Episode notes

I recently had this revelation of like I've been trying so hard to the point where it's been honestly kind of hurting me to be super productive over optimize everything. The thing that keeps showing up time and time again is not trying so hard, he says. Enjoying each day because that's all we really get is the little moments we have throughout our day. Sam Harris has a line if you if anyone's interested in getting into meditation it really I highly recommend Sam Harris's app called waking up. It's free for the first 10 days or something like that.

This episode is a crossover from Josh's recent appearance on The PlayHard Podcast with Armand Uno.

Armand is an early-stage startup founder and the host of the PlayHard Podcast, where he interviews entrepreneurs weekly about their healthy habits and hobbies to combat stress and burnout and maintain balance.

In this episode, we dive into quite a lot, including:

The art of podcasting and being a good interviewer.
The long-term impact of Adderal and caffeine use.
Battling an autoimmune condition as an entrepreneur.
The science-practice gap.
Supplements and nootropics for ADHD.
The lack of transparency in the supplement industry.
A deep dive into the traditional Chinese gongfu style of making tea.
How tea can be a mindfulness practice.
Some of my favorite recent movies, music, books, and more.
