Some seasons of life just happen to you. The trip gets cancelled. The diagnosis lands. The person you love is suddenly gone - and none of it is fair, and none of it is yours to fix. That feeling - like life is happening to you and you've got no say in it - is, to me, the worst feeling of all. So this week I'm sharing one question I've reached for in my hardest, loneliest, most unfair moments. From my first year in America, crying in an empty apartment, through losing my sister - and through this past year, losing Mum. It's not "stay positive." It's not a silver lining. It's something far more useful, and every time I ask it, it hands me back my sense of agency. I open with a quote from one of my greatest teachers, Dr Viktor Frankl, that completely changed my relationship with life - and then I walk you through exactly how I used this question to climb out of helplessness during one of the loneliest stretches I've lived through. By the end you'll have a simple exercise to do on your own - so you're not just listening this week, you're participating. Grab a pen or your notesapp. Let's get into it.

Sometimes the most powerful tool isn't doing more—it's pausing before you react. Episode #263

"The most depressed, anxious, addicted, and self-destructive generation in American culture—we created this world." In this episode, Matt Bradley (Partnership Manager at WhyFire and Editor of The Fire Time Magazine) makes a provocative argument from his 2026 HPBExpo class: the reason you can't hire or inspire young workers isn't pay, schedules, or time off—it's a culture that's stripped them of meaning. He traces the problem back to Nietzsche and offers an ancient antidote. In this episode, Matt covers: - Why higher pay, flexible schedules, and more paid time off won't fix your hiring problem—and what young people actually crave instead. - The "fortitude formula"—moral purpose times sources of strength—and how Viktor Frankl found meaning in a concentration camp. - Concrete interview questions and shop-floor practices that work, including why you should drop the sarcasm and never assume Gen Z is lazy. Don't miss this one if you've ever caught yourself blaming "kids these days"—Matt argues that mindset is just an easy way to let yourself off the hook, and he hands you a practical playbook to mentor the most capable hires you've been overlooking. —— Links from this episode: WhyFire Fireplace AI Visualizer http://whyfire.com —— Watch this podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/nBRD5lY_m7k Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fire-time-podcast/id1433804268 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4vHdzg48bE5qFf0KjMeMej?si=7b6cae3923d348f2 Read The Fire Time Magazine: https://www.itsfiretime.com/magazine Subscribe to The Fire Time Magazine: https://itsfiretime.com/subscribe Support The Fire Time Podcast financially: https://www.itsfiretime.com/join

En esta ocasión, el programa pone el foco en la salud mental, la vulnerabilidad humana y la capacidad de seguir adelante tras los momentos más difíciles de la vida. Dirigido y presentado por Rosa Vidal, y Bajo el título “Las heridas que nadie ve: la salud mental y la valentía de seguir adelante”, el espacio invita a reflexionar sobre una realidad que afecta a millones de personas y que, durante mucho tiempo, ha permanecido oculta tras el silencio, los prejuicios o la dificultad para expresar el sufrimiento emocional. A lo largo del programa, Rosa Vidal Ross aborda cuestiones como la tristeza profunda, la ansiedad, la incertidumbre, la frustración o la pérdida de ilusión que pueden aparecer en determinadas etapas vitales. También reflexiona sobre la importancia de aceptar la vulnerabilidad como parte de la condición humana, aprender a cerrar ciclos, pedir ayuda cuando es necesario y encontrar nuevas formas de avanzar. La conversación se apoya en las enseñanzas del psiquiatra y filósofo Viktor Frankl, que defendía la capacidad del ser humano para encontrar sentido incluso en las circunstancias más difíciles. Una reflexión que resume una de las ideas centrales del programa: «Cuando ya no podemos cambiar una situación, tenemos el desafío de cambiarnos a nosotros mismos». ‘Siempre nos quedará París' reivindica la importancia de cuidar la salud mental con la misma atención que se presta a la salud física y recuerda que atravesar momentos de oscuridad no significa permanecer en ellos para siempre. Un mensaje de esperanza que pone en valor la resiliencia, el acompañamiento y la posibilidad de volver a empezar.

Why does manifestation that comes in fast so often leave just as fast? In this episode of Spiritualised, Jess Fenton explores the unintegrated masculine, the hidden driver behind impatient manifestation, financial burnout, and the ceiling many spiritual entrepreneurs hit around the seven-figure mark.What you'll learn:The feminine wants things now. The masculine has a healthy relationship with time, patience, structure, and the long view. When that inner masculine (animus) isn't integrated, business and money manifestation gets built on urgency instead of foundation, and what comes in quickly tends to leave just as quickly.Jess connects this to a deeper pattern: our urgency around manifestation is often fear of death in disguise, the sense that if we don't get what we want right now, we'll run out of time to enjoy it. She brings in Viktor Frankl's observations from the concentration camps, where prisoners expecting quick rescue often didn't survive as well as those who settled into the long timeline, as a powerful illustration of why patience regulates the nervous system and tension blocks manifestation.She also names a pattern specific to women in spiritual business: hitting a wall around one to one and a half million in revenue, after building everything on feminine excitement and activation with no masculine structure underneath. The fix isn't less feminine energy. It's giving the inner masculine a job: protecting, providing, planning for legacy, and doing the unglamorous compounding work, so the feminine doesn't have to stay switched on forever to keep money flowing.In this episode:Why collapsing your manifestation timeline can create results built on quicksand. The real link between urgency, fear of death, and your relationship with time. What Viktor Frankl's research reveals about hope, patience, and endurance. Why so many spiritual businesses stall or collapse around the seven-figure mark. What true rest actually means (hint: it isn't your weekend off). How integrating the inner masculine and inner feminine changes your nervous system, your money, and your relationships.www.goinward.co.ukwww.instagram.com/goinward

Just a few months ago, I felt like giving up. I thought, "This is it! Time to throw in the towel and start looking for tech jobs again!" I was losing hundreds of followers a day, and I didn't know what to do about it. I almost gave up. But then I thought about my WHY.   Your why is what will help you keep moving forward. We know this! Our parents have crossed deserts, endured demeaning jobs, and put their children before themselves, all so that the next generation could have a better life. WE were their WHY. And now that we're in a better place, we can start thinking about our why, too.    In this week's episode, we're talking about what to do when you want to give up. Giving up is not an option. We (or at least most of my listeners) are Latina. We are resilient; it's literally in our blood. Now that that is established, how do we get back up after we've been kicked down? I think I figured it out. I've got the results, and I'm sharing them with you in this week's episode of the Chingona Revolution Podcast!

Everybody wants deeper friendships, stronger relationships and a greater sense of belonging. The problem is that most people are searching for connection in comfort, when connection is often forged through challenge.In this episode, Glenn explores why shared hardship creates stronger bonds than convenience ever could, drawing on lessons from the Army, Kokoda, the Youngcare Aussie 10 Peaks Challenge and decades of leadership experience. Supported by insights from Viktor Frankl, Émile Durkheim and modern psychology, this episode will challenge the way you think about friendship, community and personal growth.Key Takeaways Hard roads lead to tight circles. Comfort creates acquaintances. Hardship creates family. The struggle is where trust is earned. Shared hardship accelerates connection. Meaning transforms suffering into growth. Shared identity creates lasting friendships. The view means more when you climbed it together. Stop looking for connection. Start looking for challenge. Go and do hard things with good people.

Diese Folge ist einer der beeindruckendsten Persönlichkeiten des 20. Jahrhunderts gewidmet: dem Neurologen, Psychiater und Begründer der Logotherapie Viktor Frankl. Geprägt von den Erfahrungen der Konzentrationslager entwickelte Frankl eine Philosophie, die den Menschen nicht als Opfer seiner Umstände versteht, sondern als Wesen, das selbst unter schwierigsten Bedingungen die Freiheit besitzt, Haltung zu wählen und Verantwortung zu übernehmen. Im Zentrum seines Denkens steht dabei nicht das Streben nach Glück, Erfolg oder Lust, sondern die Frage nach dem Sinn. Albert und Jan sprechen darüber, warum Sinn für Frankl wichtiger ist als Glück, weshalb Freiheit immer auch Verantwortung bedeutet und wie Menschen selbst in Leid und Krisen Orientierung finden können. Sie diskutieren, ob wir heute eher unter Sinnlosigkeit oder unter einer Überfülle an Möglichkeiten leiden, warum Wohlstand allein kein erfülltes Leben garantiert und was Frankls Denken für eine Zeit von Social Media, Selbstoptimierung und Dauervergleich bedeuten kann. Eine Folge über Freiheit, Verantwortung und die vielleicht wichtigste Frage unseres Lebens: Wofür lohnt es sich zu leben?

