Episode 10 is live!

This time Welma and I discuss how reconcenpualizong her life within the parameters of an allegory helped her to percieve her life in a more meaningful light.

This was a leviathan of an episode which I'll be releasing in two parts because there was just so much to discuss.

There's a lot to learn from this one. Hope you enjoy.

A big thank you to Welma for this incredible episode.

This week's episode is live!

And it's both fun AND informative🤣

The first half is a dissection of the negative effects of influencer culture on all the general public as well as the health and fitness industry.

The latter half of the show demonstrates less levity and has Leo dropping knowledge on what to eat and how best to train in order to reach your aesthetic or athletic goals in a realistic and informed manner.

Episode 7 is live!

Aside from having a velvet-calm voice and a majestic beard, Matthew Green also happens to be a very wise and articulate man who is trying to make the world a better place using a model of emotional introspection he calls the Shape of Emotion.

Well suited for people who struggle with *anxiety* and seek a way of coping with day to day emotional stressors, Shape of Emotion provides a framework for self-regulating negative affect.

This week it's all about healing and, as I like to call it, being Zen.

Matthew is one of the most calming people to be around as he endeavours to tread lightly, live green, and make the world a better place one mindful group at a time.

Stay tuned✌

At some point we even attempt math, and it's exactly what you'd expect🤣

Enjoy✌
