A simple dietary tweak to improve blood flow to the brain: Wisdom Wednesdays

Most of us build confidence on outcomes, which means it rises when things go well and drops when they don’t. In this episode, Carly explores a Stoic practice known as the reserve clause, the idea of committing fully to your actions while accepting that the result is not entirely in your control.

Drawing on Stoic philosophy, she explains how shifting your focus from outcomes to effort, intention, and how you show up creates a more stable form of confidence. You’ll also hear how practising arete, or excellence of character, allows you to respond well in both success and failure.

A simple mindset shift before and after challenges can help you build confidence you can actually rely on, regardless of what happens.

In this episode, I chat with Thoryn Stephens, a data visionary and keynote speaker, about the intersection of human behaviour, biology, and artificial intelligence. Thoryn shares his journey from studying biotechnology and molecular biology to optimising human performance through data science. The discussion delves into the importance of wearable technology in measuring and enhancing personal health metrics, such as heart rate variability and sleep quality. Thoryn emphasises the significance of recovery and Behavioral design in achieving peak performance, whether in athletics or corporate settings. The conversation also explores the potential of AI in advancing healthspan and mindspan, highlighting both the promising and challenging aspects of integrating technology with human biology.

Takeaways
