Marc and Amrit also cave into a great conversation about the remarkable people that have left legacy in history and whether they have journaled or not.
Finally they drop into the benefits of having a happiness list, how you can get started on journaling, us being programmed to not ask good questions of ourselves and mental fitness as a priority.

Marc was the co-founder of the journaling app KYO that reached 86.9 million people and he has studied mental fitness practices for over a decade.Ā
āWe are all ONE question away from a completely different lifeā
Marc experienced the challenging situation of having to delete his app because the business model didnāt work. A mental fitness app that combined curated content with guided self-reflection.
He asked himself questions that were dragging him deeper into the whole until he came across amazing people on his podcast that were asking very different questions. This helped him make a pause and reframe things out.Ā
He stumbled on the idea of asking himself ONE question: āWhat do I want for my life?ā That question unlocked a new path of hope and led to many more questions. He launched the Socratic Method and soon after his book.
A simple non negotiable method of asking questions at the right time. First, ask questions so you can get clear. Secondly, ask questions to help you be more intentional with your activities, habits, thoughts, or how you react. By doing these two, the third happens naturally, which is the expansion of possibility.

613. #613 Why Decades of Meditation Fail: Angelo Dilullo on Psychedelic Illusions, Zen Koans, and Absolute Truth
01:44:37||Ep. 613Angelo Dilullo breaks down how genuine spiritual awakening requires the total collapse of identity and thought identification rather than brief spiritual reprieves. Moving beyond superficial dogma, he explains how intense suffering serves not as a hindrance, but as a vital "glitch in The Matrix" pointing directly toward living truth. He details how releasing thought structures allows space, time, and separate self-consciousness to dissolve, uncovering an unfiltered, boundless consciousness.Contrasting decades of passive meditation with direct realization, Angelo addresses why many seekers remain stuck in mind identification as a trauma-based dissociation mechanism. He clarifies the critical difference between temporary psychedelic tripsāwhich merely suppress or leverage identityāand permanent sober awakening that restructures perception itself. By using Zen koans like "Mu" to exhaust the controlling mind, he illustrates how praying for absolute truth dissolves the fear of death and aligns the individual with unyielding reality.Is traditional spiritual practice keeping you comfortably trapped in mind identification, or are you willing to let your constructed identity burn away to realize absolute truth?___šŖ BOOK YOUR PERSONAL 1-1 ASTROLOGY READINGThese collective shifts affect each of us differently.Explore how this moment is appearing in your chart, what season of life you are moving through, and how to work with your current astrology consciously and practically.Debra Silverman personally recommends booking a reading with Amrit.Still at introductory pricing...š BOOK YOUR 1ā1 ASTROLOGY READING HERE:https://amritsandhu.com/reading___š JOIN THE INSPIRED EVOLUTION CIRCLE The Inspired Evolution Circle is our private community for conscious souls who want to ground spiritual wisdom into everyday life, connect deeply/Inside the Circle:⢠Weekly live gatherings and guided practices⢠Intimate Q&As with guests like Kelly⢠Sharing circles and conscious community⢠Early invitations to retreats and live experiences⢠A sacred space to connect, evolve and belongš JOIN THE CIRCLE NOW:https://inspiredevolution.com/circle___š¬ EPISODE CHAPTERS:00:00 Breakup Suffering Triggers Deep Self-Inquiry06:23 Zen Contemplation Dissolves Thought Identification12:23 Unbound Consciousness Expands Beyond Personal Identity18:47 Non-Dual Realization Collapses Space and Time27:06 Identity Resistance Creates Spiritual Destabilization34:08 Direct Self-Inquiry Outperforms Decades of Meditation44:07 Zen Koans Force Mind Exhaustion for