Reflecting on his journey of coming out later in life while raising children and navigating a heterosexual marriage, Wayne shares the nuances of bisexuality, the pain of having his truth oversimplified, and the liberation found in embracing his queerness. We explore how shame has shaped—and ultimately evolved—his story, what it means to not “queer correctly,” and how he's reclaimed his narrative outside the confines of traditional queer tropes.

From best-selling biographer Max Boot comes this revelatory portrait, a decade in the making, of the actor-turned-politician whose telegenic leadership ushered in a transformative conservative era in American politics. Despite his fame as a Hollywood star and television host, Reagan remained a man of profound contradictions, even to those closest to him. Never resorting to either hagiography or hit job, REAGAN charts his epic journey from Depression-era America to “Morning in America.” Providing fresh insight into “trickle-down economics,” the Cold War's end, the Iran-Contra affair, and so much more, this definitive biography is as compelling a presidential biography as any in recent decades. Max Boot, historian and foreign-policy analyst, is a senior fellow for national security studies at the Council on Foreign Relations and a columnist for the Washington Post. His New York Times bestseller, The Road Not Taken: Edward Lansdale and the American Tragedy in Vietnam, was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Biography. #maxboot #ronaldreagan

Robert Cialdini, known as the Godfather of Influence, is a professor emeritus at Arizona State University. His New York Times bestselling books Influence and Pre-Suasion have sold more than 7 million copies in 44 different languages. Robert is known globally as the foundational expert in the science of influence, and his Principles of Persuasion are used by some of the world's most notable people. For example, Robert worked for both the Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton presidential campaigns. In this episode we discuss the following: If you do a favor for someone you work with, don't say, “No problem.” Rather, say “It's what we do for one another here.” To increase influence with people you don't work with say, "I know that if the situation were reversed, you'd do the same thing.” When you go into a situation with unfamiliar people, be generous with them. They will then like you and be more generous with you. Don't ask, “Who can most help me here?” Rather ask “Whom can I most help here?” And after you help them, you'll have an advocate. When we're generous with others, two levers of influence apply: liking and reciprocity. They will like us more and will want to return the favor.

Ramit is passionate about how people view their relationship with money and how it impacts romantic relationships. He has a Netflix series coming out this year, where he will take people on the journey to a wealth mindset and habits.   Passionate, focused, and purposefully unrealistic, Ramit Sethi wants people to dream big about money. He recently released a companion journal to his New York Times bestselling book titled I Will Teach You to Be Rich: The Journal. In this playbook, he teaches and encourages the participant to dream big and create a vision that can be activated, acted on, and materialized.    “ My money rules are positive. So remember, they're my rules. I get to create whatever I want. So I have 10 Money rules. Everybody can Google Ramit's 10 Money Rules..”  - Ramit Sethi   Key Takeaways:   Visioning Your Rich Life: Each of us has a unique vision of a prosperous life. Knowing yours, writing it out, and visualizing is a step toward financial freedom and success. Be specific in your creation and dream as BIG as you possibly can.   Debt and Financial Planning: Do not ignore your debt and just hope it goes away. Take the time to sit down and plan how to get out of debt. If it feels overwhelming, find support to help you map out a path to financial freedom.   Partnerships and Money: Understanding your romantic partner's beliefs about money are essential. Money problems or different belief systems can create unnecessary stress in relationships.    Your Relationship with Money: Many of us spend time working on having healthy relationships with people, ourselves, food, and work. Money often needs to be noticed. Carving out time to learn about how money works, your beliefs regarding money, and creating a plan for your financial abundance is important.  Go to https://hvmn.com/ and use the promo code: ‘Divine' to 20% off your next purchase of Keytone IQ Links:   I Will Teach You To Be Rich Website Ramit Sethi LinkedIn  Ramit Sethi Instagram

