Summary

While watching my 10-month-old daughter sleep on the baby monitor, I found myself feeling something I didn’t expect: fear. Not for me, but for her. The world feels messy right now… divided, chaotic, and moving fast. 

But instead of letting it get me down, I’m focusing on what I can control. This episode is all about how I’m staying hopeful, making small changes, and how each one of us can choose to build a better future, regardless of global conflict, politics or A.I. layoffs.

 

3 Takeaways:

  • Staying curious is one of the most powerful ways to move forward

  • Making even a rough plan brings clarity when life feels directionless

  • Filtering the noise protects your peace

I'm recording this episode while my daughter is sleeping. I'm watching her on the camera. So who knows

0:15.4

how long I'll have before she gets up. But I've been stressing. I'm not going to lie to you guys about being a father and someone I work

0:23.1

with said to me, he just had a daughter and he said, I'm really worried about my kid's future and it

0:27.8

just got me thinking about it. And so that's what I'm going to talk about today. I'm worried about

0:31.3

my daughter's future. I'm doing it from Barcelona, Spain. We're out here for a few months. And even that's been challenging. Maybe that's

0:38.0

for a whole other episode, but just with the baby and so forth. But it's a weird time to be

0:43.0

alive. I don't know if you're feeling it's weird, but I've been feeling it's weird. So I'm

0:46.1

going to just talk about that today. And what I'm going to that. And hopefully that helps you. Whether you have a

daughter or not, I think that I'm just talking about how the times are weird and what the hell the

We're just in a weird time.

1:15.4

I wonder if do all of our parents say that?

1:16.7

Does everyone's parent be like,

1:19.2

this is such a weird time when I was a kid.

1:21.7

And I noticed I'm saying that because I'm starting to say,

1:26.3

yeah, man, I really thought the music of my teens is the best music like Metallica and Nirvana and Foo Fighters.

1:27.8
