    Dr. K: Feeling Lost in Your 20s or 30s? (THIS Mindset Shift Will Help You Find Direction & Purpose)
    Sep 22 2025
    Do you ever feel lost? What usually helps you find your way back? Today, Jay sits down with @HealthyGamerGG (Dr. K), psychiatrist, meditation teacher, and author of How to Raise a Healthy Gamer, for an eye-opening conversation about why so many young people feel lost and disconnected in today’s world. Together, they uncover the hidden struggles millions face: loneliness, confusion, and the constant pressure of feeling “behind in life,” even when everything looks fine on the outside. Dr. K shares how shifting milestones and rising societal pressures have fueled an epidemic of uncertainty, leaving many to question their worth, direction, and identity. Together, Jay and Dr. examine how ego, technology, and external expectations shape the way we see ourselves. Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and Eastern philosophy, Dr. K explains how the constant search for validation traps us in cycles of comparison and self-criticism. He offers practical tools for breaking free, learning to tell the difference between “thinking about yourself” and truly “paying attention to yourself,” observing emotions without attaching heavy meaning to them, and discovering peace in stillness. This conversation is a powerful reminder that the way out of overwhelm isn’t found in doing or achieving more, but in cultivating clarity and connection within. They dive into the challenges of masculinity, purpose, relationships, and the many forms of modern addiction, from pornography to overwork. Dr. K emphasizes that true healing begins with embracing discomfort, processing the emotions we’ve long avoided, and choosing our own values rather than living by society’s script. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Overcome a Quarter-Life Crisis How to Tell The Difference Between Identity and Identification How to Stop Feeling Behind in Life How to Pay Attention Instead of Overthinking How to Quiet the Ego’s Voice How to Process Painful Emotions Safely How to Build Healthier Relationships with Boundaries How to Reduce the Grip of Technology on Your Mind Growth doesn’t come from racing toward milestones or comparing yourself to others, but from learning to pause, pay attention, and listen to what’s happening within. Every challenge you face can be a doorway to deeper clarity, resilience, and peace. With Love and Gratitude, Jay Shetty What We Discuss: 00:00 Intro 02:08 Are You Having a Quarter-Life Crisis? 06:58 Why You Really Feel Behind in Life 12:35 Thinking About Yourself vs. Paying Attention to Yourself 15:45 Discovering the True Source of Suffering 20:35 Why Chasing Growth Isn’t Real Growth 23:54 Remember You Always Have a Choice 28:50 How to Stop Living for Others’ Opinions 36:00 The Brain’s Natural Ability to Heal 37:29 Learning to Let Go of Ego 43:07 Living in a World Where People Feel Replaceable 46:06 Why Is Modern Dating So Difficult? 51:41 It’s Never Too Late to Turn Your Life Around 54:40 What is True Masculinity Today? 59:57 Common Challenges Women Face Today 01:06:45 Rising from Judgment to Understanding 01:14:04 How to Become a Better Partner 01:17:25 There’s Not Just One Path to Growth 01:28:55 How Emotions Shape Your Behavior 01:37:07 The Hidden Root of Pornography Addiction 01:39:50 The Harmful Effects of Pornography 01:41:46 Steps to Prevent Pornography Addiction 01:43:48 Making Better Choices That Lead to Purpose 01:48:44 Paying Attention Within to Find Clarity 01:51:46 Dissolving Ego Through Service 01:56:02 Dr. K on Final Five Episode Resources: Check out more from Dr.K on the HealthyGamerGG Podcast https://open.spotify.com/show/6VaJwyS2KXxiXqR77jqzmP?si=2fbfbaece86441a4 Dr. K | Website Dr. K | YouTube Dr. K | Instagram Dr. K | X Dr. K | Twitch Dr. K | TikTok Dr. K | LinkedIn How to Raise a Healthy Gamer: End Power Struggles, Break Bad Screen Habits, and Transform Your Relationship with Your KidsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • 8 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Turned 30

    8 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Turned 30
    Sep 19 2025

    What’s the biggest shift you wish you’d made sooner?

    What advice would you give your younger self before 30?

    In this special reflection, Jay opens up about the lessons he wishes he’d known before turning 30, insights that could have spared him time, energy, and unnecessary stress. Now, at 38, he shares eight counterintuitive truths from psychology and human behavior that have reshaped the way he lives, loves, and works.

    From realizing that people think about us far less than we imagine, to understanding that burnout comes more from a lack of meaning than from long hours, Jay invites us to reexamine the subtle habits and hidden fears that quietly drain our lives.

    These aren’t just ideas, they’re practical tools to help you stop overthinking, release old fears, and make choices that align with the life you truly want.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    How to Rely on Discipline Over Motivation

    How to See Most Fears as Echoes of the Past

    How to Use Belonging to Fuel Lasting Change

    How to Prevent Burnout by Finding Meaning

    How to Stop Your Brain From Distorting the Future

    Growth isn’t about waiting for the “right” moment—it’s about shifting how we see ourselves and the choices we make daily. The lessons Jay shares are powerful reminders that every season, good or bad, is temporary, and that true peace comes from living a life of meaning, not perfection.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty

  • Lilly Singh: Stop Trying to Prove Yourself to Everyone Else! (#1 Mindset Shift to Build REAL Confidence & Self-Worth)

    Lilly Singh: Stop Trying to Prove Yourself to Everyone Else! (#1 Mindset Shift to Build REAL Confidence & Self-Worth)
    Sep 17 2025

    Do you feel like you need to prove yourself?

    Who do you think you’re trying to impress?

    Today, Jay sits down with his close friend Lilly Singh for a transformative and deeply honest in-person conversation at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House in Denver. Known for being a trailblazer in digital media and late-night television, Lilly reflects on the hidden challenges behind being “the first”, from navigating cultural expectations to battling loneliness and self-doubt. Lilly shares how much of her early success was driven by the need to prove her worth to others, and how she is now shifting toward proving herself right instead of chasing outside validation.

    Together, Jay and Lilly explore the inner voices we all carry, from the critic to the voice of compassion, emphasizing the importance of practicing daily self-care to balance high standards with grace. Lilly shares her personal rituals such as journaling, naming her inner voices, and reframing failure as growth, while Jay emphasizes the transformative power of reflecting on the past as proof of resilience. Together, they remind us that even in moments of pressure and imperfection, we are not defined by our accomplishments but by the person we are becoming.

    In this interview, you'll learn:

    How to Turn Failure Into Growth

    How to Quiet Your Inner Critic

    How to Practice Daily Self-Compassion

    How to Live with Your Inner Voices

    How to Stop Chasing Outside Validation

    Every challenge you’ve faced so far has proven that you are stronger than you think, and every step forward is a reminder that you are capable of creating a life that feels true to you.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty

I've been listening to On Purpose for over a year consistently, it is my Monday pick me up before work. It's always very motivating and it reminds me that I don't need to scare and stress about Monday, instead, it's a new opportunity to do what I want.

I've also follow Jay's meditation on YouTube and there's a funny experience I 'd like to share. Recently, I've taken a free dive class to experience something new. In order to calm my breath, the first thing that came to my mind was Jay' s voice saying " Calm, Balance & Peace" with the same amount of pauses he always said it, that boosted my courage to dive down into the ocean, to experience the unknown, it was wonderful.

Thank you again for the work that you've done.
