How I Got The Healthiest I've Ever Been At 33 Years Old

Last year, becoming a dad only intensified my commitment to defy the norms and set a new standard for health and fitness.

Navigating Burnout in a Post-Pandemic World

Regardless of age, gender, status, or career path, burnout affects us all, and it has become increasingly challenging in our post-pandemic world. It's characterized not just by exhaustion, but by a profound loss of purpose and resilience. Shirley Leung, an award-winning business columnist and prominent voice at the Boston Globe. With accolades like four-time Gerald Loeb Award finalist and inclusion on Boston Magazine’s “100 Most Influential People in Boston,” Shirley brings a wealth of experience and perspective to burnout, balancing her career with raising two sons. In this episode, we discuss why focusing on less and prioritizing quality is the key to more meaningful work, how we developed the habit of multitasking and why we need to redefine productivity, how technology might enable people to focus on more meaningful work, and choosing intentionality in how we allocate our time, rather than solely focusing on maximizing pay.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comEpisode ResourcesWe're in a burnout epidemic.

Ever wondered what it takes to think like an Olympic gold medalist? Heather Moyse knows – a 4-time Olympian and 2-time Olympic Gold Medalist in bobsleigh. She’s also the second Canadian ever, and the first Canadian woman, to be inducted into the World Rugby Hall of Fame. Described as Canada’s best-ever all-around female athlete.

Why Everything You’ve Been Told About Cannabis Is A Lie

Did you grow up believing everything you were taught about cannabis? I certainly did, especially in my small hometown, where misinformation about cannabis was rampant. Our understanding of cannabis was shaped by programs like D.A.R.E., which painted a very distorted picture. For years, many of us have been fed misinformation about cannabis, leading to widespread myths and misconceptions that persist even today. These falsehoods have deep roots, dating back to early 20th-century anti-cannabis campaigns and the infamous "War on Drugs." In this episode, I discuss why everything you’ve been told about cannabis is a lie and I dismantle seven major misnomers about cannabis, revealing the truth behind the lies and explaining why these myths are not supported by science or data.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comEpisode ResourcesExplore how HashDash combines technology and cannabis to support your health journey.
