Podcasts about life a guide

When was the last time you prioritized pleasure?   Not the quick dopamine hits from social media or Netflix binges but the kind that makes you feel alive, powerful, and deeply connected to yourself.   For many ambitious women, pleasure often falls to the bottom of our endless to-do lists.   In this week's episode, we dive deep with Dr. Jenn Kennedy, a board-certified sex therapist, to explore why pleasure is non-negotiable for high-achieving women and how understanding your pleasure makes you unstoppable in all areas of life.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.ambitious-ish.com/58

“Nothing is working. I can't find a job!”I was talking with an acquaintance about their job search strategy recently. They complained that nothing they had tried was working. They had written and shared articles on social media, but the engagement wasn't very good. They had searched for jobs but couldn't find what they were seeking. * I asked how many articles they had written. * They said, “Two.” * I then asked how long they had been searching for relevant job listings. * They said, “A week.”Okay, folks. I'm sorry, but sometimes, more effort and patience are required! We seem to have turned into an instant gratification nation. Ubiquitous internet access, fast smartphones, thousands of online services, and the rise of AI have made us all expect instant answers and results. But it doesn't work that way. Your easy access is everyone's easy access. Everyone is posting, sharing, commenting, and competing for attention. I've published over 1,000 posts/articles over the past eight years. I started writing on Medium in 2017 and launched my Substack newsletter in 2019. I slowly built a decent number of readers on both platforms, but only in the last three months did my subscriber numbers really grow! I have a lot of failings, but I do have some personality traits that help me. I'm very persistent and patient. I will keep grinding away at something for years and years. * I've been working out almost every day for the past 16 years, and it took at least 4 years of lifting weights 5 days/week before I started seeing decent results. * I've been building and running my businesses since 2010 (never returned to a job). * I've been writing something every single day for years and years and years. I'm stubborn, if nothing else. Perhaps there have been times I should have given up. I know there are times other people definitely would have given up because I've watched them do exactly that. When to be patientSometimes, you just need to be patient. Stop expecting instant success! * Networking takes time.* Building an engaged audience takes time. * Looking for a new job in a terrible market in a struggling economy takes time. If you've invested many years in your current career, you may need to be more patient. It can often take approximately one month for every year of experience to find a new job (e.g., a full year if you have 12 years of experience). Also, you may need to be patient if you have many commitments and change would disrupt them. For example, your family might depend on your income, and you don't want to take your kids out of their local schools, so you can't just quit your job or jump at a new opportunity that would require a move. If you have a job you don't love but the job market is terrible, you may need to be patient and ride it out. But you should still be looking around. Treat it as a validation exercise. * Are you being paid what you should be?* Are you at the level you should be?* Are you being given the opportunities you could be?* Is your manager more supportive and mentoring than what's available elsewhere? I guess my early career years are an example of being patient. I worked for almost 10 years before I got my big break and started landing promotions that moved me up the leadership ladder. When to pivotIf you feel you're spinning your wheels, not getting any real traction, or running out of time, you may need to pivot and change strategies. At some point, more patience won't help. Also, if you have already been impacted by a layoff or business failure, you may need to make a change to survive. The degree of change depends on your situation, how long you've been trying other options, and your desired outcome. How much you pivot your career depends on what's possible and what's necessary. * Small pivot - Find a new job with an employer in the same industry and vertical (this is what most people do). * Medium pivot - Find a job with an employer in the same industry but in a different vertical (e.g., ecommerce instead of gaming).* Large pivot - Find a job with an employer in a completely different industry (e.g., transportation instead of tech) or geography (e.g., a different country).* Massive pivot - Change professions entirely using your transferrable talents and skills (e.g., a good manager is a good manager in any business). Or build your own business! The size of your pivot depends on what you do for a living, how deeply your job or business has been impacted, and how serious you are about doing whatever it takes to survive and thrive in this economic downturn.➡️ I go into more detail about these pivots in the podcast audio.

