #2: Take a meaningful break from the biggest offender If something truly feels compulsive, consider taking a real period away from it rather than constantly trying to moderate it. Try deleting it for a week. Maybe two. Maybe 30 days. See what happens. You might be shocked by how often your hand reaches for an app that isn't there. That's valuable information. RULE #3: Stop filling every gap This is a HUGE one. We're bringing back empty space. Stand in line. Just stand there. Drive five minutes. No podcast. Walk around the block. No headphones. Sit outside. Do nothing. Take a shower without content playing. Cook dinner without a video. You are retraining yourself to tolerate a lower level of stimulation. And here's the funny thing… After a while it doesn't feel low stimulation. It feels peaceful. RULE #4: Create phone-free zones Pick places where your phone does not belong. Examples: Bedroom Dinner table Gym Family time Bathroom First hour of the morning Last hour before bed Don't rely purely on willpower. Change your environment. Leave the phone somewhere else. Make the bad habit inconvenient. RULE #5: Turn off almost every notification Notifications are someone else deciding when your attention moves. Think about that. Unless something legitimately requires immediate attention… Turn it off. RULE #6: Stop stacking everything Coffee + Instagram + television + food + texting? No. Pick one. Workout + podcast + scrolling between sets + energy drink + Instagram? Simplify it. Let an experience stand alone. Food can just be food. Coffee can just be coffee. A walk can just be a walk. A conversation can just be a conversation. RULE #7: Get your dopamine through pursuit This is the big replacement strategy. You can't just remove things. You need better things to move toward. Exercise. Building something. Learning. Working. Creating. Sports. Relationships. Adventure. Goals. Competition. Skill. Experiences. Meaningful challenges. Get obsessed with something difficult. That is completely different than being addicted to consumption. RULE #8: Do one hard thing every day I love this rule. Every day, intentionally do something that you'd rather avoid. Workout hard. Make the phone call. Send the proposal. Clean the closet. Have the conversation. Finish the project. Run the hill. Get into the cold water if that's safe for you. Walk when you'd rather sit. Do the thing you've been procrastinating. You start creating evidence: "I don't have to feel like doing something in order to do it." That is power. RULE #9: Prioritize sleep Your brain isn't operating independently of your body. If you're chronically sleep-deprived, everything becomes harder. Motivation. Impulse control. Training. Food choices. Emotional regulation. Focus. Peter Attia and Huberman both hammer sleep for a reason. If we're trying to optimize our brain while sleeping five hours… We're focusing on the wrong end of the problem. RULE #10: Morning sunlight and movement Huberman talks frequently about getting outdoor light early in the day to anchor your circadian system. I love pairing that with movement. Outside. Walk. Light. No Instagram. Let your nervous system wake up naturally. It's incredibly simple. And simple things done repeatedly tend to beat complicated hacks. THE 24-HOUR CHALLENGE Here is your challenge. For the next 24 hours: No phone for the first 30 minutes after waking. No social media until you've completed something productive. Turn off unnecessary notifications. No phone while eating. Take one walk without headphones. Do one difficult thing you've been avoiding. No double-screening. If you're watching TV, you're not also scrolling. Put your phone outside your bedroom tonight. Let yourself experience boredom. Notice every time you instinctively reach for stimulation. Don't judge yourself. Observe yourself. Because awareness is the beginning of changing anything. THEN TRY SEVEN DAYS Now let's level it up. For seven days: Reduce your biggest cheap-dopamine behavior dramatically. You don't need to eliminate all pleasure. In fact, please don't. Go to dinner. Laugh. Drink your coffee. Listen to music. Hang with friends. Enjoy your life. This isn't punishment. We're trying to reclaim our ability to enjoy NORMAL things. That's the goal. Less artificial stimulation. More real life. ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION Before you reach for something, ask: Am I choosing this, or am I escaping something? That question can completely change things. Why am I opening Instagram? Because I intentionally decided to spend 15 minutes enjoying it? Fine. Or because this task got difficult? Why am I eating this? Because I'm hungry and I want it? Fine. Or because I'm uncomfortable? Why am I drinking? Because I'm celebrating with friends? Or because I can't tolerate sitting with how I feel? Why am I checking email for the 47th time? Because I'm waiting for something important? Or because working on the project in front of me is harder? That pause between impulse and behavior… That's where your power is. CHEAP DOPAMINE VS EARNED DOPAMINE This is the easiest way I can summarize the episode. Cheap dopamine: Consume. Scroll. Click. Watch. Refresh. Snack. Buy. Escape. Earned dopamine: Build. Train. Create. Learn. Connect. Explore. Compete. Finish. Accomplish. The first category isn't evil. But if the balance of your life is overwhelmingly consumption… Don't be surprised when your motivation disappears. Shift the ratio. More creating. Less consuming. More doing. Less watching. More participating. Less observing. More real life. Less digital life. WE NEED ANTICIPATION BACK I think anticipation is disappearing. When everything is immediately available… There's nothing to look forward to. And looking forward to something is part of the fun. Plan the trip. Wait for Friday night. Save the amazing dessert for dinner. Don't buy everything the second you want it. Put the concert on the calendar. Build toward the race. Earn the reward. Delay things intentionally sometimes. The waiting isn't ruining the experience. The waiting IS part of the experience. YOUR LIFE SHOULD NOT NEED CONSTANT ENTERTAINMENT This might be the line I want you to remember. You should not need to be entertained every minute in order to enjoy your life. Your kids shouldn't either. We need boring car rides. We need afternoons with nothing scheduled. We need conversations without phones. We need walks. We need staring out the freaking window. We need thinking. We need daydreaming. We need opportunities for our brains to say: "Okay… what should we do?" Creativity often appears after the stimulation disappears. THE GOAL IS NOT LOWER DOPAMINE This is important. We're not trying to crush dopamine. We're not trying to become emotionless. We're not trying to avoid things that make us feel amazing. We're trying to protect our ability to feel amazing. That's different. We want the vacation to feel incredible. The concert. The accomplishment. The amazing dinner. The business win. The race. The adventure. The hug. The goal. The experience. We just don't need to manufacture an artificial mini-version of that feeling 800 times between breakfast and lunch. Leave some room. Let your baseline exist without constantly smashing the stimulation button.   Here's what I think is so interesting about all of this. We have designed a world where almost everything that used to require effort can now be accessed instantly. And that sounds like freedom. But if we're not careful… Convenience becomes dependence. Entertainment becomes distraction. Pleasure becomes compulsion. And access becomes addiction. The answer isn't to reject modern life. I'm certainly not giving up my phone. I'm not giving up coffee. I'm not giving up Instagram. I'm not giving up amazing food or concerts or trips or all the fun things. I want MORE life. That's actually the entire point. I don't want to spend my life looking down at a screen getting tiny rewards when there are enormous rewards available by actually participating in life. I want the dopamine from doing the workout I didn't want to do. Building the business. Taking the trip. Making the memory. Trying something new. Getting really freaking good at something. Having an amazing conversation. Being completely present with my kids. Creating something I'm proud of. Doing something hard. That's the dopamine I want more of. And maybe the simplest takeaway from this whole episode is this: Stop making pleasure so easy and effort so optional. Let yourself work for things. Let yourself wait for things. Let yourself be bored. Let yourself struggle. Let yourself anticipate. Let yourself earn some of the really good feelings. Because when we stop trying to make every moment maximally stimulating… Something really cool happens. Normal life starts becoming awesome again. And that is how to be awesome at resetting your dopamine.

