We treat productivity like a competitive sport, measuring our worth in how many boxes we can tick before lunch. We pack our schedules, worship at the altar of busyness, and then wonder why we're exhausted all the time. In this episode, I break down why our obsession with productivity might actually be making us worse at it.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Starting something new sounds simple… until you realize you've spent three weeks researching which $2,000 camera is absolutely essential before you can upload your first YouTube video.

In this episode I am speaking about contempt. I am sure you see evidence of it like I do when you look around the world and the way we are all interacting with one another in 2025.What you might not be aware of is that the way we treat one another stems from our subconscious programming and that we can actually change that if we are inspired. I share with you what I have learned about contempt in intimate relationships from author and therapist Terrence Real who wrote the book US. I also share with you what I have learned from Tim Shriver who founded an organization called UNITE that created the Dignity Index, which measures how we treat one another with contempt when we disagree.At the end of the day, our relationships and how we show up to everybody in the world means everything. I hope you take time to listen to this episode because the quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives.Here is the link to Terrence Real's book US: Getting Past You & Me to Build a More Loving Relationshiphttps://www.amazon.com/Us-Getting-Build-Loving-Relationship/dp/0593233670Click on the platform of your choice to listen to the latest podcast episode, follow the podcast, and write a review so we can spread the news and reach more people!  Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-power-of-community-collaboration-in-sb-podcast/id1548758744Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/4RWxW7Ni1EHTAywriOwY9z?si=d9c181834529414dGoogle Podcasts https://podcasts.google.com/search/The%20Brain%20BS%20PodcastAmazon Music https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/09208f98-6c21-4fea-abbf-14a495cabd09/the-brain-bs-podcast-learning-to-live-consciouslyI Heart Radiohttps://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-brain-bs-podcast-learn-76710324/Pandorahttps://www.pandora.com/podcast/the-brain-bs-podcast-learning-to-live-consciously/PC:60845  If you want to get in touch with me or connect to get creative about a collaboration, click on the link below.https://www.thebrainbs.com/

Remember when summer felt like it lasted forever and your biggest problem was deciding between riding your bike or eating a popsicle? Yeah… me neither. These days, time feels like it's on fast-forward, and no matter how many productivity hacks or morning routines we try, the days keep flying by. In this episode, I dive into why our perception of time changes as we get older, and more importantly, what we can do to slow it down.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Do you wake up feeling like you got hit by a bus, drag through the day in a low-energy fog, and wonder why coffee doesn't seem to help anymore? I've been there. After months of overthinking, self-experimentation, and blaming everything from gluten to the alignment of the stars, I finally realized the truth: I was skipping the basics.

For years, I bought into the hustle culture lie: work harder, do more, and success will follow. But after cutting my schedule in half and focusing on fewer, higher-impact tasks, I discovered something surprising: slowing down actually amplified my creativity, focus, and results. In this episode, I unpack how lowering the bar, embracing slow productivity, and letting go of unnecessary expectations saved my sanity and helped me produce better work.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Most of us live as if we just plan hard enough, we'll finally “figure it all out.” The perfect calendar, the flawless morning routine, the 5-year plan, detailed down to what socks we'll wear on Thursdays. But life doesn't work that way. I learned this seven hours and forty minutes into the hardest Spartan race in the world, after thirty obstacles, thousands of feet of elevation, and more burpees than any human should endure. In this episode, I share why certainty is an illusion, how over-planning becomes procrastination, and why clarity doesn't come from thinking.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and RCP White House correspondent Phil Wegmann discuss the reaction to the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel from ABC, and the role that FCC Chairman Brendan Carr and President Trump have played in the network's decision. Then, they talk about President Trump's announcement from the UK that he will designate Antifa as a major terrorist group, and what that may mean at the Justice Department and the FBI going forward. Plus, they discuss today's excerpt from Kamala Harris' forthcoming book published by the Atlantic, in which she says Pete Buttigieg was her first choice as running mate, but thought that pairing a gay man and a black woman on the presidential ticket “was too big of a risk". Then finally, Carl Cannon talks with Tim Shriver, founder and CEO of UNITE and co-creator of the Dignity Index, about how to regain civility in our public discourse.