But what if we've been approaching the problem entirely wrong? What if time management isn't about managing time at all, but rather about managing our brains?Time itself is merely a social construct—a way to organize our existence on this planet. The real challenge lies in how we think about time and the choices we make regarding its use. Oliver Burkeman's perspective in "4,000 Weeks" (the approximate lifespan of someone who lives to 80) offers a sobering reminder that our time is finite, forcing us to consider whether we're spending our limited weeks on what truly matters.The Eisenhower Time Matrix provides a practical framework for evaluating our activities through two crucial lenses: urgency and importance. While many of us excel at handling urgent and important matters (Quadrant 1), we often neglect important but not urgent activities (Quadrant 2) like strategic planning, relationship building, and health maintenance—until they become crises. Meanwhile, we waste countless hours on activities that are neither important nor urgent (Quadrant 4), or become addicted to other people's urgencies (Quadrant 3), mistaking busyness for productivity and importance.Perhaps most destructive is our tendency to multitask. Despite what many believe about their abilities, research consistently shows that multitasking damages our cognitive capital both short and long term. Instead, single-tasking with full presence—whether in work or with loved ones—proves far more effective. Techniques like the Pomodoro method can help train our brains to focus intently for short periods before taking earned breaks, dramatically improving both productivity and presence.The path forward involves small, consistent habit changes that gradually transform our relationship with time. By becoming more intentional about our attention, establishing healthy boundaries around urgency, and aligning our daily actions with our core values, we can reclaim control over our 4,000 weeks and live with greater purpose and less stress.

The Job Market Is FrozenThat was the recent headline of an Atlantic article. It reflects the baffling frustration many job seekers are feeling right now. “Six months. Five-hundred-seventy-six applications. Twenty-nine responses. Four interviews. And still, no job.”Already in 2025, we are seeing a flurry of firings and layoffs happening across the corporate world and now in the U.S. federal government, too. This means that an estimated 200K displaced workers will enter the job market and compete for scarce jobs. How scarce? Well, the pace of hiring has slowed to levels last seen shortly after the Great Recession. Also, voluntary quitting to find a new job has fallen to its lowest level in a decade. People are worried, so they're staying put (if they can). Employers are concerned about the economy, so they aren't hiring. The job market is frozen. And now, with the recent tariffs, the stock market tanked, consumer confidence is falling as threats of inflation rise, and some are whispering the word “recession.” All of this is influencing my outlook for job searchers. * The layoffs and firings will continue in the U.S. this year. * More job seekers will enter the market to compete with you. * Fewer jobs will be available in the U.S. because companies are freezing hiring. * Even if you do land a U.S. job, you may get laid off soon after. * The political and economic turmoil will continue to damage our economy. My recommendationIf you need a new job and can work remotely (or with some travel), I highly encourage you to seek employment with a company based outside the U.S. A few people misunderstood my recommendation when I suggested this recently in a Substack note. They assumed that employment with a non-U.S. company would always require moving to a new country. Yes, that could be a requirement, and some people don't mind it at all (e.g., a few of my clients and friends have relocated to other countries over the past few years). However, I also have clients and colleagues who work for international companies and still live in the U.S. Let me give you a few examples: * Atlassian has its global HQ in Sydney, Australia. But, several friends of mine worked for them in their San Francisco office. * IKEA was founded in Sweden and is incorporated and headquartered in the Netherlands. They're always hiring in their U.S. locations. * Rakuten is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, but it also has offices in San Mateo and San Francisco, California. * 1Password is based in Toronto, Canada, but they hire for remote positions, too (U.S. or Canada). * Located in Virginia Beach, VA, STIHL Inc. is the U.S. affiliate of the global STIHL Group, founded in Germany. * Finally, here are some top German companies doing business in the U.S. You can search for similar companies from any country you find interesting. Why international?Why do I recommend these companies headquartered outside of the U.S.? * They have diversified global teams that aren't trapped in our local political turmoil. * They have global revenue sources that aren't tied 100% to the U.S. economy. * They are not under the complete control of the U.S. federal government, and we've seen what happens when American companies bend the knee. * International companies are seeking and appreciate U.S. talent. The number of American workers hired by international companies grew 62% in 2023. My hope is these companies will be more willing to hire new employees than U.S. companies seem to be right now. Also, working for an international company opens up opportunities that could be interesting for you later. For example, a friend worked for an international company in one of their U.S. locations for many years. Then, they asked to be relocated to one of their offices in another country. Now, they live there permanently and have never been happier. Here are some resources to help you find a job with an international company. * 15 Best International Companies Hiring U.S. Remote Workers* U.S. workers are getting scooped up by international companies hiring remote roles* 30 International Companies Hiring* InternationalJobs.com* RemoteJob.io (look for non-U.S. employers)* We Work RemotelyOf course, your income taxes get a little more complicated when you have income from non-U.S. sources. So, check out this overview of U.S. taxes on foreign income for individuals. I also recommend talking with your accountant to ensure you appropriately handle reporting and tax payments. Working for an international company set up to hire in the U.S. (e.g., it has an incorporated presence here) means they should be handling reporting for you, but it's wise to verify. Additional complexity is never fun. But being out of work for a long time is even worse. So, if you are struggling to land a new job with a U.S. company in this crazy job market, consider opportunities beyond our borders.