Peptides are everywhere. Ozempic won't leave the headlines. And social media seems determined to convince us that the next health breakthrough is only one purchase away. So what's actually worth paying attention to? In this episode, Danielle welcomes celebrity trainer, nutrition scientist, and bestselling author Harley Pasternak for an unfiltered conversation about the biggest wellness trends dominating the internet right now. From peptides and Ozempic to detoxes, supplements, fiber-maxxing, and celebrity health culture, Harley breaks down what's backed by science, what's overhyped, and what's potentially dangerous. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Harley says most peptides being promoted online are essentially an uncontrolled experiment on human beings The surprising reason he trusts Ozempic and GLP-1s, but remains deeply skeptical of most other peptides The scary reality of what's actually being found inside many peptides sold online Why "Big Pharma doesn't want you to know" is often a red flag, not a revelation The wellness trend Harley says has absolutely no evidence behind it How social media created a generation of people taking supplements they can't explain Why Harley changed his mind about Ozempic after years of opposing it The concept of "food noise" and what GLP-1s may actually be doing inside the brain The shocking reason Harley walked away from The Biggest Loser before it became a hit Why focusing on weight loss can make you less healthy (and what to focus on instead) The Viktor Frankl quote that completely changed Harley's approach to health, happiness, and success The lesson about weight loss that most busy people miss Why intermittent fasting may be a lot less revolutionary than you've been led to believe The one form of exercise Harley believes every woman should prioritize—even if she hates it What working with Jessica Simpson, Megan Fox, Halle Berry, and the Kardashians taught Harley about discipline and success In a world obsessed with hacks, shortcuts, and miracle solutions, what Harley says actually works Make sure to follow Harley on Instagram @harleypasternak Check out Harley’s latest book The Carb Reset hereSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A few years back, I was feeling so off — so stuck, so lost — that I ended up working with a shaman. I had a bowl of water with salt, herbs, and candles sitting under my bed. My husband walked in and called it salad.   I'm not making this up.   Here's the thing — I did feel better. But my business still wasn't working. Because I was looking at every external thing I could possibly fix and completely missing the one thing that actually needed my attention. Me.   In this episode, I'm getting into something I've been feeling myself lately — and hearing from a lot of people around me. That off feeling. Not knowing what's next. The doubt that creeps in. The habit of blaming the calendar, the costs, the team, the circumstances. And I'm sharing what my mentor said to me that stopped me cold.   You don't need to figure out who you are. You just need to decide.   We talk about how self-doubt hides underneath all that external blame, how your character gets revealed in the hardest moments — not built, revealed — and the question you need to sit with: are you the director of your life, or are you just along for the ride?   We also get into Viktor Frankl and Man's Search for Meaning, because even in the most extreme circumstances imaginable, the one thing no one can take from you is the choice of how you show up.   If you've been feeling off, this one's for you. The answer isn't outside you. It never was.   Key Takeaways: • Self-doubt is hiding underneath all that external blame — the economy, the team, the calendar. The real problem isn't them. It's the story you're telling yourself about what's possible. • You don't need to spend more time figuring out who you are. You need to decide who you are — and then show up as her every single day, even when it's hard. • Character isn't something you have. It's something that gets revealed in moments of challenge and obstacle. How you show up right now is your character being shown to the world. • The circumstances — costs up, people leaving, payroll pressure — those are always going to be there. They show up in different forms. The question is whether you're letting them dictate your belief in yourself. • You can't control the outcome. But you always have control over how you show up in every single moment. That choice is always yours. • Summoning who you are throughout the day isn't soft. It's the thing that actually moves the needle. 'I am the person who...' — repeated even when stuff hits the fan — is what keeps the progress going. • When you decide who you are and how you're going to show up, your team feels it. Projects get done. Opportunities open up. Things start to flow.   Timestamps / Chapter Markers: 00:02   The question that opens everything 02:26   What happened when Theresa worked with a shaman 03:15   'I felt better — but I didn't figure out the business part of it' 04:00   The real diagnosis: it's not an external problem 05:30   'I feel off because I'm too busy' — the chaos loop 07:00   What the real problem is 08:15   What happens when big goals meet self-doubt 09:25   Theresa audits herself — and the whoa moment she didn't see coming 10:30   The morning routine that falls apart with one phone call 11:00   When someone suddenly quits 11:51   Who do you need to become in order to actually achieve these things? 13:00   How it manifests: disengagement, broken follow-through, everything on the back burner 13:58   Circumstances, challenges, obstacles — they're always going to be there. Always. 14:30   Viktor Frankl and Man's Search for Meaning — the one freedom no one can take 15:30   Setting a higher standard for yourself so your team rises to meet it 16:17   Stop. Think. Ask yourself the real question. 17:15   'I am the person who...' 17:45   Opportunities open when you stop white knuckling the outcome   If you heard yourself somewhere in this conversation, share it with someone who needs it. A fellow founder, a leader on your team, a friend who's been feeling off and can't quite name it.   We don't always know how to say, 'I'm struggling,' but sometimes we can hand someone a podcast episode and say, listen to this.   READY TO UNCOVER THE BLIND SPOT HURTING YOUR SMALL BUSINESS?

Ceci est un épisode Solo et donc une lecture de ma newsletter à laquelle vous pouvez vous abonner juste ici - Je vous invite également à participer à ma cagnotte sur Tipeee, c'est juste là.j'ai beaucoup approché ce sujet sans jamais en parler directement alors dans cet épisode, je parle de l'épuisement systémique, pas de fatigue passagère. J'interroge l'incertitude comme carburant silencieux de notre surcharge cognitive, l'accélération décrite par Hartmut Rosa, la pression financière documentée par Antoine Foucher, le capitalisme de la jouissance analysé par Michel Clouscard, la machine à attention qui se nourrit de notre peur, et l'isolement silencieux de nos grandes villes. J'ai questionné aussi le grand mensonge de la productivité, et ce que Viktor Frankl, Pablo Servigne, Byung Chul Han et Olivier Hamant ont chacun à nous dire sur comment traverser ça sans se noyer. Et je finis par trois directions concrètes, pas des solutions miracles, juste des pas de côté qui permettent de ne pas s'épuiser à nager à contre-courant.Citations marquantes"Notre réponse à l'épuisement est presque toujours la même : on essaie de trouver une méthode pour optimiser. Et c'est là que ça devient pathétique, parce que même ceux qui veulent ralentir adorent une méthode pour le faire rapidement.""L'amygdale ne fait pas vraiment la différence entre 'un lion va me dévorer' et 'je ne sais pas ce qui va se passer dans six mois avec mon boulot, mon loyer, la géopolitique, l'IA ou le prix de l'énergie.' Les deux produisent de l'épuisement.""On n'a jamais été aussi optimisé et pourtant on n'a jamais eu aussi peu de temps.""L'ennui est biologiquement plus proche de l'énergie que de la léthargie. Le vide n'est pas un problème à remplir, c'est une condition nécessaire à la pensée profonde.""L'épuisement que vous ressentez n'est pas une faiblesse. C'est une réponse rationnelle à un système qui n'est pas conçu pour l'humain."Idées centrales 1. L'épuisement est systémique, pas personnel Ce n'est pas parce que vous êtes mal organisé ou pas assez zen. Nous sommes collectivement victimes d'un système qui n'est pas conçu pour l'humain, avec des ressources inégales pour y faire face. L'individualiser, c'est exactement ce que le système veut qu'on fasse. [~03:00]2. Notre cerveau est une machine à prédire coincée dans un monde imprévisible Pendant des millions d'années, l'anticipation était une question de survie. Aujourd'hui, cette même mécanique tourne en surchauffe permanente face à des menaces diffuses et globales qu'elle ne peut ni identifier clairement ni neutraliser. C'est là que commence l'épuisement, bien avant le surmenage. [~06:30]3. Trois accélérations simultanées qui se renforcent Hartmut Rosa distingue l'accélération technique, l'accélération du changement social et l'accélération du rythme de vie lui-même. Nous vivons les trois en même temps, sans jamais avoir le temps de nous adapter à l'une avant que la suivante arrive. [~12:00]4. La productivité vendue comme remède est souvent une cause supplémentaire L'ennui n'est pas de la paresse, c'est une émotion fonctionnelle qui prépare biologiquement le corps à l'action et ouvre la porte à la créativité. Remplir chaque vide par une stimulation externe, c'est se priver de la condition nécessaire à la pensée profonde. [~22:00]5. Le contrat du travail est rompu, et on fait semblant de ne pas le voir Pendant les Trente Glorieuses, on doublait son niveau de vie en 15 ans. Aujourd'hui, il faut 84 ans, soit deux vies de travail. Ce n'est pas une opinion, c'est documenté. Et continuer à courir plus vite dans ce contexte s'appelle de l'épuisement par définition. [~17:00]6. Nager en perpendiculaire plutôt qu'à contre-courant Résister frontalement épuise. Comme dans une baïne, la bonne réponse n'est pas de nager vers la plage mais à la perpendiculaire. Silence, soutien, sens : trois mouvements latéraux qui permettent de sortir sans s'y laisser noyer. [~28:00]Questions structurantes de l'épisodePourquoi notre réponse instinctive à l'épuisement est-elle toujours de chercher une méthode pour l'optimiser ?En quoi l'incertitude du monde contemporain active-t-elle les mêmes mécanismes que la menace physique dans notre cerveau ?Qu'est-ce que Hartmut Rosa entend exactement par "immobilisme frénétique" et en quoi ça décrit notre condition ?Comment le passage de la "société disciplinaire" de Foucault à la "société de la performance" a-t-il transformé la domination en auto-exploitation ?Pourquoi les médias et les algorithmes ont-ils intérêt à nous maintenir dans la peur plutôt que dans la réalité des chiffres ?Ce que nous avons sacrifié à vivre en grande ville mérite-t-il vraiment qu'on ne le questionne pas ?L'ennui est-il vraiment une ressource productive que l'on a collectivement décidé de détruire ?Comment Viktor Frankl trouvait-il du sens dans les camps de concentration, et qu'est-ce que ça nous dit sur notre propre rapport à l'adversité ?En quoi la "résonance" de Rosa est-elle incompatible avec le contrôle et la performance ?Qu'est-ce que vous faites parce que vous en avez envie, et qu'est-ce que vous faites parce que vous avez peur de ne pas le faire ?Références citéesPersonnesPablo Servigne (chercheur sur l'effondrement, invité de Vlan!) : "La vie danse toujours au bord du chaos. L'inverse du chaos, c'est la mort."

