Coming up next on Passion Struck.

Last year, as I was finishing up the book, I was working seven days a week.

And now that I had a big burst of energy on the book tour, that finished, I have a bit of a slowdown period. So I've been working three days a week for this. And that to me feels right. Last year, when I was working seven days a week, nobody asked, are you okay? This year, when I'm working three days a week, people are like, are you okay? Yeah, I'm great. But we're so indoctrinated to believe that going 90 miles an hour

all the time is the way that when somebody slows down to take care of themselves, we think

that's the problem. I think the biggest lie is that the more you work, the more valuable

you are. Welcome to Passionstruck. I'm your host, John Miles.

This is the show where we explore the art of human flourishing

and what it truly means to live like it matters.

Each week, I sit down with change makers, creators, scientists, and everyday heroes

to decode the human experience and uncover the tools that help

us lead with meaning, heal what hurts, and pursue the fullest expression of who we're capable

of becoming. Whether you're designing your future, developing as a leader, or seeking deeper

alignment in your life, this show is your invitation to grow with purpose and act with intention. Because the

secret to a life of deep purpose, connection, and impact is choosing to live like you matter.

Hey friends, welcome back to Passion Struck. I'm your host, John Miles, and this is episode

689, where science meets soul, where data becomes devotion, and where we turn the invisible threads

of human connection into superpowers you can feel in your bones. We're in week two of our series,

Irreplaceables,

rediscovering human worth in an age of acceleration.

If this podcast has ever inspired you

or helped you live and lead more intentionally,

here are two quick ways to help it grow.
