More Episodes

Today on the pod I’m joined by Rian Doris, co-founder and COO of the Flow Research Collective, which is a peak performance research and training organization headed by Steven Kotler. You may remember Steven from episode 31 of the show where we chatted about adventure athletes who are pushing the boundaries of human potential. If you haven’t checked it out, carve out some time to do so - that show is one of my most popular episodes by far and I think you’ll see why.

In this episode, we’re going to do something a little different. We’re going to focus mainly on one topic - that is, getting shit done. You know, since you haven’t heard enough about that in this new decade already. Seriously though, even with all the hype of the new year it’s still a great time to reevaluate your processes and build a plan for yourself to achieve the life you want. We’ll be walking you through what I would call the ULTIMATE evening and morning routine. It’s worth putting out a fair warning, Rian and I nerd out pretty hard core on productivity, flow, and life hacking - so if you’re anything like me you’ll be in heaven and if not, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

This episode not only dissects Rian’s strategy that led him to cofound one the world’s leading organizations in peak performance and flow science, but also is chocked full of fantastic resources - so be sure to check out the resources section below for all your geeking and linking needs.

Speaking of resources, Rian and Steven have generously offered to give a free one-on-one coaching session plus 10% off their most popular flow training program, Zero to Dangerous, for all listeners of this show.
