In this vulnerable episode the host shares a personal struggle he calls a "fat day"—a moment of body shame and insecurity amplified by challenging blood work and diagnoses of depression, anxiety, and ADHD. He explains how medication choices are complicated by high blood pressure and how perfectionism and shame derail progress.

Rather than seeking perfect solutions, he models the "clear enough" approach: small, concrete steps like deleting restaurant apps, setting alarms, and celebrating tiny wins. The episode emphasizes compassion over shame, progress over perfection, and using values—integrity, growth, thoughtfulness—to guide sustainable change.

This episode explains why traditional New Year’s resolutions usually fail—because they’re vague, absolute, and overwhelming—and why that leads to shame and quitting.

Instead, the host recommends intentional living: identity-based choices, short 13-week planning cycles, weekly actions, and small consistent steps that build lasting change.

Host Drew explores "Inside Out for grownups," showing how adult emotions are noisy information, not enemies, and how to work with them in daily life.

He explains the expanding cast of emotions, the idea of different control panels (work vs. home), and practical tools like "putting emotions on trial," naming feelings, and discerning anger and anxiety.

Short, actionable strategies - music, breathing, small rituals, and asking for comfort or space - help you choose your next step.
