The Yes Theory Podcast

The Yes Theory Podcast is hosted by Thomas and Staffan from the YouTube channel Yes Theory. Every Sunday, we dive into the stories and lessons that follow a yes. We explore courage, curiosity and connection, along with the unspoken struggles and quiet battles that shape us. Our hope is to create a community of people who tune in not just to listen, but to reflect, journal and take on small challenges together. Through unfiltered stories and honest conversations, we want this space to bring us all a little closer to each other and to ourselves. Welcome to the Yes Theory Podcast <3

Hi friends, Thomas and Staffan here and welcome to our new podcast. Thank you so much for being here and listening. This is not only a very personal topic close to our hearts, but also one I know many of you watching have or are currently experiencing. Grief is all around us, yet we're afraid to talk about it, acknowledge that it's there and helping each other through it. May this be a place that we can come together as humans to h...

Eric, like many of us, has gone through his own internal discomforts over this past year and beyond that have overall landed him in a better place. So stick with us to hear more about the internal...

Growing older is definitely an odd feeling. One moment we’re young 21 year olds starting up a YouTube channel, and then we seemingly blink and six years have flown by. On today’s episode we bring on the one and only, Tommy Dajer. Tommy is Matt’s little brother and has grown up with us along our journey of saying yes. So join us on this episode as we discuss our experiences growing up in Yes Theory.

So stick around to learn a bit more about h...

Spirituality is a convoluted subject. With Ammar being raised as a Muslim and myself being raised mainly agnostic, we had two extremely different experiences growing up with religion. On today’s episode, we are also joined by Rotana Tarabzouni. Rotana was raised under Sharia law in Saudi Arabia and brings her own unique perspective to the table for this conversation. So join us today as we explore religion, faith and spirituality.

Things are changing in our little Yes Theory world, as well as the broader world, and we aren’t sure what the future holds. Thomas is headed back to Europe for the foreseeable future, and Matt’s stepped back from hosting. It really feels like the end of a chapter (with a new one coming close behind).  To celebrate and close the last chapter properly, and to end the season on a high note, we took a new spin in this episode. Just lik...

Have you ever seen someone staring back in the mirror that you didn’t like?  We all experience “mirror moments” -- where we see ourselves and the paths we’re headed down clearly. In these moments, we can decide to continue the course or make a change. Sometimes we are seeking big changes -- like choosing to pursue a completely new career or end a relationship. Sometimes we’re vying for simpler -- like just choosing to meditate for ...

Matt, Thomas, and Ammar have a picturesque kind of friendship. They’ve made memories on nearly every continent, built a business, and chased down their wildest dreams… together.  But what you don’t see on screen is that their friendship isn’t always easy. In fact, it rarely ever is. As is the case with many things in life, it’s leaning into the hard, uncomfortable parts that makes all of the beautiful parts possible.  For Matt, Tho...

From climbing up snow-capped mountains in our boxers to running marathons with no training, one of the core pillars of Yes Theory is seeking out the big heart-pumping, mind-bending physical experiences that force us beyond our limits. But what’s the point of doing all this? Are big challenges effective at helping us build daily exercise and wellness habits? Or is it more for show?  The science -- of extending past our physical limi...