[~21:00]SourcesCentre d'observation de la société : données sur l'évolution de l'insécurité en France [~24:00]Timestamps clés (optimisés YouTube)00:00 - Le bracelet connecté et le piège de l'optimisation J'ai voulu mieux écouter mon corps. J'ai obtenu un tableau de bord qui me disait si je méritais d'être fatigué. La réponse à l'épuisement est presque toujours la même : trouver une méthode. Et c'est là que tout déraille.03:00 - L'épuisement n'est pas un problème personnel Ce n'est pas parce que vous êtes mal organisé ou pas assez zen. C'est un épuisement systémique, dont nous sommes tous victimes à des degrés divers. L'industrie du développement personnel, 1.500 milliards de dollars, s'est construite exactement sur ce mensonge.05:30 - Pablo Servigne et le chaos comme condition du vivant "L'opposé du chaos, c'est la mort." Si c'est vrai, alors nous ne nous épuisons pas du chaos lui-même, mais de l'énergie colossale que nous dépensons à tenter de le fuir.07:00 - L'amygdale et le lion derrière le rocher Notre cerveau ne distingue pas entre une menace physique et l'incertitude géopolitique, économique ou climatique. Les deux produisent la même mobilisation d'urgence. Répétée sur des années, cette mobilisation s'appelle de l'épuisement.09:00 - L'anxiété cartésienne de Donna Brothers La pensée occidentale a construit un idéal de certitude. Quand on ne le trouve pas, on ne souffre pas de l'incertitude elle-même, mais de la collision entre ce qui est et ce qu'on croit qui devrait être.11:30 - Hartmut Rosa et les trois accélérations Technique, sociale, rythme de vie. Elles se renforcent mutuellement et nous n'avons jamais le temps de nous adapter à l'une avant que la suivante arrive. "On court de plus en plus vite pour rester sur place."16:30 - Le contrat du travail est rompu Pendant les Trente Glorieuses, on doublait son niveau de vie en 15 ans. Aujourd'hui, il faut 84 ans. Deux vies de travail. Ce n'est pas une opinion. C'est la réalité documentée qu'Antoine Foucher résume dans son titre.18:30 - De Foucault à Byung Chul Han : l'auto-exploitation Le passage de "tu dois" à "tu peux" est la mutation la plus insidieuse du système. Nous ne sommes plus soumis à une contrainte externe, mais à une injonction permanente à nous dépasser, au nom de notre liberté.20:00 - Le désir mimétique et Instagram Rousseau l'avait vu avant tout le monde : "on est heureux qu'avant d'être heureux." René Girard a théorisé le reste. Et Instagram est la machine à désir mimétique la plus efficace jamais construite.22:30 - Reed Hastings et le marché de l'attention "Notre plus grand concurrent est le sommeil." Ce marché n'est pas construit sur votre plaisir, mais sur votre peur. Peur de rater, d'être déclassé, d'être moins compétent. Et les médias ont appris à amplifier cette peur parce que ça marche.25:00 - Seuls dans la ville Sherry Turkle, trente ans au MIT : on peut être hyperconnecté et ne jamais vraiment rencontrer personne. Plus une ville est grande, plus elle rend seul. Et chaque interaction avec un inconnu est une donnée qui échappe aux plateformes.27:00 - Le grand mensonge de la productivité L'ennui est biologiquement plus proche de l'énergie que de la léthargie. C'est une émotion fonctionnelle qui prépare le corps à l'action. Remplir chaque vide par une stimulation, c'est se priver de la condition nécessaire à la pensée profonde.29:30 - Olivier Hamant et la robustesse Un arbre ne transforme que 1% de la lumière qu'il capte. Il est en sous-optimal quasi permanent pour pouvoir survivre les jours sans soleil. La nature entière sacrifie la performance pour la robustesse. Notre cerveau aussi.32:00 - Nager en perpendiculaire Résister frontalement épuise. Comme dans une baïne, nager vers la plage est la mauvaise réponse. Nager à la perpendiculaire, c'est aller ni contre ni avec, mais à côté. C'est là que commence la sortie.33:00 - Silence, soutien, sens : trois mouvements latéraux Pas des solutions miracles. Trois directions concrètes pour ne pas se laisser paralyser. Viktor Frankl dans les camps de concentration. Hartmut Rosa et la résonance. Et cette question finale à garder dans un coin de la tête.Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

After a break with family and a slower pace of life, Josh returns with some existential questions, one in particular that's been sitting heavy: Am I conforming to what everyone else around me is doing, or am I "appointing" my time well with the people who need me most? Drawing from Isaiah 43, Psalm 90, and Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, Josh walks through what it looks like to grieve the past well, release the assignments of old, and step fully into the season God has for your family right now. He further unpacks how sweetening retrospect—or nostalgically living in the past—can breed depression, how anxiety about the future keeps us from the present, and why the mundane drive-time moments are shaping the hearts of your children more than you realize. A practical, honest reset if you're catching yourself distracted or not as intentional as you wish you might be.  ** Thank you to Bernhardt Watches for sponsoring this episode!

Was ist der Sinn des Lebens? Zu dieser Frage hielt Viktor Frankl bereits mit 16 Jahren seinen ersten Vortrag. Sie blieb der rote Faden seiner Arbeit. Aus Gesprächen mit Selbstmordkandidatinnen und mit Schülern am Tag der Zeugnisvergabe zog der österreichische Psychiater den Schluss, dass der Mensch über einen "Willen zum Sinn" verfügt und seelisch erkrankt, wenn sein Sinnbedürfnis frustriert wird. Eine Theorie, die er durch die eigenen Erfahrungen in deutschen Konzentrationslagern bestätigt fand. Ein Podcast von Justina Schreiber

In this episode, Mayhew explores one of the most powerful concepts in personal growth: the space between stimulus and response. Drawing on Viktor Frankl's timeless wisdom, he unpacks why so many men live on emotional autopilot - reacting instantly to stress, conflict, pressure, criticism, and uncertainty - and how meditation can help you regain control over your mind, emotions, and behaviour. If you've ever snapped too quickly, overthought a situation for hours, or felt trapped inside your own head, this conversation will give you a completely different perspective.Make the change and book a call with Adam Smith: https://calendly.com/adamsmith-agameconsultancy/meeting-with-adam-smith-a-gameEmail Us: hello@agameconsultancy.comAdam SmithFrom depressed and suicidal to the happiest and fittest he's ever been, Adam Smith's self-development journey hasn't been easy but it has been worth it.

Send us Fan MailMost people spend their entire lives thinking, but very few ever stop to examine the thoughts they're allowing to shape their lives.In this episode, I unpack a powerful lesson from Napoleon Hill that completely changed the way I think about thinking. We dive into the difference between auto-suggestion—where you intentionally select the material that shapes your mind—and suggestion—where you allow other people, circumstances, media, gossip, fear, and limitations to do the thinking for you. You'll discover why your thoughts are the one thing no one can take from you, how outside influences quietly shape your beliefs, and why the quality of your life is often determined by the quality of the thoughts dominating your mind. We also connect these ideas to lessons from Viktor Frankl and explore how thought control may be the closest thing we have to personal freedom. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, uncertain, or stuck in a cycle of reacting rather than creating, this episode will help you bring awareness to what's happening in your head and remind you that you have more control than you think.Because the future you're building starts with the thoughts you're allowing today.The key you've been searching for has been in your hands the whole time. Keep it simple. Keep it moving. Never settle. Stay tough.Support the show

