Mo is right about the podcasts...Your interviews touch on such deep topics, having one a week would give me the ability/time to really digest the information. Just my take...but then I'm no billionaire so perhaps I'm not your target audience. I will say, as someone who has faced the very real possibility of death on more than one occasion, the time you have with your girlfriend may be unexpectedly shortened...do yourself a favor and use the time you have to make the most of what you have. My husband and I celebrate the anniversary of when we met, when we married and the anniversary of every month...And I know that one day I will look back and be glad we did.

1 year of chronic work related stress caused autoimmune disease that almost killed me. The business owner begged me to stay so I stayed until I finally ended up in the hospital. My shutting down body forced me to quit my job. It took me 3 months to build my body back and nearly went homeless. I almost lost everything. I will NEVER sacrifice my health to help someone else get rich ever again!

( I do not have a big following) and they say you must grow it with a lot of actions and posts. It is crazy. I like what I do and the content I share, but I have empathy for the viewers. Also, these companies will not put me on the threadmill and ruin my life.

I am glad COVID gave us the opportunity to work from home and rebalance our work life balance. Now I put myself first!! I want to enjoy my life with a peaceful mind and have time to go to the gym. I wish I have done these changes earlier!

I now have time to have a better relationship with her, my family, with eating right, with looking at my finances. I stopped eating the fast food I was bringing home cuz im too tired to cook. Everything changed for the better. Good changes came from a tough situation.

Prioritized my well being 4 yrs ago & cut work back to what feels tolerable (I'm self employed) & have a good work life balance now. Problem is that I'm now 30g's in debt which creates an entirely different steess. Cost of living went up so much & I've considered moving & cutting costs, have consulted 5 or 6 advisors over the past 4 yrs & there's no good solution.. there are no reasonable ways to cut costs.. so problems arise when prioritizing your well-being which in turn is bad for your well-being... it's tricky to figure out the balance which is partly why people don't try.. it's tough

If it helps. When I was trying to find out why I drank alcohol to access I was obsessed with trying to find the answer. Then someone said “if you want to know why you drink, stop drinking and you’ll find out.” So I did stop and wow did I ever find out why I drank. 😮That was 25 years ago and I’ve not drunk alcohol since the day I stopped. Maybe you should just stop and see what happens. I was told the alcohol is waiting for me if I want to start again. Same in your case.

You know.....Steve...I've been watching you for a while on this podcast. And admire ALL of the AMAZING work that you do here. ❤ Truly. And I think THIS is without a doubt! The most powerful, impactful, incredible & potentially life changing podcast, yet. At least for me; but then.....ALL of your podcasts....just INSPIRE me to do the work, to relax, to accept, to love, to be grateful......to & for myself & for those in my life. You are DOING INCREDIBLE things....on your Journey! Just know that. And I just want to THANK YOU & thank Mr. Gawdat for his beautiful, vulnerable, inspiring gifts of L❤VE to us all. Truly, truly.......you just don't know who you touch & what kind of differences you make in the world, until you are blessed with the Courage to do so & unless the Universe deems it fit to let you know. Sometimes we get to experience that privilege. You both INSPIRE me to do THAT. THANK YOU 🙏 for your service, your love, your courage & your example. ❤🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏

Wow, the way you two challenge each other's thinking, perspective, and lives is really engaging in a way that is rare and incredibly valuable! It is quite brilliant! I need to listen again! The way Mo speaks of loss and how we spend our time got me so hard as I recently lost my mom(mum). She was sick with cancer, and it has made me realize exactly what he spoke of as well as many other things. Thank you again to both of you for these in-depth life changing conversations! 🙏🏻🧡🙌✨️🔥

Steve, I’ve come to love your podcasts and have listened for over a year now. Find that ceiling, we’ll be here! This was one of my favourite episodes to date. Having begun to change my personal script several years ago, I found this interview exceedingly validating. Much gratitude for your intelligence, humour, and heart 🙏🏼

Mo always manages to blow me away, and the way Steve guided this interview is impressive. I listen to every DOAC episode each week, and I’d love to see Steve reduce the number of episodes he releases. Like Mo, I believe (and hope) that Steve is on the verge of pivoting into a new season of his life. It’s time for him to shed the old beliefs that tie his value to an endless pursuit, making room for a life that is more grounding, fulfilling, and wise. I think he’s ready to take the time to focus on what he has long said matters to him, inspiring us to do the same along the way.

I have been binging your channel podcasts. I must say that Steven you are an excellent interviewer. You pause, let the guest speak, do your research and ask amazing questions. Your voice has an pleasant tone when listening. You give each guest so much respect it is refreshing. I learn so much with each one and I am so grateful.

@SomyLomy 14 күн бұрын

Thank you Steven for that wonderful episode! It's one of my favorite. Mo has spoken about so many unspoken truths that you learn while getting older, maybe wiser 😅 and walking through life seeing the world as it is and not as it should be or as we have been taught. The world is changing and we should walk through life with an open mind, heart and eyes. Again, thank you for hosting that well balance podcast. Should you decide to reduce your work level (not a bad idea) for the sake of having less unhealthy stress, more time for your partner, friends and yourself ..... please don't stop your podcast. One episode once a week is totally fine. Quality is better than Quantity. And I really enjoy and learn a lot from you and your guests. Be your life blessed 🙋‍♀️

@mariannepfly1906 15 күн бұрын

During Covid our nursery closed for 3 months. I was doing a PhD (paid by my work) and had two little kids. Then at another point in Covid it closed for a month and I was also pregnant with my 3rd. Those forced times off skyrocketed my PhD work…how weird…I did not expect that. I did a lot of thinking and got a lot done on issues that I’d been sitting at my desk not really managing to sort in my ‘doing’ sitting at the desk each day. It’s not easy to force time off to achieve this, because the impulse is to keep going, but I do have a lot of respect for these times and never fight against them.

Steven. Would you choose 400k followers or 5 friends? MO’s example of scarcity over abundance exposes so much about one’s true identity.
