096 | How to Overcome Life Drift and Live Intentionally

Ninety-five percent of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors happen below your conscious awareness — and that invisible autopilot might be steering you away from the life you actually want. Dominick Quartuccio returns to dissect drift: the slow, unconscious slide away from your intentions and commitments. He shows how to spot it through self-reflection, why resentments and obligations are red flags, and what to do about technology's constant pull on your attention. The conversation covers recognizing unconscious habits, establishing boundaries around devices, and building structured routines that protect your time and focus.
