I'd like to recommend a podcast I recently discovered called Getting Better with Jonathan Van Ness.

Each week, Jonathan offers up tips and strategies to help us all thrive and feel more empowered.

In other words, to help us get a little bit better.

Episodes include conversations with self-improvement and wellness experts like Dan Harris,

Gretchen Rubin,

and Dr. Wendy Suzuki, who cover topics like how to feel more confident and optimistic,

how to protect your peace and mental health while navigating online and social media spaces,

and money-saving and investing tips for better financial wellness.

Jonathan is a podcast pro.

Led by their curiosity, they've been bringing us episodes of Getting Curious for almost 10 years.

Now, Getting Curious has refocused into Getting Better, where Jonathan is using their natural curiosity as a tool for personal growth. I especially enjoyed the episode with Yale Lecturer

James Kimmel Jr. on revenge, why your brain craves it and how to break free. Also, neuroscientist

Dr. Wendy Suzuki on memory and the brain-changing benefits of sleep. I'm going to play a 30-second

trailer from the host Jonathan Van Ness so you get a feel

for the show. Do you want a better relationship with yourself and the people around you? Honey,

same. That's why on getting better, I'm talking with the most brilliant folks I can find. We are going

deep to figure out how we can care for ourselves with more joy,

curiosity, and compassion. We're talking mental health, financial wellness, aging brains,

tiny habits, and everything in between. So if you're ready to learn and unlearn and laugh a lot

while we're at it, come join me, Jonathan Van Ness on Getting Better, available on YouTube and wherever you get your

podcasts. Go check it out. We here at Selected Shorts have already picked up a number of helpful

tips and tricks. I hope you enjoy getting better just as much as we have.
