    The Mattering Effect: Finding Your Way Back to Meaning and Connection | John Miles
    Oct 13 2026
    In this episode, John Miles explores the mattering effect and how to find your way back to meaning and connection when you feel invisible in your own life. Drawing on his experience of achieving career success while feeling increasingly disconnected, John explains how we can slowly lose our sense of worth when life becomes a constant effort to prove our value. He also discusses how to recognize that gradual withdrawal, reconnect with the meaning in everyday actions, and make more room for relationships that help us feel seen. This conversation offers a starting point for anyone who’s getting things done but struggling to feel fully present in the life they’re living.

  • How the Words You Choose Shape the Life You Live | Mark Nepo

    How the Words You Choose Shape the Life You Live | Mark Nepo
    Sep 29 2026
    In this episode, Mark Nepo talks about how the words we use shape the way we experience our lives. Drawing on Mark’s new book The Language of the Soul, he explores how words can help us make room for pain and fear or make those experiences feel even bigger. Mark also discusses what it means to be wholehearted, why ordinary moments don’t have to feel extraordinary to matter, and how to return to a fuller sense of life when we’ve lost touch with it. A Weekly Bite of Wisdom: Want to go deeper with the ideas we explore on The One You Feed? Every Wednesday, you’ll receive a short, practical email that turns insights about mental health, relationships, purpose, habits, and personal growth into simple practices you can use right away. You’ll also receive our Weekend Podcast Playlist that includes a recap of the week’s episodes with our featured guests. It’s free, takes about a minute to read, and is enjoyed by thousands of readers each week. Sign up at oneyoufeed.net/newsletter. Key Takeaways: The words we choose can help us meet a difficult experience or intensify it. Being wholehearted means making room for the full range of feelings, including the ones we’d rather avoid. You don’t have to feel wonder in every ordinary moment for that moment to be worthwhile. When fear or pain narrows your view, relationships and practices can help you find a wider perspective. Acceptance can help you discern when to act and when to be patient. Returning to presence is a practice; losing touch with it doesn’t mean you’ve failed.

  • How to Start a New Chapter When You Think It’s Too Late | Sari Botton

    How to Start a New Chapter When You Think It’s Too Late | Sari Botton
    Sep 25 2026
    In this episode, Sari Botton discusses how to start a new chapter when you think it’s too late and explains what happens when the life you expected stops making sense. At 54, writer and editor Sari Botton struggled to get interviews for jobs she was qualified for and feared her career was over. Now, at 60, she’s doing some of her most fulfilling work. In this episode, Sari and Eric talk about the realities of getting older, how to tell what deserves acceptance and what’s worth pushing back against, and why an unexpected crossroads can still lead somewhere good. ⁠Free Guide: Outsmart the Hidden Saboteurs of Self-Control.⁠ What’s been holding you back lately? In this free guide, Eric shares the six common saboteurs that quietly derail our best intentions—like autopilot behavior, self-doubt, and emotional escapism—and offers practical strategies to help you regain control and move forward. Download your free copy at ⁠oneyoufeed.net/ebook.⁠ Key Takeaways: Getting older can bring loss and new possibilities at the same time. You can accept changes in your body without accepting someone else’s limits on your life. A career setback may close one path while giving you room to create another. Rejection is part of pursuing creative work, but it can also be a reason to refine your approach. Taking one step can reveal options you couldn’t see from where you stood. You don’t have to have yourself completely figured out to begin again.

  • Why We Fight the Changes We Know We Need | Jonah Berger

    Why We Fight the Changes We Know We Need | Jonah Berger
    Sep 18 2026
    In this episode, Jonah Berger explains why we fight the changes we know we need. Jonah explains why pushing harder, piling on more reasons, or simply telling ourselves what we “should” do can actually create more resistance. Instead, he shares how identifying and removing the barriers to change can make transformation easier and more sustainable. They explore why small steps are often more effective than dramatic ones, how to work with our natural resistance, the hidden cost of staying with what’s “good enough,” and how the people around us quietly shape our choices. ⁠Good Wolf Reminders⁠ A little wisdom, right when you need it.
