4d ago50:31

Some people are just born with it. Whether it’s the intelligence you need to thrive, personality traits that make you likable – or your dad owning the company you grow up to become “Chief Servant Leader” of – we all have something going for us. Throughout the 192 (and counting) episodes of Fine Is a 4-Letter Word, I’ve covered stories of pain, stru…

45:06

Being an outsider can be challenging – but it can also be your absolute superpower! We all come into the world as a blank slate with the opportunity to form and grow organically. Taking in the world as you find it before being tethered to a rigid or strongly defined set of predetermined beliefs set for you by others. John Morris started out that wa…

26d ago46:12

46:12

Have you been moving through life feeling like there’s something else out there? You can’t put your finger on it. Even though nothing outwardly seems off, there’s more to the story than you’ve been told or that you can see. Something’s not adding up, but how do you make 2+2=4? For Jill Valdez, this crept up on her in a hundred small ways. Although …

188. Change Is Great (When It Happens To Others) with Suzanne Hopson 44:16

1M ago44:16

44:16

What if… one of your core values that should be empowering turned out to be something that held you back? It’s meant to build confidence to try things. But it becomes a sort of low-key vicious cycle that subconsciously holds you back and curbs your ability to change. That silent boomerang would be ironic for a professional change agent, but that sa…

42:42

So, you think you have it all. A great career, a nice apartment, an 800 credit score. You're officially a grown-up with the adult job. The world looks at you and says, "wow, everything's going your way". It seems like everything's fine. What else could you ask for? But it's not fine. You look around and know something's missing. Maybe you mutter so…

185. Permission to Pause - Why Rest Isn’t Weak: A Special Episode with Lori 27:28

2M ago27:28

27:28

We’ve been conditioned to believe that rest is optional—like guacamole on your burrito. You can have it, but you’ll have to pay extra. Let’s zoom out for a second and look at where this belief came from. The hustle mindset didn’t just show up one day because Gary Vee started yelling about it. It’s deeply rooted in industrial-age values—when your pr…

3M ago52:47

52:47

Perfectionism is something that gets beat into a lot of us. Sometimes literally, as you’ll find out from my guest. Imposter syndrome goes hand-in-hand with perfectionism. You see, when you’re programmed to hold yourself to extremely high standards, nothing you do seems like it’s good enough. You’re not enough. And what if someone finds out? Now ima…

Do you sometimes feel like you’re mailing it in? Sure, you’re achieving your goals, hitting your numbers, and getting boxes checked on your to-do list. On paper, you’re a success.

Situations involving stalking can be a gray area. Does the person mean well but are just awkward in their approach? Are you reading too much into it?

5M ago45:51

45:51

In our society, we don’t know how to talk about a lot of super important things. We don’t learn, because we’re not taught. And that’s due to longstanding beliefs that we’re supposed to handle things a certain way. Think about what happens if your spouse or life partner dies. You’re expected to have a period of enforced mourning. You look weird at b…

44:14

“Life is short” is one of those cliches that gets thrown around with the idea that you should let things roll off your shoulders or not spend time analyzing the past. The truth is, though, that life is longer than you realize because... A person lives on in the memories of those who knew them, are familiar with their stories, and share these storie…

2024 has been quite a year. I spent most of the year as a nomad, traveling throughout the Southeast United States moving from town to town, housesitting for a lot of awesome cats (and a few awesome dogs).

Growing up in the United States, I was fortunate to not know what it’s like to go through a day with bombs falling around me and my dad fighting in the war. For Robin Ayoub, this was his daily reality, and as he would eventually discover, getting away from it was how he found his way home. Imagine being eleven years old and given 24 hours to learn …

You’ve probably experienced sleep paralysis at some point – that weird “twilight zone” where you’re caught between the conscious world and the world of dreams, aware of your surroundings but noticing they have weird shapes.

When it feels like success and fulfillment continue to elude you even when you think you’re doing all the right things and making the right moves, it can be a real mindf*ck. What’s holding you back? What’s the block? Why is it always one step forward, two steps back? Todd Bertsch wrestled with this question for years. He grew up in the 1970s and 19…

In a world where women are told to have it all, do it all, and be it all, the reality they face while actually trying to do these things is far more complex.

Fear often holds you back, even if it doesn’t make sense to be afraid. You can have everything you ever wanted – a fantastic career, creature comforts, money to afford anything you need, plus “f*ck-you money” in the bank that gives you the freedom to not have to do anything you don’t want to.

It’s called “continuous growth” for a reason. When you cut down a tree, or a tree snaps and falls, the rings you’ll see reveal more than the age of the tree based on how many rings there are.