So, you think you're making good decisions, but are you really? And, what about the hidden scripts and noisy inputs that affect nearly every decision you make, without you being aware of any of it? How do we make better decisions?Today's guest can help. Daniel Kahneman is one of the most influential psychologists and thinkers in modern history, his ideas have literally changed the way we live, work, relate, see the world, make decisions, and build solutions, organizations, industries, societies, and lives. Best known for his remarkable work with Amos Tversky, which explores how we reason and make decisions, his research was, in no small way, seminal in the creation of the field of behavioral economics. He's been awarded the Nobel Prize, as well as the Presidential Medal of Freedom. His New York Times best-selling book, Thinking, Fast and Slow, has sold more than seven million copies worldwide. And his most recent book, Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment, explores how unrecognized, systemic influences affect our decisions in ways, both rational and not, that remain completely hidden to us and often lead to profound unfairness and inequality. We talk about key ideas from his research spanning more than 6 decades. But, we also dive deep into the life experiences that shaped him. Fascinatingly, Kahmeman's curiosity about humans and all our complexities was sparked as a young Jew living with his family in Nazi-occupied France during World War II, and running for years, before fleeing. His sometimes harrowing experiences triggered questions and curiosities that powerfully influenced what would become a lifelong devotion to understand why we do the things we do.We explore those early experiences, and he shares where some of the seeds were first planted that would later grow into the body of research and work that have changed the world. You can find Daniel at: Princeton University | The Nobel PrizeIf you LOVED this episode you'll also love the conversations we had with Charles Duhigg about how unknown influences and habit and ritual effect our behavior.Check out our offerings & partners: My New Book SparkedMy New Podcast SPARKED.

How to Make Behavior Change Stick | This episode is sponsored by Bioptimizers, Paleovalley, and Athletic GreensWe’ve all been there—changing an old habit or creating a new one can be challenging. And we often incorporate our lack of success at habit change into part of our identity and feeling bad about ourselves. But when we use science to understand the secrets to lasting behavior change, it’s clear there are ways to overcome the struggle and get the results we want. One of those secrets is building off of small changes over time. I did this myself, by doing pushups while I waited for the shower to heat up I went from being able to do one to now doing 50! Today, I talk to Dr. BJ Fogg about the science of lasting behavior change and the success he’s seen in those who’ve used his system. Dr. Fogg is a behavior scientist with deep experience in innovation and teaching.

The 2020 election campaign season is fraught with unrelenting drama – who's infected now, hate-spewing, and the president's latest Tweetstorm – we lose track of the scale of what's really upon us. Beyond masks and death rates, the pandemic, the high court, the economy, democracy, fear of fascism, and all the rest there looms the Big One, our climate, and how the hammer of climate change will dramatically change our lives. Half of the American population will see a decline in their environment conditional.   People are already on the move, fleeing fires, rising seas, too many hurricanes, too much heat. In the decades in front of us, climate migration - vast movements of people driven by painful climate change - is on track to explode. Abrahm Lustgarten does soften the blow.

With eight Olympic medals (two of them gold), Apolo Ohno is America’s most decorated winter Olympian. He won his first major speed skating title (the US Championships) at the tender age of 14, after only six months of training. He continued on to a career that played a major role in establishing short-track speed-skating in the 2002, 2006, and 2010 Winter Games.    His New York Times best-selling memoir, Zero Regrets, tells the story of success, setbacks and what it takes to become one of the top athletes in the world. In this episode, Apolo and I go deep into the economic realities of becoming an Olympian. Due to the steep cost of coaching, training, equipment, and travel, many (perhaps most) athletes and their families go deep into debt in pursuit of a spot on the national team. And even for the few who make it, there is little preparation for post-Games remuneration and little preparation for a job “in the real world."   In his post-skating career, Apolo has worked as a sports analyst for NBC, a global ambassador for the Olympics, and a winner of ABC’s hit show, Dancing with the Stars. He finished the 2014 Ironman World Championship Triathlon in less than ten hours. Apolo now spends much of his time speaking to business and nonprofit leaders around the globe. He helps leaders develop high-performance mindset to break through and do their best work.    His next book Hard Pivot tells the story of reinvention and tackling new challenges while maintaining his iconic positive attitude and unmatched energy.  Thank you to Apolo’s assistant, Lucy Chen for making this happen!   To learn more or book Apolo to speak, visit  https://www.apoloohno.com/   Here’s how you pronounce “infinitesimal.”   Please take a second to rate and review Crazy Money here.

