Exploring the "tired but wired" state where exhaustion meets an overactive alerting system, Matt explains that insomnia is often a disorder of hyperarousal rather than a lack of sleep drive. Using metabolic data and brain activity, he shows how an internal "accelerator" remains pressed despite an empty fuel tank, causing the body and brain to stay alert when they should be resting.Matt shares evidence-based CBT-I tools to break this cycle, including the "cognitive shuffle" and specific imagery to quiet racing thoughts. He also covers muscle relaxation and rhythmic breathing to trigger a physiological stand-down. By practicing stimulus control - leaving bed when awake - listeners can stop associating the bedroom with wakefulness and finally lower their internal alerting systems.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.MUDWTR is the ultimate coffee alternative that delivers a natural morning pick-me-up without caffeine jitters.

If you are waking up between 2:00 and 4:00 AM, lying there wide awake with your heart beating a little too fast and your mind solving every problem in your life, this episode is for you. Because this is not just about bad sleep. It is about what happens when the hormonal, adrenal, and nervous system shifts of midlife collide with the stress load most women are already carrying. And for a lot of women, this is the moment they stop feeling like themselves. In this episode, I do a deep dive into what is actually happening beneath the surface when women in perimenopause and menopause start feeling wired, tired, fragile, overwhelmed, anxious, and unable to recover the way they used to. We talk about the HPA axis, cortisol rhythm, DHEA, blood sugar, stress intolerance, adrenal strain, and why the advice women are getting online is often way too surface level to actually help. I also share what this has looked like in my own body, why midlife can feel like the season where your body stops tolerating the way you have been living, and why that is not a personal failure. It is physiology. This episode lays the foundation for understanding the deeper systems driving midlife sleep disruption and stress dysregulation, so you can stop blaming yourself and start getting clearer on what your body may actually need. In this episode, we cover: Why 2:00 to 4:00 AM wakeups are so common in perimenopause and menopause The difference between being tired and being hormonally and neurologically dysregulated What the HPA axis is and why it matters for stress and sleep How estrogen and progesterone affect stress resilience and recovery Why cortisol is not the enemy, but timing matters How cortisol dysregulation can affect sleep, anxiety, belly fat, and energy Why DHEA is one of the most overlooked hormones in midlife The connection between blood sugar drops and middle-of-the-night wakeups Why the old coping strategies stop working in midlife Why testing cortisol rhythm and DHEA can be so helpful Who this episode is for This episode is for women in perimenopause and menopause who are struggling with broken sleep, 3 AM wakeups, stress intolerance, fatigue, anxiety, feeling wired at night, crashing in the morning, or just feeling like they cannot handle life the way they used to. It is especially for women who want to understand the deeper physiology behind what is happening instead of being told to just relax, meditate, or take one supplement and hope for the best.     Sponsors Try Vitali Exosomes Skin Care vitaliskincare.com use coupon KM20 to get 20% off your order!

Story of the Week (DR):SuperBroIpoDystopia: Some key facts: MMa record-breaking $135 per share with$1.8T valuationTo make that math make sense, analysts estimate the company needs to grow its sales by 50% every single year for the next decadeSpaceX lost $4.9B last yearWall Street is Being Treated Like Order-Takers: Musk pre-set the IPO price strictly at $135 and dictating exactly which investors got allocations. This forced major investment banks like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to act as glorified order-takers without even knowing their exact compensation beforehandSaudi Aramco $1.7T; Alibaba: $237B; Facebook $118BNasdaq aggressively pushed through "fast-entry" rule changes specifically to allow mega-caps like SpaceX to bypass the traditional year of seasoning and enter the Nasdaq-100 in just 15 trading days. This forces passive index funds to buy in blindly to avoid tracking errorsMeme stocker bros: $100B in share orders30% of $75B offering is earmarked for individual retail investors. This effectively shifts late-stage, hyper-inflated valuation risk away from institutions and onto the public.BlackRock $5BInstitutional investors admitted that when they bought into SpaceX privately, they were given high-level revenue figures but were denied a copy of the actual balance sheet—an unprecedented lack of transparency for a company raising tens of billionsUniversity of Washington more than 10% of its $17B in assetsUNC about 10%SpaceX will make $75B in proceedsSaudi Aramco $26B; Alibaba $22BElon Musk's Absolute Voting Tyranny (80% of voting power)personal net worth has officially skyrocketed past $1.1TSpaceX's foundational scale was built on the back of the American public, securing over $20 billion in U.S. federal government contracts to fund its rocket developmentAntonio Gracias: personally lent Musk $1M to keep him afloat; his PE firm Valor gave $76MThat $1M lifeline and early institutional backing from 2008 have compounded into what analysts are calling the most lucrative return on a personal favor in business history.The Second-Largest Shareholder: Through various Valor entities, Gracias controls roughly 7.3% of SpaceX's Class A stock (more than 500 million shares)Gracias's stake is officially worth anywhere from $91B to over $140BThis single corporate listing instantly catapults Gracias into the ranks of the world's 50 richest people.The big party: combined valuation of $3.6TAnthropic ($965B) filed confidentially on June 1OpenAI ($1T) filed confidentially on June 8"We have not decided on timing yet; it may be a while because there are things we want to do that are likely easier as a private company.

