    Episode 397: Michael Easter on The Comfort Crisis: Is Optimizing Life Making Us Weaker?

    Is our obsession with optimization actually making us weaker?  In this episode of the Habits and Hustle podcast, I am joined by Michael Easter, author of "The Comfort Crisis" and "Scarcity Brain," to explore how modern society's relentless pursuit of wellness and optimization might be backfiring.  We discuss the possibility that the more requirements we add to basic human functions (like sleeping, exercising, or working), the more fragile we become. We also dive into elaborate morning routines, sleep-tracking devices, how subtraction, not addition, might be the key to building real resilience in our overly-comfortable world, and the best way to end a day of intellectual work.  Michael Easter has made a career as a New York Times bestselling author by traveling the world to uncover practical ideas that help people live healthier, happier, and more remarkable lives. His research spans from war zones to the Arctic to the Bolivian jungle, where he's interviewed thousands of experts including Nobel laureates and world-class athletes. Easter shares these science-backed insights in his books, including Scarcity Brain and The Comfort Crisis, as well as in his newsletter, Two Percent with Michael Easter. His work has been adopted by professional sports teams, Fortune 500 companies, and elite military units to transform their approaches to physical health, mental well-being, and performance. What We Discuss: (00:00) Book Authors Discuss Success and Integrity (08:27) The Scarcity Loop in Behavior Psychology (15:34) Behavioral Psychology and Impulse Control (28:16) Unpredictability and Stimulus Seeking (42:21) Efficiency Through Resource Subtraction (50:30) Daily Habits and Mental Stamina …and more!

    Episode 391: Julia Hotz: Connection Cure, Social Prescribing, and Dating App Alternatives

    Are you tired of swiping endlessly on dating apps with no real connection? On this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I talk with Julia Hotz, author of "The Connection Cure," to explore the concept of social prescribing - a holistic approach to health and wellbeing that focuses on meaningful activities and connections rather than just medications. We discuss fascinating insights on how joining groups like birdwatching clubs or running meetups can be more effective for both your mental health and your love life than traditional dating apps. We also dive into practical tips on finding connection in unexpected places and breaking free from the cycle of online dating frustration. Julia Hotz is a solutions-focused journalist and author of “The Connection Cure”—the first book chronicling the science, stories, and spread of social prescribing. She works at the Solutions Journalism Network, where she helps other journalists rigorously report on what’s working to solve today’s biggest problems.  Before becoming a journalist, Julia worked as a teacher, bartender, pizza server, and summer camp “forest ranger”. She enjoys hiking up mountains, biking around New York, riling up dance floors, running around parks, budget traveling around the world, and building the ‘longest road’ around Catan.
