Philip McKernan (@PhilipMcKernan) is a speaker, filmmaker, and author of One Last Talk: Why Your Truth Matters and How to Speak It and Rich On Paper Poor On Life: 3 Paths To More Meaning (And Money). What We Discuss with Philip McKernan: Do you rarely follow the life advice you'd give -- without hesitation -- to others? Why doing what you're good at isn't always a match for what makes you feel good. How honest vulnerability (not dinner party oversharing) helps you gain insight into what makes you tick and gives your life meaning. Why people travel thousands of miles and pay thousands of dollars for clarity about their own situation they don't actually want. The deep lessons you can learn about yourself in 15 minutes from Philip's One Last Letter exercise. And much more... The folks at BiOptimizers understand why you're skeptical about probiotics as a way to increase your digestive and gut health.

What We Discuss with Shawn Achor: Positive Peer Pressure: having great people around you can help make you great (and is an even better predictor of success than qualities like grit and resilience).

What We Discuss with Jason Khalipa: You don't have to start out with "The Right Stuff" to accomplish great things. Is your confidence earned or perceived?

Can you take a joke and use it to make your life better? Jason Khalipa has -- and he can tell you how. And much more...

How soon we can expect artificial intelligence (AI) to drastically disrupt the jobs we take for granted today. What can humans do to prepare for a future where their livelihoods might be taken over completely by AI? Should we fear what we're losing in such a future, or embrace the opportunities we're gaining?

Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) joins us to deep dive into the elusive subject of purpose -- why you’re not finding it as easily as the so-called experts say you should be, and why you should be following meaning to purpose instead of picking a purpose and hoping it’s full of meaning. [Featured image by Smart] What We Discuss with Gabriel Mizrahi: The difference between purpose and meaning. Why reverse-engineering meaning from purpose is harder (and far less effective) than finding purpose through meaning. What an ER nurse taught Gabriel about the surprising ways meaning can manifest. Why you should be suspicious of what The Cult of Purpose is trying to sell you. The best ways to naturally follow meaning to purpose without forcing an expectation of what that purpose is.