Morningstar did not respond to a request from CNBC for comment.S&P Dow Jones Indices didn't comment on the letter, but the company noted it had decided not to change its rules regarding indexes: “S&P DJI determined that exceptions to these requirements should not be granted solely based on market capitalization,” it said in a statement to CNBC. “The decision not to adopt the proposed exceptions preserves core index principles by maintaining consistent application of these key requirements.”Democrats ask Goldman Sachs CEO why he's keeping lawyer who said she'd resign over ties to EpsteinGoldman Sachs CEO David Solomon is facing new scrutiny from congressional Democrats over his reported effort to retain the bank's top lawyer months after she said she would resign over revelations about her ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey EpsteinIn a letter sent Wednesday:U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs CommitteeRepresentative Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL), Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Health Care and Financial Services on the House Oversight Committee“Ruemmler ‘educated (Epstein) on how the law differentiates between underage victims of sex crimes and adult prostitutes…'”In February, Ruemmler announced her resignation from Goldman Sachs, effective June 30, 2026: “At the time, you stated that you “reluctantly” accepted Ruemmler's resignation.

Tired vs. Wired: $4 Trillion in IPOs Coming, $100B in M&A, and Why the SaaSpocalypse is Over The public markets spent the last twelve months telling you B2B software was finished. Stocks down 60 to 70 percent. PE firms buying nobody. For the first time in history, software trading at a discount to the S&P 500. And at the exact same moment, Anthropic is projecting $50 billion in revenue, Cursor is getting acquired for $60 billion, and SpaceX, Anthropic, OpenAI, and Databricks are about to generate more market value than every other IPO since 2000 combined. Both things are true - and which one defines your next 18 months depends entirely on one question: are you tired or are you wired? In this episode, SaaStr CEO and Founder Jason Lemkin calls the market as he sees it, names who is winning and who is pretending, and makes the case that the Cambrian explosion in B2B is just getting started. You'll learn: Why the SaaSpocalypse was never about B2B dying - it was about pre-AI software dying - and what the Palantir, Twilio, and Atlassian re-acceleration stories actually tell you The four categories every B2B company falls into right now, and why category four founders need to stop pretending the recovery is coming on its own Why vibe coding your CRM is dead as a concept, and what "putting deals on your calendar" actually means as a product strategy Why your biggest near-term competitive edge might be two days of engineering work - making your API agent-friendly before your competitors do What SaaStr's own journey from 20 humans to 3 humans and 21 agents teaches you about consistency as the only real cheat code in agents This is for you if: Your growth has slowed and you are not sure whether it is a market problem or a you problem - this session will help you figure out which You are a founder or exec who has been in the "AI is coming" conversation for a year but has not yet seen it show up in your revenue You want the unfiltered version of where B2B is headed in the next 18 months, including the parts most people are too polite to say out loud

