Episode notes

In flow, there are triggers and preconditions that lead to more flow. When the challenge that tests slightly sees our skill set, you want to stretch but not snap. In older adults, this could mean over 30%. And old is very much. This is one of the things that it's very clear in the book ... We're not going to linger here, but mindset is so much of the ballgame when it comes to performance agent.

If you're interested in human performance and personal growth, I highly recommend checking out this episode with Steven Kotler.

He has been studying human performance for over 30 years and has taught hundreds of thousands of people how to achieve peak performance evolved around Steven's latest book, Gnar Country, which addresses how to stay "rad" as you grow older. As someone who's pushing 50, I found Steven's insights on aging and how to maintain a sense of vitality fascinating, and I'm sure many listeners will find them useful as well.

Steven shares his own experiences and struggles as we dive into Gnar Country, which is filled with valuable insights and practical advice for anyone looking to maintain their edge as they grow older. This conversation was a great reminder that it's never too late to pursue your passions and stay "rad" as you age. I hope you find it as engaging and thought-provoking as I did.
