Welcome to Office Hours with PropG. This is the part of the show where we answer questions about

business, big tech entrepreneurship, and whatever else is on your mind. Just a reminder, you can now catch

office hours every Monday and Friday. That's right, two episodes a week. If you'd like to submit a question

for next time, you can send a voice recording to Office Hours of Propvetymedia.com. Again, that's office hours of proffieldmedia.com. Or post your question on the Scott Galloway subreddit, and we just might

feature it in our next episode. First question. Our first question comes from the relevant

elephants on Reddit. God, the best names in the world, they ask. Hey, Prof.G., you said mandatory service could help the nation's loneliness epidemic. I

volunteered at animal rescues in L.A., and I'm literally the only man there. I've asked on

Reddit how to get more men involved, and the top answers for it, that's a woman's job,

where I don't have time. I don't buy that, and I don't think you do either. So how do we

reach these men? How do we convince them that volunteering is masculine and actually good for their

social lives too? First off, thanks for doing that. I feel a little bit self-conscious like

lecturing about volunteering because I give a lot of money away, but I don't get much of my time away.

I like to think that I'm generous with everything but my time.

So occasionally I'll do some volunteer work or spend time with young men,

but I don't show up to food kitchens and shit like that, and I should.

I just, I don't know, lazy, selfish.

So I don't want to lecture people about it.

What I would say is that I had Dan Harris on the pod,

and he writes about anxiety and purpose, very thoughtful guy.

He has a really wonderful podcast called 10% Happier.

And a couple things that he said really stuck with me is that, one,

action absorbs anxiety.
