This episode is a little different than most. In this episode, I talk with Nicola Bird. And we’re not talking to you. Nic and I have a conversation, practitioner-to-practitioner, about what it’s like to do what we do. Our “jobs” are essentially to point people toward an invisible realm. To gently turn them away from
Our experience almost always looks like it’s about something, right? It looks to us like we think about stuff. We feel emotions over what happened or about what’s coming up. Human brains love stories. Human experience typically includes a logical storyline and a bunch of reasons for why we’re thinking and feeling the way we
It happens all the time. You hear something and your mind quiets. Maybe something falls away…a habit, a line of thinking, an obsession or worry is no longer there. Life looks and feels different and you’re thrilled. You’re changed! Cured! Fixed! And then–inevitably–thinking comes back. Why didn’t your insight last?!? If you’ve been there, this
Horizontal change starts with what you know, and moves you toward a place you can see. jobs – central casting metaprime how to do a perfect burpee (plus, 2 next-level add ons) It’s linear.

In this episode of Changeable, Jack and I talk about how life is an illusion. What does that mean? Jack and I explore what this great illusion means for our opinions of ourselves, our relationships, our habits…even those glimpses we catch of ourselves in store windows (you’ll see what I mean).

I talk with John El-Mokadem in this episode about massively expanding our concept of what health and wellness really are. We talk about how
Harry claims that all problems in life come from overthinking. All problems? Really? I play devil’s advocate a bit in this one as we discuss the single, common source of all suffering. I love Harry’s personality and the way he talks about this understanding. He is fun and light and always puts the feeling first.
There are so many safety nets built into our human design. Seeing more about how we work…the forgiving, safe, self-correcting, can’t-be-damaged design we’ve all been blessed with…does a lot for us.

Jen had trouble sleeping for a long time. Seeing something about how her experienced worked helped…a lot. In this episode, Jen and I talk about some of the things she came to see about how her mind and body work, and the role the “insomnia” label played in her sleepless nights. Life is fluid. You
What if all of the stuff you think you think…is not really you at all? Your opinions, preferences, obsessions, worries… I know they take up a lot of room in your mind. They sound and feel like you. But when I’m listening to others go on and on about how they feel and what they
