Most ambition advice is about how to reach the top of the mountain. Luke Burgis points out that many of us have an upstream problem: we're climbing a mountain we don't actually care about. Michael and Megan sit down with Burgis, a Wall Street suit turned entrepreneur turned philosopher, father, and author of several books on desire. They unpack why not all desires are created equal, how to unearth the ones that lead to real satisfaction, and what the monastic tradition offers those of us who will never be monks. This conversation gives you a way to separate what you actually want from the noise of mimetic desire.Memorable Quotes“Ambition without a sense of self or a differentiation of self is just a highly sophisticated form of conformity.”“You can get really good at achieving goals without wondering whether they're the right goals in the first place.”“A simple exercise is just: Name the models of your desire. Who are the people who have given you your own desires?”“One of the easiest ways to kind of determine whether a desire is thin or thick is: Does it persist through different seasons of life, through different environments, through different friend groups, through different relationships?”“A lot of people go straight to productivity and organization… before asking the most important question: Should I even be trying to integrate this at all?”“Each person has an unrepeatable calling, something that only they can do with their unique history and situation and context. I think our thickest desire is oriented towards living out of a personal vocation... Thick desire is a signpost to a calling which can be lived out in and through our work.”“Being in communion means learning how to be a differentiated self with a calling while also being part of something bigger. And sometimes that creates a little bit of tension, and our instinct is to flee any form of tension or any anxiety. And I think there's a lot to be learned from sitting in the tension to be a part and to be oneself.”“Which kinds of communities and groups flatten any kind of distinctiveness? And which ones actually allow people to evolve and to be part of the whole, or to be part of the body without demanding that they be something that they're not, or demanding that they sacrifice their integrity?”Key TakeawaysYour Ambition Might Be Borrowed. Mimetic desire means we absorb what we want from the people we watch. Whose careers do you track closely, with mixed feelings? Naming our models of desire creates helpful distance for effective discernment.Thin Desires Are Short-Lived. We might feel thin desires strongly, but they erode when the context shifts. A thick desire persists across seasons, relationships, and jobs. Write down what you want, then wait: Is the desire durable?The Tension of Communion. Being in communion requires being a differentiated self and participating in the larger whole—which creates an enduring, unresolvable tension. We must have the courage to decide who we will be without fleeing or falling into crowd instinct.Every Check Comes with Terms. A financially sound decision can still be the wrong one if it commits you to work you don't believe in. When there's money on the line, weigh the funder's desires for alignment with your own before you agree to terms. You Might Need a Rule. There's a reason the Rule of Saint Benedict has governed communal life for fifteen hundred years. Setting your own rules of engagement within your organization or just for yourself can equip you to navigate complex situations before you're in the middle of one.Discernment is a Community Endeavor. Blind spots are invisible from the inside. Recruit the people closest to you—whether within formal groups or informal relationships—to offer feedback on complex decisions. (But be sure to filter for communities that invite you to become yourself rather than requiring conformity.)ResourcesWanting: The Power of Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life by Luke BurgisThe One and the 99: Forging Identity in the Age of Social Contagion by Luke BurgisUnrepeatable: Cultivating the Unique Calling of Every Person by Luke Burgis and Joshua Millerlukeburgis.comThe Courage to Be by Paul TillichLifeFocusThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

Much requested, Michael from Tension joined us this week. I sort of hoped this episode would devolve into a mudslinging match as we fought to shift the tiller of board climbing towards our respective visions of board utopia. As it turned out, we actually agreed on most things when it comes to board climbing, but we enjoyed chatting about them anyway. It's a nerdy chat about boards, obviously, but it's also so much more than ..... actually that is basically it, but as two board nerds we enjoyed it anyway. Michael has contributed a huge amount to the scene, not least with his invention of the Board Lords series on YouTube, which is where you can watch a bunch of handsome folk flexing into the camera in a way we all enjoy. If you're the sort of person who finds board climbing culture a bit nauseating, might I recommend listening to Testpiece this week? Or maybe try the rest is history, they did a cracking series on Horatio Nelson which is worth a listen... Anyone still here? No? If you're enjoying the podcast and would like it to continue for a while longer: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=70353823Support the show

