Ep. 110 - Time Management is Pain Management: How to Be Indistractable - with Nir Eyal

04/26/22 • 52 min

Nir Eyal’s latest book (“Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life”) is an indispensable resource in our uncertain world.

Nir goes beyond just providing good time management tips — although he has quite a few of those — by helping us get to the root of why we get distracted in the first place so that we can actively shift from being distractible to being indistractable.

And the best part is that these strategies are surprisingly simple. They help you take a big problem — planning your work AND life — and break it down into manageable, solvable situations. And while you’re focusing on what you can do tomorrow, you’ll end up building habits that make everything easier in the future.

Ep. 111 - Mogul: Creating a Circular Model for Global Good - with Tiffany Pham

Tiffany Pham is the Founder & CEO of Mogul, the largest platform for diverse talent worldwide. Mogul has impacted over 430,000,000 people across 195 countries and 30,470 cities, and it all started with a desire to create a place where women and minority talent could come together to find opportunities, information, and resources to help their career journeys.

In addition to being a successful entrepreneur who is changing the game when it comes to diversity, equity, and inclusion, she’s also a TV personality, an award-winning film producer, and the bestselling Author of “You Are a Mogul” and “Girl Mogul.”

This episode shares so much of what I want to spotlight on this show: what it looks like when you relentlessly pursue purpose, how that passion can help build a portfolio career and a company that focuses on bringing positive change in the world, and the winding path filled with constant growth that we have to walk down to flourish. Plus, a really lovely story about how her grandmother inspired it all.
