Derek's new book is How to Live: 27 Conflicting Answers and 1 Weird Conclusion. It uses a format that made me revisit a concept which I've been thinking about for years, and I wanted to see what it makes him think of. What ensued is a lively discussion containing many fresh ideas about how to live (well)! We covered topics like playfulness, gurus, running in the forest, Lifestyle choices, Kurt Vonnegut, and much more. Book recommendations are in there, too!

Pain (w/ Luke Aymon)
Deep Dive
06/09/22 • 74 min
Luke and I went beyond pointing out the obvious, hopefully, regarding this ancient teacher designed to keep us alive. What happens when pain becomes chronic, and what are some reasons that cause it to be? What can we do to alleviate our pain and make sure we don't pass it down to our children? We touched on many topics that arose from the journey Luke generously and openly shared with me. We mentioned Dr. Gabor Maté and Alex Howard, too.

Dialogue, art, multilingualism, conlangs, and the human mind; perspectives, Truth, connection, concepts as entities, and fiction; physical trips, psychedelic trips, God, isolation, human connection, and the weather.
These all feature is this unique conversation with Norm that culminated with a discussion on how searching - and finding - the truth could alienate one from others, and prove to be detrimental to mental health. Wow.

Agency & Acceptance (w/ Kate Hammer)
Deep Dive
03/31/22 • 82 min
The serenity prayer calls for the wisdom to distinguish between things we can and cannot change. But what is this wisdom, and is it actually possible to always be right? This conversation with Kate centered on techniques and framings to live well in a world that is inconvenient at best and unfair at worst. Some topics that came up were Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man, the indifferent universe, stoicism and CBT, and much more.

Fairytales (w/ Laura Lewis-Barr)
Deep Dive
08/04/22 • 64 min
Fairytales and dreams can help us heal and prosper exactly because they are not as rational as accounts or explanations. And, as you will see, I myself got carried away and am now delivering a slightly different episode. Laura is an award-winning filmmaker I had a million different questions for about the creative process, power of stories, listening to feedback, and much, much more. We also touched on politics, the myth of the phoenix, and ancient Greek poetry.

In this very open conversation I discussed with Rachel the idea of being more in tune with yourself so that you - and others - don't have to suffer unnecessarily. Some of the topics that came up are: Sexuality, sexual assault, following your calling, education, feeling safe, and more.

Play (w/ Reddy2Go)
Deep Dive
08/29/21 • 56 min
Play. We all do it as children, we almost all trade it for a respectable appearance more fitting to mainstream values like success, wealth, and seriousness. But should we?
Reddy2Go is devoting much of his time to playing around, including with the idea of play. His relationship with the concept is not purely positive, as you'll hear, and his story of redemption in inspiring.
Among the other topics we touched on in this conversation are addiction, hedonism, human connection, and aligning one's own good with others'.

Scaling Up (w/ Brooke Bowman)
Deep Dive
04/28/22 • 60 min
In which Brooke recounted the background story that led her to the concept of Scaling Up: Identify what makes you feel well, and make efforts to create a habit (addiction?) out of it while trying to help others do the same. Brooke's recent foray into the world of community organization is a great example of putting a theory into practice.

Tankespjärn (w/ Helena Roth)
Deep Dive
02/24/22 • 71 min
In this conversation, Helena introduces us to Tankespjärn and - don't worry - explains the meaning of it. Helena's personal relationship with the concept started with a dramatic announcement from her ex-husband when she was 9-months pregnant with their child, and it has since then proved to be a reliable companion on her way to living well. I had a great time talking with Helena on agency, decision-making, keeping in mind what we really want, and more.

So, what was this all about? What did I learn, and what am I going to take away from the experience of having 100+ recorded hours of conversation with people who are looking to live well? It’s all in this one... Stay subscribed for any potential future endeavors, as they will be weirder and sillier, no doubt.
Thank you to everyone who was a part of this project, and to everyone who listened. I hope I didn’t waste your time :)
