    Essential: Less Stress in Love, More Connection with Thais Gibson

    Want less stress in love and more connection? Start by knowing your attachment style! In this snippet from Episode 201, Kelly sits down with relationship expert and best-selling author, Thais Gibson, to unpack attachment theory and how understanding your own style and the style of the people you care about can make relationships calmer and closer.  Thais explains the four main attachment styles (secure, anxious, avoidant, dismissive avoidant and fearful avoidant) and shows how early formed patterns can linger as unconscious “relational clutter” that shapes how we ask for needs and respond to closeness. You will be encouraged to think about your own attachment style and you will learn how knowing your style can help you bring calm during moments of conflict.  Plus, Thais and Kelly discuss a real conflict situation between two opposing styles to show how, by recognizing each person’s needs, the situation can be alleviated and turned into connection. Be inspired to understand your attachment style and strengthen your connections with the people who matter most. Listen to the full discussion from Episode 201 here! Take the attachment style quiz to find your style!

    Essential: Let’s Talk FOMO & FOBO with Patrick J. McGinnis

    What if you could make your FOMO (fear of missing out) and FOBO (fear of better options) work for you instead of against you? In this Essential Series episode, Kelly revisits a conversation with international best-selling author, speaker, and venture capitalist Patrick J. McGinnis—the man who coined both terms. Together, they explore the complicated truth about FOMO and FOBO: how these feelings can drain our energy, fuel constant comparison, and even cause decision paralysis, but also how they can point us toward what truly matters. This is a snippet from episode 92, titled Overcome FOMO and FOBO, where Patrick shares insights from his book The Fear of Missing Out: Practical Decision-Making in a World of Overwhelming Choice, including practical tools to help you stress less, choose with confidence, and live more decisively. You’ll learn about the surprising upside of FOMO, the hidden costs of hustle culture and decision fatigue, and how to break free from FOBO when a good option is already right in front of you. Be inspired to rethink your relationship with FOMO and FOBO and learn how to take back control of the way you live and work. Listen to the original full discussion here!

    Anxiety 101 with Humble the Poet (Part 2 of 2)

    In this second part of last week's discussion, you will continue to learn about anxiety and be inspired to ease your feelings by paying closer attention to them. Kelly speaks with fellow Canadian minimalist, spoken word artist, musician, international best-selling author, and former elementary school teacher, the incredibly insightful Humble the Poet, to share insights from his latest book, Unanxious: 50 Simple Truths to Help Overthinkers Feel Less Stress and More Calm. As Humble shared in the first half of their discussion, anxiety isn’t something we should try to eliminate, but something we should get curious about. In this second half, Humble explains how anxiety can also show up in positive moments, and how learning to sit with our feelings can build lasting resilience. Together, they explore how removing external stimulants can lower our baseline anxiety, and how recognizing our emotional triggers — including those rooted in childhood — can reveal where the real work lies. They also walk through relatable, everyday anxiety-inducing scenarios and share practical tools — from setting boundaries with ourselves and others to intentionally doing small, uncomfortable things to build emotional strength. Be inspired to see anxiety as a natural human signal, and feel motivated to improve your relationship with it so you can transform your life for the better.

    Anxiety 101 with Humble the Poet (Part 1 of 2)

    If you are an overthinker who often feels anxious and stuck, this episode is for you! You will be encouraged to unlearn the idea that anxiety should be avoided. Instead, you’ll be motivated to approach these feelings with curiosity for more ease. To lead this conversation, Kelly is joined by fellow Canadian minimalist, spoken word artist, musician, international best-selling author, and former elementary school teacher, the incredibly insightful, Humble the Poet, to share insights from his latest book, Unanxious: 50 Simple Truths to Help Overthinkers Feel Less Stress and More Calm. Humble has been featured in the New York Times, Buzzfeed, Vogue, Rolling Stone, and HuffPost, and his book has earned high praise, including from his friend and leading podcaster Jay Shetty, who writes, “Three pages in, you’ll feel 1,000 lbs lighter.” In Unanxious, Humble shares how he once numbed his anxiety, and how getting curious about his triggers helped him let go of unhelpful coping patterns, embrace discomfort, and experience more peace. In this first part of Kelly and Humble's two-part discussion, Humble talks about the 90-day dopamine fast he undertook to reset his nervous system, the benefits of feeling emotions even when they’re uncomfortable, and how minimalism can reveal (rather than erase) anxious thoughts, creating space for deeper self-awareness and reduced anxiety. Be inspired to stop avoiding and start embracing discomfort to ease anxiety and live more in alignment with your true self.

    Essential: Embrace Uncertainty with Leo Babauta

    If the chaos of everyday life has you feeling uncertain, or if the unknowns of a purpose-driven project are triggering resistance, this conversation is for you! In this snippet from episode 185, you’ll be inspired to embrace uncertainty rather than shy away from it. Kelly is joined by international best-selling author, minimalist pioneer, podcaster, top 25 blogger (ZenHabits.net), and father of six, Leo Babauta. Together, they explore how to live more authentically through a zen lifestyle and how stepping into the unknown can lead to deeper clarity and self-trust. Leo is currently on a mission to change 100 million lives through his uncertainty training program, The Fearless Living Academy, where he helps people who struggle with embracing uncertainty or being consistent in forming positive habits. In this discussion, Leo shares practical strategies to help you move toward uncertainty and take action despite the unknown, manage inner resistance, and rewrite the limiting stories in your mind by leaning into curiosity. He also explains how purpose often lies beyond your comfort zone and how staying in the familiar can hold you back from real growth. Be inspired to tap into what Leo calls the “layer of being” and start embracing the discovery that unfolds when you enter the unknown.