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/ins.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM727_MDM_May16_26.mp3   Hope is not a strategy — and I think most people know this somewhere deep down, but they’ve never stopped to examine what it’s actually costing them. In this episode, I use the extraordinary true story of Ernest Shackleton’s 1915 Antarctic expedition to show exactly what it looks like when a leader refuses to let hope become the plan — and what happens instead.Hope Is Not a Strategy: The Lesson Shackleton Already KnewWhen Shackleton’s ship, The Endurance, became locked in Antarctic ice in 1915, there was no rescue coming. No technology. No timeline. What he understood — and what Viktor Frankl later documented in Man’s Search for Meaning — is that people who attach their emotional survival to a hoped-for outcome are the most fragile people in the room. Frankl could identify the prisoners who would die first in the concentration camps. They were the ones who had pinned everything to a specific date — Christmas, a promised release. When that date passed, they fell apart. So did Shackleton’s carpenter, who began to spread dissent among the crew. Shackleton stopped it immediately. He understood that one person’s emotional collapse, if left unchecked, could kill everyone. The lesson isn’t that hope is bad. It’s that hope as your primary psychological strategy is dangerous. It keeps you on the edge of fear — one disappointment away from crashing. Hope Is Not a Strategy — Present-Moment Living IsWhat Shackleton’s crew did instead is something I’ve watched the most successful people I’ve ever coached do in their own lives. They didn’t just survive Antarctica — they lived there. They played football on the ice. They put on theatrical performances. They took care of their sled dogs. They chose to make the experience of being where they were as full and human as possible, while using the goal of getting home as direction — not salvation. I see this same pattern play out for entrepreneurs and business owners every week. When a sale falls through, when the numbers don’t match the picture in your head, when you get a bad review or a rejection — the people relying on hope crash. The people living fully in the moment, with understanding and awareness instead of hope, stay stable. That stability is what keeps your frequency aligned with what you’re building. When your emotions drop, your vibration drops, and you begin attracting more of what you don’t want. What Disappointment Is Really Telling YouDisappointment is a hidden expectation. Every time you feel it, it’s a signal that somewhere underneath, you were relying on a specific outcome to be okay. That’s hope doing its quiet damage. The shift I’m teaching here is from hope to understanding — from ‘I’m surviving until things change’ to ‘I’m fully alive in what is, while moving toward what’s next.’ Your goal gives you direction. But who you become in the journey is the whole point. If you’ve been riding the emotional highs and lows of your business or your life — this episode is the conversation that reorients everything.

Where in the world am I? In San Diego, talking about Niterói, near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil This episode has an FAQ about how you can get started with travel, Step 1. Then we talk about Niteroi, near Rio, Brazil. We cover my missteps, trying to get an Uber without service in Brazil. The FAQ is: How do we get started on my travels when I haven't been anywhere? Answer: The first step in your exciting travel journey is to set a goal! What inspires you to explore the world? Do you have a specific timeline in mind that gets your adventurous spirit ready to go? Is there a destination that fills your heart with the desire to go? Perhaps you're waiting for the perfect companion to join you on your travels. These are all meaningful questions that resonate deeply.   Let's get creative! Grab a piece of paper and some colorful crayons, and start drawing your travel dreams. Imagine yourself soaring high in the sky on an airplane, sailing on a beautiful boat, or riding a scenic train to a picturesque destination. Visualize the globe and focus on that one special place you want to visit — and think of the journey to get there and back home. The thrill of dreaming, planning, and contemplating all the endless possibilities is where the magic happens! Even if your travels remain a dream, the joy of imagining them is a treasure you carry with you.   I'd like to share a thought from Viktor Frankl's inspiring book, "Man's Search for Meaning." He penned his reflections during a harrowing time in his life, reminding us of the power of our memories and imagination. I encourage you to relish this time and, first, travel in your mind. Dream boldly, for it's the first step toward making those dreams real. 60-second confidence challenge Your challenge today, Confidence Challenge in Niteroi    The excitement surrounding the confidence challenge in Niteroi was truly invigorating, as millions of people came together in this vibrant city. After spending three wonderful weeks in South America, I arrived in Rio with a solid use of Spanish. However, Portuguese is the primary language spoken in Brazil. Despite this, I found it exciting to communicate by mixing my English and Spanish, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well people understood me.   If you're planning a trip to a new country like Brazil or some of the others I travel to, I highly encourage you to try out the free versions of Duolingo for a week or two beforehand. It's a challenging method for learning essential phrases like "please," "thank you," and "where's the bathroom?" Plus, knowing how to count a little will surely improve your experience. Embrace the challenge and be present in every moment of your journey! If you like today's Confidence Challenge, my book series delves deeper into language skills, while moving through the 5 steps to solo travel, from easy to more challenging, with foreign language communication tips. You can find the series at the link in the description.    See Book A for addressing this concern.  Find it on the website​​ at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon. It's a several-part series. Today's destination is Niteró, near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Just across the bay from the vibrant city of Rio de Janeiro lies a charming suburb that I hadn't discovered before, and I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to stay there for nearly a week! I can't wait to share some of the amazing adventures I experienced during my 90-day journey around the world.   Did you know Brazil has more cows than people? It's true! With a population of 214 million, there are approximately 238 million cows, which means plenty of milk and cheese to enjoy. Niterói truly enchanted me, so here's how I got there.   I started my adventure by strolling through Rio's bustling central area, full of excitement. With my backpack in tow, I hopped on the metro to the stunning coastline. After a lovely 15-minute walk to the ferry, I enjoyed a delightful ride across the bay, surrounded by fellow commuters soaking in the scenery as the sun set. While I could have taken the bridge by bus or car, the ferry was such a refreshing way to leave the city behind and embrace the calm of Niterói. Once I arrived at the dock, I could not get wifi. I'll talk about that later in the second on my mistakes.   What an incredible adventure I had! Livia, my host, arranged for an Uber remotely, which was such a thoughtful gesture. By the time I intended to grab a ride, the sun had set, and the area near the port was buzzing with energy. I walked through a vibrant outdoor market, soaking in the lively atmosphere as I searched for a good meeting spot. I stumbled upon a taxi stand and a newspaper kiosk, where I chatted with the friendly locals about how to navigate my Uber pickup. Thanks to Livia's excellent instructions, the driver found me swiftly, and off I went!   Although the ride took us down some unpaved and bumpy roads, I was filled with excitement. When I finally arrived at Livia's home, it was dark, and I had a moment of uncertainty about whether I was in the right place. But as soon as Livia's family welcomed me with open arms, I knew I was exactly where I belonged for the next five days.   I was shown to a comfortable room with its own bathroom, and I quickly became acquainted with the family's adorable pets and loved ones. I felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and happiness. The next morning, I awoke to clear skies and breathtaking views of Rio de Janeiro right from my window. What a magnificent sight!   Let me tell you a bit more about my wonderful hosts! Livia's mom, Valeria, is a delightful person, and her dad, Julio, speaks six languages.  They even have a charming cat named Poseidon. Livia has such interesting aspirations; she's exploring international relations and climate change, studying law, and even aiming to take a UK diplomat exam—what a challenging and rewarding path.   I'm staying in a house nestled in the jungle; it's newly built and offers a stunning view of the trees and the city of Rio. It's just across the bay. My host family has a fascinating history; they lived on a ship for 8 years, which must have created unique experiences. Last night, I watched the show 'Sirens' on Netflix and found it hard to fall asleep, definitely paying for that this morning! I woke up at 7 am to the sound of the radio playing in Portuguese, so I think I'll need to practice in Duolingo again soon.   Today, Livia, her dad, and their dog, Flucky, went to the beach while I enjoyed refreshing coconut water and delicious meals. I also discovered a hidden gem surfing spot that most locals don't know about! In a moment of creativity, I created a mini garden at my hosts' home by clearing rocks and debris, planting seven lovely plants, and creating a decorative circle of white stones. I watered it both tonight and in the morning.    I had the pleasure of attending a vibrant local Forró party, full of lively music and joyful dancing, including Salsa! The delicious food, featuring corn dishes from the Northeast, was a highlight—especially the tasty Mandioca root vegetables and Uta yucca. Everyone wore plaid for this energetic dance celebration! It was a fantastic experience that we didn't want to miss.   I had a wonderful day at Itipu beach, almost completely solo.  I encountered some delightful birds and a handful of other adventurous solo travelers. The tranquility created a perfect setting for relaxation: the cool breeze and shimmering water added to the charm. After walking a mile from my Uber drop-off, I met the friendly Samara from Mato Grosso, Brazil, who works in refrigeration for chicken. While enjoying lunch and reading a business book by American business leader Jack Welch, we had an inspiring chat.  Plus, her husband, Andre, kindly shared his hotspot with me for my Uber, making my day even smoother and more enjoyable!   What an incredible experience I had with my Uber! When the car broke down, that's right. It just stopped. the driver jumped into action, showing impressive skills by getting under the vehicle to fix it right there on the roadside. It was fascinating to navigate the situation without speaking the same language, which made it even more interesting! I almost called for another ride, but my Uber app and phone were acting up. After about ten minutes of dedicated work, he successfully fixed the issue and took me to my destination. This unforgettable ride truly highlighted the resilience and resourcefulness of people. I left with a smile and a fun story to share!   I was so excited to go out to dinner at a fantastic all-you-can-eat restaurant.  The quality and service were promised to be exceptional, making it the perfect way to show my appreciation to my wonderful hosts on my last night in Niteroi. I indulged in a delicious Rodizio meat buffet, which was a real treat! The flavors there were delightfully unique compared to what I was used to back in the USA. I couldn't wait to try everything—from the intriguing Cupin meat to fresh pineapple juice with mint, crispy fried bananas, Guarana, and Farofa made from manioc. That culinary experience was truly memorable and full of surprises! Your trip to Niteroi may be different from mine, but I will never forget how I felt cared for by the Servas hosts, and it was relaxing for me for a few days.   I got the Uber to leave Niterio, sadly. Went to the ferry with driver Katia, the first woman driver I have had all month!  It drizzled on arrival in Rio again, so I was glad I had a taxi for about $5 instead of walking, and I stayed dry.   My misstep: I couldn't get an Uber because of bad settings. I did not have service on my phone.   I had an unexpected Wi-Fi adventure that turned out to be a great learning experience! When I arrived in the charming town of Niterói on a busy Friday night, I discovered my Wi-Fi had been accidentally turned off, and I hadn't even noticed. This made ordering an Uber a bit tricky, but I remembered that McDonald's offers Wi-Fi, so I decided to stop there for some help. I ordered my ride but had to dash across the street to meet the driver. Unfortunately, the heavy traffic made it challenging for him to pick me up, and he had to leave. Not to be discouraged, I walked a few more blocks in search of better reception, but that didn't pan out either. Fix your settings before you need an Uber.   Today's tip: Check your phone's settings regularly.    Here's a helpful tip: if you find yourself in a similar situation, don't forget to check your phone's settings first! I learned the importance of keeping my settings up to date to avoid hassle in the future. Use AI to help you with what to click on or off if you are confused.

