    Pages Over Pixels

    EP. 35 - Pages Over Pixels We’re living in a time where our thumbs move more than our minds. In this episode of the LetDatBoyLive Podcast, Amadi reflects on something simple but powerful: reading. After realizing how often we fill silence with screens, he explores what happens when you trade scrolling for stillness and start turning pages again. From growing up in the pre-social media era of bikes, Gameboy Color, and Cartoon Network to navigating today’s endless dopamine loops of phones and notifications, this episode breaks down why reading might be one of the most underrated forms of mental fitness. Inspired by insights from The Anxious Generation, Amadi talks about attention, imagination, and how even 10 pages a day can help you reclaim your focus and reconnect with yourself.

    Presence Is a Love Language

    EP. 33 Presence Is a Love Language What if the purest love you’ve ever experienced… never said a word to you? In Episode 33 of the LetDatBoyLive Podcast, we explore the power of presence through the lens of the two quiet teachers in my life — Bubba and Rosé. From sustained eye contact that literally calms your nervous system to the unglamorous rituals of caregiving (yes, we talk about poop consistency), this episode unpacks how our pets teach us empathy, consistency, and what it truly means to be emotionally available. We get into: • Why eye contact builds trust and emotional safety• How daily pet rituals sharpen empathy• The psychology of quiet companionship• Secure attachment and why consistency feels like love• And the bigger question — are we as present with our people as we are with our pets? This one is personal.But it’s bigger than pets. It’s about attention.It’s about devotion.It’s about choosing to be fully here.

    13.1 Reasons to Believe

    EP. 31 — 13.1 Reasons to Believe I ran 13.1 miles today… and I didn’t check my pace. In this special episode of LetDatBoyLive, I break down my first Half Marathon at the Austin Marathon — not just the time, but the mindset that carried me across the line. We talk strategy over ego, nose breathing through pressure, and why controlled momentum beats emotional pacing every time. I share the music that fueled me, and how the Rally app changed everything — 13 voice notes, one for every mile, cutting through my headphones exactly when I needed them most. From the elite drip on course, to live bands every few miles, to bananas, bacon, donuts (and yes… running into someone’s fart), this race was more than mileage. It was belief in motion. It was community. It was proof that showing up to your starting line already says something about your grit. Footwork features the ASICS Metaspeed Edge Tokyo — the shoe I’m eyeing for my first full marathon. Carbon-plated intention. No wasted effort. 👟 Footwork Visual — ASICS Metaspeed Edge Tokyo:https://www.asics.com/us/en-us/metaspeed-edge-tokyo/p/ANA_1013A163-600.html?size=5&width=Standard To everyone who stepped to that starting line: whether you hit your goal or rewrote it mid-race, you built something stronger inside yourself. 13.1 reasons to believe.Let Dat Boy Live.
