Have you ever hit a birthday and thought, “Whoa… I learned a lot this year”?In this special birthday episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm breaking down 36 life lessons from 36 trips around the sun, the real stuff, the hard-won wisdom, the wins, the mistakes, and the things that actually helped me put the Happy in my Hustle this past year.Every year, I do this little tradition where I reflect back on the life truths that hit the hardest across all 10 Happy Hustle alignments. It's not about being perfect. It's about staying aligned, being intentional, and actually enjoying this wild ride called life.And if you're an entrepreneur like me trying to grow your business without burning out, these lessons will resonate. Because honestly, most of them came from learning things the hard way. Fatherhood stretched me. Marriage humbled me. Health reminded me not to take shortcuts. Faith grounded me. Nature healed me. And business? Man… business taught me a ton about focus and what actually matters.A few of the biggest lessons I break down inside the episode:Giving to others is one of the fastest ways to fill yourself up—it's crazy how true that is.Your health will humble you real quick if you neglect it (ask me how I know).Your attention is your most valuable currency, and your phone will steal it if you let it.If you want a 10-level partner, you've gotta be a 10-level partner—hard truth, but a game changer.And joy? Joy comes when you prioritize fun, passion, and presence… not just productivity.I also share why faith expanded for me this year, why nature remains my best medicine, and why focusing on margin over revenue has brought more peace and abundance into my world than ever before. These 36 lessons aren't just motivational, they're practical and immediately actionable.My hope is simple: If just one of these lessons helps you harmonize your ambition and your well-being…If just one truth gives you clarity, relief, inspiration, or direction…Then this episode did its job.So if you're ready to reset, realign, and maybe laugh a little at my mistakes along the way, I'd be honored to have you join me for this birthday special.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Technology promised us progress, and it delivered. But it also left us disconnected, distracted, and disheartened at the same time. With AI advancing faster than human adaptation or regulation, will it erode our humanity, or can it become the very tool that helps us flourish?In this episode of the Happiness Squad Podcast, Ashish Kothari sits down with Tamara Lechner to explore how AI can bridge the gap between what we know and what we practice in the pursuit of human flourishing.Tamara Lechner is a happiness expert, author, and global speaker. As Chair of the AI & Human Flourishing Working Group at Harvard, she helps leaders and organizations apply the science of flourishing to create meaningful, human-centered futures.In the conversation, Ashish and Tamara unpack how AI can either harm or uplift us, and what it will take for leaders, organizations, and individuals to put humans at the heart of this powerful technology.Things you will learn in this episode:• Why AI is both friend and foe depending on how we use it.• The three ethical AI pillars: productivity, protection from harm, and fairness.• The overlooked dimensions of flourishing AI must support• Why organizations—not just individuals—must own responsibility for burnout and culture.• How to shift from audience to activist in shaping the future of technologyJoin us in building a future where technology enhances humanity rather than diminishes it.

Fear, not skill, is what's costing you opportunities at the negotiation table.

Why negotiation isn't about your worth — and what it's really about. The hidden ROI of just five hours a year of negotiation practice (hint: it can be worth $1M+).

Respect isn't soft — it's the sharpest power move in any negotiation. Buy The Book: Leading with Respect: Adventures of an Off-Price Fashion Pioneer: https://www.amazon.com/Leading-Respect-Boardroom-Marcy-Syms/dp/0806544813 Most people think negotiation is about leverage, contracts, and numbers. But Marcy Syms — former CEO of Syms clothing stores and author of Leading with Respect — knows the real power comes from something far deeper: respect. In this conversation, Marcy shares how being underestimated became her secret weapon, why culture can make or break multimillion-dollar deals, and how trust and regard are the hidden currencies behind lasting success. From walking into boardrooms as the youngest woman on the New York Stock Exchange to navigating mergers where culture ate strategy for breakfast, Marcy reveals how respect isn't “soft” — it's the sharpest strategy you can bring to the table. You'll learn: Why being underestimated can give you an edge. How to turn disrespect into leverage in high-stakes negotiations. Why 70% of mergers fail — and how culture and respect could save them. How to walk away from deals (and jobs) that don't honor your values. Whether you're negotiating in business, leadership, or your personal life, this episode will change how you see respect — not as a weakness, but as the ultimate power move.