Toying with better sex can also help break routines, spark curiosity, and create new opportunities for pleasure and connection. In this episode, we'll explore five provocative talking points: Why Toys Can Make Sex Better Toys, Communication & Consent When One Partner Isn't Into Toys Solo Pleasure Meets Partnered Sex From Routine to Adventure 5 Key Takeaways Sex toys can be tools for self-exploration. Learning what you enjoy can make it easier to communicate your preferences and desires with a partner. Adding toys can create more pleasure, connection, and intimacy. Curiosity and play can help move sex beyond routines that have become predictable or stagnant. Consent and communication are essential. Regardless of how long you have been together, introducing or using a toy requires conversation and consent. Choose what works for your body—not what is popular. Different bodies enjoy different types and levels of stimulation, so the most talked-about toy may not be the right one for you. Solo pleasure can become part of partnered pleasure. Exploring a toy yourself and then showing your partner what works can open communication and create new opportunities for play together.

    The second half of the twentieth century was marked by an extreme increase in America's prison population, from roughly 250,000 inmates in 1940 to well over two million by 2008. At the same time, American readers were devouring mysteries, thrillers, detective novels, police procedurals, and other forms of crime fiction. In this episode, Jacke talks to Theodore Martin about his book, American Literature's War on Crime: Novels and the Hidden History of Mass Incarceration, which explores the connection between crime novels and the making of mass imprisonment in America.

