Do you ever feel worn down by the need to be better? We’re told to optimise everything — our health, our relationships, our finances, even our productivity. But beneath the green smoothies and gratitude journals lies the same exhausting pressure: do more, be more… you’re not enough.

As one of our clients put it, “All this self-help is killing me.”

In this episode, Daniel Sih and Matt Bain step off the self-help treadmill and ask: What if you don’t need to improve? What if being content—and being enough—is the most radical thing you can do?

Welcome to Season 4 of The Spacemakers—an anti-productivity pod-course to help you unhook from constant striving and rediscover the simple joy of being enough.

How much is enough — and why are we so exhausted by the need to improve ourselves?

We’re told to do more, be more, and measure our progress.

Over time, that quiet pressure adds up, leaving us worn out rather than fulfilled. Season 4 of The Spacemakers explores a deeper question in our self-help-obsessed culture:

What if true happiness isn’t found in more… but enough?

Join Daniel Sih and Matt Bain in this reflective pod-course about making space for a life that is truly enough.

This short trailer offers a glimpse of what’s ahead.

Most people don’t actually know what they want. We chase goals—career success, financial security, personal milestones—only to feel underwhelmed once we get there. Why? Because we rarely stop to ask, “What’s the goal of the goal?”

In the final episode of Season 3, we unpack this powerful concept (popularised by Dan Heath) and explore how the thing we think we need to get unstuck might not be the thing we truly want. Plus, we’ll give you a sneak peek at what’s coming in Season 4. It’s a fitting finale to help you make space for a surprising second act.

Who are you becoming—and who is shaping you along the way?

In this episode of The Spacemakers, Matt and Daniel explore why personal change is rarely a solo journey. From habits to health to mindset, we’re deeply shaped by the people we spend time with. Behaviour is contagious—we mimic what we see, not just what we hear. Which means the fastest way to change yourself is to travel alongside others who are heading where you want to go. Whether it’s forming accountable relationships, finding your ‘right tribe,’ or simply being brave enough to go first and inspire change in others, this conversation will reshape how you think about stuckness. You don’t have to do it alone. And maybe you never were meant to.Discover more:

Action unlocks change. When we choose to act, we build momentum, gain confidence, and receive invaluable real-world feedback. But what happens when you feel overwhelmed, defeated, or uncertain about your next steps? Can action lead to new forms of thinking and help you get unstuck?

In this episode, Matt and Daniel explore the transformative power of tiny habits and the crucial importance of turning talk into action. We feature a segment with Osher Günsberg, who overcame obesity by simply walking between telegraph poles—a tiny decision that eventually catapulted him into a highly successful career in radio and reality TV.

Are you ready to forge into action and experience the compounding benefits of small, consistent actions?

Did you know that people who focus on their strengths tend to be happier, feel more alive, and achieve greater success? Many of us obsess over fixing our blind spots and overcoming weaknesses. But what if the key to overcoming adversity is, counterintuitively, focusing on what is right about ourselves and others, rather than what is wrong?

In this episode of The Spacemakers, Daniel and Matt continue their exploration of the science of strengths. They explore how to find your "fun lane" and share counterintuitive strategies like 'bending' and 'partnering' to overcome weaknesses. Are you ready to harness your strengths and leverage past successes to get unstuck?