We may feel powerless at times like these, but we are not. Over 70M people in the U.S. didn't want the outcome we are dealing with now. Millions more are now regretting choices made that enabled what is happening.However, if we unite, we become powerful. The coordinated focus of our time, energy, and money would have a massive impact on those who think we have no voice. We are familiar with the idea of voting with our dollars. We change our spending habits to favor one business over another, to show that we reject a corporation's policies, and to influence a company's actions. It happens all the time. But we also live in an online world that isn't about the money we spend with a company. Instead, it's about the time and attention we give to their platforms, services, and apps. We are the product. Our data, behavior, and clicks are harvested to feed their advertising platforms. We don't pay Meta to use Facebook, for example. But that corporation sure makes a significant profit from our time spent in the app. So, we can vote with our time and attention, too, not just our dollars. By deactivating or deleting our accounts, we can starve specific platforms (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, Threads, X). We can also feed other platforms that represent the values we believe in (e.g., Bluesky). Money talks. When a company loses enough advertising revenue, they take notice. They may decide to change their policies and actions before it's too late, and they lose everything. We have the power to make that happen if we are willing to redistribute our time and attention. We can decide how we spend our money, time, and attention. We get to choose the companies that we feel are aligned with our values. But there is another way to live your values and influence policy that we don't talk about as often: Where you work.You can also “vote” with your blood, sweat, and tears. Our jobs are where we spend a significant portion of our adult lives. Of course, we need to work to live. We must cover our bills, buy groceries, and pay for housing. But work is already hard enough without being completely miserable while we are doing it. And working for an employer that doesn't align with your values adds another layer of pain to the misery. Being selective about choosing an employer is undoubtedly a privilege that not everyone can enjoy. If you live in a small community with few employers and no options for remote work, you are stuck with few choices. I grew up in a tiny farm town like that. The online world hadn't been created yet, and few local employers existed. You took any job you could find. However, those who do have more options for their career paths can use this opportunity to research, plan, and select employment that:* Aligns with their values.* Supports their belief system. * Positions them for the future. * Gives them flexibility and resilience. This podcast episode discusses these points in more detail, so scroll up, hit play, and listen. In summary, you have more power than you think to help change this world and right wrongs. * You can vote with your dollars to help influence policy. * You can vote with your time and attention to make change happen. * You can vote with your blood, sweat, and tears to reward the right kind of employers with the precious remaining time in your career. You deserve a career and a job that makes you feel good about waking up on Monday mornings!

Life transitions can be hard!

In this debut episode, I, Emily Liou, Certified Life Coach, explain my soul purpose and mission to evolve from a known job search coach to a life coach. Listen in as I delve into why I'm so freaking excited to share how you can cultivate your own joyful life.For the past 6+ years, I've been helping people land their dream jobs without applying online. I've made a name for myself as a “LinkedIn Top 10 Voice” to follow in job search and career, and I'm recognized for having one of the top career-coaching programs. But, as you'll learn in this episode, we are whole beings, and I've been feeling out of alignment with myself to not support your beautiful soul with everything that relates to inside and outside of your career.Together, we'll go on a journey of how you can come back to your whole self – your true authentic self, the self that loves and approves of yourself – no matter what you have on the exterior or what others say or think.And to begin, I have a practical exercise called the Wheel of Life to get you started on your journey.Listen in as we uncover the following topics:00:00 Welcome to the Journey: Discovering Your Why00:41 Introducing Cultivate Your Joyful Life01:33 The Personal Story Behind the Podcast02:11 Transitioning from Career Coach to Life Coach03:16 The Essence of Cultivating a Joyful Life08:13 Unveiling the Wheel of Life: A Guide to Fulfillment09:46 Your First Actionable Exercise: The Wheel of Life11:47 Gratitude and Next StepsThanks for joining me on this first episode of the Cultivate Your Joyful Life podcast.