Zach sits down with Kate and Cole Kelly, married co-directors of Camp Equahic in northeastern Pennsylvania and the authors behind the relationship practice they built almost by accident: Three Happys and an Appreciation. What started as a long-distance dating ritual, Kate asking Cole to name three things that made him happy each day just so she could get to know him, became the through line of a 25-year marriage, a shared business, three sons, and a camp community that now serves 450 kids per session from 15 states and 14 countries.The conversation moves across a lot of terrain. Cole grew up in Athens, Georgia, went to Dartmouth, coached golf at the University of Virginia, and came to camp life through Kate, who had already found her footing running a boarding school and never wanted to be in a classroom. Together they took over a camp that was quietly dying after a family ownership dispute, grew it back from the ground up, and built their philosophy around three values they believe transcend religion, background, and age: gratitude, attitude, and courage. Along the way they layered in everything from Viktor Frankl and Tony Robbins to Alison Armstrong's research on how men and women communicate differently, and applied all of it to the work of staying close while also running a business that puts 675 souls in their care every summer.The emotional center of this episode is surprisingly practical. Kate and Cole are not people who talk about their marriage in abstractions. They talk about the appreciation Cole had to ask for because Kate was falling asleep before he got it. They talk about what it cost Kate for Cole to travel most of the year meeting families in person, and why they kept doing it anyway. They built a coming-of-age ritual for their three boys because there was no secular equivalent to a bar mitzvah and they thought someone should. Their oldest son Cole Jr. is getting married this summer at camp, with half the wedding party made up of his childhood bunkmates. This episode is a portrait of two people who decided very early that marriage is a practice, not a feeling, and then built the systems to prove it.Key TakeawaysGratitude is a skill, not a mood. Building a daily habit of noticing what is good, no matter how small, physically changes how you see your partner and your life.The appreciation piece is the one that often gets resisted most and matters most. Telling your partner specifically what you noticed and valued about them that day is different from a general "I love you," and it hits differently too.Scanning for the good in your partner is something you have to train yourself to do. It does not happen naturally for most people. The three happys practice creates the conditions for it.Men and women often process differently, and understanding that is an attitude adjustment in itself. Cole stopped resisting Kate's multi-threaded thinking when he understood it was not chaos; it was wiring.Courage in marriage looks less like big dramatic moments and more like saying the hard thing, asking for help, or admitting you do not have it today.Kids grow by being allowed to fail. Snowplowing the obstacles out of their path also removes the muscle they need to handle real life.Consistency beats perfection. The three happys practice works not because every night is meaningful but because doing it every night makes the meaningful nights possible.A system is not a substitute for connection. It is the container that makes connection repeatable.Guest InfoKate Kelly is the co-director and operational backbone of Camp Weequahic, one of the top co-ed overnight camps in the country. A former boarding school educator, Kate has spent over two decades building systems, leading staff, and quietly running the kind of operation that camp families trust with their kids for up to six weeks at a time. She and Cole are co-authors of the book Three Happys and an Appreciation, available in both a family edition and a couples edition on Amazon.Cole Kelly is the co-director of Camp Weequahic and the front-facing voice of the Kelly family's camp community. A Dartmouth graduate with a background in sports psychology and golf coaching, Cole spends much of the year traveling the country to meet prospective families in person, a practice he refuses to give up despite the flight miles it costs him. He is a student of Tony Robbins, Viktor Frankl, and Alison Armstrong, and has spent years thinking intentionally about how to raise good men, including building a secular coming-of-age program for his three sons and a cohort of their fathers.Website: https://weequahic.com Podcast and relationship resources: https://campfireconversation.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Why Isn't Everyone Using Their Pleasure Consciously? with Jeremy Lipkowitz What if the thing quietly hijacking your focus, your relationships, and your capacity for joy isn't a character flaw, but a billion-dollar industry deliberately engineering your addiction? In this episode, Emily Fletcher sits down with Jeremy Lipkowitz, Duke-trained researcher, former Buddhist monk, and founder of Unhooked Academy, where he helps men break free from porn addiction and reclaim their inner freedom. Jeremy's story begins at age six and escalates through the rise of high-speed internet until, by college, the habit had become a one-to-two-hour nightly ritual - despite him being a high-achieving student with what looked, from the outside, like a genuinely good life. That gap between the outer and the inner is exactly what this conversation explores. They trace the neurological pathway from innocent curiosity to compulsive behavior, unpack the precise distinction between lust and desire, and name the Viktor Frankl principle at the heart of all addiction recovery. Emily offers the Ziva lens: why you cannot manifest from a nervous system still running on craving and lack, and how meditation is the prerequisite for desire that is truly intuitive rather than compulsive. In this episode, they explore: – The three A's of porn addiction: affordability, accessibility, and anonymity – How repeated porn use hardwires dissatisfaction and chronic lack into the brain – Lust vs. desire — and why you need a spiritual practice to tell them apart – "Pleasure is inevitable. Happiness is optional." What that reframe changes – The Viktor Frankl principle: between stimulus and response is where freedom lives – Why porn addiction is a microcosm of every modern addiction – The two-step exercise Jeremy uses with clients: default future vs. dream future – How the porn industry became bigger than all U.S. professional sports combined Key Moments: 02:08 — Introducing Jeremy Lipkowitz 09:00 — High-speed internet and the moment a habit became an addiction 12:20 — The walk that changed Jeremy's life 14:00 — Lust vs. desire: the distinction that changes everything 26:25 — Between stimulus and response lies your freedom 33:54 — Pleasure vs. happiness: the most important distinction Jeremy has ever learned 43:47 — Bliss is any feeling fully felt 57:00 — The two-step exercise for any addiction 01:00:00 — The billion-dollar industry engineering your addiction About Jeremy Lipkowitz Jeremy Lipkowitz is a Duke-trained researcher, former Buddhist monk, and founder of Unhooked Academy. After completing 20 Vipassana retreats and a monastic ordination in Myanmar, he built a platform to help men break free from compulsive behavior and reclaim their inner freedom. His work bridges neuroscience, Buddhist psychology, and practical recovery tools. Podcast: Unhooked Breaking Porn Addiction PodcastWebsite: unhookedacademy.com This episode is a perfect window into the work we've been building toward at Ziva. The craving, the longing, the thing pulling you toward what doesn't actually fill you — Jeremy calls it lust. We have a different name for it. And we have a practice for transmuting it into something that does. Something new is forming this summer. Get on the list to hear about it first.

One day your life will be summarized by a single line. A beginning date.An ending date.And a dash in between. The question is: What are you doing with your dash? On this episode of Like It Matters Radio, Mr. Black delivers a direct challenge about purpose, legacy, leadership, and eternity. Because life is not measured by possessions, titles, or status. It is measured by people. Who are you helping? Who is breathing easier because you lived? Who is stronger because your life intersected with theirs? What are you building that will outlive you? Drawing from Isaiah 61, Luke 4, Viktor Frankl, Stephen Covey, and the book of Job, Mr. Black breaks down the deeper meaning behind being in the People Business. Not using people.Not managing people.Building people.

