The more you stare at a problem, the harder it becomes to see the solution. In this episode of Waking Up with Ryan, Ryan explores a radical shift in perspective: what if the solution to your problem already exists the moment the problem appears — and it's only the illusion of time (and fear) that keeps you from seeing it?

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.

They met backstage at an NSYNC concert twenty-five years ago and stayed up until 5am laughing. They’ve been showing up for each other ever since.

In this live conversation from the Waking Up with Ryan launch in Venice, actresses Jenna Dewan and Emmanuelle Chriqui get honest about what it actually takes to keep a friendship alive for a quarter century, especially two women in the same industry, often up for the same roles.

They talk about the “ugly stuff” nobody admits to: the early envy and competitiveness, and how they learned to turn it into admiration. They talk about protecting their bond when outside forces tried to drive a wedge between them. And they go somewhere deeper, into what it means to show up for someone in real pain: not rushing to fix it, but knowing where the hurt lives in the other person and loving them there.

Jenna opens up about the guilt of juggling a career, a partner, and three kids. Emmanuelle shares what it meant to have Jenna show up with real presence through some of the hardest personal and family moments of her life. This one is about friendship. The kind that carries you.

New episodes of Waking Up with Ryan every weekday morning, with longer conversations like this one every other week.

The Purpose of Your Life

Being human is inherently strange—we're infinite, boundless awareness crammed into a small body, juggling emails, money, and relationships while forgetting who we really are. In this episode of Waking Up with Ryan, Ryan explores why life feels so hard, drawing on a Talmudic teaching about the soul forgetting itself at birth, and compares our everyday experience to a nightmare that feels completely real until we wake up.