Hey folks, Alex here, and welcome to a BIG MODEL week! We finally got Mythos (well almost)! Let me catch you up! This week started with WWDC26 from Apple, and Max Weinbach, who was in the room at Apple Park and actually has access to some of the new features including an all new SIRI AI, joined us to break down what could be the most used AI in the world very soon. At first I was skeptical, but he convinced me that the new Siri is actually good! Then, we saw the ultimate model drop: Anthropic finally shipped Mythos (X, my system card thread, benchmarks). Same weights, two names: Mythos 5 is the unrestricted version that only Project Glasswing partners get, Fable 5 is what the rest of us get, wrapped in the heaviest guardrails I've ever seen ship on a frontier model. It's state of the art on nearly every benchmarkThe model that was “too dangerous to release” is now... well, released, but with the heaviest guardrails we've seen. More on this later. Peter Gostev from Arena.ai joined us to break down the new model. Last but definitely not least, Google released a real-time translation model, that our friend Thor Schaeff from DeepMind demoed live, while we all spoke in different languages and it translated us in REAL TIME. It was really cool, definitely check that out. There's quite a few more things, like Loop Engineering Alpha, Swyx came by to talk about FrontierCode, OpenAI confirmed our suspicions that the anti-datacenter social media posts could be a concerted effort by groupds links to the Chinese government and much more. Let's dive in! ThursdAI - Let me catch you up, every week!

Back in 2014, Google Glass made the dream of smart glasses a reality for the tech-obsessed. But a hefty price tag and divisive design prevented Google from bringing its vision to the masses. A decade later, Meta seemingly cracked the code, offering affordable, fashion-forward smart specs in frames by established brands like Ray-Ban and Oakley. WIRED senior gear editor Julian Chokkattu and staff writer Boone Ashworth join David to discuss whether Google's new Android XR platform, which the company debuted in May, can give Meta a run for its money. They'll also discuss some of the thorny ethical issues surrounding AI-powered frames and where the industry is headed next.

Seventeen million views. People with real bills, real health problems, real crises in their own families stopped what they were doing to be outraged about a YouTuber they've never met. Not because Jesse Ridgway's story is more important than their own lives. Because their brains are built to respond to outrage faster than reason. Research shows moral outrage triggers dopamine — the same reward pathway that makes drugs addictive. The platforms know it. The algorithms amplify it. And Jesse Ridgway has spent twenty years learning how to trigger it.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines what's actually happening in someone's brain when they choose a stranger's drama over their own real life, why the not-knowing — is it real or fake? — makes the content stickier than scripted fiction, and what daily consumption of rage bait, staged crises, and performed lives is doing to the developing brains of the teenagers watching it. If you've ever wondered why you can't scroll past Jesse Ridgway even when you know you're being played, this is why.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Do you feel exhausted but can't seem to wind down? That wired-but-tired feeling so many women experience in midlife has a name, and a cause most doctors never address. In this episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, Marnie and Stephanie are joined by Dr. Scott Sherr, a board-certified internal medicine physician and expert in health optimization, to explore the connection between chronic stress, hormone changes, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Dr. Scott introduces the concept of the "sympathetic spiral of doom" — the cycle of stress, poor sleep, and cellular energy breakdown that keeps so many women stuck, and shares practical, science-backed ways to break it. The conversation covers methylene blue (what it is, how it works, and who should use it), GABA and nervous system support, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Dr. Scott also explains why only 6% of US adults have optimally functioning mitochondria, and what the other 94% can do about it. Key Takeaways: Chronic stress and hormone fluctuations directly impair mitochondrial function Estrogen is a critical mitochondrial optimizer, losing it in perimenopause has real cellular consequences Only 6% of US adults are metabolically healthy; symptoms of the rest range from brain fog to poor sleep to slow recovery Methylene blue supports mitochondrial energy production and works as a bridge while you optimize your health more broadly If a GABA supplement works for you, that's a warning sign worth paying attention to Down-regulating the nervous system too fast, without mitochondrial support, can cause a crash Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is most effective once you have a foundational health plan in place Sleep is one of the most powerful levers for mitochondrial health 00:00 – Introduction and Dr. Scott's background 04:13 – Why midlife women's bodies stop responding the way they used to 07:32 – Progesterone, GABA, and sleep disruption 09:04 – What mitochondria actually do and why they matter 13:16 – The 6% metabolic health statistic 17:00 – The sympathetic spiral of doom, explained 21:01 – Cortisol: misunderstood and mismanaged 29:32 – What methylene blue is and how to use it 33:55 – Who should not take methylene blue 38:33 – Performance, travel, and targeted use 47:17 – GABA support and down-regulating the nervous system 55:18 – Hyperbaric oxygen therapy: benefits, timing, and protocols 01:00:52 – One action to take today 01:03:09 – Where to find Dr. Scott and his products Guest Links: Dr. Scott Sherr: drscottsherr.com Troscriptions: troscriptions.com Use code LIVINGWELL for 10% off Products mentioned: Just Blue, Blue Cannatine, Tro Calm, Tro Zzz This episode is brought to you by Good Health Saunas.