Breakthroughs51:16 Human Consciousness Evolves Through Suffering56:31 Psychedelic Breakthroughs vs Permanent Sobriety Shift01:02:13 Self-Inquiry Uncovers Thought Addiction and Trauma01:13:01 Suffering Acts as Breadcrumbs to Absolute Truth01:18:51 Spiritual Traditions Provide Tools Not Awakening01:29:15 Death Anxiety Dissolves in Infinite Awareness01:33:20 Universal Causality Moves Through Inner Awareness01:40:05 Absolute Truth Prayers Transform Personal Reality___š FIND ANGELO ONLINEGet your copies of Angelo Dilullo's books here: š https://inspiredevolution.com/AngeloDilullo_books⦠Website: https://simplyalwaysawake.com/⦠YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAlwaysAwake⦠Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/simply_always_awake⦠Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Simply.Always.Awake/⦠TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@simply_always_awake⦠Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/simply-always-awake/id1668263566⦠Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3RZiM62g8XYE4PuEF2EleN

612. How Psilocybin Microdosing Unlocks Authentic Truth & Spiritual Sustenance with Adam Schell
01:09:11||Ep. 612Adam Schell, content creator and co-founder of Brain Supreme, reveals how microdosing psilocybin serves as a catalyst for neurogenesis, emotional healing, and psychological resilience. Moving beyond standard pharmaceutical solutions, he explains how psilocybin unwires negative neural pathwaysāsuch as guilt, shame, and fearāwhile reactivating damaged brain regions to help individuals recover from trauma and brain injuries.From his early days as a Division One football player to surviving a million-dollar publishing collapse and the complete ruin of his California cannabis farms, Adam outlines the personal adversity that led to his own regenesis. He cautions against relying on psilocybin as a quick-fix "magic bullet," while demonstrating how combining functional mushrooms, nootropics, and targeted dosing protocols offers a practical way to regain mental clarity, build positive habits, and compartmentalize severe stress.Tracing his path from personal financial failure to guiding thousands of microdosing clients, Adam contrasts conventional scientific dogma with a deeply intuitive, spiritual connection to plant intelligence. He introduces the concept of the "etheric mycelial network," illustrating how aligning with the sentience of mushrooms fosters radical authenticity, dissolves addictive behaviors, and restores a grounded sense of truthfulness in daily life.Is human potential strictly limited by past trauma, debt, and neurological decline, or can the intentional integration of microdosing unlock a profound level of cognitive flexibility, emotional freedom, and creative vitality?___šŖ BOOK YOUR PERSONAL 1-1 ASTROLOGY READINGThese collective shifts affect each of us differently.Explore how this moment is appearing in your chart, what season of life you are moving through, and how to work with your current astrology consciously and practically.Debra Silverman personally recommends booking a reading with Amrit.Still at introductory pricing...š BOOK YOUR 1ā1 ASTROLOGY READING HERE:https://amritsandhu.com/reading___š JOIN THE INSPIRED EVOLUTION CIRCLE The Inspired Evolution Circle is our private community for conscious souls who want to ground spiritual wisdom into everyday life, connect deeply/Inside the Circle:⢠Weekly live gatherings and guided practices⢠Intimate Q&As with guests like Kelly⢠Sharing circles and conscious community⢠Early invitations to retreats and live experiences⢠A sacred space to connect, evolve and belongš JOIN THE CIRCLE NOW:https://inspiredevolution.com/circle___š¬ EPISODE CHAPTERS:00:00:00 Three Unique Mechanisms of Psilocybin00:01:57 Reversing Brain Injuries and Methylene Blue00:06:19 From Football Dreams to Key West Mushroom Trip00:11:35 Literary Success, Setbacks, and Cannabis Pivot00:18:48 Financial Collapse and the Birth of Brain Supreme00:27:37 Psilocybin as the Premier Nootropic Catalyst00:32:34 Protocol for Microdosing and Dosages Explained00:39:59 Addressing SSRIs, Side Effects, and Dehydration00:45:21 Spontaneous Anti-Inflammatory Perception and Breaks00:50:25 Breaking Addictive Behaviors and Authentic Living00:53:50 Connecting to the Etheric Mycelial Network00:56:27 Athletic Performance Dosing Versus Heroic Doses01:02:37 Rejecting Stoned Ape Theory for Divine Creation01:06:30 Unlocking Late-Night Executive Function and Creativity___š FIND ADAM ONLINE⦠Website: https://brainsupreme.co/š§ Support your brain health with Brain Supreme and enjoy 15% off your order using our exclusive link: https://brainsupreme.co/discount/AMRIT15

