Joey Klein is the author of the books 'The Inner Matrix' and 'Relationship Alchemy'. Joey grew up in pain, full of rage, unfulfilled, numbing himself with drugs and alcohol. It was a dark time - his relationships imploded, and he didn't care if he lived or died. Finally, he reached his breaking point and set himself on a quest to find the peace and the fulfilment he craved. He achieved this through an in-depth study of the world's ancient wisdoms: meditation, martial arts and spiritual traditions, along with the modern sciences: neurology, epigenetics, mindfulness, and psychology. The sheer breadth and depth of Joey's journey and his transformation make this a very compelling conversation.

Jenn Donahue is a warrior. On the battlefield, in business, and in the fight against self-doubt. A retired U.S. Navy Commodore, she commanded thousands of troops across multiple deployments, including overseeing the construction of a bridge across the Euphrates River during the Iraq War and leading an 800-person battalion in Afghanistan. We discuss 'Becoming the Warrior', her book on learning to overcome the internal roadblocks that impede our success and how we can harness inner strength, silence our self-doubt, and live with and/or silence our internal voices. After decades of commanding teams and making high-stakes decisions, she brings fascinating insights to this conversation.

​Dr. Paul Taylor is a psychophysiologist, host of the popular 'Hardiness' podcast, and the award-winning author of the book 'Death by Comfort'. Paul has also recently completed his PhD in applied psychology. In this conversation, we discuss his new book, 'The Hardiness Effect', and explore his research on how to boost our psychological and physiological hardiness and cognitive fitness. Paul is very evidence- and fact-based, blending academia with real-world experience, grounded in his background as a former Royal British Navy Air Crew Officer trained in anti-submarine warfare, helicopter search and rescue, and combat survival. His work also draws on the Stoics and many other great philosophers of the past.