Jim Love covers three headlines for June 10, 2026: OpenAI has filed confidential paperwork for a US IPO, with Reuters suggesting it could come as early as September amid a broader wave of potential blockbuster listings also involving Anthropic and SpaceX; the report reviews OpenAI's shift from non-profit to commercial powerhouse, prior governance turmoil around Sam Altman, planned conversion to a public benefit corporation, and disputed private-company revenue/user figures compared with Anthropic. Meta is aggressively rebutting a Wired report that found facial-recognition references in smart-glasses software that reportedly disappeared after inquiry, amid rising scrutiny of always-on recording and proposed notice laws. Kevin O'Leary apologized for missteps around Utah's Wonder Valley AI data center plan, which has been cut roughly in half after local opposition focused on water transfers, power, costs, and environmental impacts. 00:00 Headlines and intro 00:29 OpenAI files for IPO 02:14 OpenAI vs Anthropic numbers 03:35 Meta denies facial recognition 04:50 Smart glasses privacy backlash 05:58 Kevin O'Leary data center apology 07:02 Wonder Valley water and power fight 07:49 Lessons for AI infrastructure 08:54 Wrap up and support the show

There's a game Cava Menzies plays with her students. She asks each of them to say a word — snowfall, nightmare, dragons — and then she translates it into music on the piano right in front of them. Every time, something magical happens in the room. In the tenth and final episode of our Wired to Create series, Cava — musician, educator, and founding faculty at Oakland School for the Arts — makes the case that music isn't a talent reserved for the few. It's a birthright we've somehow talked ourselves out of using. Please share this episode with anyone in your life who has decided music isn't for them.

EPISODE SUMMARY What happens when outward success hides inner burnout? In this powerful conversation with entrepreneur, resilience coach, and author Tracy Doyle, we explore the hidden cost of high performance, the emotional toll of ambition, and why so many successful people feel disconnected despite achieving everything they thought would make them happy. Tracy shares her journey from childhood trauma and instability to becoming an award-winning CEO, then hitting a breaking point that forced her to confront burnout, relationship strain, and unresolved emotional patterns. We dive into the psychology of success, trauma-driven ambition, perfectionism, emotional wellness, and how to rebuild a life rooted in peace instead of pressure. We discuss Tracy's book Life Storms: Finding Your Clear Sky and the practical tools behind her Aurora Method—a framework designed to help high achievers break destructive patterns, heal burnout, and reconnect with themselves and the people they love. If you're interested in burnout recovery, mental health, emotional resilience, trauma healing, entrepreneurship, self-development, women's leadership, relationships, or peak performance, this episode is packed with insight.   WE TALKED ABOUT … The connection between burnout, trauma, and identity … Why success can become an addiction that never truly satisfies … The version of yourself that may need to die for healing to begin   EPISODE NOTES Tracy Doyle is an entrepreneur, author of Life Storms: Finding Your Clear Sky, and emotional wellness advocate whose work sits at the intersection of business achievement and personal transformation. Her journey — from a childhood shaped by trauma and instability, to award-winning CEO, to resilience coach — is living proof that our deepest wounds can become our greatest purpose. The first in her family to graduate college, Tracy earned a bachelor's degree in psychology and counseling before building a standout career in the pharmaceutical industry. She founded and led a multimillion-dollar medical communications company — earning the regional Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award and recognition from Forbes, Entrepreneur, and Inc. — before answering a different call. Behind the accolades was a truth she couldn't ignore: the cost of high performance. Emotional burnout and disconnection had quietly eroded her relationships and personal fulfillment. That breaking point became the catalyst for everything that followed — including the Aurora Method, a psychology-informed, mindfulness-based framework that helps people understand what drives their relationship conflicts and emotional burnout, break the patterns keeping them stuck, and restore connection with themselves and the people who matter most.   Links: www.tracydoyle.life Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61569971194280 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tracydoyle.life/ Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-doyle-aurora-co/   Get the book: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/AUDIBLE/dp/B0G542Z245   ------------ Click this link to listen on your favorite podcast player and if you enjoy the show, please leave a rating & review: https://linktr.ee/wiredforsuccess ------------------ Music credit: Vittoro by Blue Dot Sessions (www.sessions.blue) ----------------- Disclaimer: Podcast Episodes might contain sponsored content.

