  • Offload Your Obsession (GWTW821)
    Jun 4 2025
    I never considered myself an obsessive person until recently, but in reflection, it's always been part of my life. It's like the cognitive bias called the frequency illusion—officially the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon—where you observe something, like a certain type of car, and then see it everywhere. Obsession is part of me, past and present. When I'm working on a project, whether a short film or changing the exhaust fan in my bathroom, it shows up early and often. I try to visualize how everything will play out. I research what I don't know—poring over instruction manuals, books, and videos—then update my visualization. This behavior has served me well in the past, but lately I've noticed an increase in rumination and anxiety. What if there was something I could do to offload my obsession, so I can have some peace and learn to trust myself in the process?

  • “The Uncommon Way” with Jenna Harrison (GWTW820)
    May 31 2025
    Whenever I talk to people that come at life and business in a unique way, I get excited. Today's guest's business is called The Uncommon Way and says everything about the type of conversation with are going to have today. Jenna Harrison helps highly-driven women create the business that will be their legacy. Sounds awesome, right? In our conversation, she shares what she learned about the need for meaning in her work when she dropped out of the rat race in her 20s and how that shaped the business and life she has built since then. We talk about the power of constraints, how we can train our minds, why we overwork when we know it doesn't work, and her five-step process that high-level entrepreneurs can use to rewire their brains and nervous systems to break past revenue plateaus.

  • Toil in Obscurity (GWTW819)
    May 28 2025
    How do you know that when your moment shows up, you’ll be ready? Earlier this week, I met up with a friend for tea. I purposely waited to record my monologue because I knew something good would come from our conversation; it always does. My friend is widely creative and curious; he is into everything. He uses digital tools to create analog art. At one point, he talked about developing your craft and the importance of toiling in obscurity. You’ve been doing the work. Day after day. Year after year. No awards. Little recognition. Just the casual amassing of a body of work. That's how you know you'll be ready when your moment shows up.
