Ep. 61: David Allen of Getting Things Done on Productivity, Spiritual Exploration, & What it all Means Mar 22, 2016

Show notes

Today, I'm joined by one of the top names in the world of productivity and time management. As we've talked about in a lot of episodes before, a lot of the secret science behind truly becoming superhuman lies in organizing your time, prioritizing, and getting things done.

That's why I'm so excited about today's guest - because he literally wrote the New York Times bestselling book on Getting Things Done. If you've ever heard the term "GTD" or does even some cursory research into the world of productivity, you know all about him and his method - which has really taken the world by storm since it was first published in 2001.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the "GTD" system, and begin to understand how you can learn to use it in your own life. But we talk about so much more... including psychedelic drugs, mindfulness, meaning and purpose, accomplishment.

In this episode, we're going to learn how he dropped over 50% of his body weight, creating health and happiness in his own life, and inspiring tens of thousands of others to do the same.

I really enjoyed getting into some of the nitty-gritty details and science behind ketogenesis with Jimmy, and we throw out a lot of scientific terms you may or may not be familiar with. All in all, however, the conversation is really easy to follow, and whether you know about "keto" dieting or not, you're going to learn a ton.

Show notes

Today's guest is another interesting fellow that I met at the Summit at Sea conference at the end of last year. I met Joel Einhorn because there was a ton of buzz all throughout the ship about his product called Hannah One. After hearing enough celebrities and pro athletes talking about how awesome it was, I connected with today's guest and we started chatting and sharing common interests.

In this episode, we're going to talk about his journey of discovering ayurvedic medicine, healing, and developing his superfood product along with experts in India… and much, much more.

Ep. 57: Beating Jet Lag, Seasonal Affective Disorder, & Balancing Multiple Careers w/ Timo Ahopelto Feb 23, 2016

Show notes

Today's episode is about Transcranial bright light therapy, and basically, it's where you… well, there's no delicate way to say this… you shine super bright white light onto your brain in order to alter circadian rhythm, jet lag, or mood.

Our guest is Timo Ahopelto, beyond just Valkee, I found out that my guest is not only a serial entrepreneur himself, but also sits on the boards of tons of incredible companies doing innovative things, from AI-powered robots to medical technology to waste management and big data logistics. He is even the founding partner of his own VC firm… As you can tell, he's absolutely SuperHuman, and in the episode, we try to touch on that, too.

Ep. 56: Real-Life Mind Reader Daniel Harel Shares How We Are All Similar (and How You Can Learn to Predict People's Behavior, Too!) Feb 16, 2016

Show notes

Today's show is a little bit different. That's because our guest today will be the first to tell you that he's not in fact SuperHuman… but you won't believe him. His name is Daniel Harel. Daniel's gift? He's a mentalist, or mind-reader. The feats that I've seen Daniel perform are so astounding, that I actually had to record some of them so you can view them on our website.

In this fun and absolutely jaw dropping interview, we get to see a real life demo of Daniel actually reading my mind… It's going to blow yours! We also go into some insights that Daniel has acquired about life, emotional health and wellbeing, and so much more after reading the minds of about 10,000 people.

Ep. 55: Discovering the Magical Power of Medicinal Mushrooms w/ Four Sigmatic's Tero Isokauppila Feb 09, 2016

Show notes

Today's show, we're going to talk about magic mushrooms. Not those kind of magic mushrooms. But still, pretty magical. That's because today, we're joined by a 13th generation mushroom farmer turned entrepreneur and biohacker from Finland.

Through his company, Four Sigmatic Foods - today's guest is working hard to bring the ancient wisdom of mushrooms and their nutritional and medicinal benefits back into the modern era. There are a ton of health benefits which we're going to learn about in the coming hour, but beyond just that, for every product you buy, they donate a portion of medicinal mushrooms to a cancer patient in need. Pretty cool, if you ask me.

Ep. 54: Gabriel Wyner on Learning Languages & Becoming Fluent Faster Feb 02, 2016

Show notes

Today, we have a special treat for you, especially if you enjoyed our episode with language learning expert Benny Lewis. Today's guest is Gabriel Wyner, the guru I turn to when I have difficult language learning questions. His book, Fluent Forever, completely changed the way I approach learning a language, and his extremely detailed, in-depth blog on the subject was an invaluable resource to me when I was learning to use some of the tools that have become so central in my learning toolkit. He also has tons of incredible products, from pronunciation guides, to comprehensive word lists ranked in order of importance, and much, much more.

In this episode, we geek out pretty hard on the nitty gritty techniques to hack language learning. From how to learn vocabulary, to what words to learn, to hacking grammar, and much much more.
