"There have been shows where I have had to get out of my own way to enjoy what I've just done." - Josh Groban

Josh Groban reveals the haunting reality behind his soaring career - standing ovations that feel hollow, crushing performances followed by hour-long shame spirals where he can't speak to anyone. The Grammy-nominated artist opens up about the terrifying disconnect between external triumph and internal torment, describing how the very adrenaline that makes him brilliant on stage can leave him feeling "too wide open" to darkness afterward. At just 16, he was singing emotionally complex music for audiences who had lived experiences he hadn't, setting up a psychological pattern where success always felt borrowed, temporary, like someone might discover he didn't belong.

This raw conversation cuts through the mythology of achievement to expose what happens when your biggest victories coincide with your deepest struggles. Josh's honesty about going into "low power mode" after performances, his jealousy of artists who can celebrate their wins, and his fear of being "found out" will resonate with anyone who's ever felt like a fraud in their own success story. His journey toward learning to stay present for his achievements offers hope for anyone trapped between what the world sees and what they feel inside.

"I define addiction as a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure, and relief from addiction often involves a progressive expansion of the things that give them relief." - Andrew Huberman

There's a reason why achieving everything you thought you wanted can leave you feeling hollow inside, asking "now what?" Andrew Huberman breaks down the fascinating science behind why our brains get stuck in endless pursuit mode, chasing the next dopamine hit while losing the ability to appreciate what's right in front of us. He reveals how addiction isn't just about substances - it's about any pattern that narrows our capacity for joy, turning life into a tunnel vision chase for the next temporary high. But here's what's revolutionary: your brain has two distinct reward systems working simultaneously, and most people only know how to activate one.

This isn't just neuroscience theory - it's a roadmap for recalibrating your entire relationship with satisfaction and ambition. Huberman explains how the dopamine system drives us toward external goals while the serotonin system helps us find contentment in what we already possess, and why both are essential for a fulfilling life. You'll discover why gratitude isn't just positive thinking but actually a biological reset button, how abundance mindset literally rewires your neural pathways, and the specific practices that can expand your capacity for pleasure instead of shrinking it. This conversation will change how you think about motivation, achievement, and what it truly means to feel fulfilled.
