Wisdom Worth Sharing: I'm increasingly convinced that the willingness to change your mind is the ultimate sign of intelligence. The most impressive people I know change their minds often in response to new information. It's like a software update. The goal isn't to be right. It's to find the truth. (share to x/twitter!)
Monday: The Hidden Cost of Ambivalent Relationships I read an interesting study a few years ago that fundamentally changed the way I think about relationships. Researchers found that ambivalent relationships—those that are sometimes supportive and sometimes demeaning—created higher blood pressure, higher anxiety, and higher heart rate reactivity, even when the interaction in the moment was positive. On Monday, I shared an exercise from my book designed to help you spot these dynamics and choose your people more deliberately. (read the full piece here)
Wednesday: The Real AI Risk Nobody Told You About Most conversations about AI focus on two things: how fast it's moving, and how much leverage it gives you. Both matter. But the most important conversation is the one almost no one is having: how to protect your humanity in an AI world. As AI gets better at thinking, writing, deciding, and optimizing on our behalf, the real risk isn't ignorance, but atrophy.

You are not done becoming. On Friday, I explored how recognizing continuous growth allows you to stop fearing uncertainty—and start embracing it.
This is not the end of history. This is just the beginning. (read the full piece here)
| Join me by starting one healthy habit to kick off 2026: AG1! I started taking AG1 way before it was trendy or anyone knew about it––in 2011 when I needed to up my health game while playing college baseball. I was one of their first customers and fell in love with it. I took it consistently for over 10 years before asking the CEO for a link to share with family and friends. The newly upgraded AG1 Next Gen is backed by four clinical trials and features five clinically studied probiotics, functional mushrooms, and whole food-sourced nutrients to support gut health, immune function, and sustained energy. AG1 is offering my amazing Curiosity Chronicle subscribers a FREE Welcome Kit including Vitamin D3+K2 and AG1 Travel packs when you first subscribe. |
