Part 2 of 3 🎙️“Your Brain’s Not Broken. But Your Boundaries Might Be.” | Juliane Taylor Shore If you think you're calm, logical, and in control... neuroscience says otherwise.

This isn’t theoretical. This is embodiment. 🔥 This Episode Is for You If: · You’re a CEO, leader, or parent who keeps replaying conversations, wondering, “Why did I blow up?” · You crave relational depth but keep hitting invisible walls · You’ve done the work, but still find yourself fawning, freezing, or raging 💎 Listener Challenge: What’s your pause gesture?

Part 1 of 2: 🧠 The Lie of Success, the Truth of Happy: Why Hollywood Broke Him, and Philanthropy Rebuilt Him | Peter Samuelson What if the very thing you think will make you happy is the thing that's quietly killing you? Peter Samuelson produced 27 Hollywood films, worked alongside Peter Sellers, Steve McQueen, and Steven Spielberg, and stood at the epicenter of power, fame, and money.

From co-founding the Starlight Children's Foundation with Spielberg to launching the world’s first avatar-based social network for terminally ill teens, his journey is a masterclass in purpose-driven leadership. . And along the way? Practical jokes with Peter Sellers. Motocross requests from Steve McQueen. A $2.5M surprise donation from Spielberg. And the realization that happiness has nothing to do with success, and everything to do with what you’re willing to sacrifice for others. . 🔥 What You’ll Discover in Part 1: The real story behind Starlight and how Spielberg became its first chairman What Peter learned about trauma, joy, and immune response from a dying boy How a prank from Peter Sellers nearly sent him to Swiss prison The emotional cost of producing films for fame vs. purpose Why Samuelson says the happiest moment of his life didn’t happen in Hollywood How his book Finding Happy became a roadmap for every Gen Z and Millennial drowning in false narratives 🧠 Why This Episode Matters: This isn’t just a Hollywood tell-all.
