Why No Is More Powerful Than Yes | Chris Voss
Ep 1967 · Aug 14, 2026 · 1 hr 37 min
You've been taught that YES means you won. Chris Voss says it's usually the moment you get played. The former lead FBI international kidnapping negotiator built a career proving the opposite of what most of us believe about persuasion. NO isn't rejection. It's the moment the real conversation starts. YES, more often than not, is a counterfeit answer people give just to get you off the phone. Voss is the founder of The Black Swan Group and the author of Never Split the Difference, and in this con…
Bruce Lipton: The Program Running 95% of Your Life
Ep 1966 · Aug 12, 2026 · 1 hr 41 min
You've been running on a program installed before you could even talk, and you had no say in writing it. Cell biologist and former medical school professor Bruce Lipton spent his career studying epigenetics and quantum biology, and he says your subconscious recorded almost everything about how to live before age seven. That program runs 95% of your day on autopilot, and you're the one person who can't see it while it's playing. Stress hormones don't just make you anxious. They shut down your imm…

Ep 1962 · Aug 3, 2026 · 1 hr 13 min
A calm, healthy relationship can feel more dangerous to you than the chaos you grew up in. That's hypervigilance. It hates the absence of a threat, so it manufactures one, even when you're finally safe. Patrick Teahan, a clinical social worker and childhood trauma educator, breaks down why your body still reacts like it's protecting a nine year old. You're not overreacting. You're replaying. Teahan explains how most people experience the present entirely through the lens of childhood, filtering…

Ep 1961 · Jul 31, 2026 · 2 hr 16 min
A clinical hypnotist told him the problem in one sentence. You don't believe, at a subconscious level, that you were meant to be successful.

The Real Reason Stress Is Hurting You | Kelly McGonigal
Ep 1958 · Jul 24, 2026 · 1 hr 36 min
Your body can't tell the difference between anxiety and excitement. The only difference is the story you tell yourself. Kelly McGonigal has spent her career at Stanford studying that story, and how the way you think about stress can quite literally change your biology, your relationships, and how long you live. She will show you why the fear of stress may be more dangerous than stress itself, and why one built in instinct can stop you from burning out completely once you know how to trigger it.…

The Golden Equation That Turns Desire Into Reality | David Bayer
Ep 1954 · Jul 15, 2026 · 1 hr 17 min
The gap between what you want and where you are isn't bad luck. It's a belief you made as a kid. David Bayer, author of A Changed Mind, calls it the Golden Equation: desire plus non-resistance equals your result. The block isn't the wanting. It's the meaning you attach to not having it yet. Somewhere between 40 and 60, the exact strategy that made you successful starts to suffocate you. Bayer calls it the Core Program, the compensation you built around a childhood wound that's finally asking to…

Ep 1952 · Jul 10, 2026 · 1 hr 24 min

Sadhguru: How to Turn Pain Into Wisdom, Not Wounds
Ep 1948 · Jul 1, 2026 · 1 hr 25 min
When something painful happens, you get to make one quiet choice that decides everything after it. Do you become wise, or do you become wounded. That single choice is what Sadhguru, the New York Times bestselling author of Karma: A Yogi's Guide to Crafting Your Destiny, calls the real meaning of karma. Not reward. Not punishment.
