Being deep is the only way to be

Homemade Meatballs

After a Sunday of family time and meal prepping, Jay reflects on moving from being outcome-obsessed to focusing on the daily process. He’s trying to build a mobile app with no coding background, by committing to 30 minutes a day learning AI and working toward an MVP, despite life being busy with a newborn and work. He talks about pushing past self-limiting beliefs, balancing therapy with discipline, and staying off social media and rage-bait content. He also encourages people to do hard things, mentions a big annual challenge idea, and plans to add more structure to future episodes.

I'm not afraid of Sunday's

Jay comes at you with a solo episode this week. He talks about social media, the reasons he wants to provide opportunity, board games and snowshoeing. Enjoy:)