I don't tend to use the word "periodizing" for the project of This Is Your Afterlife, but when I ask my guests, "What's your coma?," I'm absolutely "categorizing the past into discrete, quantified, and named blocks of time for the purpose of study or analysis" (thanks, Wikipedia). Periodization is the explicit project of The Return of the 90s: A Cultural History of the Present, a new book edited by Sean O'Brien and TIYA friend Madeline Lane-McKinley. In another two-episode week, I'm talking to them about this cultural criticism project and personalizing it. What world did the 90s leave us with? What do we make of the decade's resurgence? And what does it mean if the world we remember never existed in the first place?First up is Sean's solo episode, in which I roll out the purple carpet to give him the same TIYA treatment Madeline got with her solo episode. Then on Friday, I talk to them both in a more free-form conversation about the book, so stay tuned!We talk: an intro to Marxism, the need for sleep, WIRED magazine, afterlife as anti-work utopia, prostrating at the altar of academia, lessons he learned from watching his mother die with grace.Support the show and get the TIYA After Dark feed on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/thisisyourafterlifeThe Return of the 90s: A Cultural History of the Present:https://www.plutobooks.com/product/the-return-of-the-90s/Follow Sean and find out about book events:https://twitter.com/sean_obeehttps://www.instagram.com/sean_ob/Listen to Sean on Genre Reveal Party!, my movie podcast with Madeline:https://pod.link/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5jYXB0aXZhdGUuZm0vZ2VucmUtcmV2ZWFsLXBhcnR5Lw/episode/N2VkOTY1M2ItOTgwMy00OWQwLWIyZmQtYzdlNDA2M2QyYTlmFollow/contact This Is Your Afterlife:https://thisisyourafterlife.com/https://www.instagram.com/thisisyourafterlife/thisisyourafterlifepodcast@gmail.comMusic by TIYA house band Lake Mary:https://lakemary.bandcamp.com/https://www.instagram.com/chaz.prymek/Artwork by Matt Sage:https://www.instagram.com/matthewjsage/

In this episode our conversation centres on cortisol—the hormone at that is the key navigator of your stress response—and why so many people feel exhausted, wired, and out of sync… even when they think they are doing everything “right.” In this episode, we explore what cortisol is, how cortisol works, what happens when your stress response becomes dysregulated, and why conventional approaches often miss the bigger picture. We'll also break down how functional testing can reveal patterns that standard labs overlook—giving you a clearer, more complete understanding of what your body needs to heal and perform at its best. My guest today is Elizabeth Gaines, Director of Education at Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN), where she leads curriculum design, live training and mentor development for one of the world's most respected functional health certification programmes. For more than a decade, Elizabeth worked in nonprofit trauma recovery, supporting victims of domestic minor sex trafficking. The relentless pace and emotional toll led to burnout and chronic illness. When conventional medicine dismissed her symptoms she turned to FDN, where she discovered how to uncover hidden healing opportunities through functional lab testing and personalised protocols. The approach helped her reclaim her energy, clarity and sense of purpose. Learning Points: • What cortisol actually does in the body when it's working properly • How functional lab testing changes the way we understand cortisol compared to standard testing • What the most important markers are to look at when assessing stress physiology Social Media: Website - https://www.functionaldiagnosticnutrition.com/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/FunctionalDiagnosticNutrition/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fdntraining/ You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7xDnEKCe9gKeWZ2vbE3C8w Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/company/san-diego-natural-health-&-fitness-ctr/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/FDNtraining Podcast - https://www.functionaldiagnosticnutrition.com/health-detective-podcast/

