In this episode, Sam and I are joined by Jarmal Arnold to explore the idea of Depth Over Frequency—a reflection on what we stand to gain when we slow down, go deeper, and resist the constant pull of surface-level engagement.

In a world optimized for speed, metrics, and endless scrolling, we’re often encouraged to value frequency over meaning: more posts, more hot takes, more noise. But what happens when we choose depth instead? When we prioritize fewer inputs, more substantive conversations, and ideas that take time to unfold? At the same time, the conversation also examines whether frequency is always just about quantity—or if it can hold a different kind of value when approached with intention.

Together, the three unpack how our relationship with information, attention, and output shapes not only what we consume, but how we think, create, and connect. The episode invites listeners to consider where choosing quality over quantity can lead to greater clarity, creativity, and fulfillment.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by information overload, craving more meaningful conversations, or simply curious about what it looks like to live a little less reactively, this discussion offers a calm, grounded perspective—and a reminder that sometimes, less really is more.

As always, thanks for listening and for being part of the Maxim EQ community.
