Does thinking about 2026 make you feel excited… or a little anxious? Then let's talk about Fear Setting.If you're walking into the new year with big dreams and big doubts, you're in good company. In this episode, I share a powerful mental and emotional exercise called fear setting, popularized by author and entrepreneur Tim Ferriss, that has helped me face my fears with more clarity and confidence.Unlike goal setting, fear setting asks you to define exactly what you're afraid of, explore ways to reduce or prevent those fears, and consider how you'd recover if the worst did happen. It sounds intense, but it's a surprisingly freeing process that can help you move forward instead of staying stuck.I walk you through the three key parts of fear setting using a personal example — my journey to cotinue building Podground as we move into the new year. This simple exercise helped me name what I was afraid of (from rejection to the fear of success), and then take small, intentional steps forward with faith and focus.Whether you're considering a job change, a creative project, or just feel pulled toward something new — this episode will help you get clear on what's stopping you, and why it doesn't have to.This episode is for you if:You want to do something big or new in 2026 but feel afraidYou feel overwhelmed by your own expectationsYou've been stuck in overthinking and are ready for clarityYou want a faith-based approach to bold, wise decision-making What You'll Learn:What fear setting is, and how Tim Ferriss used it to make bold life decisionsA 3-part fear setting framework: Define, Prevent, and RepairHow to consider both the benefits of action and the cost of inactionA real-life example of how I used fear setting to step into growthA reminder that God can be trusted with your future and your fearsScripture Mentioned: Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

Episode Description:This second installment of “From the Archive” returns to James's early, unfiltered conversation with Tim Ferriss. They unpack how to market by creating newsworthy moments (including a frigid book-launch fiasco turned lesson), how to learn anything using Tim's DISS framework (Deconstruction, Selection, Sequencing, Stakes), and why “possibility is negotiable” when you seek outliers and test assumptions. Tim explains fear-setting, slow-play networking that leads to real mentors, and the origin story of BrainQUICKEN → BodyQuick, including direct-response tactics, offline ads, and early UFC sponsorships. The through-line: run small experiments, protect your best energy, and stack skills to raise your odds.What You'll Learn:How to engineer “newsworthy” launches and recover from execution misses without losing momentum.The DISS method for rapid learning (Deconstruction, Selection, Sequencing, Stakes) you can apply to languages, poker, orFear-setting, not goal-setting: define worst-case scenarios, prevention steps, and recovery plans to make bolder moves.Mentors without asking “be my mentor”: add value first, build loose ties, and let a few relationships compound.From side-hustle to exit: repositioning, channel selection (including print/radio), and why out-of-fashion inventory can be a bargain.Timestamped Chapters:[02:20] A launch-day disaster in 10° weather—and the customer-recovery playbook.[05:00] “Possibility is negotiable” vs. the default “probable” path.[06:57] Finding mentors by learning before earning: the slow-play relationship strategy.[10:00] Optionality: the angel-investing analogy for career and mentors.[14:00] The DISS framework for learning anything.[18:50] Hunt the outliers: why “who shouldn't be good at this—but is?” unlocks technique.[24:30] Fear-setting: risk = likelihood of an irreversible negative outcome.[26:20] Micro-experiments to de-risk big transitions.[27:24] Secret origin: BrainQUICKEN → BodyQuick; from nootropics to non-stimulant pre-workout.[31:55] Repositioning, targeted niches, and early UFC placements.[33:13] Don't ignore “old” channels: print and radio as arbitrage.[33:55] Burnout, one-way ticket to London, and systems that led to a sale.[40:36] Title testing (and red herrings) in publishing.[46:16] The 4-Hour Workweek started by accident [52:14] Publishing myths: how “impossible” ideas become inevitable [01:07:58] TV vs. podcasting: control, constraints, and creative freedom [01:31:34] Investing: bet on people (the beer test + mall test) Additional Resources:Tim Ferriss — official site/podcast hub: tim.blog • The Tim Ferriss ShowThe 4-Hour Workweek (Expanded & Updated): Amazon listingThe 4-Hour Body — official site: fourhourbody.comThe 4-Hour Chef — official site: fourhourchef.comThe 4-Hour Workweek — official site: fourhourworkweek.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Wanna crank up your metabolism naturally?Here's your cheat sheet.... part 3.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to Ken Blackman who discusses the dynamics of breakups, highlighting that anxiously attached individuals often initiate them. Blackman advocates for building relationships that provide mutual support, especially during challenging times, to foster long-term happiness and health. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/ken-blackman    Highlights from today's episode include:  Ken explains Chemistry vs. intimacy: A great relationship needs both spark and the safety to be fully yourself, not constantly "protecting the vibe." Ken explains Healthy breakup: A loving split sounds like "I see you, I get what you need, it's valid—but it's outside my range," with mutual respect, grief, and relief. Manon explains Real freedom: What feels most free is not many partners, but being completely yourself—"weirdness" and all—with one person who truly gets you.   