The Dying Project

The Dying Project

Dabbling in the art of 'being' through radically candid conversations, exploring the conundrum of how simple yet infinitely complex it is to be human. Spoiler alert: It has way more to do with living than dying.

Jake Jordan is one of the best humans on the planet. It might be because we’re both very similar, Hufflepuffs and ENFJ’s babyyy! We used to work on a project together, The UnLearn Show…and I’ll just speak for myself, but it was deep and healing in so many ways.

In this episode we talk a lot about human optimization and how to find clarity. If you’re feeling stuck, it likely comes back to a lack of clarity. Get clear on you, impleme...

Laura is an incredible human, I’ve known her since kindergarten as we re-discover on this podcast.

Sometimes we see the people around us as infallible or “having their shit together” and then you discover that so much of what we go through is very similar. The exact series of events may differ, but what we feel and experience is very much the same.

In this episode, we chat about:

Amos is hands down one of my favorite humans and not just because he is my boyfriend and partner on this wild ride of life. He holds strong opinions, yet is always genuinely curious about the other perspectives. He has a unique outlook oh AND…he was brought up in a religious cult of sorts and has been spending a lot of time UNlearning.  

We chat about what it was like for him growing up, then beginning to challenge some of the...

Alex Galviz is an incredible writer because she is authentic to her core. She left her corporate job after having a quarter life crisis and has been on an evolution journey ever since. I highly recommend you check out her Linkedin channel and read some of her works. Alex has been on a wild ride, from a miscarriage to a quarantine break up—this year did not go easy on her.

I love this episode because we get to dive into the “woo” si...

Tim Salau or Mr. Future of Work is an all around amazing human, committed to community. During his college days, he repped brands like WeWork & Linkedin (his content has garnered more than 40 million views). After graduating, he jumped on board with Microsoft until he became founder and CEO of Guide.

Back in 2017, I was scrolling on Linkedin—right around the time that they launched video and I came across some of Tim’s content....

Getting REALLY real as I try something new today.  

If you're new to The Dying Project, it's based on an actual project that I did in 2018 where I lived like I was actually dying for 6 months. In addition to long form convos, I'm adding in journal entries from the actual project.

Quentin is a weirdo and I mean that in the best way possible—in that, he shows up exactly as himself. As an entrepreneur, he is constantly creating, building, and experimenting. And as a writer/podcaster he is a masterful story teller and creative.

In this episode, we discuss:

▷ Q’s journey and struggles in entrepreneurship

▷ The power of listening

▷ The importance of being still

▷ Why you need to be having more fun

I HIGHLY RECOMM...

Sofiya is a gifted storyteller and social entrepreneur. Working with major brands like Chase, the U.S. Navy, and Tupperware allowed her to fill up all of her time. After taking a step back and re-evaluating how precious time is, she decided to dedicate her time to her beautiful lifestyle brand and conscious company, This Same Sky (seriously, go check it out).

We talk about living way more than dying, resume virtues versus eulogy vi...

Be advised: there is some strong language used associated with Erik’s past experiences.

IN 2018, I flew halfway around the world to meet someone I met on the internet. Linkedin to be exact. Weirdly, some of my most favorite humans have come to me by way of Linkedin and Erik is one of them.

ANYWAY—I got to Barcelona, ate some French fries, and passed out on his couch. What I loved about this trip was that there were ZERO shallow con...

Diana Sullivan is my intuitive. When I can’t make sense of life, she helps bring clarity. What’s interesting to me is that there can be such an aversion to astrology, yet we love shit like Meyer’s Briggs and other personality tests that are based on Carl Jung’s archetypes. Those archetypes are based on…..drum roll please…ASTROLOGY! Essentially in nature there exist patterns, Jung called them synchronicities (he actually coined that...

Kira Day knows her shit when it comes to passion, way beyond the buzzword. Our conversations typically devolve into rambles about the science behind the ‘woo’. We chat about  what passion actually is, ways in which we are learning to set boundaries, and why social and emotional intelligence is the most integral part to the solution needed in the world today.

She and I are working on some cool things together and I can’t wait t...

Mackenzie Selby is the most honest and mentally/emotionally strong person that I know. I value her insights and talks more than any other person on this planet. I've known her since high school and we went down some very dark places together...not only that but we also started our healing together. We went from a life of debauchery all before ever taking a legal drink to getting sober and doing the work--and continuing to do the wo...

Welcome to The Dying Project! Happy to be back podcasting and connecting with you fine folks. I realized that I'm going to be asking my guests to get honest, so I should do the same. In this episode, I talk about navigating some pretty serious health issues that I ran into late last year that were compounded with the quest for balance with ongoing mental health issues. That plus whatever tangents I veer off for--can't wait to share...

It's been a long year and I am grateful for it. Getting back to podcasting, but switching gears! Amos and I chat about the new direction and what life has been like through the madness.

Sustainable League Ep. 21 X Catherine Sherlock Change the World, Change Yourself

This is one of my favorite conversations, recorded pre-pandemic. Before we started this podcast we took 6 deep breaths and I would encourage you to do the same before listening to this. Catherine spent 20+ years in the environmental space before making a shift into something that would allow to have deeper impact, something that she used most of her li...

This week on Sustainable League, I chat with Lee Everette. He’s a mental health and alignment coach, mental health speaker, podcast host and retreat leader. All of this stems from an interesting mental health journey early on in his life. We dive into his OCD diagnosis, what it looked like to change that narrative and explored some unconventional ways of managing depression. Although these ways are slowly becoming more mainstream, ...

Last week, I was a guest on the Ryan Harper Podcast and it was a lot of FUN.  We dove into sustainability, how to not suck as a human, and some other ridiculous topics. This is not Sustainable League, but there are a lot of legitimate insights that are useful in this realm. It's a very candid convo, you have been warned!
