Sometimes, life throws us into situations that feel uncomfortable, unpredictable, or even a little messy. But those are also the moments where we can learn the most about resilience and adaptability.
In this episode, I share a story from my Peace Corps service in The Gambia that started with an unexpected late-night run-in with cockroaches. And how, years later, I’ve come to see these resilient creatures as an unlikely source of inspiration. From survival instincts to adaptability, I reflect on what we can take from the cockroach’s example to navigate challenges and keep evolving. If you’ve ever felt the need to adapt in order to keep moving forward, this one’s for you.

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.