611. #611 Stephen Jenkinson: The Mind in Eclipse, Parkinsonās, and the Wisdom of Grief
01:05:25||Ep. 611Stephen Jenkinson, culture activist, author, and teacher of grief and death literacy, reveals how facing a neurodegenerative diagnosis serves as a profound lens into the nature of mind, mortality, and human presence. Moving beyond clinical definitions of Parkinson's disease, he explains how the erosion of dopamineāwhat he terms the "give a shit elixir"āalters the connection between emotional affect and internal experience, forcing a drastic reconsideration of personal habits and identity.From reflecting on the "awful clarity" of a mind in eclipse to writing his journal entries in *Trembling Still*, Stephen explores the disfiguring psychic distress that accompanies neurological decline. He cautions against viewing life as a pursuit to keep being oneself no matter what, while demonstrating how the physical act of splitting wood and performing musical recitations becomes an active refusal to prematurely surrender to physical limitation.Tracing his journey from writing *Die Wise* to navigating his current physical reality, Stephen contrasts mainstream medical reliance on future-oriented hope with a disciplined, present-moment engagement. He examines the confounding alchemy of "grief love" and the concept of "harrowing," illustrating how breaking through hardened, inert surfaces keeps human sorrow liquid and makes room for genuine joy.Is human identity bound strictly to neurological acuity and functional survival, or does the devastation of hard times offer a rare, grace-filled discipline to engage the present moment with profound love and clarity?___šŖ BOOK YOUR PERSONAL 1-1 ASTROLOGY READINGThese collective shifts affect each of us differently.Explore how this moment is appearing in your chart, what season of life you are moving through, and how to work with your current astrology consciously and practically.Debra Silverman personally recommends booking a reading with Amrit.Still at introductory pricing...š BOOK YOUR 1ā1 ASTROLOGY READING HERE:https://amritsandhu.com/reading___š JOIN THE INSPIRED EVOLUTION CIRCLE The Inspired Evolution Circle is our private community for conscious souls who want to ground spiritual wisdom into everyday life, connect deeply/Inside the Circle:⢠Weekly live gatherings and guided practices⢠Intimate Q&As with guests like Kelly⢠Sharing circles and conscious community⢠Early invitations to retreats and live experiences⢠A sacred space to connect, evolve and belongš JOIN THE CIRCLE NOW:https://inspiredevolution.com/circle___š¬ EPISODE CHAPTERS:00:00 Contemplating Death as Fertilizer for Life07:09 Living Between Diagnosis and Destination10:20 Awful Clarity of a Brain Slowly Dying17:25 Disfiguration and Where the Self Resides25:03 Navigating Bad Days Without Seeking Victory30:03 Differentiating Mind, Self, and Brain33:24 Fidelity to Inquiry While Being Alive37:33 Keeping Faith with Heartache in Writing40:27 Refusing to Cooperate with Physical Limits44:46 Provisioning Loved Ones for What Lies Ahead49:29 Inventing Language for Unspeakable Realities54:28 Engaging Present Reality Over Future Hope56:43 Understanding Grief Love and Real Endings59:44 Breaking Hardened Surfaces Through Harrowing01:01:45 Practicing Laughter and Joy as Duty___š FIND STEPHEN ONLINE⦠Website: https://orphanwisdom.com⦠YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@orphanwisdommedia⦠Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephenjenkinsonofficial⦠Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reckoninglive⦠Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/orphanwisdom
