There is a seemingly never-ending amount of literature out there about the power of the perfect morning routine. âWake up at 4am. Workout for 2 hours. Complete an entire dayâs work before 9am.â
The problem is, no âperfectly structuredâ morning routine will work for you unless your why behind it is strong enough. You have to want to do it. Donât adopt somebody elseâs morning routine just because it sounds good.
In this episode, I walk you through what my morning routine looks like, how journaling, exercise, and meditation play into that, and how to create a morning routine that makes you excited to get up in the morning.

I hope you find as much value in this conversation as our Project U participants did!

As high-achievers, we work hard to build careers and businesses that we believe will bring us a fulfilling life. The irony is that we convince ourselves itâs necessary to work hard now so we can enjoy life more fully later. So how do we avoid this trap of simply âgetting through the dayâ in order to appreciate some ever elusive point in the future?
The secret is to create space to learn, work and play, every day.
In this solo episode, I dive into strategies to help you do just that. I also delve into how to increase your self-awareness, so you can identify when youâre depending on external circumstances of happiness. In this way of thinking, we can view life through a more holistic, experiential lens, and ultimately approach our days as opportunities for growth and enjoyment, rather than mere survival or advancement.

When I was first introduced to the concept of meditation, I immediately wrote it off as not being for me. I thought I was too much of a fast-paced go-getter to let meditation slow me down.

This week, Caitlin and I share our personal experiences with meditation and highlight the transformative effects and benefits of finding a practice that works for you. Our conversation extends beyond traditional meditation, touching on alternative spiritual practices such as ayahuasca and psilocybin use. As we explore various paths to spiritual enlightenment, we underscore that the main goal is to create space between thoughts, leading to enhanced clarity and decision-making.

Tune in to discover where true joy comes from and give yourself permission to call off the endless and exhausting pursuit of external success.