Humour is a VERY important sense. Without it, we risk taking ourselves so seriously that we lose all perspective. Our sense of humour is a core part of gentleness (firm back, soft front) because it allows us to move through the world with greater flexibility and openness. We all have this sense! But it takes practice to remain humourously sensitised to the world around, within, and between us. In this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast, I share a Haven Courtyard conversation I had towards the end of 2023 with Roxana Alexandru and Neil Hughes. We explored how we might use humour to befriend anxiety and the inner critic in helpful and healthy ways. Rox helps people figure out ways to play with and change their relationship with debilitating social anxiety. She shares her experiments through Instagram and TikTok. Neil wrote the book Walking on Custard & the Meaning of Life: A Guide for Anxious Humans. It contains an inspiring ongoing meta dialogue with his inner critic throughout. Check out Neil's website and watch his TEDx Talk (A new plan for anxious feelings: escape the custard!) I love how both Rox and Neil relate to the voice of their inner critics, which is why I thought it would be fun to have them both on the same call…and I was right; it was! In our conversation, they explained why they felt drawn to use humour to engage with their inner critic and what they've learned. We Discuss Humour, Anxiety, Inner Critics, and... How can we work on our relationship with the inner critic in light-hearted ways? When is it better to be amused than anxious? Experimental ideas to take control over the process so that the fear doesn't gain power over you. How Neil's goal was to reach a point where he no longer needed to think/talk about anxiety. We explore how engaging with inner work as a temporary process (perhaps even obsession) can lead you to a light on the other side. The link between custard and anxiety and how seeing it through this metaphor can help identify and reach more solid and desirable ground. Situations and environments where social anxiety increases (and how to prepare/recover to avoid feedback loops) The simple power of being interested (rather than worrying about being interesting) The derailing fear of being misunderstood. Why we can never be prepared enough for every potential eventuality and how Neil engages with that truth in creatively humorous ways How scripting can help give a set of mental tools to draw on and use during times when we most need it Creating deliberate awkward moments helps the brain lean into discomfort on our terms. Why are our post-situational inner narratives often worse than the situations themselves - and how do we choose more favourable (and evidenced) narratives to believe? The sound of our inner critic (is it a voice? A narrative? Or a flavour?) How to relate to impostor feelings (or impostor syndrome) in a helpful and humourous way The stories we tell ourselves about appearances and how judgements by those around us about those around us can become internalised How do we gauge and measure progress with anxiety and the inner critic? And how do we recognise ways we have grown and are growing? Over to You Did you relate to any of the areas we covered in this conversation? Is there something related to humour, anxiety, and the inner critic that you would like me to explore more in the future? Leave a comment below or send me a message.

Today’s guest, Nathanael Garrett Novosel, discusses his book, “The Meaning of Life: A Guide to Finding Your Life's Purpose”, and gives a quick yet powerful breakdown of some of the purposes of life. But, before we can dive in, let us first explain who Nathanael is. Nathanael Garrett Novosel is a professional researcher. His main focuses are psychology, evolutionary biology, leadership and decision-making. He has over 20 years of experience studying individual and group behaviors. Through his years of studies, all his insights drove him to help leading companies resolve their most pressing organizational and strategic planning issues. Understand the FormulaNathanael’s book covers the eight concepts of life — growth, experience, desire, belief, emotions, ethics, support and choice. Covering each of these concepts on the podcast would take hours, so instead, he focuses on specific sections, like emotions. While many people do not like to dwell on their emotions, Nathanael teaches that your emotional state is ‘life’s feedback.’ Many emotions like happiness or excitement create the feedback of growth. The ultimate goal in life is to grow. Sometimes in life, we hit a standstill and cannot grow. During times like this, Nathanael encourages his followers to utilize the formula to emotions.Emotions = Desire + Belief + ExperienceIf you want to change your emotion and continue to grow, you need to change your beliefs. You Make the Decisions in Your LifeMaking choices in life gives you your purpose. Life without choice is pure torture. The moment you take away the ability for people to do whatever they want in life is the moment when they lose meaning. At the end of the day, everybody wants the freedom to choose their own reality. The most powerful message in the book is, “You create your own reality.” You Need to Have FaithEven though the emotion section is his favorite part of the book, the one section that changed him the most was the one on belief. Before writing his book, Nathanael did not believe that he could change specific aspects of his life. He believed that they were set in stone. But, through research and writing, he learned that beliefs influence actions. There are some points in life where we each hit a dark tunnel and feel like there is no escape. But, if you have something to hold onto, like faith, you can overcome anything that comes your way. Nathanael explains that you have to have faith to give your life meaning and to reach your full potential. If you enjoyed today’s guest speaker, then check out his book. You can also reach out to him on social media or on his website.