ABOUT KEN BLACKMAN: A former Apple engineer turned relationship mindset coach and intimacy educator, Ken Blackman is currently celebrating his 25th year helping couples co-create a thriving, fulfilling life partnership and a gourmet love life. His work has garnered mentions in Business Insider, Playboy, Tim Ferriss's 4-Hour series, Cosmopolitan, and elsewhere. He's a regular featured contributor to The Good Men Project, Better Humans, and his own Medium publication, The Craft of Intimate Coupledom. Core purpose/passion: I think my superpower as a relationship coach is to be a translator and help them see and understand each other. I tend to listen and ask, listen and ask, until I feel like I see the world through one partner's eyes. Then I do the same with the other partner, listen and ask until I see the world through their eyes. Then I help them see each other. Sometimes translation; is just saying to one partner exactly what I heard the other say, but as though I'm speaking to the most important, honorable person in the world, whom I have the highest regard for. –  Facebook |  Instagram |  Medium  |  Website |  BlueSky | Threads    ABOUT MANON BOLLIGER, RBHT, FCAH: As a retired Naturopath 1992-2021, I saw an average of 150 patients per week and have helped people ranging from rural farmers in Nova Scotia to stressed out CEOs in Toronto to tri-athletes here in Vancouver.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: www.lewishowes.com/170Tim Ferriss doesn't pretend he's easy to work with. He's an introvert who can “perform” like an extrovert on stage, but big groups drain him dry. And when things go sideways with people who think totally differently, his solution isn't some mystical personality hack. It's brutally practical: set expectations early, agree on goals and methods, decide what someone can own without checking in, and measure progress with real numbers.Then he drops the kind of advice that can save your relationships and your blood pressure: when you're angry, don't send the email. Let it sit. If it's still true tomorrow, you can say it tomorrow. And when someone messes up, assume overwhelm or disorganization before you assume betrayal. That one tiny assumption change flips the tone of everything you read, everything you say, and what kind of leader (or partner) you become.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode isn't about big launches, viral moments, or overnight success.It's about the quiet work. The thinking. The testing. The pulling back. The sitting with doubt instead of bulldozing through it.In the first episode of 2026, Michelle reflects honestly on the year just gone — what worked, what didn't, and what only made sense once she stopped pushing and actually paid attention.From stepping back over Christmas to avoid burnout, to questioning growth, sponsorship, social media, and the direction of the brand, this is a grounded look at what it really takes to build something that lasts.No reinvention narrative.No “new year, new me”.Just clarity earned the hard way.In this episode, Michelle talks about:Why not publishing over Christmas was a deliberate decision — not a failureHow being busy isn't the same as being alignedWhat last year revealed about presence, attention, and nervous system burnoutThe difference between testing ideas and chasing validationWhy community and collaboration matter more than doing everything aloneLosing momentum — and why that doesn't mean you're lostThe realities of running an unfunded podcast and staying values-ledRethinking sponsorship, growth, and keeping the show independentThe thinking behind Dare Club and the Thursday daresWhy small, intentional challenges beat dramatic life overhaulsLiving in the “dip” without panicking or quittingBooks, ideas & references mentioned:Lessons inspired by Tim Ferriss and extracting meaning from lived experienceStoic thinking via Ryan Holiday and The Obstacle Is the WayReflections on ADHD from Scattered MindsThe Netflix documentary Stutz and practical mental toolsPurpose, alignment, and slowing the pace instead of forcing progressWhy this episode matters:If you're heading into 2026 feeling:unsure but not brokentired of loud advicequietly questioning the direction you're headingThis episode is for you.Because building a life isn't about constant forward motion. Sometimes it's about stopping long enough to hear yourself think.What's next:Guest episodes return next weekDare Club and weekly dares resume shortlyMore intentional challenges, clearer direction, less noiseIf you want to support the show, leave a review, share the episode with someone who's in the messy middle, or join Dare Club for the weekly challenges.And as always — thanks for listening.Join Dare club https://stan.store/shewhodareswinsShop: www.shewhodareswins.comSupport the show https://www.patreon.com/c/shewhodareswins Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Travis and his producer Eric use a Rick Ross green-room story and a tongue‑in‑cheek “every day I'm hustlin'” intro to jump into a real conversation about what healthy hustle actually looks like. They unpack how perspectives on work, grind, and balance shift once you are a parent, a provider, and no longer a 20‑year‑old with endless time and energy.​ On this episode we talk about: How a backstage compliment from Rick Ross turned into a personal reminder to “perform like a pro” in every room Why early‑stage entrepreneurship often requires a white‑knuckle season of extreme hustle—and why you have to earn your way into a lighter schedule The danger of copying advice from ultra-successful people (like Tim Ferriss) who are already financially set, while you are still in build mode The difference between productive hustle and toxic “grind culture” that glorifies long hours without meaningful results How clarity of the life you want, plus alignment with work you actually care about, makes long hours more sustainable and less miserable Top 3 Takeaways Hustle should come in intentional phases: there are seasons where 80–100‑hour weeks make sense to buy back decades of future freedom, but you have to know what you are working toward and when to dial it back. Outworking everyone only matters if you are working on the right things; 14‑hour days of low‑impact tasks will wreck your health without moving your business forward. You are not owed your dream life just for existing—own your inputs, stop blaming external factors, and be unapologetic about the work required to build the outcomes you want. Notable Quotes “You have to earn the right to be able to take those breaks in life.” “Extremity expands capacity.” “You are not owed your dream life just because you're born.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

