He is funny and smart and other-oriented and helpful and teaches using these very pithy phrases, just little like one-liners that are kind of like Buddhist earworms.

They just, you know, wriggle their way into your mindstream and then

surface when you need them the most.

So I'll give you an example.

The next time you're in a spiral of anxiety, maybe if you can catch yourself in one of these overthinking periods, ask yourself this question.

And again, this comes from Joseph.

is this useful?

Like, some amount of worrying makes sense, but we often and very quickly cross the line between constructive anguish and useless rumination.

And that little question of, is this useful?

Or should I, you know, think about something else?

Maybe even help somebody else.

That's an incredibly helpful little earworm.

And so,

At the beginning of this year, 2026, I dropped two episodes with Joseph where we went through a bunch of these phrases.

And you just get to hear this truly brilliant human being who I don't love this word inspiring, but it is inspiring in the true sense of that word because it gives you a sense of, oh, yeah, like this is what's on offer.

Right.

If I follow this path.

Thank you for that.

I'm going to go check it out.

Everyone else should too.