Most people ease into challenges. A 5K. Maybe a 10K. I skipped all that and went straight for the hardest Spartan race in the world: 21K, thirty obstacles, seven thousand feet of elevation, and a whole lot of burpees if I failed. In this episode, I break down six months of training, the gear I tested, and what this race taught me about discipline, minimalism, and saying “yes” before fear talks you out of it.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

We've all been told to set big goals. Run a marathon. Write a book. Launch a YouTube channel by June (still waiting on that one). The idea is simple: dream big, chase it, and life will magically fall into place. But here's the problem: goals often do the exact opposite. They pile on guilt, create impossible deadlines, and leave you wondering if your treadmill is just a $1,200 clothing rack. In this episode, I break down why goals might be holding you back and what actually works better.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

For years, I thought the goal in life was to be happy. All the time. If I wasn't smiling, laughing, or journaling about gratitude while sipping my $7 oat latte, something was broken. So I stacked every hack I could find: affirmations, meditation, cold showers. Once, I even did them all before 9 am, like I was auditioning for a self-help infomercial. And guess what? I felt worse. In this episode, I break down why chasing happiness 24/7 is the fastest way to feel miserable, why “good vibes only” culture backfires, and what it really means to live a good life.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Ask someone how they're doing, and odds are they'll say, “Busy.” At some point, busyness became the ultimate adult humble brag, like flashing your Pokémon card collection, but with Google Calendar invites.

We all know the drill: the alarm blares, you hit snooze, and somehow the day has already started on the wrong foot. So I decided to see what would happen if I quit my alarm clock for an entire month.

We all want to get better, but where do you even start? Last week, I broke down the worst habits, the ones guaranteed to make your life a dumpster fire. So naturally, this week I'm flipping the script. In this episode, I rank the best habits for self-improvement, or at least the ones Instagram swears will change your life.

We all have habits that shape our lives, some helpful, some… not so much. In this episode, I rank the worst possible habits in a tier list, diving into what makes them truly destructive, why we keep falling for them, and what that says about the way we live.

We live in the most connected time in human history, video calls across the world, instant messages, and same-day delivery for just about anything we want. And yet we've also become the loneliest society ever. How did that happen?

Intermittent fasting isn't a diet; it's about when you eat, not what you eat. For the last two years, I've been unintentionally doing a 16-hour fast every day. I didn't plan it, and I definitely didn't expect it to stick. So I decided to dive into the latest science and expert opinions to see what's really going on.

I love organization. Maybe it's the minimalist in me, or the perfectionist, but there's something deeply satisfying about turning chaos into order. The problem is, most organizing advice online seems designed for people with infinite time, money, and storage space (and no kids).

At some point, self-care went from drinking water and getting enough sleep to sticking coffee where the sun doesn't shine. Literally. The global self-care market ballooned from $10 billion in 2014 to over $450 billion by 2020, and along the way, wellness became a full-time job. From 4:30 a.m. wake-ups to skincare routines that require a chemistry degree, we've officially overcomplicated the art of taking care of ourselves.

Most productivity advice focuses on fancy apps, hacks, or endless to-do lists. But real productivity? It's about understanding how we actually work, the traps we fall into, and setting up simple rules that help you get real work done without the burnout.

Ever feel like your brain just isn't working the way it should? Like you're stuck in dumb dumb mode and can't quite get yourself unstuck?

In this episode, I break down the seven steps that helped me go from feeling like a hot mess express to, well, slightly less of a mess.

It's been five years since I first called myself a minimalist. A lot has changed since then: my work, my family, and how I see the world. In this episode, I reflect on why I still choose minimalism, even when life gets messy, why it remains one of the most powerful tools I have to keep things simple, and how one simple question continues to keep me grounded in what matters most.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde is a leading voice in modern faith leadership and the first woman elected to serve as Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, a role she's held since 2011. While the job isn't always glamorous, she says, the sacred moments in the public eye matter deeply—and she treats them with care. Bishop Budde gained national attention for boldly speaking out against the Trump administration, including condemning the 2020 photo-op at St. John's Episcopal Church and, more recently, offering a prayer for LGBTQ+ justice with President Trump and Vice President Vance seated before her. Her calm, courageous leadership has made her one of the most trusted voices in public faith today. In this conversation with Jen, Bishop Budde shares her journey from a small Minnesota congregation to the national stage—and how she finds the courage to speak truth to power and stand with the marginalized, even when the cost is high. Thought-provoking Quotes: “I think, in some ways, vocations choose you as much as you choose them.” – Mariann Edgar Budde “It's not as if the world stopped on January 21st. So much is happening every single day and there are consequences to the decisions being made.” – Mariann Edgar Budde “I wouldn't have chosen the way they're going, but a lot is being dismantled right now and we've got to be there to help rebuild.”  – Mariann Edgar Budde Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Raygun: Bishop Budde Fan Club T-Shirt - https://www.raygunsite.com/products/bishop-budde-fan-club Receiving Jesus: The Way of Love by Mariann Edgar Budde - https://amzn.to/45GO5jh How We Learn to Be Brave: Decisive Moments in Life and Faith by Mariann Edgar Budde - https://amzn.to/4kbZtan Sermon by The Right Rev.

