Our team thought it was a great idea to start rewinding previous (but timely) episodes of our show during the times that Mista Yu is away from the microphone. All of these beautiful Blasts from the Past were previously broadcast, but we are sharing them with you at a time when you might need them most. Hope you enjoy the review!

Ever feel like the feed is louder than your own thoughts? We open up about growing tired of social media, the mismatch between promised connection and real-life isolation, and the quiet cost of letting algorithms set our schedule, our mood, and sometimes our worth. This isn’t a rant for clicks; it’s an honest inventory of why we log on, what we hope to find, and how often we trade rest and presence for one more swipe.

We unpack the difference between contact and connection, the way “friends” and “followers” can blur into strangers, and why acceptance can’t be outsourced to a timeline. From late-night doom-scrolling that steals sleep to public pleas that sound like cries for help, we ask hard questions: Is social media your escape from responsibility? The only place you feel seen? Could your craft survive if you posted less or stepped away? Along the way, we share practical ways to set boundaries—time boxes, device-free zones, finite actions instead of infinite scroll—and a simple framework for defining your purpose on each platform.

We also explore creating without the feed. Can a podcast grow off-platform? Yes, but the strategy is different: stronger show notes for search, a consistent publishing cadence, collaborations with aligned hosts, and a focus on owned channels li

Hey, Friends and Family.

Even in the months of the podcast season when things are slow, we have content for you. Our team thought it was a great idea to start reviewing previous (but timely) episodes of our show during the times that Mista Yu is away from the microphone. All of these episodes (or beautiful Blasts from the Past) were previously broadcast, but we are sharing them with you at a time that you might need it most. It seems like people are neglecting their health in some really harmful ways these days. I felt like this episode would be a great support to those who might be in that category. Hope you enjoy this beautiful blast from the past!

Time doesn’t slow down just because our calendars say there’s room next month. We open with gratitude and then get uncomfortably honest about a habit most of us share: drifting through days as if tomorrow is promised. From there, we dig into the difference between potential and purpose, and why potential becomes a cemetery for unwritten books and unstarted projects while purpose turns small, repeatable actions into a legacy.

I share the penny‑doubled thought experiment to expose short‑term thinking, then ground it with a real car‑buying story about operating from want and vision instead of panic and need. That shift changes everything—how you negotiate, how you plan, and how you protect your time. We talk through a practical consistency audit, the hidden cost of scrolling and argument culture, and the way temporary seasons become permanent detours when you stop steering. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a job you “fell into” or caught in loops that don’t move you closer to what matters, this conversation gives you language and tools to break out.

As a former life and business coach and current High Performance Coach, I pull from years of mentoring to outline what it looks like to invest in yourself: build skills that compound, relationships that open doors, systems that protect focus, and a body of work that speaks when you’re offline. We also reflect on timeless wisdom about stewardship, the fragility of life, and making the most of every chance you get. This is a direct, hopeful call to stop gambling with your gifts and start building assets—creative, financial, relational—that serve you a
