Episode notes

If there's anything that I've learned from Hollywood it's how easily people exploit other creative people right. This exploitation constantly leads to people being burned out so as far as optimization techniques or things that I've taken from Hollywood and absorbed into my world of optimize yourself I've taken next to nothing except for what not to do okay? So if you've displayed setting and respecting your own batteries because that's the key to you can set them all you want if you don't respect them no one else well this is probably going to give you an answer that you might not be expecting but I'm like that's fine for Zach but I'm afraid I'm afraid to do it because it's

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Zack Arnold, an award-winning editor, director, and founder of Optimize Yourself. He's also a father of two and a two-time American Ninja Warrior, which is pretty cool if you ask me. We had a productive conversation about how to pursue fulfilling careers without sacrificing our health, relationships, or sanity. Zack's work has been featured in various publications, and he's known for his expertise in productivity and entrepreneurship.

One thing that stood out to me was how Zack optimized his podcast process, which he shared with us. He also talked about how he's learned to prioritize his health and relationships while pursuing his career goals.

Overall, it was a fantastic conversation, and I highly recommend giving it a listen. If you're new to the podcast, this is a great episode to start with. I feel like I found a kindred spirit in Zack, and I hope you will too.
