Happy November, everyone! 🍁 In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I had the special opportunity to sit down with my dad to talk about his insights on gratitude. We touched on the almost unbelievable benefits it brings, like becoming more agreeable, open, conscientious, warm, trusting, altruistic, and so much more.

But the real value came as the conversation deepened where we explored what truly drives these positive effects, discussing themes like centeredness, motivation, and reexperiencing positive moments in our lives.

This opened my eyes to gratitude in new ways, and I know it will for you too. If anything resonates, I’d love to hear your thoughts—please feel free to leave a review! 😊

In this refreshing episode I talk with friend and fellow podcast host, Brynn Williams, who has some valuable insights about breaking free from comparisons and instead, choosing the experiences and values that bring us personal meaning. I loved hearing about her example in setting her own rules and embracing what truly fulfills her and seeking for failure, and I think you will too. I hope you leave feeling empowered to define your own journey and focus on what matters most to you. As always leave a review if anything resonated :)

Have you ever stopped to question whether what you are doing is truly a result of your desires? In this episode, I dive into the process of discovering what you actually want in life by questioning your values. Drawing from personal stories and René Girard’s memetic theory, I explore how our desires are often shaped by others and why finding clarity in our values is key to a more stable and fulfilling life. I also share practical tips on how to uncover your true priorities, recognize when something feels off, and the courage it takes to listen to your inner voice. Whether you’re a parent, a student, or just navigating life’s noise, anyone should find benefit in the reminder to know your why better.

I hope you walk away with a clearer sense of self and the tools to create a more purposeful path forward! :)
