  • I love how each guest’s answer to the “which wolf to feed” parable really helps distinguish their thinking and work. Eric’s really thoughtful dialogues and sharing from his own experience help the listener learn and feel like they’re not alone in their search for a life that feels better.

    I enjoyed this episode very much. It resonates with me to a big degree. I am a little unsure what fawning means. I’ll have to research it more.

  • Transformational

    Knowledge is a tool. We can educate ourselves ad nauseam but everything we learn can’t make an impactful difference in our lives unless we put what we know into action. This podcast has helped transform my life through both education and learning how to implement positive action. I recommend Eric’s content to everyone I know and I am forever grateful for how much his work has helped me and my life.

I realize sponsors are an important part of making this kind of content available, but a little editing work would go a long way to make this most listenable. I found it ironic that Eric Zimmerman was commenting o... more

  • Kind, thoughtful and necessary.

    Just listened to the Tara Branch interview; just a beautifully paced, grounded, compassionate conversation. Wonderful depth. No rushed conversation, no performative million miles an hour borderline shouting so many podcasts seem to embrace.

    The ONLY thing I really wish the show would do differently: please cut to commercial at a natural pause in the conversation. The way it happens, right at the edge of a word, cutting off the speaker, is really interruptive and jarring. Takes you out of focus... more
