"People don't learn through experience. We learn by reflecting on the experience," Mark Vernooij


How do you solve complexity?
Are you "socialised" or "self-authored"?
"Heat experiences", how did they shape you?
Are you a horizontal or vertical thinker?
What is "elevated sense-making"?
How can you leverage divergent perspectives?
Why is leadership a "verb"?

Can big business make the world a better place?

Do change, growth and sustainability go hand in hand? How can you grow your business and have a positive impact? What can you do to change your approach and grow engagement?

Mark is a Partner at THNK School of Creative Leadership, where they're grooming creative leaders who make a positive impact on society. The school was founded in 2010 with the purpose of developing creative leaders to "turn global challenges and crises into opportunities, the ultimate goal being to achieve a more meaningful and sustainable way of life."

Psychadelic Therapy Report:

"It's been 1.5 years since my large-dose experience. After all the highs and the afterglow vanished, I found myself grappling with questions about what I want to do, who to be, who my people are, and what my place is in society. I didn't receive any revelations or answers to these questions. Instead, I was left with a strong, piercing longing for a different kind of life—a slower life, with less chaos, hurt, and numbness, and more authenticity, more attunement to my body and heart, and more meaning.
I was clueless about where to start, what it meant, where to go, what to do, or who to talk to. It was an intensely lonely place. I tried to explain this to my husband, but it's hard to convey that this feeling, this sense of misplacement, wasn't just a fleeting thought, but rather something profound and deep-seated, in my bones, my essence, my core.
My psychedelic experience opened up a void, and over the past year, I've been trying to figure out how to fill it—with positive experiences, tranquility, movement, nature."

💫 Knowledge, versus wisdom, versus gnosis: which level are you operating from? 

💫 In a world obsessed with recognition, what happens to the art of unconditional love?

💫 Are you an 'emotional flatliner'?

💫 Enlightenment: is it the new performance goal? Can one excel at being enlightened?

💫 Falling in love with ‘the Void’. When "nothing" is the ultimate "ALLness".

💫 The art of letting go of expectations.

🤯 Is it time to disrupt mental health?

*Trigger warning: Talk of childhood abuse

Matthew Simpson achieved what many would call the “American Dream,” owning a successful business, a house, and a fancy car. However, his life felt empty and devoid of hope. He had it all, but he felt stuck. To the outside world he was the cool dude in a suit, but beneath the surface he was struggling with substance abuse and navigating a brutal existence marked by constant fear, worry, indecision, and mistrust in himself, and others. 

From one day to the next, he left everything behind & embarked on a journey of self-discovery. During this process, he found a way to heal his trauma, overcome his anxiety, he left the world of business, and embraced the role of an ambassador dedicated to addressing the U.S. war veteran suicide epidemic. His book, "Worth a Fight," chronicles this profound transformation and today he donnates the proceeds from his book to support U.S. war veterans in their ongoing struggles.

Join me on this episode where Matt openly shares his journey, a narrative healing from pain and trauma.

He accomplished what many would deem the “American Dream,” but lived a life without hope. In 2013, Matt owned a sussceccesful, a house, and a fancy car. But he felt stuck. He candidly shares his journey, a narrative that involved masking emotions with substance abuse to fit in and navigate a pretty brutal existence of constant fear, worry, indecision, and grave mistrust in himself and others.  

He left everything behind and went in search of himself. In the process he discovered a way to overcome his constant fight-or flight and decided to leave that the world of business and embrace the role of an ambassador devoted to tackling the U.S. war veteran suicide epidemic instead.  He wrote "Worth a Fight," and donates the proceeds from his book to support U.S. war veterans in their ongoing struggles.