Dean Hall was sick, grieving, and without hope — until he made a decision that changed everything: find something worth living for. In this powerful encore release from the Biological Blueprint, Dean joins Freddie to explore the terrain that no lab test can measure — purpose, spirit, and the courage to take just one more step. Drawing on Viktor Frankl's observations from Auschwitz, Dean reveals why it wasn't the strongest or the smartest who survived the unsurvivable — it was those most passionately tied to a purpose larger than themselves. He walks through his three pillars for navigating a dark night of the soul: releasing the need for perfection, trusting the body's innate ability to heal what it created, and the radical simplicity of asking yourself only one question — what is the next step? Whether you're 180 miles into an open water swim or sitting with a diagnosis that just changed your life, Dean's answer is always the same: you already know. The second half of this conversation goes into territory rarely explored in health and wellness — transgenerational trauma, family systems therapy, and the epigenetic wounds passed silently from generation to generation. Dean shares how he's only recently begun mapping his own ancestral lineage, from a 14-year-old great grandmother who crossed the ocean alone from Sweden to fishermen and brawlers from Northern England — and how forest bathing and cold water immersion have become his most powerful tools for releasing what isn't his to carry. He also shares a profoundly simple breathwork and prayer practice he has used with thousands of clients over 20 years — a tool he calls centering down — that uses the brain's hardwired need to answer every question it's asked to surface your deepest purpose. One hundred percent of people who stick with it through the frustration, he says, find their answer. This one is worth a second listen.   Episode Highlights [02:13] – Dean shares the world-record swims that reshaped his life after cancer [06:36] – How mindfulness and purpose helped him endure extreme physical suffering [10:20] – The sudden brain cancer diagnosis that took his wife's life in just 52 days [14:20] – Losing his identity after grief and feeling completely disconnected from himself [20:52] – Discovering leukemia during a routine knee surgery workup [24:30] – Viktor Frankl's work on meaning becomes a turning point in Dean's recovery [31:00] – Why swimming the Willamette River became a mission bigger than himself [41:22] – Attempting the 187-mile swim while living with active leukemia and lymphoma [46:47] – How cold water immersion unexpectedly changed his mental and physical health [51:20] – The shocking blood test that showed his leukemia had disappeared [58:14] – Forest bathing, natural killer cells, and the role of nature in healing [01:03:20] – How grief finally began leaving his body in the forest [01:07:20] – Dean's philosophy of “BioWild Psychology” and reconnecting with nature [01:15:22] – Why people facing illness must become active participants in their healing   Links & Resources: Dean's Website: https://www.thewildcureway.com/ “The Wild Cure” book: https://www.thewildcureway.com/books   Upgrade Your Health The Biological Blueprint Course: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprint Earn 200 in BitCoin + Change your health BEAM Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN LightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794 Code: beautifullybroken Silver Biotics Wound Healing Gel: https://bit.ly/3JnxyDD 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN StemRegen: https://www.stemregen.co/products/stemregen?_ef_transaction_id=&oid=1&affid=52 Code: beautifullybroken CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/freddie.kimmelYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beautifullybrokenworld Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Todo mundo já te chamou de forte, resiliente e guerreira? Mas será que aguentar é realmente o mesmo que transformar?Neste episódio do Juliana Goes Podcast, eu quis trazer uma reflexão profunda sobre dor, ressignificação emocional e o peso que muitas mulheres carregam ao serem constantemente elogiadas pela capacidade de suportar.Falamos sobre o conceito de resiliência, a ideia de antifragilidade, saúde emocional feminina, inteligência emocional e o quanto, às vezes, a sociedade romantiza o sofrimento como se crescer precisasse necessariamente do caos.Também compartilho reflexões sobre os livros Antifrágil, de Nassim Taleb, e Em Busca de Sentido, de Viktor Frankl — além de experiências pessoais que me fizeram entender a diferença entre sobreviver ao que aconteceu… e realmente fazer algo com o que aconteceu.Porque ressignificar não é voltar a ser quem você era antes.É permitir que a experiência transforme você com consciência.Um episódio sobre dor, força, vulnerabilidade, autoconhecimento e presença emocional.Se esse episódio fizer sentido pra você, compartilhe com alguém que também precise ouvir isso.

What if your greatest obstacle is actually your greatest qualification?This week, Jon Goehring and Coach Jim Johnson welcome Diana Fritz, dynamic executive leader, cancer thriver, Maxwell Leadership certified coach, and author of Uniquely Imperfect, Uniquely Qualified, for one of the most moving and genuinely inspiring conversations the Lounge has ever had.Diana opens with a story about her grandmother that sets the tone for everything that follows. A woman who chose joy no matter what life brought her, who could make anyone feel seen and loved, and whose smile Diana has made it her life's mission to carry forward. From there she shares what her first basketball coach taught her about mental toughness, accountability, and the kind of teamwork that shows up in a boardroom just as powerfully as it does on a court.The conversation shifts into Diana's cancer diagnosis, which arrived 12 years ago, thirty days into the year she turned forty, right in the middle of a separation, an executive role, and single motherhood. What she did with that news is a masterclass in proactive leadership. Drawing on Viktor Frankl and Stephen Covey, two books she was assigned in college and never forgot, Diana made a decision that her cancer would refine her rather than define her, and has been living that out every day since.Jon and Coach dig into the practical tools Diana uses to lead herself before leading anyone else, including her daily five AM reflection practice, her journaling habits built over decades, and the way she uses gratitude not as a buzzword but as a daily discipline that keeps her anchored when everything around her is uncertain.Diana also shares a masterclass on DISC, breaking down all four personality styles and explaining how understanding them transformed her relationships with the high D personalities who used to frustrate her most, and how she now uses DISC workshops to help entire organizations appreciate what makes each person different rather than fight about it.The episode closes with a powerful message for anyone who thinks they have nothing unique to offer. Diana makes the case that every scar, every struggle, and every obstacle you are working through right now is uniquely qualifying you to reach someone else who needs exactly what you have learned. And one person, she reminds us, is always enough to make it worth it.Whether you are leading through your own hard season, trying to build a team that truly works together, or just need a reminder that joy is always a choice even when circumstances are not, this episode will stay with you long after it ends.Connect with Diana: grituiuq.comGrab Uniquely Imperfect, Uniquely Qualified on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Uniquely-Imperfect-Qualified-Adversity-Imperfection/dp/1636804306Connect with Diana on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/diana-fritz-b032064/

Did you know that bamboo spends three to five years underground before it ever breaks the surface? No growth you can see. No sign that anything is working. And yet — beneath the soil — the roots are spreading, strengthening, and preparing for an explosion of growth that can reach ninety feet in a matter of months.That's the story of your life right now. You're the farmer. You're planting the seeds. You're watering them. And you may not see a single thing sprouting yet — but that doesn't mean nothing is happening.In this episode, we're talking about one second of patience — the choice to keep going when you can't see the results. Viktor Frankl said that between stimulus and response there is a space, and in that space is your power to choose.

Nejtěžší dnes možná není vydržet tempo. Nejtěžší je neztratit při tom kontakt s tím, co je v nás ještě živé. Tenhle díl je o chvílích, které na venek skoro nejsou vidět, ale uvnitř rozhodují všechno. O tom, jestli znovu zareaguješ podle starého scénáře, nebo se o pár milimetrů vychýlíš. Zůstaneš déle. Řekneš pravdivější větu. Odmítneš něco, co tě vysává. Uděláš malé rozhodnutí, které má v sobě víc života než efektivity. Právě tam se často láme směr celého života.Zároveň je to rozhovor o světě, který si naši pozornost bere dřív, než se stihneme potkat sami se sebou. O algoritmech, podvědomí, dopaminu i o tom, proč dnes nestačí být výkonný. Potřebujeme znovu získat autoritu nad vlastním životem. Učit se ekologii energie. Rozlišovat, co nás rozšiřuje a co nás pomalu zavírá. A možná si znovu položit tu nejdůležitější otázku: co je ve mně ještě opravdu živé a co už jenom reaguje.Parťák dílu:Vilgain - Aktin.cz a tady je náš link essentials ⁠Aktin.cz/bwa⁠ pro slevu zadej kód BWA a objednej si kvalitní produkty s čistým složením.

What do you do when the medical system you were trained to trust can't save your own daughter?That's the question Dr. Aaron Hartman ran into the day he met his foster daughter Anna. She came into the world facing more than her share of challenges, and doctors told the Hartmans she wouldn't walk, talk, or crawl.When the standard recommendation came down to a feeding tube and a string of surgeries, Aaron and his wife said no. They were reported to Child Protective Services for wanting to feed their daughter food instead.Anna is now 20, and she walks and talks just fine. Her story rebuilt her father's entire approach to medicine. Aaron sits down with Chris to talk about what he's learned along the way and the role healthy fats play in healing the brain. They discuss how the pharmaceutical research world really works from the inside and why purpose may be the most underrated longevity tool we have."Your body was made to heal.

Rachel recounts her path into Orthodox Jewish life starting in eighth grade at an Orthodox day school, describes how tefillah and Torah have sustained her, and shares how Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning—relayed to her through released hostage Or Levy—became a tool for enduring suffering by finding purpose. She discusses Modeh Ani, trust in Hashem amid uncertainty, grief as an expression of love, “toxic positivity” versus “tragic optimism,” and verses and teachings that frame this world as a hallway to the next.EPISODE SPONSORSColel Chabad Colel Chabad is one of Israel's oldest continuously operating charities, supporting families with food security, widows & orphans, and emergency relief.  Their Pushka (Charity Box) App makes it easy to turn inspiration into action with simple daily giving—small “micro-donations” that add up to real impact over time.

