Episode 327. Metaphors, meaning and music

This episode is a field report from the last month of my life.
I unpack the three principles currently organising how I think, work, and make decisions. I share what surfaced during my annual psychedelic trip and the unexpected clarity it brought. I reflect on a fresh discovery about the wonder of music and why it has moved me more deeply than I anticipated.
I also explain my favourite coaching tool, one that has created significant breakthroughs for several clients recently, and why I keep returning to it.
Running through all of this is a central theme: truth and capacity.
Most people say they want freedom. But in my experience, we dramatically overestimate our ability to handle the truth about ourselves. We say we want to be free, yet when faced with the reality that would make us free, we defend, minimise, or look away.
Freedom is not relief. It is exposure. It requires the nervous system strength to sit with what is real without collapsing or compensating.
I also share a quiet milestone for The Insecurity Project as I bring another coach into the fold for 2026.
This is part philosophy, part reflection, part behind-the-scenes look at how I’m currently organising my life and work.
As always, take what’s useful. Leave what isn’t.