At the age of 24, U.S. Army Ranger Sean Parnell was named commander of a forty-man elite infantry platoon, known as the Outlaws, and was tasked with rooting out Pakistan-based insurgents along Afghanistan's eastern frontier. His New York Times bestselling memoir Outlaw Platoon, tells how close combat reshaped the lives of Parnell and his men, and how the love and faith they found in one another kept them alive. Parnell captured a story of brotherhood and painted an intense searing portrait of war that has rarely been so acutely and realistically captured. Now Parnell brings his boots-on-the-ground experience to ONE TRUE PATRIOT (William Morrow, on sale 9/3). With Outlaw Platoon, Parnell gave readers a vivid, action-packed true story of enormous sacrifice and bravery that landed readers in the heat and smoke of combat. He brings that same heart and passion to One True Patriot which features special operator Eric Steele-an Alpha-an elite soldier under the direct command of the president of the United States. When Steele and his mother are ambushed at his home, she lands in the ICU after the brutal attack. While on the hunt for the men who put his mother in a coma, Steele discovers he's become entangled in a far more sinister plan-one that could lead all the way back to his father's clandestine days in the military. A terrorist named Zakayev has escaped the Russian prison and has joined forces with Hassan Sitta, a man who has a bomb planted in the Middle East.

Robert Cialdini, PhD is counted among the greatest psychological researchers alive today and his published works have been cited thousands of times. His New York Times best-selling book, Influence, from 1984, is considered a classic for classroom and corporate use alike. He is an ardent author and a passionate professor, and his work has impacted millions. In short, Bob Cialdini has shaped the landscape of how sales and marketing workers do their jobs and how researchers frame their studies. In this episode of Behavioral Grooves, Bob took a few minutes to discuss some of his most underappreciated research and some of the new things he’s working on. We began with a study that used littering as a way to predict, before the polls closed, the outcome of an election by watching how voters treated candidate fliers left on their cars. One of the very elegant aspects of this study was that it required no surveys – merely the observation of behaviors in the parking lots of the polling places. The question the researchers sought to answer was this: How do voters treat the fliers of candidates they favor and of those they oppose? More specifically, do voters keep fliers from candidates they like and litter with the fliers of candidates they dislike?   Then, our conversation moved to a line of research that he’d investigated for over a decade: the motivations for pro-social behavior, such as giving to those in need. Bob reminds us that there are many motivators at play when one person helps out another, as when a passerby gives money to some asking for money on the street, but there is one motivator that stands out: egoism. Many of us believe that being charitable is an obligation or is driven by guilt, and while that is true to some degree, Bob’s collective research over more than a dozen years revealed that egoism, that selfish desire to feel good about ourselves, is at the heart of helping others. Then we went a step farther. Bob noted that helping others is more likely to occur when the person in need appears to be in-group or in-tribe. In other words, we’re more likely to be charitable if it appears the person asking for help is “like me.” The primary way we decide if someone is like us is to look at how they’re dressed. What kind of clothes are they wearing? In his studies, Bob found that soccer (football) fans were more likely to assist someone on the street if they were wearing the jersey of their favorite team. It’s unnerving to think that the clothes you wear could determine whether someone helps you or not. In our grooving session, Kurt and Tim discussed the impact of social identity and self-identity. We discussed articles by Michael Hogg and Roy Baumeister. We brought in books by Harvard Professor Teresa Amabile and Dan Levitan’s great treatise on the neurological effects of music. And on music, we chatted about how music makes us feel and we cited Semisonic’s “Closing Time” and Beethoven’s 5th Symphony as examples. Lastly, Bob is interested in hearing from YOU! He’d like listeners to send reports on how the principles of influence are being used in the real world to be included in his next book. If you’d like to be considered for his next work, please send your stories to info@influenceatwork.com We hope you enjoy our discussion with Bob Cialdini. https://behavioralgrooves.podbean.com/ Sponsor: The Creative Group, Inc. This episode is brought to you by Creative Group Inc.  Kurt and Tim have worked with CGI and have found that their process of co-creation of incentive program provides clients with more robust solutions.  Because their incentive and employee engagement programs are co-created, they reflect the truest aspects of the client’s organization and culture. CGI shares our belief that incentives and rewards shouldn’t be used to create brand mercenaries – but instead, should be about creating brand missionaries.  Check them out at https://www.creativegroupinc.com/.