Neste episódio do Conversa Paralela, Lara Brenner e Arthur Morisson recebem o psicólogo Luís Enrique e o advogado Enrico Misasi para uma reflexão profunda sobre a interseção entre o sentido da vida e a atuação política no Brasil. A discussão parte da logoterapia de Viktor Frankl para diagnosticar o "vazio existencial" que se manifesta na sociedade contemporânea através da agressividade, da apatia e do fanatismo ideológico. O debate explora como o resgate das responsabilidades individuais e a busca pela excelência pessoal são os únicos caminhos reais para a transformação social e o combate à mentalidade revolucionária.

“We need to develop better theories of why the other side believes what they do. Having an accurate theory includes recognizing if somebody is a psychopath — but also recognizing that psychopaths are rarer than we think.” — Audun Dahl If you're not a liberal at twenty, you have no heart; if you're not a conservative at forty, you have no head. While this sounds like an annoying cliché (especially to people under forty), it does recognize that our moral views change. But, as the Cornell psychologist Audun Dahl argues in his new book Between Fixed and Fickle: Why Our Moral Views Keep Changing, the most interesting question is why our moral principles always seem in flux. Why people who say cheating is wrong cheat. Why people who say violence is wrong turn a blind moral eye to their own insurrections. Dahl is a psychologist, not a moralist. He is not interested in what we should believe, but in what we think we believe. His central finding is that human morality is neither fixed nor fickle. People change their moral views when they believe they have good reasons to — reasons they can, indeed, articulate. The problem isn't hypocrisy per se. It's that we struggle to understand why the other side believes what it does. In morally polarised societies like contemporary America, we over-attribute psychopathy to political opponents. Most Republicans and most Democrats do have genuine moral commitments. But they are just different principles, applied to parallel moral hierarchies. Rather than morality perhaps, we need more empathy. Don't judge. Understand. Five Takeaways •       Two Kinds of Moral Change: Dahl identifies two forms of moral change that should trouble us. Situational moral change: people espouse one principle and act against it in a specific situation — the person who says cheating is wrong and cheats on an exam, the January 6th rioter who says violence is wrong. Historical moral change: the same principles coexisting with practices that contradict them — Thomas Jefferson proclaiming inalienable rights while enslaving hundreds. Both are not simply hypocrisy: they reflect the genuine messiness of moral life, where competing principles create constant conflict. •       Morality Emerges in the First Three Years of Life: Dahl's most striking empirical finding: by around age three, virtually all children develop an intrinsic concern with how we ought to treat other sentient beings. It is not taught as an external rule. It emerges. A three-year-old will say: it's wrong to harm others, you shouldn't steal. No other animal acquires this. It is a uniquely human characteristic. The question is not whether people have moral commitments — almost everyone does. The question is how those commitments interact with other concerns, pressures, and competing principles. •       We Over-Attribute Psychopathy to the Other Side: One of the most robustly documented findings in political psychology: Republicans and Democrats don't merely think the other side is wrong. They think the other side is evil — likely to condone things they would never condone. Research shows both sides significantly over-estimate the other's extremism and moral depravity. Dahl's prescription: develop better theories of why the other side believes what it does. An accurate theory includes recognising genuine psychopaths and bad actors when they exist. It also includes recognising that they are rarer than we think. •       Jefferson, Epstein, and the Exceptions: Two historical anchors. Jefferson: the author of the Declaration of Independence's inalienable rights, who enslaved hundreds. The question is not whether he was a hypocrite — he clearly was — but how someone could hold both positions simultaneously. The answer Dahl finds most compelling: conflicting moral principles applied with different weights in different contexts, not the absence of moral concern. Epstein: the opposite case, a man who concealed an absence of moral concern behind a veneer of respectability. The lesson: some people genuinely lack it, but they are exceptions. •       Elbow Room: The Hilary Mantel Closer: Dahl's two wishes for a more moral world. First: that we understand why the other side disagrees. Second: that we have more “elbow room” — the phrase from Hilary Mantel's Cromwell trilogy — to make decisions based on what we actually think is right rather than what we need to do to survive. Machiavelli and Cromwell operated in a world where survival left almost no room for principled action. If that is becoming our world again, the prospects for moral progress are bleak. Dahl is cautiously hopeful. The creative, restless energy of each new generation — willing to say this is unjust, this is unfair — is what abolished slavery. It is what drives moral change still. About the Guest Audun Dahl is Associate Professor of Psychology at Cornell University. He is the author of Between Fixed and Fickle: Why Our Moral Views Keep Changing (Harvard University Press, April 2026). He grew up in Norway and is based in Ithaca, New York. References: •       Between Fixed and Fickle: Why Our Moral Views Keep Changing by Audun Dahl (Harvard University Press, April 2026). •       Hilary Mantel, Wolf Hall trilogy — cited by Dahl as capturing the “elbow room” problem of moral action under survival pressure. •       Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning — referenced in the same context as Mantel. •       Episode 2906: Dylan Gottlieb on Yuppies — the companion episode on how professional class morality was shaped by competing incentives. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States — hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic.

“Being a father is probably one of the toughest and most rewarding jobs I've ever had. A lot of the principles I used to teach snipers apply to kids: dealing with negativity, replacing negative self-talk, learning that well-meaning adults can say terrible things — and you don't have to take that on as baggage.” — Brandon Webb Brandon Webb defines himself as an author, entrepreneur, Navy SEAL sniper, and father. But not in that order. The first three he leveraged into a series of bestselling books about the art of sniping. The fourth — the art of being a loving father — he dodged and ducked for years. But fatherhood might be Webb's real calling. People regularly pulled him aside after meeting his grown children to ask him about his “secret” for being an effective dad. His kids were making eye contact, they were asking good questions rather than staring at their phones. Most astonishingly, they seemed happy. Webb's new book, Puddle Jumpers: Simple and Proven Ways to Raise Confident and Joyful Kids, reveals his secret of parenting. It applies the positive performance psychology Webb learned as a Navy SEAL sniper instructor — how to redirect negative self-talk, how to deal with well-meaning adults who say damaging things, how to build mental toughness without destroying connection — to the work of raising children. It outlines his parenting philosophy of both high expectations and high support. Think of Puddle Jumpers as simultaneously the manual for tiger and the bunny parenting. Brandon Webb's ultimate calling in life is as a parent. Father, author, entrepreneur and Navy SEAL sniper. In that order. Five Takeaways •       The Sniper Instructor as Parenting Coach: Webb was running the Navy SEAL sniper program at 27 years old. The psychology they taught there — positive self-talk, replacing negative internal narratives, dealing with adversity without being broken by it — is what he applied to parenting. The connection is not as strange as it sounds: both sniping and parenting require performing under pressure, dealing with failure without catastrophising, and building confidence that is genuine rather than brittle. The difference is that the stakes in parenting last a lifetime. •       High Expectations, High Support: Webb's alternative to the false choice between permissive parenting and authoritarian discipline. Permissive parenting replaces preparation with protection. Authoritarian discipline breaks connection. Puddle Jumper Parenting holds both simultaneously: clear expectations and emotional safety. Kids need to know what's required of them. They also need to know they won't be abandoned when they fail. Webb's word for children raised this way: puddle jumpers — kids who leap into life's messy moments with full-hearted abandon, not because they're fearless but because they trust themselves to recover. •       The Credit Card Lesson: Don't Bail Them Out: Webb's son Jackson managed a self-storage facility through college and ended up with a $25,000 ownership payout as a sophomore at St Andrews. He spent it like a drunken sailor on shore leave, got a credit card, ran up $12,000 in debt at predatory interest rates, and called his father for help. Webb's response: you remember that conversation we had? Figure it out. He let his son suffer. Jackson's girlfriend hated Webb for two years. At the end, Jackson paid off the debt with a new business and told his father it was one of the best lessons he'd ever been taught. It would have been easy to bail him out. The suffering was the lesson. •       Purpose and the War Veteran: Viktor Frankl's Lesson: How does a combat veteran come home intact? Webb's answer: purpose. His Afghanistan deployment had clear moral logic — the propaganda posters in the caves, the training camps, the towers. That clarity carried him through. Iraq was different. Soldiers who went to Iraq with no understanding of why they were there — and whose friends in 2010 were saying we have no idea what we're doing here — came home broken. Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning: purpose is the thing that makes endurance possible. Without it, violence that cannot be assigned rational meaning produces serious mental illness. •       Teach Kids About Money: The American Economy Preys on Them: Webb has strong opinions: America's economy is largely fuelled by consumer debt. Credit card companies prey on college students because they know the parents will bail them out. Kids need to understand the system before the system takes advantage of them. His prescription: teach them age-appropriate financial literacy early. The Acorns Early app gamifies financial learning for children. The deal he struck with all his kids in college: I pay for school, you have a roof and food, but if you want to socialise, get a job. The lesson is not just about money. It's about agency. About the Guest Brandon Webb is a combat-decorated Navy SEAL sniper, multiple New York Times bestselling author, Harvard Business School alumnus, and father of three.

