In this episode, I break down a simple, no-bullshit system to climb out of the mental fog: wake up earlier, walk in the sun, clean your room, and journal with purpose.

We go deep on identity, soul alignment, and the subtle ways your life is hijacked by expectations, algorithms, and fake goals. I talk about internal tension, external validation, and how to stop living for applause and start living with intention.

We cover:

• Journaling prompts that actually work

• The truth about identity, value, and being known

• Schopenhauer’s haunting reminder about wasted time

• The 11 personal principles I live by to stay sharp and grounded

If you’ve been depressed, hollow, or just out of alignment, this is your wake-up call.
