How To Give Yourself Permission to Live Before It's Too Late with Dr Guy Winch
6/16/20261 hr
I have been wanting to do this episode for a long time. This one is personal. I have spent most of my life grinding, building, and pushing myself to the limit. And somewhere along the way I stopped giving myself permission to actually live. My body was there for birthdays, vacations, and bedtimes. My mind was not. This episode is my attempt to fix that. For me and for you. Dr. Guy Winch is one of the world's leading psychologists. His TED talks have over 40 million views. His book, Mind Over Grind, is one of the most important books I have read in years. He is not here to tell you to slow down and smell the roses. He is here to show you that the way you are working right now is quietly costing you everything that actually matters. And he has the science to prove it. Here is what you will gain from this episode: The #1 Deathbed Regret: Find out what people wish most at the end of their lives and why it is not what you think it is Stop Ruminating: Learn the exact process for turning harmful work rumination into productive problem solving so your evenings belong to you again Micro Breaks: Discover the research-backed practice that high performers use to actually perform better by working smarter throughout the day The Transition Ritual: Get a practical step-by-step system for training your brain to clock out from work so you can be truly present at home Challenge vs. Threat Mindset: Understand the single mental shift that separates people who perform under pressure from people who crumble under it Stop kicking the can. The life you keep saying you will enjoy later is happening right now. Do not miss it.
