“Nothing about them without them.” Sometimes you hear stories about the horrors of what people go through in other parts of the world and it just seems hopeless. Who are you to help change traditions and practices that have existed for centuries? And why would people listen to you as an outsider? These questions and […]

“Your activity needs to flow from your identity.” It seems that A LOT of people struggle with the question, “What should I do with my life?” So I was really interested to have a conversation with today’s guest, Jeff Goins, because that very question is at the heart of his new book, The Art of Work. […]

Over the next few months, we’ll be testing a few different show and segment ideas. Not to replace our current weekly in-depth interviews, but to potentially add to them. Yes, you heard right. There just might be more GLP to engage with on a regular basis, real soon. And, today’s our first experiment, with a […]

Everything you’ve been told about building and breaking habits may well be wrong. Or, at the very least, missing a critical middle step. In this week’s episode, we bust myths and share how to do it right (hint, there are 4 different approaches and if you choose wrong, you will fail). Creating good habits is […]

As busy, productive humans living in the 21st century, one of our most common responses to the question “How are you?” is “Fine. Busy.” Especially if you’re a New Yorker. And it’s true. We are. But have you stopped to think about what you fill your time with that makes it slip through your fingers […]

“Someone who is stressed out needs mental health as much as someone who has bipolar disorder.” There are few subjects as delicate as mental disorders and the best way to treat them. I’m guessing most of us tend to avoid the topic in general, we’re pretty ignorant about what is involved. Until it affects us […]

“When you take art, the thing you are actually learning to do is to see.” Do you remember being a kid and loving to draw? But at some point early on you learned that your art wasn’t good enough? So you stopped. What if you had learned a different story? That your art WAS good, […]

Have you ever made a deal with God? I’m guessing that’s a yes. It’s pretty common to get to a place in your life where you want to something so much that you’re willing to give up anything in exchange for it. But what happens in this scenario typically? In the words of today’s guest, “Essentially […]

“PTSD is less of a brain event than an existential event.” We’ve all heard of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, but we may not realize that we probably all know someone who suffers from it. While it is typically associated with war and soldiers coming home after combat, trauma is a big part of civilian life. […]

“People who are not listened to need those who are listened to to fight like hell for them.” How many times have you heard an inspiring story of incredible service and heart and then thought, “How does that even get started?” Probably a lot. Because the truth is, most of us would love to create […]

Chris Kresser is a leading voice in functional and integrative medicine and a New York Times bestselling author of The Paleo Cure. He maintains a wildly popular, research-driven website and a clinical practice in Berkeley, CA that has been largely closed to new clients for the last 3 years, because he just can’t handle the […]

It’s sooo wonderful to be back from our holiday season hiatus! And, do I have a powerhouse conversation to share with you today… By the time she got out of high-school, Terri Cole described her liver as being “pickled” by mass amounts of black-out inducing alcohol. But it would be a few more years until […]

I’m rarely stunned. But this was one of those times… Lewis Howes is a radiant, towering hulk of a human being. Driven, energized, magnetic and successful. I’ve known Lewis for a number of years now and consider him a good friend. When he came to me earlier this year to share a dark, incredibly-painful secret […]

This week’s episode is a replay of a powerful conversation I had with famed author and grounded theory researcher Brene Brown. Brene and I met a few years back while speaking at a conference together. We clicked immediately, grabbed lunch and laughed a lot. I asked her to come share a bit of her journey […]