Daniel J. Siegel received his medical degree from Harvard University and completed his postgraduate medical education at UCLA with training in pediatrics and child, adolescent and adult psychiatry. He served as a National Institute of Mental Health Research Fellow at UCLA, studying family interactions with an emphasis on how attachment experiences influence emotions, behavior, autobiographical memory and narrative. Dr. Siegel is a clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine and the founding co-director of the Mindful Awareness Research Center at UCLA. An award-winning educator, he is a Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and recipient of several honorary fellowships. Dr. Siegel is also the Executive Director of the Mindsight Institute, an educational organization, which offers online learning and in-person seminars that focus on how the development of mindsight in individuals, families and communities can be enhanced by examining the interface of human relationships and basic biological processes. His psychotherapy practice includes children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. He serves as the Medical Director of the LifeSpan Learning Institute and on the Advisory Board of the Blue School in New York City, which has built its curriculum around Dr. Siegel’s Mindsight approach. Dr. Siegel has published extensively for the professional audience. He is the author of numerous articles, chapters, and the internationally acclaimed text, The Developing Mind: How Relationships and the Brain Interact to Shape Who We Are (2nd. Ed., Guilford, 2012). This book introduces the field of interpersonal neurobiology, and has been utilized by a number of clinical and research organizations worldwide. Dr. Siegel serves as the Founding Editor for the Norton Professional Series on Interpersonal Neurobiology which contains over sixty textbooks. The Mindful Brain: Reflection and Attunement in the Cultivation of Well-Being (Norton, 2007) explores the nature of mindful awareness as a process that harnesses the social circuitry of the brain as it promotes mental, physical, and relational health. The Mindful Therapist: A Clinician's Guide to Mindsight and Neural Integration (Norton, 2010), explores the application of focusing techniques for the clinician’s own development, as well as their clients' development of mindsight and neural integration. Pocket Guide to Interpersonal Neurobiology: An Integrative Handbook of the Mind (Norton, 2012), explores how to apply the interpersonal neurobiology approach to developing a healthy mind, an integrated brain, and empathic relationships. The New York Times bestseller Mind: A Journey to the Heart of Being Human (Norton, 2016) offers a deep exploration of our mental lives as they emerge from the body and our relations to each other and the world around us. His New York Times bestseller Aware: The Science and Practice of Presence (Tarcher/Perigee, 2018) provides practical instruction for mastering the Wheel of Awareness, a life-changing tool for cultivating more focus, presence, and peace in one's day-to-day life. Dr. Siegel's publications for professionals and the public have been translated into over 40 forty languages. Dr. Siegel’s book, Mindsight: The New Science of Personal Transformation (Bantam, 2010), offers the general reader an in-depth exploration of the power of the mind to integrate the brain and promote well-being. He has written five parenting books, including the three New York Times bestsellers Brainstorm: The Power and Purpose of the Teenage Brain (Tarcher/Penguin, 2014); The Whole-Brain Child: 12 Revolutionary Strategies to Nurture Your Child's Developing Mind (Random House, 2011) and No-Drama Discipline: The Whole-Brain Way to Calm the Chaos and Nurture Your Child's Developing Mind (Bantam, 2014), both with Tina Payne Bryson, Ph.D., The Yes Brain: How to Cultivate Courage, Curiosity, and Resilience in Your Child (Bantam, 2018) also with Tina Payne Bryson, Ph.D., and Parenting from the Inside Out: How a Deeper Self-Understanding Can Help You Raise Children Who Thrive (Tarcher/Penguin, 2003) with Mary Hartzell, M.Ed. Dr. Siegel's unique ability to make complicated scientific concepts exciting and accessible has led him to be invited to address diverse local, national and international groups including mental health professionals, neuroscientists, corporate leaders, educators, parents, public administrators, healthcare providers, policy-makers, mediators, judges, and clergy. He has lectured for the King of Thailand, Pope John Paul II, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Google University, and London's Royal Society of Arts (RSA).

