Nicole Benedetti-Kress (@nicolebenedettikress) joins the podcast for a conversation about a popular topic: choosing to do 'hard things'. Nicole is a writer, creative and professional who intentionally chooses self-development and spiritual growth practices as a way of life. She'll be a regular on the podcast in this series that we call "A Little Uncomfortable" (this is installment no. 1), where every so often we'll candidly dive into a topic that encourages us to think bigger and challenge each other in a casual environment.
In this conversation we discuss:
- Why we intentionally seek out challenging opportunities
- Examples of ways, big and small, that we incorporate choosing growth in our lives
- Key things you can keep in mind as you take on hard things in your life

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
