We have one goal, to unlock authenticity.

We believe it's the key to human flourishing.

Let's Write New Rules.

Are YOU lonely?

In a society built for fast-paced communication, with tools to link people together from all over the world, we still find ourselves feeling alone.

In Episode 37, we take the necessary dive into why human beings are a “Loneliness Epidemic.”

In order to solve loneliness, we first must give it an effective diagnosis - which we’ll find by examining the topics below:

  • What are the practical symptoms of loneliness?

  • How we are relationally malnourished

  • Why conflict is a necessary thing, not a bad thing

  • How Adrian personally struggles with feeling alone

  • Why leadership is inherently lonely

  • How do we USE the tools we have been given?

  • How to ‘sit in the mud’ with someone

  • Why do we isolate further when we feel lonely?

  • How would Adrian FIX the loneliness epidemic?

Feeling alone can manifest itself in countless different ways. It is vital that we understand nuance when approaching the loneliness epidemic. 

If you or someone you know is struggling with loneliness, reach out to a friend or a trusted mentor for guidance.

If you find yourself facing depression or suicidal thoughts, you are not alone. Reach out to any of the following resources in times of need:

Our work should be art - a reflection of our authentic selves.

In the last episode, we examined why our work should be deeper than a 'necessary evil.'

But how do we actually push through the challenges required to live out our purpose and calling in this world?

In Part 2 of this 2-Part episode, we discuss why people are hesitant to make necessary changes required to authentically develop.

We'll examine:

  • Why people are resistant to change
  • Why authenticity is incredibly important 
  • The College Football Playoff decision was a disgrace
  • The 'meritocracy' dog-whistle
  • Our work should be food for the soul, not just medicine
  • How we can overdose on work
  • How Adrian's faith shapes his views on work
  • Are you satisfied?

After participating in this discussion with us, we hope you can be one step closer to unlocking your full potential and helping others do the same!

May our art inspire, provoke thought, and pave the way for progress.

Let’s create a legacy that transcends the ordinary and propels us towards a future defined by purpose.

Let our work be a masterpiece, a reflection of our passion and commitment.

 

Embrace the canvas of your life, where your ‘art’ is a manifestation of creativity, purpose, and authentic development . 

 

I've often said that our work should be art - and still be challenging enough to pave the way forward. 

 

In part-one of this two part episode, we discuss how to make art and let others tell the story.

 

- How Rick Rubin inspires Adrian to lead a life of creative development

- Why your work SHOULD be art

- Why having a calling doesn’t remove the ‘grunt’ work

- Dismantling “People just don’t want to work anymore” 

- The Science of Work

- Why placing the organization first is healthy for the individuals within it 

- The structure & discipline required to flourish in any environment 

- Why you should bring dignity to your work 

 

After participating in this discussion with us, we hope you can be one step closer to unlocking your full potential and helping others do the same!

 

May our art inspire, provoke thought, and pave the way for progress. Let’s create a legacy that transcends the ordinary and propels us towards a future defined by purpose.
