On This Week's Feedback Friday:

  • You're struggling with overeating and wondering if you quit tracking calories because you lack discipline. You've started therapy but aren't sure if you're making progress fast enough — or what "progress" even looks like. How do you grow without beating yourself up along the way?
  • Jordan shares feedback that illustrates what makes doing this show so worthwhile and fulifilling for him.
  • Gabe and Jordan discuss the good, the bad, the ugly, and the transformative about the past year, including: Dark Jordan's way of dealing with breached airplane window ettiquette, a grandiose corollary about prioritizing now over later (convenience be damned!), learning to say "no" without feeling bad about it, Gabe's expectations vs. realities of hitting the road as a digital nomad, how to make meaning when one's own stories refuse to cohere, disturbing concentration camp kitchen murals, the lessons of failure, coping with crushing loneliness while traveling, turning sap into maple syrup Ken Burns style, and more!
  • Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at [email protected]!
  • Connect with Jordan on Twitter at @JordanHarbinger and Instagram at @jordanharbinger.
