Why You Need Stress to Function at a High Level

Novel experiences shape the brain and foster mental agility. At the same time, routines lead to better efficiency and productivity. So how can you balance the “novel and new” with the “old and repeatable?” In this episode, Steph and Albert reveal how they strategically leverage their routines, while also leaving time to engage in spontaneous, high-stress, or challenging ventures.  They also address what this means for older and/or retired people who lose their mental acuity as they age. They talk about the role of elders in different cultures, and how these elders don’t "retire" in the conventional sense but instead serve as an essential source of knowledge and leadership for the community - a practice that may help them stay mentally sharp.

How to buy back your time (and why you really should)

Delegating. Outsourcing. Reprioritizing. To the average person, these terms might give off a sense of passivity and lackluster effort. But in reality, business success doesn’t have to come at the expense of your freedom. Instead, successful entrepreneurs know how to pass along work that doesn’t inspire them, so they can focus on work that does.  This week’s episode tackles the question, “Does free time have more impact on professional success than time spent working?” According to Wall Street Journal best-selling author Dan Martell, the answer is a resounding “yes.” According to Albert and Stephanie, there’s way more to this topic than meets the eye. Tune in to hear a spirited discussion about how our hosts view this concept, how they create separation between their work and personal lives, and what things they value most from their own free time. (Spoiler: There may be a middle ground for some people, but Albert and Stephanie are definitely sitting on different sides of this debate.)
