1. James Clear: Quote "Of all the ways you could be spending your precious time and attention, it is very unlikely that you are currently spending it in the optimal way. The only path I know for figuring out a better way to spend your life is to sit and think. You simply have to carve out some time to think carefully about what you're doing, why you're doing it, and what you're really trying to achieve. Nobody stumbles into a well-lived life. It has to be cultivated. Reflection and review are critical." Connect with James’ outstanding newsletter Atomic Habits or buy his best-selling book: https://jamesclear.com

Radon is a tasteless, odorless, invisible gas found in every home. This radioactive gas is produced by the breakdown of uranium in the earth's crust. It's the #1 cause of lung cancer for non-smokers and the #2 cause of lung cancer behind smoking. Radon seeps into your living space through holes and cracks in your home’s foundation. Unseen, unheard, and unknown without proper testing. Hear from expert and special guest Lawrence Belland about how it can be present in your home and what to do about it.
