Intentionally Obscure Communication Is Trash

What is Effective Philosophy? Juan and I simplify hard to grasp concepts into pragmatic takeaways that can be applied to every day life (fitness, goal setting, work, parenting, travel, hobbies, finances, etc.,). 2 x episodes a week. We go live every Wednesday with our meanderings, plus an extra as a more casual conversation with a guest or between ourselves.

What is your tolerance level for communication that is not presented in the most accessible way possible?

In Episode #202 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: Juan's recent humbling experience of seeing people who are the best in the world at what they do, what I want to change after my silent retreat, not wanting to speak in platitudes but sometimes needing to, peak experiences that you can get from exercise/meditation/drugs, why we hate books that are hard to decipher and some of the nice reviews that listeners have been leaving us.

As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!
