Bravery Is A Practice with Jill Schulman

Wednesday, April 29, 2026 • Duration 31:18

Bravery expert, Jill Schulman, author of The Bravery Effect, reframes bravery as a trainable skill rather than an innate trait. She explains how “bravery reps” build confidence and self-trust by acting despite fear, and why fear is often a social signal pointing toward growth rather than real danger. Drawing on science, psychology, and her own experience, Jill outlines a three-part framework for courage: mindset, behavior, and environment. In an era where AI democratizes knowledge, she argues that bravery and human connection are the new differentiators for success. The conversation explores how avoiding discomfort fuels anxiety, how leaning into fear builds resilience, and why cultivating a “brave tribe” of mentors accelerates growth. From workplace candor and innovation to personal confidence and leadership, this episode shows how practicing courage transforms performance, relationships, and well-being.

Jim and Christine get into what it really takes to spot transformative science before it's obvious, why machine learning matters more than the word AI, and why the translation from technology to product is so hard.

Reclaim Your Nature with Jamie Wheal

Wednesday, April 8, 2026 • Duration 36:38

Peak performance expert Jamie Wheal explores why modern wellness culture may be overcomplicating what it means to feel whole, resilient, and alive. As the founder of Flow Genome Project and co-author of Stealing Fire and Recapture the Rapture, Wheal blends psychology, neuroscience, and ancient practices to explain how humans access peak states, meaning, and connection. He challenges the billion-dollar biohacking industry, arguing that many tools we seek externally already exist within our physiology and rituals practiced for millennia. From breath rhythms embedded in prayer to the transformative power of time in nature, Wheal explains why getting outside, stepping away from screens, and confronting mortality can reconnect us to ourselves. The conversation explores flow states, psychedelics and mental health, meaning in the age of AI, and why no algorithm can tell you what your soul actually needs. In a hyperconnected world, Wheal makes a compelling case for reclaiming direct experience, embodied practice, and the courage to live fully aware of life’s
