A few years back Ali decided to quit his job as a junior doctor in the UK to become a full time YouTuber. Since then his career and life has skyrocketed โ heโs built a channel with over 5.5 million youtube subscribers and recently published a New York Times Bestselling book called โFeel Good Productivityโ
In this conversation Ali shares:
๐จ His experience with imposter syndrome whilst writing his book
๐ง Recent insights around 'leaving mental health on the table'
โ๏ธ How heโs been intentionally de-optimising his life
โ The radical question of what would life and business look like if you optimized for enjoyment?
๐ฌ What advice would he give to me as someone in the very early stages of starting a new Youtube channel
Itโs a phenomenal conversation, also thanks to our friend Marc Koenig, recorded in beautiful 4K video which you can watch on youtube if you wish.

This is my flagship 5-week bootcamp designed to equip you with evidence-backed protocols to cultivate calm and emotional regulation. Our sixth cohort will run in October 2024 ~ and applications are currently open. My sense is that if this conversation resonates with you, then you'd likely be a great fit for our upcoming cohort. This curriculum represents my attempt to distill everything I've learned in recent years about creating the conditions for our nervous system's flourishing. It's run in an intensive cohort-based way since this is, in my experience, the most efficient way to embody and practice the protocols.
Previous students have shared how partaking improved their sleep and quality of relationships and tapped into deeper states of joy, clarity, and confidence in their lives. We've had over 1000 students have completed this training, and many have said that it has been the most impactful thing they've ever done for their personal growth โ so if you're intrigued at all, you can find more details and apply to join this year's cohort over at nsmastery.com
