    #4- Agency, Creativity, and Intentionality
    May 26 2025

    In a world of autopilot decisions and algorithmic influence, what does it really look like to choose your path?

    In this episode, I dive into the relationship between three powerful traits: Agency, Creativity, and Intentionality — as well as why they matter, and what it takes to increase proficiency.

    We’ll touch on Viktor Frankl’s take on meaning, Elon Musk’s brand of compulsive creation and what we can learn from it-- and how reclaiming your power to choose and take action towards cultivating these traits is your best bet at Becoming.

    Thank you for listening! I hope you enjoyed this episode.

    #3- What the Romans Got Right (That We’ve Forgotten)
    May 19 2025

    Today I talked about the greatest lessons from the Romans. In this episode, we explore what it really meant to “be Roman,” and why that mindset might be exactly what is missing today.

    From Julius Caesar, to Cicero, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius, what can we learn from these ancient powerhouses of history? They left us a roadmap towards betterment, and we all know that Roman roads are impressively effective at passing the test of time.

    May 18 2025

    Today I talked about the Hero's Journey, the archetypes of a hero, and how to live a heroic life.

    What lessons can we learn from the greatest stories, from the timeless legends of history? From Frodo Baggins to Steve Jobs, what common threads bring these figures together, and what can we learn from them?

    In future episodes I'll dive deeper into the individuals. This episode lays the groundwork for that.
