Life doesn’t always go as planned — but that doesn’t mean the game is broken. In this episode, we dive into why the odds of the game sometimes change unexpectedly and why that’s actually part of the game itself.
We explore how our brains crave control and the illusion of control that leads us to resist change — whether it’s a card dealt differently than expected or a life event that throws us off balance. Drawing on improv comedy with Wayne Brady, the timeless wisdom of Buddha’s Two Arrows, and groundbreaking neuroscience research, you’ll learn how acceptance and presence can help you stay calm, clear, and creative when life throws you a curveball.
If you’ve ever felt like life “messed up” your plans, this episode is a reminder: The new card is simply the new odds. Your power comes from how you play it.
Tune in to discover how to stop fighting what is, embrace the unexpected, and keep playing your best game—no matter what cards life deals you.