Andy Byng joins Jane and Sarah to explore the history, philosophy, and theology of Spiritualism — and why mediumship is simply a natural part of being human. Andy has spent decades teaching and developing mediums worldwide, and brings a grounded, almost academic lens to a subject that's often treated as mysterious or rare. *This is a re-release from May 2025*. Andy shares how his own mediumship awakened, and the personal development that shaped his understanding of spirit. Storytelling sits at the heart of his teaching: life creates its own narrative, and that narrative becomes the language spirit uses to communicate with us. He also makes the case for approaching the spirit world as a partnership rather than a hierarchy, and for presenting mediumship rationally, as something that works within natural laws. The conversation turns to what mediumship offers the world right now, and the role community and personal purpose play in spiritual growth. Is mediumship a rare gift? Not according to Andy — he teaches that mediumship isn't a rare gift, but a natural expression of our connection to the spirit world, available to far more people than most assume. Takeaways Storytelling is a powerful tool for spirit communication, because every communicator needs to establish who they are. Mediumship isn't a rare gift. It's a natural expression of our connection to the spirit world. Developing as a medium starts with developing as a person. Your life experiences become part of the vocabulary spirit works with. A relationship with spirit is built on friendship, not worship. Approaching mediumship rationally, within natural laws, makes it more credible and more accessible. Tension gets in the way. An open heart and a relaxed mind leave room for connection. Mediumship can remind us of our spiritual nature when physical life feels hard. Every experience can serve a spiritual purpose. Sound bites "Storytelling is a big part of my teaching." "Life creates a narrative all by itself." "Every experience can be spiritual."

Your body is sending you signals constantly. Hunger. Fullness. Fatigue. Tension. Overstimulation. The need to move. The need to stop. And most of us have spent years overriding those signals so consistently that we can no longer reliably read them. In this episode I introduce the concept of interoception, the body's ability to sense its own internal state, and make the case that rebuilding this relationship may be one of the most important health skills available. I also explore the gaslighting pattern we apply to ourselves: you are not really tired, you can push through, you do not need a break, you are just being dramatic. The body stops being heard until we find ourselves genuinely unable to tell what we actually need. Restoring this relationship is not complicated. It is just slow. And it starts with one practice: before you react, pause and ask what your body is actually telling you. Want everything in one place?

1930 SHANGHAIManaging Superpower Tension and TradeJake Werner analyzes the three-day summit between Chinese President Xi Jinping and President Trump, emphasizing the need to maintain their fragile trade truce. Key topics include setting safety guardrails for artificial intelligence and managing ongoing tensions regarding Taiwan. Werner notes that mutual economic leverage—US restrictions on advanced Nvidia microchips versus China's control over rare earth processing—has created a delicate balance of economic terror. Furthermore, neither power desires military conflict over Taiwan or in the Persian Gulf. (2)

President Trump is preparing for a high-stakes summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, with many issues top of mind that may be part of their conversations: artificial intelligence, trade, and global tensions are all on the table for the two leaders. Senior Advisor for American Global Strategies and FOX News Contributor Michael Pillsbury joins Jacqui Heinrich after taking a trip to Beijing. He breaks down what Chinese officials are saying behind closed doors and what the mood surrounding the U.S.-China relationship is like. A new set of power rankings and FOX News polling highlights growing Democratic enthusiasm alongside key vulnerabilities for Republicans heading into the midterms. Government Professor at the University of Texas Austin, GOP Pollster and FOX News Decision Desk member Daron Shaw discusses these potential blue wave numbers, examining how candidates are navigating inflation messaging, public sentiment toward MAGA and the Democratic Socialists of America, and why voters may be short on patience for either party.

