In this episode, Ryan explores the difference between truly experiencing life and getting lost in our mental interpretation of it. Inspired by Ellen DeGeneres' bit about the friend in the movie theater who won't stop asking "what's happening," he unpacks how our minds constantly predict, judge, and narrate rather than simply witnessing what's in front of us.

On the Waking Up with Ryan podcast, coach Ryan Weiss explores how the first five minutes of your day can shape everything that follows. Through short daily audio and video episodes (10–12 minutes), he delivers powerful "moments of awakening" designed to interrupt the inertia of fear, ego, and judgment, helping listeners reconnect with themselves before the noise and demands of the day take over.
Blending wisdom, meditation, and practical insight, Waking Up with Ryan offers a daily ritual that grounds, inspires, and empowers listeners to move through life with greater intention. More than just a podcast, it is an ongoing exploration of self-discovery, presence, and what it truly means to remember who we are.