The first was that when I entered Sarah Lawrence College, I was immediately uncomfortable. I hoped and was excited about joining a community that was deeply engaged in scholarship and took the search for truth very seriously. And by my second day, I realized we were not necessarily looking for truth in the most open-minded sense. People had lenses they brought to the table. This is the faculty, and they expected you to come in with such a lens. I came in without a particularly strong lens. I am an empirical social scientist. I try to operationalize social questions, and answer these questions.” “One of the things that my empirics have shown that while faculty may have taken a hard left, college freshmen haven’t. College freshmen are a little left of center, the average American is a little right of center…I would say that many of these students are fairly open minded. Many of them want these ideas. Many of them want to argue with you which is sometimes a lot of work to handle, but also a joy.”

His New York Times bestselling book The Paleo Manifesto rocketed the Paleo diet into popularity, and he continues to pursue health with a passion. On any given day you might find John Durant running barefoot through Central Park, experimenting with intermittent fasting, or doing a polar bear swim in the Atlantic. Now a sought-after health expert, he’s been featured by The New York Times, The Atlantic and appeared on The Colbert Report and NPR. John’s portfolio includes some of my favorite companies, where he works behind the scenes to make them successful: Thrive Market, Exo, AO Biome, and Kettle and Fire just to name a few. Let’s find out the inside scoop on how companies, big and small, play a part in our health future. The Mighty Dollar … in Your Pocket I’ve been criticized before for sometimes supporting large companies that offer some—but not all—health-conscious products. And there is of course good reason to be wary. Huge corporations have a track record of often not having our best interests in mind. Still, when we spend our dollars on healthy products, these companies listen and respond. And the bigger the company that makes a change toward healthier products, the wider the impact. Even in the last few years, we’ve seen an exciting amount of change for the better. At least that’s what I think … and I do even more so after hearing John’s insider perspective on the health future and where we’re headed. Change the demand, and they will follow! We as consumers are in control!

People will do some pretty interesting things to look younger, feel younger, and to live longer - myself included. As we age, it's only natural that we want to look and feel our best. So it's easy to buy into the promise of eternal youth - whether it's a product, a treatment, or some magic elixir - and it can get downright confusing to separate fact from fiction. So, I'm thrilled to speak with journalist Bill Gifford. His New York Times bestselling book, Spring Chicken: Stay Young Forever (or Die Trying), is a fascinating read. Bill reveals why some people live to be 100 without even trying, how your fat tissue could be killing you, and how to heal your DNA back to a younger version of itself. To research the book, he talked to scientists as well as everyday body hackers who were working on discovering how to reverse the effects of aging.

Stew talks with Sam Polk, a former hedge fund trader. Polk came to the hard-won realization that he needed to leave that lifestyle and went on to found two organizations that bring healthy food to poor communities in Los Angeles: Everytable and Groceryships. His New York Times opinion piece “For the Love of Money” told this story and had a big impact. He then wrote a powerful book by the same title in which he chronicles his addiction to wealth, as he calls it, and his struggle to overcome it. Stew and Sam discuss discuss the evolution of Sam’s views and values as he moved from Wall Street to more meaningful work.