Building muscle can be hard, but one thing that can make it easier is to use mechanically inefficient exercises that work your muscles through more range of motion under tension (range of tension). These exercises may not allow you to lift as much weight or do as many reps, but that's a good thing. The more mechanically difficult the exercise is, the easier it will be to sufficiently work your muscles to stimulate faster muscle growth.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton talk about a pattern that sounds counterintuitive until you have lived it — the tension, irritability, and low-grade anxiety that builds in the hours before a day off rather than the relief that should be there. The shift is almost over. The days off are coming. And instead of feeling the anticipation of rest, the first responder feels unsettled, short-tempered, or quietly on edge in ways that do not make sense on the surface but make complete sense once you understand what the nervous system has been trained to expect. This episode unpacks exactly why this happens — and what to do about it.

God is bringing expansion – even if what you're experiencing right now seems to suggest the opposite.There is an unusual tension in this season. You may feel stirred by God to believe for more – more faith, more vision, more purpose, more possibility – while at the very same time, familiar supports seem to be shifting or even disappearing.In this episode, Robert shares a prophetic word from the story of Gideon that reveals what may be happening in this season, why expansion and contraction can seem to be occurring at the same time, and what God is inviting you into through it.Be encouraged. The tension you've been feeling may be pointing to something much greater than you realize.Get ready for expansion.I prefer this for Spotify because an audio listener has already chosen to spend more time with you, so the description can be a little warmer and more substantive without giving away the heart of the revelation.

President Trump is preparing for a high-stakes summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, with many issues top of mind that may be part of their conversations: artificial intelligence, trade, and global tensions are all on the table for the two leaders. Senior Advisor for American Global Strategies and FOX News Contributor Michael Pillsbury joins Jacqui Heinrich after taking a trip to Beijing. He breaks down what Chinese officials are saying behind closed doors and what the mood surrounding the U.S.-China relationship is like. A new set of power rankings and FOX News polling highlights growing Democratic enthusiasm alongside key vulnerabilities for Republicans heading into the midterms. Government Professor at the University of Texas Austin, GOP Pollster and FOX News Decision Desk member Daron Shaw discusses these potential blue wave numbers, examining how candidates are navigating inflation messaging, public sentiment toward MAGA and the Democratic Socialists of America, and why voters may be short on patience for either party.

Built For Life, Not Just Wealth is the podcast from Ryan Burklo and Alex Collins of Quantified Financial Partners in the Greater Seattle area. Earlier episodes were published as Beer & Money and Holistic Finance. In today's episode of Built For Life, Not Just Wealth, what if the thing blocking your financial progress is just one tiny word? Ryan Burklo reveals why the difference between saying "but" and "and" can expose the real tension behind your money goals - whether you want to build wealth, retire earlier, help your kids, or keep your lifestyle exactly the same. If you've ever felt stuck trying to want two good things at once, this episode gives you a better way to name it. Ryan breaks down how "and" changes the conversation from wishful thinking to honest trade-offs. Instead of forcing yourself to pick one goal too early, you'll learn how to identify competing priorities, test whether both can actually be true, and understand what has to change if they can't.   Check out our website:  https://www.builtforlifenotjustwealth.com/ Find us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@builtforlifenotjustwealth/ Subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.quantifiedfinancial.com/subscribe-now Check out our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ryanburklofinance?igsh=ZTJzN3Jnajd5M2Mw Ryan Burklo's LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanburklo/ Alex Collin's LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandercollins/ For a quick assessment of your current financial life go to: https://www.livingbalancesheet.com/lbsVision/lite/RyanBurklo     #BuiltForLifeNotJustWealth #goalsetting #financialplanning #lifebalance #SethGodin #mindset #personaldevelopment   Takeaways Using 'and' instead of 'but' reveals competing goals that need reconciliation. Recognizing your 'and' helps create more realistic and achievable plans. Asking three key questions can clarify whether goals are possible and what trade-offs are involved. Understanding the tension between goals can lead to better decision-making. Writing down your conflicting desires makes it easier to address them intentionally.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to the 'And' Concept 02:02 The Role of Tension in Planning 04:33 Building a Plan for Multiple Goals 05:19 Practical Steps to Clarify Your 'And' 06:13 Key Questions to Ask Yourself 07:03 Final Thoughts and Takeaways