This time around, we have an experimental format, featuring the first episode of a brand-new podcast launching next week, Drug Story. I rarely feature episodes from other shows, but I think this one is well worth your time. It changed how I think about allergies, especially as someone who carries an EpiPen and has wondered: why on earth have food allergies seemed to skyrocket in the last few decades?Drug Story is a podcast that tells the story of the disease business, one drug at a time. Each episode explores one disease and one drug, and it kicks off with EpiPen and food allergies. A quick teaser: What if I told you that a well-meaning medical recommendation may have caused millions of kids to develop food allergies?Make sure to subscribe to Drug Story on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. You can also simply go to DrugStory.co and learn more.The host is Thomas Goetz. He is a senior impact fellow at the University of California Berkeley School of Public Health, and much earlier, Thomas was the executive editor at WIRED, which he led to a dozen National Magazine Awards from 2001 to 2013. His writing has been repeatedly selected for the Best American Science Writing and Best Technology Writing anthologies.P.S. To help you kick off 2026, I recommend checking out Henry Shukman, a past podcast guest and one of the few in the world authorized to teach Sanbo Zen. Henry's app, The Way, has changed my life.

A year ago I exposed the criminal past of the founder of AG1. Now we're going to talk about the science.Check out Alexis Léveillé's instagram post:https://www.instagram.com/p/DJ7SWK6vmyU/?img_index=1And subscribe to  @nobullshitphysio  https://www.instagram.com/nobullshitphysio/Athletic Greens is a green supplement powder that claims to meet “all your nutritional needs” with a daily $3 slurry of vitamins and adaptogenic buzzwords. If you've listened to just about any health-forward podcast in the last ten years, you've no doubt heard of it. And, if you've been following this channel for a while you probably also know that last year I exposed the criminal past of the founder who founded the company after we fled New Zealand for running a real estate scam. A few months after that report came out Chris Ashenden stepped down from his role as CEO. I also heard through the grapevine that they lost $45 million in subscription revenue because of my report.Even so, AG1 continues to be one of the most prominent financial backers of grifty podcasters — from Andrew Huberman and Peter Attia to Rich Roll and Tim Ferris. They offer lucrative sponsorship opportunities to anyone who is willing to repeat their health claims with a straight face.Part of their pitch is that unlike other supplement powders, they have actual science backing them up. While my earlier report posited the idea that you can judge the character of a company by the character of its founder, many people wrote to me that all they really cared about was whether or not AG1 actually works. They wanted to hear the science.Last week Alexis Maxence Léveillé (who goes by NoBullshitPhysio in Instagram) reached out to me saying that he had a scoop about AG1's scientific integrity and asked me to collaborate. We have spent the last few days combing through scientific studies, interviewing scientists and talking with representatives over at AG1.And, I have to say, we sort of found a bombshell hidden in plain sight in their academic research.In the video above we examine AG1's claims up close and report that they knowingly use an active placebo called maltodextrin as the baseline to determine if AG1 actually works. It's true that many microbiome studies also have used maltodextrin in the past, research that they cite from 2022 proves that maltodextrin actually harms gut health. While they could have simply used inert water as a baseline, they specifically chose to use a placebo that would inherently make their supplement line look better.Even with their home-team advantage, the only published study on humans they have in their lineup actually showed no substantial difference between maltodextrin and AG1. In other words: despite claiming great things on their website, it was pretty much a wash.But wait, it gets even weirder.Once I reached out to AG1's PR team and their entire slate of scientists, the research page began to morph in real time. They started posting about upcoming publications that haven't been peer reviewed or published, and vastly expanded their section on research ethics.There's a lot more to the story, but I don't want to ruin your enjoyment of the video I have posted above.Get Early Access on Substackhttps://sgcarney.substack.com/

What if worry stopped being a wall and became an action signal?  Today we take on the everyday fears that stall big goals and break them down using a simple, repeatable framework that turns anxiety into momentum. Drawing from coaching work and the fear-setting method popularized by Tim Ferriss, we show how to move from vague dread to concrete action without pretending fear disappears.  You'll leave with a t3-step tool you can use today: define the fear, prevent what you can, repair when needed. Apply it to outreach anxiety, high-stakes presentations, career shifts, or relocations. When the worry voice shows up, you'll have a script to answer it and a system to keep moving.  If this helped, share it with someone who's stuck on the edge of a decision, and subscribe to get more practical frameworks for growth. Your next brave step is one question away: what's the worst that can happen?    Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive, Leadership and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant
