Are we raising children—or building résumés? In this powerful episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, host Ginny Yurich sits down with internationally bestselling author Carl Honoré (In Praise of Slowness, Under Pressure) to explore the dark undercurrent of modern parenting: the obsession with performance. From Baby Einstein to Mandarin in the Moses basket, today's childhood has become a race—and our kids are burning out before they even begin. Honoré calls out the rise of the “trophy child” and reveals how hyper-parenting, micromanagement, and constant comparison are robbing kids of joy, resilience, and identity. Together, Carl and Ginny unpack why slowing down isn't lazy—it's revolutionary. If you've ever questioned the pressure to do more, be more, and push harder, this episode is your permission slip to opt out. Childhood doesn't need to be upgraded. It needs to be reclaimed. ***
Esther Perel. Si vous vous intéressez aux relations humaines, vous la connaissez forcément. Elle est thérapeute de couple, conférencière, et ses deux livres – L'intelligence érotique et Aimer, je t'aime, je te trompe – sont devenus des références. Son podcast, ses TED Talks (vus plus de 21 millions de fois !) et sa capacité à parler de l'amour avec une intelligence rare font d'elle une voix incontournable. Nous nous connaissons d'ailleurs depuis quelques années, et c'est toujours un plaisir immense d'échanger avec elle.Dans cet épisode, j'ai voulu comprendre comment nos relations évoluent à l'ère du digital et surtout pourquoi elles semblent à la fois plus libres et plus complexes. Esther pose un regard lucide et parfois dérangeant : nous avons plus de choix que jamais, mais nous nous sentons plus seuls que jamais.J'ai questionné Esther sur les grands paradoxes modernes :Comment concilier le désir d'autonomie avec celui d'appartenance ?Pourquoi demandons-nous aujourd'hui à une seule personne tout ce qu'une communauté entière nous apportait autrefois ?Le concept d'âme sœur est-il un mythe qui nous rend malheureux ?Comment le sexe, passé de reproductif à récréatif, redéfinit notre rapport à la fidélité ?Et surtout, quel est l'impact du digital – sites de rencontre, smartphones omniprésents – sur notre capacité à être réellement présents à l'autre ?Esther va loin : elle parle de la transformation du couple, devenu un projet basé sur le bonheur individuel plutôt qu'un contrat économique, et de l'immense pression qui en découle. Elle revient aussi sur la question de la masculinité à l'ère du MeToo, expliquant pourquoi les hommes doivent eux aussi réinventer leur rapport à la vulnérabilité.C'est un échange passionnant, parfois philosophique, toujours concret. Si vous êtes en couple, si vous vous interrogez sur l'amour ou si vous avez simplement envie de mieux comprendre pourquoi nos relations amoureuses semblent si fragiles aujourd'hui, vous allez adorer cette conversation.5 citations marquantes"La qualité de nos relations détermine la qualité de notre vie, pas seulement nos accomplissements." – Esther Perel"Aujourd'hui, on attend d'une seule personne ce qu'on attendait autrefois de tout un village." – Esther Perel"Le sexe n'est plus seulement quelque chose que l'on fait, c'est devenu quelqu'un que l'on est." – Esther Perel"La monogamie n'est plus une personne pour la vie, mais une personne à la fois." – Esther Perel"Le plus grand luxe aujourd'hui n'est pas le choix, mais l'attention." – Esther Perel10 questions poséesQu'est-ce qui a vraiment changé dans nos relations ces dernières années ?Quels sont les grands paradoxes que nous devons gérer dans le couple aujourd'hui ?L'âme sœur existe-t-elle vraiment ou est-ce un mythe romantique ?Quel est l'impact du sexe récréatif sur la fidélité et le couple moderne ?Pourquoi le bonheur est-il devenu la nouvelle base du couple ?Quel est l'impact du digital et des sites de rencontre sur les relations amoureuses ?Pourquoi nous sentons-nous souvent seuls, même dans un couple, à cause des smartphones ?Quels rituels peut-on mettre en place pour recréer de la connexion dans le couple ?Que penses-tu du féminisme actuel et de l'impact du MeToo sur les relations homme-femme ?Pourquoi les hommes doivent-ils aussi repenser leur rapport à la masculinité et à la vulnérabilité ?Timestamps clés 00:00 – Introduction & présentation d'Esther Perel01:30 – Qu'est-ce qui a changé dans nos relations modernes ?03:10 – Les paradoxes du couple aujourd'hui : autonomie vs loyauté05:00 – Pourquoi on demande tout à une seule personne aujourd'hui06:40 – Le mythe de l'âme sœur et la pression du choix infini09:10 – Du sexe reproductif au sexe récréatif : quelles implications ?14:20 – La monogamie revisitée et la quête du bonheur dans le couple16:30 – L'impact du digital sur nos relations et la solitude moderne22:40 – Les rituels pour retrouver de la connexion dans le couple27:30 – Masculinité, féminisme et redéfinition des rôles35:05 – Le “Vlan” d'Esther : claquer la porte aux modèles relationnels figésDistribué par Audiomeans.

In a talk that's by turns heartbreaking and hilarious, writer and podcaster Nora McInerny shares her hard-earned wisdom about life and death. Her candid approach to something that will, let's face it, affect us all, is as liberating as it is gut-wrenching. Most powerfully, she encourages us to shift how we approach grief. "A grieving person is going to laugh again and smile again," she says. "They're going to move forward. But that doesn't mean that they've moved on."This episode originally aired on December 25, 2019.Want to help shape TED's shows going forward?

Dr. Anne Marie Morse walks into the studio like a one-woman Jersey Broadway show and leaves behind the best damn TED Talk you've never heard. She's a neurologist, sleep medicine doc, narcolepsy expert, founder of D.A.M.M. Good Sleep, and full-time myth buster in a white coat. We talk about why sleep isn't a luxury, why your mattress does matter, and how melatonin is the new Flintstones vitamin with a marketing budget. We unpack the BS around sleep hygiene, blow up the medical gaslighting around “disorders,” and dig into how a former aspiring butterfly became one of the loudest voices for patient-centered science. Also: naps, kids, burnout, CPAPs, co-sleeping, airport pods, the DeLorean, and Carl Sagan. If you think you're getting by on five hours of sleep and vibes, you're not. This episode will make you want to take a nap—and then call your doctor.RELATED LINKSdammgoodsleep.com: https://www.dammgoodsleep.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anne-marie-morse-753b2821/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dammgoodsleepDocWire News Author Page: https://www.docwirenews.com/author/anne-marie-morseSleep Review Interview: https://sleepreviewmag.com/practice-management/marketing/word-of-mouth/sleep-advocacy-anne-marie-morse/Geisinger Bio: https://providers.geisinger.org/provider/anne-marie-morse/756868SWHR Profile: https://swhr.org/team/anne-marie-morse-do-faasm/FEEDBACKLike this episode?

389 Identifying and Acting On Problems You Can Solve We are surrounded by problems everyday of our lives, some manageable and others seeming too monumental to handle alone. Which is why it is so important to build a community of like minded individuals with the same goal of making a true difference. In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Tessa Clarke discuss the relationship people have with stuff, food waste, and how Tessa's company Olio have been making a real difference in the face of the climate crisis. Highlights Our relationship with objects, like clothing, that shape our identity. What do you waste without realizing? How much do you think you throw away in a week? A month? And a year? We all need someone in our corner to help build us up and to help chart a path forward. Building community while also solving problems. Quit wishing things would be better and start making the change yourself. Quotes “We always think the grass is greener on the other side but it never is.” “What's good for the planet is good for people and vice versa.” “It is honestly exhausting being a founder, trying to drive the change in a world that's set up not to change. So you've got to find ways to reenergize yourself and to keep going, to keep fighting every single day.” Dear Listeners it is now your turn, When you think about those 4 to 5 years that Tessa talked about and that journey of wanting to be entrepreneurial and thinking about it in terms of “what is the problem I can solve?” What is something you could start today, maybe it eventually becomes a side hustle, maybe the side hustle stays a side hustle, or maybe it turns into something more. What is a problem that you've experienced, that maybe you're the person to solve? And, as always, thank you for listening. About Tessa Tessa Clarke is the co-founder and CEO of Olio, the world's only neighbour-to-neighbour food-sharing app, and a trailblazing force in the fight against waste. Since launching in 2015 - and as a remote first business - Olio has grown into a global movement with 8 million users, redistributing over 100 million meals and 14 million household items, proving that small actions can drive massive change. Recognised as Veuve Clicquot's Bold Woman of the Year in 2023, Tessa is also a Sifted columnist, an Ambassador for the Better Business Act, and a member of the Small Business Growth Forum, advising the UK Government on SME concerns. With a track record of disrupting industry and mobilising communities, Tessa is a passionate speaker who inspires audiences to rethink business, sustainability, and the power of grassroots innovation. Check out Tessa's LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram! As well as her website Olio, and her TED Talk! About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

improve it! Podcast – Professional Development Through Play, Improv & Experiential Learning
In today's snack, Erin's busting the myth that a mentor is just going to magically appear and fix everything. The Problem: We've all heard it—“You need a mentor!” But asking for one feels like proposing after two dates. We freeze, wait, and convince ourselves no one has time for us. The Improv Hack to Try: The Spotlight Flip Instead of waiting for someone to spotlight you, flip the light on THEM. Next time you meet someone you admire, ask: "I love how you [specific thing]. If you were giving a TED Talk to your younger self, what would it be about?" No pressure, just pure curiosity. Why it works: In improv, making others look good builds trust. Spotlighting someone makes them more likely to engage with you, so mentorship might follow naturally. Bonus Tip: Mentorship isn't always formal. Keep a list of “unofficial mentors” to learn from passively. Wednesday Tease: Catch Episode 298 this Wednesday: Stop Waiting for a Mentor to Magically Appear—Start Here Instead. Don't miss it!

Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates.

Barcelona is a city that can't be separated from its art–you might picture Gaudí architecture, Picasso paintings, or flamenco and jazz spilling onto the streets and into the night. But there's another art scene that's breaking into the mainstream from the margins–led by the city's street vendors, known as manteros. Listen to how this group of people, often immigrants without legal protections or rights to work in Spain, fought to form a union to gain the voice they needed, and ended up creating a global and people-centered fashion-label that highlights human rights in the process.This episode originally aired July 28, 2022.Want to help shape TED's shows going forward?

De toute l'ère humaine, nous n'avons jamais été aussi connectés — et en même temps jamais été aussi seuls.Psychothérapeute clinicienne depuis plus de 30 ans, Esther Perel s'est imposée comme la référence mondiale des relations humaines.Elle commence sa carrière en étudiant en profondeur les comportements humains comme l'infidélité ou le dilemme liberté/sécurité que nous vivons tous dans nos relations. Elle accompagne alors des couples en quête d'une meilleure connexion.Ses conseils résonnent rapidement bien au-delà des murs de son cabinet : plusieurs best-sellers mondiaux, des TED Talks qui font plusieurs dizaines de millions de vues, et un podcast star "Where Should We Begin?" qu'elle crée pour ouvrir la thérapie de couple au grand public.Aujourd'hui Esther se concentre — entre autres — sur les effets du numérique dans nos relations : perte de contact physique, conversations sans réelle présence, effondrement du lien affectif…Elle dresse ainsi un constat implacable : “nous subissons une atrophie sociale à l'échelle mondiale”.Partout dans le monde, l'experte est adulée pour sa capacité hors du commun à comprendre, identifier la source du mal-être de ses patients et à les guider vers une vie plus heureuse. Elle livre des clés concrètes pour renouer avec l'autre, réparer l'intimité et retisser le lien là où il s'est délié.Un épisode essentiel, passionnant et particulièrement "cash" : Esther nous rappelle avec lucidité que la qualité de nos relations détermine la qualité de notre vie — et qu'il est urgent de réapprendre à aimer, à écouter, à se parler vraiment.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : faire de son podcast une campagne de santé publique00:15:53 : isolement, atrophie sociale, perte ambiguë : ces maux qui rongent notre société00:26:21 : “la qualité de nos relations détermine la qualité de notre vie”00:34:32 : les années 60, point de bascule dans toutes les relations humaines00:42:45 : un monde sans friction qui détruit nos liens00:52:21 : le combat perpétuel entre le besoin de liberté et le besoin de sécurité01:03:57 : parler d'infidélité sans en devenir l'avocate01:17:01 : comment garder la flamme : les lois invisibles des relations durables01:28:42 : pourquoi le désir finit toujours par s'estomper01:47:04 : comment bien choisir son thérapeute01:53:06 : les 2 antidotes d'Esther pour trouver un sens à sa vieLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #468 - Chloé Bouscatel - Monday Sports Club - S'inspirer des US pour créer des expériences sportives qui rendent accro#383 - Xavier Chauvin - Beauté Privée - Économie de l'attention : reprendre le contrôle face aux écrans#409 - Alexandre Jardin - Auteur, yourscrib.ai - Peut-on laisser la folie gouverner sa vie ?Nous avons parlé de :Le podcast d'Esther - “Where Should We Begin”Notion d'“Ambiguous Loss” ou de “Perte Ambigüe” en FrançaisLa théorie du visage mortThe "Still Face" ExperimentJeu interactif pour couples et amis “Where Should We Begin?”Episode “Esther says ‘Run!'”La théorie de l'attachementL'article du Monde qui décrit Esther comme une “avocate de l'infidélité”Affaire Clinton-LewinskyTed “Rethinking infidelity… a talk for anyone who has ever loved” - Esther PerelCulture AmpLes recommandations de lecture :Je t'aime, je te trompe - Esther PerelL'intelligence érotique - Esther PerelL'île des Gauchers - Alexandre JardinMan's Search for Meaning - Frankl, Viktor E.Découvrir un sens à sa vie - Frankl, Viktor E.Vous pouvez suivre Esther sur LinkedIn et sur Instagram.

Revealing how methane contributes (way) more in the short term to global warming than carbon dioxide, chemical engineer Daniel Zavala-Araiza highlights the emerging technologies and bold new policies that are part of a worldwide effort to hold oil and gas companies accountable for polluting our skies with this harmful gas.

Business Coaching Secrets - Episode 305 Summary In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into what it really takes to build, sustain, and scale a thriving business coaching practice. The duo tackles foundational business concepts, industry mistakes, the true meaning of “why,” actionable hacks for goal setting, and demystifies financial jargon like EBITDA. Real-world stories, sharp insights, and actionable frameworks pepper the episode, making it essential listening for both new and experienced coaches ready to level up. Key Topics Covered From Stuff to Investments: Reframing Business Decisions Karl Bryan discusses the importance of transitioning from a consumer mindset (buying stuff) to an investor mindset, stressing that tax systems are designed to reward investment, not consumption. He urges coaches to build leverage by creating business assets—processes, checklists, sales tools—rather than endless, unproductive “to-do” lists. The Checklist Principle—Why It Matters Drawing parallels from aviation safety and the medical field, Karl demonstrates how a simple checklist can prevent disasters and streamline operations. He advocates every coach should adopt the checklist mentality for lead generation, demonstrations, and client delivery. Clarity Over Certainty—Common Coaching Industry Mistakes Karl challenges the coaching world's obsession with “certainty,” arguing that adaptability and assertiveness—not rigid certainty—are the real traits of thriving entrepreneurs and coaches. He emphasizes action over perfection, quoting successful entrepreneurs who act on partial information and adjust rapidly. Demystifying EBITDA and the Language of Business Karl breaks down EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization), explaining why this metric is used and its limitations in real-world small business scenarios. He urges coaches to focus on learning to read financials—calling it the ultimate “cheat sheet” for delivering value and driving a business forward. Goal Setting Hacks—The Sniper Approach For effective goal achievement, Karl recommends setting hyper-clear targets with “sniper-like” focus, obsessing over them, and ruling out distractions. He explains why wishy-washy goals lead to lackluster results and shares tactics to maintain relentless clarity. Finding and Using Your ‘Why' The episode revisits the importance of purpose (drawing from Simon Sinek's famous TED Talk), offering coaches a framework to discover their own “why” via their three most painful life experiences. Karl details how this “North Star” approach powers authentic connection, standout marketing, and fierce client loyalty. Notable Quotes “Don't create a to-do list. Create a ‘to-build' list.” – Karl Bryan “Needing nothing attracts everything.” – Karl Bryan “It's not the strongest that survive… It's the most adaptable.” – Karl Bryan “If your goal is wishy-washy, your results will be wishy-washy.” – Karl Bryan “Wealth follows people with clear intentions—and wealth and options go hand in hand.” – Karl Bryan “Your story is what will move people… Your ‘why' is the difference between you and every other business coach.” – Rode Dog Actionable Takeaways • Shift From Consuming to Investing: Ask yourself, “Are you buying stuff, or are you building and investing in long-term assets?” • Build Leverage With Checklists: Create checklists for every major aspect of your coaching business—client acquisition, delivery, demonstration, and more—to reduce errors and increase consistency. • Emphasize Adaptability Over Certainty: Stay flexible, assertively seek solutions, and avoid perfection paralysis. Progress and confidence beat static “certainty.” • Master Financial Fluency: Learn to read and interpret financial statements—this is a critical edge and a “cheat code” for deep, transformational coaching. • Set Clear, Obsession-Worthy Goals: Define your outcomes with sniper accuracy. Eliminate distractions and say “no” to anything that doesn't move you forward. • Surface and Share Your ‘Why': Identify your core motivation by unpacking your pivotal life moments. Let this story fuel your messaging, deepen relationships, and increase client stickiness.

Send us a textUli Bella from Ozomatli stops by the show to discuss the 30 Revolutions Nationwide Tour, the LA raids, mental health, being a caregiver, Richard Simmons and more. ****If the city of Los Angeles had a soundtrack, it would be Ozomatli. Since their formation in 1995, the six-piece, multi-genre band has been a cultural force, blending Latin, hip-hop, funk, reggae, and global influences into an unmistakable sound that embodies the energy and diversity of LA. In 2025, Ozomatli celebrates an incredible milestone: 30 years of bringing their dynamic, genre-defying music to audiences around the world.To mark the occasion, Summer 2025 kicks off their 30 Revolutions Nationwide Tour, a celebration of three decades of music, community, and culture.Emerging from the politically charged streets of Los Angeles, Ozomatli's origins are steeped in activism and a desire to unite communities through music. This ethos has carried the band across three decades, earning them a dedicated global following and accolades that include three GRAMMY® Awards, iconic performances at the Hollywood Bowl, a TED Talk, and countless shows worldwide. From high-profile TV appearances on The Today Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and Austin City Limits to groundbreaking tours in places like Burma and Mongolia, Ozomatli's music and message transcend borders, languages, and cultures.The ensemble's six founding members—Asdru Sierra (vocals, trumpet), Raul Pacheco (vocals, guitars), Uli Bella (saxophone, vocals), Wil-Dog Abers (bass), Jiro Yamaguchi (percussion), and Justin Poree (vocals, percussion)—have remained true to their mantra: "We take you around the world through the heartbeat of Los Angeles." Their music is a vibrant collision of styles, drawing from salsa, dancehall, cumbia, samba, funk, merengue, New Orleans second line, Jamaican ragga, and Indian raga. This eclecticism is at the heart of their sound, resonating with audiences of all ages and backgrounds.Ozomatli's legacy extends far beyond their music. Known for their tireless community involvement, the band has used their platform to amplify causes that matter, from immigrant rights to education and beyond. Their ability to combine socially conscious lyrics with infectious grooves has made them a beacon of unity and resilience, a band that celebrates life while addressing the struggles that connect us all.Their 30th anniversary is not just a celebration of longevity but also a testament to their enduring relevance and innovation. With a career that began with their groundbreaking 1998 self-titled debut, they continue to evolve and inspire. Whether performing new material or beloved classics, Ozomatli's live shows remain a jubilant experience, igniting dance floors and uniting communities.As they embark on their fourth decade, Ozomatli stands as a symbol of Los Angeles' past, present, and future—a band whose music is as multifaceted and vibrant as the city they call home. Here's to 30 years of Ozomatli, and the next chapter in their global musical journey.****If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

Many years ago, Jodie Jackson found herself in a deep depression. As she worked to identify the causes her deteriorating mental health, she realized it had a lot to do with her excessive and indiscriminate consumption of news and information. In the years since, she's become a recognized expert on media literacy and a passionate advocate for understanding and managing our intake of news to protect our mental health.

This week, we're revisiting one of our most compelling conversations—with Damien Riehl, a technology lawyer, coder, and thought leader at the intersection of law and innovation. At the time of our conversation, Damien was vice president and Solutions Champion at vLex. vLex recently made headlines with its acquisition by Clio, which is a move that signals a new chapter in the evolution of legal technology. So, we thought now is an apt time to replay this conversation with Damien. His career has spanned roles at Thomson, Reuters, Fastcase, and the SALI Alliance. Our discussion touched on a wide range of topics: his early experience as a tech attorney, the complexities of confidentiality and legal AI, music copyright, and the enduring value of a liberal arts education. We hope you enjoy this encore episode as much as we did. Our guest today is Damien Riehl, vice president and Solutions Champion at vLex, a platform using artificial intelligence solutions to streamline workflows and provide lawyers with greater access to knowledge and resources. Damien was a tech attorney for more than 10 years when he made the leap to Thomson Reuters as Senior Product Strategist, where he developed innovative legal technology involving artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing. Inspired by Ed Walters' efforts to democratize the law, Damien later joined Fastcase, where he served various roles building out legal tools and systems. In his current position at vLex, Damien helps lead the design, development, and expansion of products. Additionally, Damien is part of the leadership team at the Standards Advancement for the Legal Industry (SALI) Alliance. He is also co-founder of All the Music LLC, a project that involved copyrighting 471 billion melodies and placing them in the public domain. In 2019, Damien delivered a TED Talk in which he describes this process and offers a new way to handle copyright infringement lawsuits in music. In today's conversation, Damien discusses vLex's newest product—Vincent AI, his decision to leave practice and join Thomson Reuters, the genesis of All the Music, and the future of teaching legal research.

What if the hardest conversations are actually the gateway to your deepest connections? Megan O'Nan learned this the hard way when she was outed in Mississippi and faced rejection from everyone she loved. Instead of running forever, she came back to heal those relationships and discovered something powerful: when you lead with your vulnerability instead of your defenses, everything changes. In this conversation with Genea, Megan shares the tools that transformed her most painful relationships into her strongest ones. Here's what they explored together:

Welcome back to All The Feelings, the podcast where adulthood means pretending you know how to say sorry and hoping lasagna can fix emotional devastation. This week, Pete and Tommy dissect the modern apology: why “I'm sorry if you were offended” is a disaster, and how real apologies require actual specificity, remorse, and the superhuman courage to say, “Yeah, I messed up.”Then, Pete shares what happens when life hits hard—specifically, the loss of his father—and how sometimes the only thing that makes a dent in the pain is a well-timed pizza, not a well-worded condolence. Turns out, nobody teaches you how to support a grieving friend, and “Let me know if you need anything” is about as helpful as an escape room with no exits. Show up, do something practical, and skip the TED Talk.Stick around for Feeling Friends—your reminder that supporting the show is the easiest emotional win you'll have all week.Become a Feeling Friend!Help us keep the precinct weird: allthefeelings.funGet early access, bonus content, stickers, and the satisfaction of supporting emotional democracy for only $35 a year.

In today's snack, Erin's busting the myth that a mentor is just going to magically appear and fix everything. The Problem: We've all heard it—“You need a mentor!” But asking for one feels like proposing after two dates. We freeze, wait, and convince ourselves no one has time for us. The Improv Hack to Try: The Spotlight Flip Instead of waiting for someone to spotlight you, flip the light on THEM. Next time you meet someone you admire, ask: "I love how you [specific thing]. If you were giving a TED Talk to your younger self, what would it be about?" No pressure, just pure curiosity. Why it works: In improv, making others look good builds trust. Spotlighting someone makes them more likely to engage with you, so mentorship might follow naturally. Bonus Tip: Mentorship isn't always formal. Keep a list of “unofficial mentors” to learn from passively. Wednesday Tease: Catch Episode 298 this Wednesday: Stop Waiting for a Mentor to Magically Appear—Start Here Instead. Don't miss it!
