I've had many friends, inspiring thought leaders and incidental mentors on the show before, but I'm super excited to finally bring you a conversation with someone who was my coach for several months, over a very interesting period of my life. Matthew and I connected at a training event where he was guest facilitating, and his energy, insight and inherent thirst for spiritual evolution (his own and others) blew me away. I almost immediately knew I had to work with him. It was a remarkably confron...

In this conversation, my new friend Shawn Phelps, long-term student of the subconscious mind and author of one my new favourite books, joins me on the show to discuss clarity, purpose and the quest for "more", on the great story of our lives. I ask some philosophical and existential questions about self-discovery and mindfulness, and why the heck does it even matter? And Shawn shares her solid framework, and a ton more, that helps apply 20+ years of wisdom to the actual act of gaining more clari...

We all feel like we're crashing close to rock bottom at some point or another in our lives. But what would it be like to feel so destroyed inside that you'd actually drive yourself, at full speed, into a telegraph pole, with every intention of not surviving that crash? And then what would you do if you did survive? On this powerful and punchy episode with my good friend, Simon Clark, we talk about his life leading up to his suicide attempt, his survival, and how he shifted his view after it to n...

After a hiatus, we’re back with the (sort of, kind of, not really) second season of The Life:Optimized Show, and I’m pretty excited to bring a conversation that goes deep into a duality that’s close to my heart. My recently discovered good friend, Josh Denning, joins me to talk about the complex (and sometimes corrupt) world of Internet Marketing and what drives certain entrepreneurs to succeed and some to fail, especially in marketing. We also talk about the eternally mysterious question about ...

This is an in-between-isode (a term I've shamelessly ripped off from The Tim Ferriss Show). It's a relatively shorter audio-essay to check out in between my last episode and my next more long-form conversation with my next guest, which will be coming out very soon. Stay tuned, and in the meantime, let me know what you think of this! You can read the full article here: http://bit.ly/1l1qr4b

What would it be like if you had a comfortable job in the bustling city of Sydney, Australia, surrounded by loving family and friends, and decided to one day - almost for no apparent reason - pack your bags and move to India indefinitely? That's pretty much what my good friend, Michelle Rowan, did when she went from being a successful product manager to a digital nomad, travelling across the vastly diverse and extremely confronting social, cultural and political landscapes of India. You might be...

Have you ever wondered what your life would be like if you had gone down a completely different path to what you chose? Do you ever look at people who seem to have lived such an outrageous life, that you wonder what goes on in their head, and why they even bother? Do you wish you knew how to trust your instincts and live more true to your own expression, and not have to worry so much about what the world around you expects you to do? On this episode, my friend from New Zealand, Dr. Sapna Samant,...