    In a world that often seems to be chaotically out of control, in a world of an endless cacophony of competing  voices, in a world that encourages us to do whatever we want, in a world that relentlessly encourages us to pursue our own interests and desires, how can we possibly even begin to "live well"? What does that mean? Is it pursuing personal peace and affluence? The perfect job? The perfect spouse? The right college? The right neighborhood? Our guest this week on the Profile, Dr. Alan Noble of Oklahoma Baptist University, has written a helpful little guide that answers these and other questions about what it means for Christians to live well. This is not a self-help book or a name-it-and-claim-it prosperity treatise, but an invitation to meditate upon and pursue the ancient virtues. Noble does not advocate that we are earning God's favor by pursuing the virtues. Rather, because we are made righteous in Christ, we have the freedom in Christ to pursue patience, wisdom, charity, love, courage, and resoluteness. The pursuit of virtue is not dry religious legalism, but an adventure, accomplished by and through the Holy Spirit. Come and see!From AlanNoble.comAlan Noble is Assistant Professor of English at Oklahoma Baptist University. Alan launched the group Public Faith with Michael Wear to offer an alternative evangelical political voice. He also joined The AND Campaign as an advisor, were he served for a number of years. Alan has written articles for Christian publications such as Modern Reformation, InTouch Magazine, and Christianity Today and for secular publications like VOX, Buzzfeed, and The Atlantic. He has been interviewed, quoted, or cited in The New York Times, The Washington Post, MTV News, MSNBC, The Guardian, Buzzfeed, Politico, Village Voice, Yahoo! News, ThinkProgress, The Blaze, WORLD Magazine, and Slate. And he has spoken at colleges, organizations, churches, and youth groups on a range of topics related to the church and culture. In 2023, Alan became a “fellow” at the Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics. Free Watchman Profile articles.

You can read the play here and the story here. The show notes will be available at https://bit.ly/DOD77sn (for all show notes, just replace ‘77' with the episode number in question). The episode will shortly be posted to our YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@doingsofdoyle. Please like and subscribe. Synopsis of the short story Following his departure from Baker Street, Dr Watson, although busy with his medical practice, decides to call upon his old friend, Sherlock Holmes. Holmes's page, Billy, informs the doctor that the over-worked detective is actually asleep in his room, although curiously there is a life-size wax dummy of his old friend positioned by the sitting room window. In the midst of this odd scenario, Holmes appears to explain that he is investigating a baffling and perilous case involving the disappearance of one of the crown jewels, the famed Mazarin stone. At this point, Holmes's principal suspect, Count Negretto Silvius, calls at Baker Street and Watson is hastily dispatched to fetch Inspector Youghal from Scotland Yard. In the meantime, Holmes proposes to detain the elegant and dangerous jewel thief himself… Next time on Doings of Doyle… We begin our exploration of Conan Doyle's breakthrough novel, Micah Clarke.

Jill's Trivia Quiz Jill led a trivia segment focused on 1970s television shows, including questions about The Mary Tyler Moore Show and news personalities. Keith and Terry participated in a trivia game testing their knowledge of TV shows and movies. They answered questions about shows like Family, and Happy Days, with Keith correctly identifying James Buchanan High School from Welcome Back, Kotter and Ghost Stories as the original title of NBC’s Circle of Fear.

    As a parent, mentor, or simply someone who cares about helping others grow, it's easy to wonder what truly shapes a person's future.In this episode, I sit down with Margot Machol Bisnow, author of Raising an Entrepreneur, to talk about what she learned after interviewing entrepreneurs from all walks of life. Her biggest takeaway? Success isn't about perfect grades or following a traditional path. It's about having someone who believes in you, encourages your passions, and helps you learn from failure.What I loved most about this conversation is that it isn't really about raising entrepreneurs. It's about raising people who are confident enough to trust themselves, resilient enough to adapt when life doesn't go as planned, and courageous enough to pursue what truly lights them up. We also explore how parents can shift from trying to create the "perfect" path to helping their children discover their own. Margot shares why embracing mistakes, finding meaningful mentors, and creating a supportive family environment can have a lasting impact long into adulthood. Whether you're raising children or reflecting on your own journey, I hope this conversation reminds you that sometimes the greatest gift we can give someone is the confidence to become who they were meant to be.In this episode, we discuss:Why believing in your child matters more than having all the answersHow passion helps build confidence and resilienceWhy failure is an important part of growthThe role mentors and supportive families play in a child's futureHow to encourage children to follow their own path with purposeConnect with Margot:Website: https://raisinganentrepreneur.com/Order Raising an Entrepreneur: https://a.co/d/0dGoUnnuInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/margotbisnow/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/margot-machol-bisnow-a29550b5/Adventure on!Send us Fan Mail Support the show✨ Join the Spiritual Horse Seeker Summit

    At the time of Washington Irving's death, he was the most famous and widely praised American writer of his or any other era. But his reputation soon dwindled, and today he's known primarily as the author of just two stories ("The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle"), while his groundbreaking works of history, biography, and essays are barely known. In this episode, Jacke talks to essayist Phillip Lopate about his book A Washington Irving Sketch Book: Reflections on an American Writer, in which Lopate pays tribute to the life and works of a nineteenth-century kindred spirit.
