• Why living smaller and spending less is often boring—but better
• Sleep routines and avoiding fragility in your lifestyle rituals
• Performance psychology from coaching elite tactical personnel—and how it helps everyday people
• How adults can use play to be healthier
• What she means by “my job is to make you a worse person”
• What self-abandonment is (and how to stop doing it)
• How she maintains personal productivity
• And much more
