We can be so fixed on a job, a person, an outcome that we fuse our identity to it – and, crucially, forget that we’re okay without it. In today’s bonus episode, we unpack detachment: why we cling so tightly to people and outcomes, what over-attachment does to our mind and mood, and how to loosen the grip in a way that feels calm, kind, and clear.
We explore:

•        Why we become attached to certain people or outcomes
•        The impact of becoming overly attached on our behaviours, thoughts and emotions
•        The Buddhist concept of ‘non-attachment’
•        How detaching from the outcome can keep us grounded
•        The value of the Stoic mindset

In your 20s you're told to be as ambitious as you can be, go after your dreams, work hard, be delusional, pursue your passion at any cost. How can we do that without our lives and health crumbling? What is the balance between ambition and appreciation? In today's episode we bring on Amina AlTai, author of The Ambition Trap to talk about: 
Why having more ambition doesn’t always make you more successful
How a scarcity mindset can ruin your 20s
How to find your ‘zone of genius’
When to say ‘no’ to something you really want to do
How to lean into the slower seasons of life
The miserable paradox of success
When do you need to ‘lock in’ & when do you need to have fun?

If you've ever struggled with balancing your big goals with your desire to enjoy life, this episode is for you.

360. How to be ambitious (without burning out) ft. Amina AlTai

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/7324299f-c6a7-4648-8ade-b399015d4ec4/transcript

There is a huge emphasis on treating romance as the main marker of a successful life – from questions from family, to seemingly perfect online couples – it’s hard to believe anything else when society celebrates this kind of ideal.

In this episode, we look at how romance is often seen as the main focus of our 20s, what it can distract us from, and how we can start to approach it differently.

We explore:

•        The social script of our 20s
•        The role of milestone anxiety and FOMO
•        How this can lead to us neglecting other areas of our lives, including our goals
•        Emotional bypassing and avoiding the deeper work
•        What a healthy approach to love looks like
•        5 tips to decentre romantic love

If you’ve ever felt like your life is on pause until your relationship status changes, this episode is for you.
