An Excellent Wknd
We're talking stress, friendships, & regrets this week.
Hello, hi, 👋
A hearty welcome to the 23 new humans who joined us in the last week. I’m sending each of you a freshly picked Maine apple as a thank you.
Here’s what came out this week, plus a new Chaturday. (Make sure you download the app & jump into the convo. Links are below.)
Let’s get into it.

[ 💭 ] Reducing Parental Stress
Discussing the impact of stress on parenting and how societal expectations, technology usage, and self-comparison can exacerbate stress levels in parents.
[ 🗣️ ] HopperTalk: Self-Worth & the Skill of Friendship
Reintroducing an older format, but with a twist. We’ve got wisdom from writers Elizabeth Gilbert and Simon Sinek that we hear, discuss, and learn from.
[ 🤟🏼 ] How Can I Manage Grief During Workouts?
We're answering a listener's question about managing grief during workouts after the recent loss of their father.
[ 📚 ] Book Club #3
Just a reminder that we recently announced the next few books we’ll read together in the Chase Club Book Club. First up will be Arthur Brook & Oprah’s Build the Life You Want.
We’re keeping these conversations exclusive to the Chase Club, so now’s a great time to jump in if you’ve been thinking about it.
💬 CHATURDAY
Last week, we talked about the 5 regrets of the dying, as reported by writer & palliative caregiver Bronnie Ware. Those regrets were:
Not Living True to Oneself
Working Too Hard
Not Expressing Feelings
Not Staying in Touch with Friends
Not Choosing Happiness
For those who have listened, I’d love to know what thoughts these regrets & the episode triggered for you.
Jump into this week’s Chaturday & let us know!
