Two Percent with Michael Easter

Keep up the good work, since you are landing in multiple channels: books, substack, and now podcasts. I feel the value of your work will increase exponentially. The interesting take for me, to engage in 2% behaviors requires work and I think the negative reviews are people who want a fix me pill

Love the variety of people Michael interviews. Every episode I learn something new and am exposed to information I wouldn’t normally think about. Michael is good at collecting a lot of research and condensing it down and then talking to some of the best experts. Love the 2% podcast and website and Michael’s books. Highly recommend giving it a listen for great life coaching advice.

I first discovered Michael’s work years ago through The Comfort Crisis, and it made a lasting impact. After getting so much value from that book, I became a subscriber to his Substack. When he launched the podcast, I’ll admit I was skeptical as it felt like it might just be a way to repackage existing content for more views. After listening to multiple episodes, that skepticism disappeared. The podcast isn’t a repeat of his earlier work; it’s a fresh platform where he explores new ideas, brings on fascinating guests, and stays current with emerging research that actually matters to me. He’s expanded the concept of “discomfort” far beyond physical challenges, pushing into mental, social, and professional growth in ways that genuinely stretch what’s possible for the show. I look forward to every new episode because I know it’s going to challenge how I think, why I act the way I do, and how I show up tomorrow, usually for the better.

Thank you for so many insights!