Paul Ford likes to call himself a “fun Cassandra” — someone who, like the priestess in Greek mythology, sees trouble coming, but unlike her tries to make the warning as entertaining as possible. He's the writer, developer, and co-founder of the tech agency Aboard who saw Claude Code drop last November and immediately understood it was going to change everything — while finding, to his surprise, that most people around him simply weren't seeing it that way. This is a preview of a premium episode. Find the full interview on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/paul-ford That same instinct is what drew him into AI early. Where others hedged, Paul dove in — vibe coding nonstop, running full enterprise subscriptions for his entire team, and building in earnest. But he's not a fanboy. He's a critical optimist who believes something important is happening, while holding equal concern about the companies pushing it, the students expected to learn from it, and the decades of hard-won knowledge that might be quietly evaporating in the rush. Paul is also an English major who sold an agency, a developer who thinks in prose, and a father of 14-year-old twins — one of the most multi-disciplinary thinkers we've had on the show. He won the National Magazine Award for writing an entire issue of Bloomberg Businessweek dedicated to explaining programming to a mass audience — a 38,000-word essay called “What Is Code?” A regular contributor to Wired and published in The New Yorker and MIT Technology Review, he's one of the rare writers who can make the inner workings of software feel urgent and human. He's exactly the kind of thinker this moment needs: someone who can write code and read the room, and who cares about quality as much as velocity. He can also make you laugh while explaining why you should probably be a little worried. Bio One of the world's leading technology thinkers, Paul Ford has written about the way that software works for dozens of publications like Wired, Businessweek, and the New York Times, including his National Magazine Award–winning Bloomberg cover story “What Is Code?” After years of writing about technology, Paul decided to do something about it, co-founding Postlight and Aboard to help deliver quality products to the people who need them.

Does the history of drugs tell us something bigger about the world? That's what former Wired executive editor and UC Berkeley Senior Impact Fellow Thomas Goetz is betting on with his new podcast Drug Story. He joins Claudia to talk about how big drug breakthroughs have shaped how we live and what it will really take to build health in our society.Thomas and Claudia dive into:Fluoride: The paradox of public health success becoming invisibleWhy modern culture medicalizes ordinary human experiences like sleep, aging & energyHow public health needs to communicate differently, think bigger, and position itself as essential infrastructure for everyday healthThomas says the illusion of free will makes consumers feel like unhealthy choices are their choice alone:“There is some agency, like somebody decides to take a cigarette out of the pack. People decide whether to have a Coke instead of a glass of water or what have you. But there's also this vast machine, an invisible universe that is so powerful in compelling us from the commercials that are on our TV shows to the infrastructure of fast food in our neighborhoods. And it just is this easy inertia where oftentimes we don't actually have free will… We have much less free will than we think we do when it comes to things like what we eat, how we get our entertainment, where we live. There's a lot that is not really up to us and our choices.”Relevant LinksListen to Thomas Goetz's podcast Drug StoryAbout Our GuestsThomas Goetz is an award-winning science journalist and author.

