  • New Year, The Old You

    Happy New Year! As we kick off 2026, the world is screaming "New Year, New You." But before you perform a total system upgrade or commit to 50 impossible goals, host Denise has a radical suggestion: What if the inspiration you’re looking for isn’t in a "future" version of yourself, but in the archives of who you’ve already been?

  • Just 1%: The Secret to Real Progress
    Oct 22 2025

    Does your brain feel less like a powerful processor and more like a laptop running 47 separate Chrome tabs (and 12 of them are playing music)?


    You’re not alone. Host Denise Ivy is here to save you from 'hustle culture' and the endless pressure to 'crush it.' We're diving into James Clear's 1% Rule (from Atomic Habits), the only productivity hack that encourages minimal effort. We discuss why focusing on the system (the boring stuff you do every day) is the actual secret, and how being 1% better (or even 1% less bad!) guarantees massive, compounding results. If you feel like you're perpetually stuck in quicksand, this is the episode where we hand you a tiny, manageable spoon.

  • The Red Thread of Connection: Finding Your Soulmates
    Jun 25 2025

    Ever wonder if there's an invisible string connecting you to the people you're meant to meet?

    This week, Denise dives into The Red String Theory, exploring how these fated connections go way beyond romance. Inspired by Lauren Kung Jessen's novel, "The Red String Theory," Denise discusses how the universe sends us creative collaborators, platonic soulmates, and mentors, and how consistent effort strengthens these threads. Plus, get ready for your own "bucket list of chance" challenge to help destiny along!
