Ryan Geist - Ego Death
starTEDover's podcast
Welcome to episode number 18 of starTEDover, the final episode of season one. My idea from the beginning was to produce 18 18-minute interviews that would inspire listeners and even save lives. Though my guest today was one of my first interviews, I wanted to save publication for the season’s finale because, frankly, my guest Ryan Geist could have used a story like his when he was experiencing his darkest days of addiction and psychosis.

These interviews are edited down to 18 minutes, because 18, in Hebrew numerology, is the number for life or chai, and my hope is that these stories of starting over could enliven you today or even save a life.