Send us Fan MailThe Neuroscience of Manifestation: Why Manifestation Stops Working (And What To Do Next)You've done the inner work. You've manifested before and it actually worked. But the deeper you've gone into your spiritual practice, the more you've run into a strange wall. The techniques that used to deliver just don't anymore. You feel like you can't move forward the way you used to, even though you're more capable and more aware than you've ever been.If that's where you are, I want you to know you're not failing and you're not broken. You've hit a stage that almost nobody talks about, and there's real science behind it as well as a spiritual side that's been described for thousands of years.The short version is this. You don't attract what you want. You attract what your brain is wired for. The old techniques stopped working because they were built on old conditioning. So the answer isn't to try harder. It's to change what you're actually able to perceive.In this episode I walk through the whole thing:Why manifestation tends to stop working the deeper you go, and why that plateau is usually a sign you're growing rather than a sign something's wrong.The two-kitten experiment, a piece of neuroscience that explains why smart, capable people can stay completely blind to opportunities sitting right in front of them.How your brain builds the reality you experience out of your past conditioning, and what quantum physics adds to that picture.Where the science lines up with spirituality. Maya, the veil, the dark night of the soul, awakening. Not as poetry, but as a fairly literal description of how perception works.And a simple four-part practice you can start now. Regulate, reconnect, decide, and become present, so you can release the old conditioning, shift your state, and start manifesting with ease again.This one's for you if you've built something real, you can feel there's more, and you're ready to stop forcing things and start seeing what's already there.A few questions this episode answers:Why has manifestation stopped working for me?Why do I feel stuck even though I'm capable and self-aware?Is feeling lost a normal part of spiritual growth?What is the dark night of the soul, and what comes after it?How do I move forward when my old tools no longer work?Go deeper with the free masterclassThis episode names the wall. The masterclass takes you through it. If you're a driven person who knows there's more but keeps hitting the edge of your old programming, this is the exact process I use with clients. We calm the nervous system, release the conditioning sitting underneath the plateau, and rewire how you see what's possible, so opportunities start flowing again.

What if a high school student could spend their day fixing a plane, machining a part destined for a rocket launch, or building a house that a family will actually live in? At the Cherry Creek Innovation Campus (CCIC) in the Denver metro area, that's just a Tuesday. In the ninth episode of our Wired to Create series, Principal Steve Day makes the case that when you stop underestimating teenagers and give them something real to do, everything changes — for the students, for the school, and for the families whose lives are transformed as a result.

The addictions, the near-failed marriage, the burnout he couldn't grind his way out of — all of it traced back to one thing: unmanaged ADHD and a nervous system that had never learned to rest.In this episode, we cover:Why the highly successful but quietly suffering ADHD professional never feels like enoughThe real neurological link between ADHD and addictionWhy zone two cardio is non-negotiable for ADHD nervous system recoveryHow to use exercise to rehearse high-pressure moments before they happenThe "double tab" awareness method and how it breaks the shame-avoidance cycleWhat it actually takes to go from knowing what to do to doing itIan is opening his H2 group coaching cohort on July 1st, and all of June is FREE for early sign-ups.Connect with Ian:

A mom makes breakfast in her kitchen, an American flag behind her, and tells you how AI helps her stay organized and why it matters that we keep building it here in the US. It feels like a real person sharing a real opinion. It isn't. She was paid up to $5,000 to read a script — and she was told specifically not to reveal who was funding it. Once you know that, you can't watch your feed the same way again. In this episode, I pull apart a campaign that Wired exposed: a $140 million super PAC and its dark-money arm, backed by some of the biggest names in AI, quietly paying lifestyle influencers to make you afraid of China. But I'm not standing on the outside of this looking in. I use AI every single day, I love it, I built an entire challenge around it… and the same companies building the tools I rely on are running a fear campaign to keep me compliant. So I trace the machine all the way back to a Cold War lie most Americans have forgotten — and I hand you the one test I now run on my own marketing to make sure I never end up on the wrong side of that line. Key Highlights: ◼️The “Doom Loop” — how fear creates urgency, urgency creates permission, and permission creates money… and the $500B “Stargate” announcement the whole loop was built to justify ◼️The $140M “Leading the Future” super PAC and its dark-money arm paying influencers $5,000 a video to deliver scripted anti-China talking points — with explicit instructions never to disclose who's paying ◼️The forgotten 1957 “missile gap” — how defense contractors and a presidential campaign manufactured a Soviet threat the classified briefings proved never existed, running the exact same two-belief playbook ◼️”Manufactured inevitability” — the persuasion move of eliminating every option except the one that profits the seller (build faster… or the enemy wins) ◼️The “Disclosure Test” — the single question to run on your own urgency: if your audience knew exactly how and why you created it, would they still respect you? Here's what makes this so hard to see: the most dangerous propaganda always has a kernel of truth buried inside it, because the truth is what makes the lie invisible. China is real. AI is real. And the fear is being engineered by the exact same companies that win the contracts when you give in to it — all of it true at the same time. The machine runs on fear, and right now $140 million is being spent to keep you locked inside the loop. So now that you can see it, the only question left is the one that actually matters: are you going to let it run you… or are you going to learn this technology well enough to build something of your own? ◼️AI SECRETS CHALLENGE: Most people are either afraid of AI or using it as a toy. Russell built a challenge that teaches you how to actually MAKE MONEY with AI — not just be productive, but build real income.