In this message from Pastor Troy, he teaches about God as “the God of all hope,” sharing how POW survivors in World War II—including a Bataan Death March survivor—observed that those who held onto belief in God and hope survived at higher rates, echoing accounts like Viktor Frankl's about the collapse of the human spirit when hope is lost. Using Romans 15:13, he explains that biblical hope is not wishful thinking but confident expectation grounded in God's unchanging character and promises, and that hope anchors the soul (Hebrews 6:19) through every kind of storm. He gives practical ways to grow hope—feed on Scripture, remember past victories, and stay around hope-filled people—illustrating with David, Abraham, Joseph, Jeremiah, and Paul's shipwreck in Acts 27.

The Counter Momentum of Spin, with Dr. Franco Musio – Pain and suffering shape human experience through meaning, courage, and wisdom. Drawing on Nietzsche, Viktor Frankl, and Nelson Mandela, the discussion explores how hardship can deepen resilience, reveal purpose, and transform personal trials into spiritual growth, moral insight, and a stronger capacity to weather life's most difficult storms with hope...

Edith Eger was only 16 years old when the Nazis invaded Hungary during World War II. Her future was ripped from her when she and her family were imprisoned at Auschwitz concentration camp. Edith's parents were sent to the gas chambers immediately – but Edith survived, forced to entertain Dr Mengele – known as the Angel of Death – until she survived the death march. For many years after, Edith struggled with her past, rife with horror and trauma. It was only after reading Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning that Edith stopped running from her trauma and faced it head on. When we interviewed her, Dr. Edith Eger was a 93-year-old clinician, speaker and author who is so full of wisdom and light, we could've done ten episodes with her. She passed away on April 27th, 2026, but her light, her words, and her impact will live on forever.

Most everyone knows the story of holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl who wrote the book, Man's Search For Meaning. In the book he shares his journey of finding meaning, purpose, and peace even as a prisoner in a concentration camp. A primary message he had for humanity was that regardless of circumstances, we have the freedom to choose our attitude in any situation. He feels this is what kept him alive while most around him died. But when the time came when Viktor was freed from his prison, he didn't stay there, saying he'd found peace and was good. He left to embrace the comforts and security of freedom. We as humans seem to inherently desire just that, comfort and security. I don't see that changing, and I'm not criticizing this, as I wake most mornings safe and sound in the comforts of my nice home full of all the latest amenities. But like Viktor, I want my core comfort and security to reside within me so that in times of hardship and uncertainty, I'm not devastated. We live in a time where we don't seem to be doing ok if things aren't certain for us. And they can't be. And as time goes on I align with the quote, “The more I learn the less I know,” usually attributed to Albert Einstein or Socrates. I find less and less that I can claim certainty with. But I'm also finding more peace than ever by accepting, not knowing. My guest in this episode is Simone Stolzoff. Simone is an author and journalist who explores big questions about work, meaning, and identity. He is the author of two books: The Good Enough Job and now, and the reason for me inviting him onto the show, he has written the book, How To Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty In a World That Demands Answers. Simone's work has been featured in The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and on the TED stage, and I found that many of the influential leaders I've had on this podcast follow Simone's research and work. Here we don't discount our desire for certainty, but dig into how we can remain secure when we are not certain. I'll add that I'm growing more distrusting of those who claim certainty, and at the point of rejecting the concept.

On October 7, 2023, Rachel Goldberg-Polin's son Hersh was taken from the Nova Music Festival into Gaza. For 330 days, she and her husband John fought to bring him home; meeting with world leaders, speaking at the UN, and wearing a piece of tape on their chests with the changing number of days he'd been held captive. Hersh was murdered in captivity on day 330. In this raw and unforgettable conversation, Rachel sits down with Danielle to talk about her new book When We See You Again (NYT bestseller). She opens up about the reality of living inside grief, the pressure society places on people to “heal,” why she rejects toxic positivity, the philosophy of “tragic optimism” that now guides her life, and why she refuses to let her humanity break.In this episode, she shares: The final two texts Hersh sent his parents and what they meant Why Rachel calls herself "disordered" The story behind the tape that millions of people around the world started wearing "Toxic positivity" vs. "tragic optimism" — and the Viktor Frankl quote that Hersh lived by How Rachel held space for the suffering of mothers in Gaza while her own son was held there The one question she still can’t answer: “How are you?” Why Rachel says motherhood changed “the DNA” of who she is in the world The Jewish mystical idea that reframes why we're here at all What it means to mother a child who is no longer in this world Why Rachel says “hope is mandatory” even after unimaginable loss "Every soul comes to this world to do one act of kindness."

One concept. That's all we're covering today. And if you only took one thing from 260-plus episodes of this show... it might be this.Viktor Frankl survived the Holocaust and came out the other side with an idea that Jon and Will think about almost every day. Between what happens to you and how you respond, there's a gap. A space. And inside that space is where every good decision you've ever made actually lives.Most of us blow right past it. Something happens, we react. Email comes in, we fire back. Kid does something, we snap. No space in between.In this episode we break down why the gap exists, why nobody taught you how to use it, and four ways to start building it this week. No fluff. No theory you can't use. Just one concept you can try before your next meeting, your next hard conversation, or your next encounter with slow internet.This is the foundation of the Awareness to Action (A2A) course we've been building.

If you've been feeling overwhelmed or stuck trying to control everything, this episode invites you into a different way of living: one rooted in surrender, self-awareness, and faith.After a year of exploring the Yamas and Niyamas, we've arrived at the final practice: Ishvara Pranidhana (surrender). But what does it really mean to let go of control and trust God, especially in real, everyday life?In this episode of The Problem with Perfect, we explore: How to stop trying to control everything  What it looks like to let go and let God How to manage triggers and emotional reactions  Why spiritual growth and healing require surrender Together, we discuss how surrender isn't passive. Instead, it's choosing to fully engage in your life while releasing the outcome and learning to trust God in uncertainty.If you've ever wondered how to let go of control, grow in your faith, or find peace in the unknown, this conversation will meet you right where you are. Because maybe peace isn't found in control, maybe it's found in surrender.Show Notes: The Yamas and Niyamas: Exploring Yoga's Ethical Practice by Deborah AdeleMan's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl

This is the start of a new miniseries on decision making — and I'd argue it might be the most important skill behind everything else we talk about on this show. Your career, your health, your relationships...it all flows downstream from the choices you make. At our core, we are decision-making entities. Viktor Frankl said it from inside a concentration camp: the last of the human freedoms is to choose your own attitude in any given set of circumstances.The good news is that choosing is a skill, and you can get better at it. I'll share the story of King Solomon — who was offered health, wealth, or fame and asked for none of them — and why that one move unlocked everything else. This is where the miniseries begins, and I think it could change how you see every decision you make from here on out.--- P.S.: If you like this podcast, you'll probably enjoy seeing Scott present live. If you are interested in having him speak to your organization, you can see the options and schedule time to talk with Scott about your event here: https://scottwozniak.com/speaking/---Sign up to have Scott email you a weekly idea, story or cool tool.

Dr. Edith Eger faced the worst humanity can do, survived Auschwitz, and went on to build a 98-year life rooted in resilience, forgiveness, and meaning. In this episode, Ryan reflects on her life and lessons as a Holocaust survivor, student of Viktor Frankl, and a powerful voice on resilience and forgiveness.

Send us Fan MailDr. Edith Eger: Holocaust Survivor on Choice, Freedom, and Healing From the Inside OutIn this episode of From The Inside Out with Rivkah Krinsky & Eda Schottenstein, we're re-releasing an early, cherished interview after Dr. Edith Eger's death, honoring the Auschwitz survivor, psychoanalyst, and author of The Choice, who taught that while we can't control circumstances, we can choose our response. Eger recounts liberation after being left for dead, the loss of her parents and first love, guilt about her mother's death, and how returning to Auschwitz helped her forgive herself. She discusses Viktor Frankl's influence, finding purpose, sharing rather than hoarding, and distinguishing distress from stress. Eger offers guidance on self-love as self-care, expression as an antidote to depression, revisiting trauma, responding instead of reacting, compassionate listening with children, and building relationships through responsibility, growth, and hope, insisting hate keeps us imprisoned and that love is shown through actions.00:00 Tribute to Edith02:11 Meeting Edith Again02:30 Liberation and Legacy03:53 Frankl and Purpose05:19 Dancing to Survive05:54 First Love Lost07:27 Rescued from Death08:10 Joy and Growth Mindset11:35 Guilt and Forgiveness12:17 Faith and Sharing Bread14:57 Have Tos and Hope17:30 New Books and Recipes19:24 Wisdom and Self Love21:02 Secrets and Expression21:46 Kind Words Only22:48 Choices After Trauma23:40 Speak Your Truth24:55 Evolving Beyond Fear27:08 Mind Freedom in Auschwitz29:57 Forgiveness and Freedom31:06 Validate Feelings at Home34:45 Marriage Lessons Twice37:41 Respond Don't React39:45 Legacy and Final YesesCOMMUNITYJoin the Community!

When Rachel Goldberg-Polin buried her son Hersh, she heard part of herself go into the ground with him. She joins host Noam Weissman to discuss her new memoir, sharing how writing became a way to survive unbearable grief and asking what it means to keep going when the person who was your whole world is gone. Drawing on Jewish theology, Viktor Frankl, and a prophetic journal entry Hersh wrote as a teenager, Rachel wrestles with how hope and despair can coexist.