Simone and Malcolm Collins are co-authors of the book The Pragmatist's Guide To Life: A Guide to Creating Your Own Answers to Life's Biggest Questions. Their book is a ruthlessly pragmatic guide to creating your own answers to life's biggest questions.   Each of this book's four chapters covers one of the most important questions a person must ask themselves: Rather than give you answers to these questions, this guide provides a framework that helps you develop your own answers while equipping you with the neuroscientific tools necessary to transform yourself into whomever you choose to be. What is the purpose of my life? How can I best realize the purpose of my life? Who do I want to be? How do I want other people to think of me?   The book was created as the work of a nonprofit institution (http://pragmatist.guide/), dedicated to helping people think through the big questions in life without leading them to a specific answer.  All proceeds from the sale of the book go to the nonprofit, and not the authors   Originally a neuroscientist focused on brain-computer interface and the evolution of human cognition (his work is on display at the Smithsonian), Malcolm Collins felt he could learn more about the way humans interact with the world and each other by pursuing an MBA at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. There he met Simone, his wife and co-author, who at the time was Director of Marketing at HubPages.com, managing a team of 20,000 freelancers. Together they co-founded the art commission marketplace ArtCorgi.com, after which Malcolm became Director of Strategy at South Korea's most desired source of early-stage VC capital and Simone earned her graduate degree from Cambridge while working in VC. The couple now runs a number of travel companies (with a focus on Travelmax), splitting their time between North American headquarters in Miami, FL and South American offices in Lima, Peru.    Listen as we talk about:   What it’s like to find purpose  Why the question of playing video games or studying for a test propelled Malcom into his quest for purpose Am I really my future self? How human consciousness has shifted over the course of evolution and has prevented us from fully thinking through our personal purpose How a statistical and scientific approach can  manufacture love Why they choose to apply thinking and rationality to purpose above other paradigms An important question to ask yourself that may change the way you question and construct your worldview Why they look for people and communities that they find offensive How a nail salon turned into a guide and into a book  How they believe after school programs can help kids check their beliefs  Why they chose prestigious schools Why they have to care what people think of them to fulfill their objective functions Why it’s important to create a caricature of yourself  Why relationships can bring you to purpose How marriage is a force multiplier that fulfills their collective purpose The three types of friends that help us achieve our objective function  How they can help you get cheap international trips      --------------Resources Mentioned: ---------------------     The Pragmatist’s Guide to Life: A Guide to Creating Your Own Answers to Life’s Biggest Questions - Simone & Malcolm Collins   The Red Pill- documentary about a feminist's journey into the Men's Rights Movement   The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists - Neil Strauss   Less Wrong Community - a community blog focused on "refining the art of human rationality"   https://travelmax.com/ - Their wholesale travel website for booking complex international trips    Email travelmax@ceo to work with Malcolm on booking cheap international travel     Join our purpose seeking podcast community at...   Facebook   Instagram   YouTube Channel    Facebook Group - Purpose Seekers   Help More Find Their Purpose by Donating to the Cause    

This bonus episode is probably one of my favorite dense episodes that’s a departure from our normal topic: Malcolm and Simone Collins are a married couple and tour de force for figuring out your values with brutal pragmatism – your objective function, as they call it. We cover topics like “what are logical fallacies people make with money?” and “how do emotions help you actually find your values?”  and “if your number one value is family, how do you relate that to career and money?” If you want to dive into their book, which I loved for all it’s weightiness, it is $.99 on Amazon: The Pragmatist’s Guide to Life: A Guide to Creating Your Own Answers to Life’s Biggest Questions  and their foundation The Pragmatist Foundation.

Get the transcript at www.feelgoodenglish.com Today I’m going to teach you a lesson from a book called “A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy” by William Braxton Irvine. In this book, Irvine offers a refreshing presentation of Stoicism, showing how this ancient philosophy can still direct us toward a better life. I’m only going to share one lesson from this book, a lesson on how to get through the grocery store checkout line much faster, just kidding, but one very valuable lesson which will show you how the teachings of Stoicism can help us be little more grounded in today’s crazy world. Before I get into that, if you’re new here, or aren’t that new but still only put Feel Good English in your ears, I also have something for your eyes. Something to read, as I send out weekly emails that contain short interesting thoughts to thousands of interested English learners. If you want to receive those weekly emails, go to feelgoodenglish.com and look for the bear. The bear will be waiting for you on my website to help you sign up. The bear works for me for free, and the email is free too! Isn’t that nice? Now enough bear talk, let’s get into the lesson.