What if the most powerful thing you could do for your child's brain development has nothing to do with them at all? This episode is for any parent who has worried about screen time, big emotions, or whether they're doing enough — and hasn't realized that the most direct path to a flourishing child runs straight through their own mind. I'm joined by Dr. Richard Davidson, neuroscientist, founder of the Center for Healthy Minds at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and author of Born to Flourish. What you'll learn: Why neuroplasticity is happening to your brain right now whether you want it to or not  The four pillars of flourishing (awareness, connection, insight, and purpose) and the research-backed reason five minutes a day is enough to change your brain. Why flourishing is contagious — and what that means for the hardest kids, the most overwhelmed parents, and everyone in between.

AI was supposed to cure disease, solve climate change, and usher humanity into a futuristic utopia. Instead, some people are now asking ChatGPT if they should cheat on their spouse with their Pilates instructor. In this episode, I dive into Alessandra Ram's incredible Wired article, “Meet The Sad Wives of AI,” and explore the strange psychological fallout of the AI boom: founders treating chatbots like children, relationships collapsing under nonstop “vibe coding,” and people outsourcing emotional intimacy to machines that endlessly validate them. We unpack why this tech boom feels different from the Gold Rush or dotcom era, why AI may be more psychologically dangerous because it talks back, and what happens when the people building “human connection” tools stop connecting with actual humans.Subscribe to The Zach Show 2.0 to gain early access to all future episodes, exclusive AMAs, the ability to suggest guest questions, bonus content, and more: https://thezachshow.supercast.com/The Zach Show Links: The Zach Show 2.0: ⁠https://thezachshow.supercast.com/⁠Spotify: ⁠https://spoti.fi/3zaS6sP⁠YouTube: ⁠https://bit.ly/3lTpJdj⁠Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/auxoro/⁠TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@zachshowpod⁠ Website: ⁠https://www.auxoro.com/⁠Substack: ⁠https://thezachshow.substack.com/⁠If you're not ready to subscribe to The Zach Show 2.0, rating the show on Spotify or Apple Podcasts is free and massively helpful.

There's a version of education that produces brilliant test-takers and has very little to do with learning. Aditya Vishwanath, Stanford-trained education researcher and co-founder of MakerGhat — a nonprofit makerspace network operating in thousands of schools across India — knows that version intimately, and has spent his career building the antidote. In this episode of our Wired to Create series, he and Kelly make the case that what kids need most might also be the thing we've neglected to give them. To connect with Kelly and get a list of her weekly takeaways, join Kelly's free Substack. This episode was made possible by a grant from the Walton Family Foundation.

Joseph Goldstein is a cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies, both in Barre, Massachusetts. He is the author of many books including, most recently, Dreamscapes of the Mind.  In this episode we talk about: Why desire and wanting can keep us stuck in cycles of dissatisfaction The difference between momentary pleasure and deeper happiness A practical way to watch cravings arise and pass without reacting Why "not wanting" can feel surprisingly relieving The Buddhist framework of gratification, danger, and escape How to think about contentment and the question: how much is enough? The difference between guilt and wise remorse How desire, lust, and craving can distort judgment Join Dan, Sebene Selassie, and Jeff Warren for Meditation Party, a 3-day immersive retreat at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY, October 16–18.
