116: You Can't Optimize Your Way Out of Being Human

116: You Can't Optimize Your Way Out of Being Human

This episode is for those of you sick with self-optimization content. In conversation, we tackle:

  • The Diary of a CEO clip where three glasses of wine "ruined" Stephen Bartlett for three days
  • Why optimization culture is basically an MLM: your life isn't perfect, so it must be your fault
  • The boundaries problem no one's talking about — everyone learned to set them, no one learned to accept someone else's
  • The controversial take that most people don't need an Oura ring, they need to learn to live without the data
  • The skincare-on-a-plane trend, and why airplane "radiation" is a made-up problem invented to sell you a face mask
  • The lost-kid safety tip that sent Amanda spiraling into everything a "good mom" is now supposed to already know
