Höre The Chase Jarvis LIVE Show

Hey friends, Chase here. Ever get a gut feeling—but second-guess it because it doesn’t “make sense”? You’re not alone. From a young age, we’re taught to value logic over instinct. To follow the rules. To ignore the quiet signals coming from within. But science shows that your body—especially your gut—is constantly processing more than your conscious mind ever could. That inner knowing? It’s real. And it’s powerful. Why We Lose Touch With Intuition In this post, we’ll talk about why so many of us lost touch with our intuition—and how to start tuning back in, one small decision at a time. Your gut knows. It always has. The question is: are you listening?

In this episode, Debbie Millman shares how to begin—even when you feel unready, unqualified, or full of doubt. Debbie is a designer, author, educator, and host of the pioneering podcast Design Matters. She's also the chair of the Masters in Branding program at the School of Visual Arts and editorial director at Print magazine. We talk about the creative risks Debbie took later in life, why fear and shame shaped her early path, and how she found fulfillment by making deeply personal work—without waiting for permission. From the grief of losing family to the joy of marrying at 57, this is a raw, powerful conversation about love, legacy, and the courage to start—even if you feel like a mess. Some highlights we explore: * The myth of readiness – Why waiting to feel “good enough” keeps us stuck in place. * Failures that shaped the path – From rejected applications to bad jobs, how struggle created space for clarity. * Creating without permission – Why Debbie’s most meaningful work began when she stopped waiting to be chosen. Enjoy!

Hey friends, Chase here. Ever feel like your life is all work and no you? Emails. Deadlines. Chores. Repeat. Somewhere along the way, we traded play for productivity—and we’ve been tired ever since. Why We Forget to Play From a young age, we’re taught that play comes after the work is done. But here’s the catch: the work never ends. So we keep pushing joy to the sidelines. Play Isn’t a Luxury—It’s a Lifeline Play isn’t just fun. It fuels creativity, lowers stress, and helps us feel alive. It’s not the opposite of work—it’s what makes work meaningful. What If Work Could Be Play? What if you danced while doing dishes? What if you made emails a game? What if you stopped calling it “work” and started calling it “life”? It’s not about changing what you do. It’s about changing how you see it. You Were Born to Play Play is your natural state. You don’t have to earn it—you just have to remember it. So go ahead. Laugh more. Move your body. Get weird. Play might just be the most important work you’ll ever do. Until next time, keep it playful.

In this episode, Melissa Arnot Reid shares what it really takes to climb—not just the highest peaks on Earth, but the deepest valleys within ourselves. Melissa is a world-renowned mountaineer, professional mountain guide, and the first American woman to summit Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen. She has spent years guiding others to the top of the world’s tallest mountains, but in this conversation, she opens up about an even greater challenge: facing the internal struggles that no summit can fix. We dive deep into the difference between achievement and self-worth, the pressure of proving yourself, and what happens when success doesn’t bring the validation you expect. Melissa shares the raw, untold side of her journey—the failures, the doubts, the painful past she had to confront, and the losses that forced her to reevaluate everything. She also discusses her new book, Enough, a raw and powerful memoir about what it really means to be enough, when success isn’t and the truth is harder than the summit. . Some highlights we explore: * The fallacy of achievement – Why success doesn’t automatically bring happiness or contentment. * "Am I good enough?" – The two questions that drove Melissa's biggest climbs—and biggest struggles. * Lessons from the mountains – How extreme environments strip away who we pretend to be and reveal our true selves. * The real hardest climb – The internal work of self-forgiveness, facing fear, and learning to let go of external validation. Enjoy!
