At the height of my career—awards, startups, celebrity collabs—my wife stopped me cold with one question: “How much is enough?”
I didn’t have an answer. From the outside, life looked perfect. But inside, I was chasing “more” without knowing why.
The culture around us says: keep climbing, keep grinding, keep stacking. But more for the sake of more eventually costs you—your health, your relationships, even your sense of self. Without defining what “enough” looks like, ambition becomes a treadmill you can’t step off.
Here’s the twist: constraints aren’t limitations, they’re freedom.
When you know what’s enough—whether that’s money, recognition, or time—you can stop running in every direction and start building the life you actually want.
The big idea? If you don’t define your “enough,” the world will do it for you—and you probably won’t like the result. Ask the question. Write it down. Revisit it often. That’s how you turn ambition into a compass instead of a trap.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