We all do it. That task you've been avoiding? Still there. That thing you told yourself you'd start tomorrow? Welcome to tomorrow. We like to think procrastination is just laziness, but it's usually something deeper. A hidden fear, a mental block, or maybe just a really well-organized form of avoidance.

I used to scribble notes everywhere, Post-its, Google Docs, notes app, my hand, and then wonder why I couldn't find anything when I actually needed it.

Have you ever wanted to just start over, to hit control, alt, delete on your life and start from scratch? A few years ago, my wife Mel and I asked ourselves a terrifying question: What if we let it all go and started over? The answer sent us down an unexpected path, one that taught us a lot about freedom, burnout, and the science of change.

Motivation is often treated like this mysterious, elusive force, something you wait for, something that magically appears before you finally take action. But what if that's exactly backward?

Your twenties are supposed to be “the best years of your life,” right? But no one tells you how confusing, overwhelming, and straight-up weird they can be. There are things we only learn the hard way, sometimes after a few missteps, sometimes after a full-on identity crisis in a grocery store parking lot.

We've all met that person, the one who's two green smoothies deep into the new year and already telling everyone how their “new routine” is going to change their life. But the problem is that talking about your goals can feel almost as good as achieving them. And that's exactly the trap.

Have you ever sat down to get something done and felt like your brain forgot to show up to the meeting? Like there's a thick haze between you and your thoughts, sluggish, scattered, stuck in neutral? Yeah… same. Brain fog isn't just a quirky phrase, it's a real, frustrating state that creeps in quietly and overstays its welcome. And in a world built to hijack your focus and drain your energy, it's no surprise that so many of us are experiencing it. In this episode, I dig into three surprisingly overlooked reasons you might be stuck in the fog, three practical ways to cut through it, and why the fix might not be another productivity hack or nootropic supplement.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comEpisode resources:Rewiring Your Brain For FocusThis episode is brought to you by:TonalLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

There are moments when sitting down to do something meaningful feels physically uncomfortable, like your brain is actively protesting. You open your laptop with the best intentions, and five minutes later, you're in a black hole of browser tabs, group chats, and a suspicious number of snack breaks. Why is it so hard to focus, especially on the stuff that actually matters?

Most self-help advice makes me cringe. Vision boards, “manifesting,” and the whole daily affirmation thing? Yeah, I've always put that in the woo-woo category. But lately, I've been stuck in my head, wrestling with self-doubt, perfectionism, and the classic case of overthinking everything. So I decided to try something that made me deeply uncomfortable: staring at myself in the mirror and saying things like “I am enough.” And no, I didn't spontaneously combust from secondhand embarrassment. In this episode, I test daily affirmations for a week, even the corny ones, and rope my wife into writing a few that are, well, questionable at best.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Ever stared at your to-do list and felt like it was staring back, daring you to make the first move? You're not lazy. Your brain's just doing what it was built to do: avoid discomfort, conserve energy, and protect you from anything that feels even slightly threatening, like starting that massive project you've been putting off for months.

When I launched this podcast six years ago, I imagined big things: millions of downloads, awards, and overnight success. But that's not what happened. Instead, I got eight downloads. And no, that's not a metaphor. In this episode, I share what actually kept me going when no one was listening. It wasn't hustle. It wasn't motivation.

I love to travel. And I also kind of hate it. On one hand, you're soaking in new cultures, trying unfamiliar foods, and pushing your comfort zone in all the right ways.
