The Mindset Shift to Create an Abundance of Time

Picture
Laura Vanderkam is a successful author of many time-management and productivity books and a mother of 5 children. Laura's work has appeared in the NY Times, Wall Street Journal, Fast Company and Fortune. Many have an adversarial relationship with time, constantly trying to beat the clock, issues rooted in a fear that time is scarce and must be obsessed over, hoarded, and ultraoptimized. What if there is a different way to view time? One that could make our hours feel abundant. We break down Laura's new book, 'Big Time. A Simple Path to Time Abundance', in which she shares how we can have more than enough time to advance our careers, relationships, hobbies, and health, be a mum to five kids, and more, simply by changing our approach and mindset to time.

Navigating Decision Points at the Intersections of Life

Picture
We began this season inspired by Greek mythology's 12 Labours of Hercules, where he faced the crossroads and chose between the seductive comfort of Kakia and the modern path of Arate. Logan Gelbrich, author of 'Going Right, A Logical Justification for Chasing Your Dreams', owns Deuce Gym in LA—an exceptional group of gyms that promote leadership and higher standards of performance through strength training, strongman, wellness, performance, and group fitness. Going Right serves as a powerful metaphor for growth, setting higher standards, making a mark, and standing out as uncommon. It is a philosophical journey, providing a logical reason to chase our dreams in the season ahead.

Going Beyond Preconceived Barriers - The 12 Labours

Picture
​The legendary Mike McCastle. Inspired by Greek mythology and the 12 labours of Hercules, Mike has achieved a world record by doing 5,804 pull-ups in a day, pulled a 5,000-pound truck across the Mojave Desert in summer, climbed a rope to the equivalent height of Mount Everest in a gym, broke a world record in an ice bath, and recently, the former US Navy SEAL pushed his body beyond every limit, covering more than 4 miles with walking lunges, breaking two world records in the process. We kick off season 7 with the Hercules theme, and as a way to help us realign and reset, this rewind with Mike is an opportunity to remind ourselves of his approach to life, recap his journey, and inspire you to tackle your own 12 labours in 2026.
