| 6/23/26 | ![]() I Studied 100+ Creativity Experts. Here Are the 8 Ideas That Matter. | Over the last eight years of Moonshots, we've explored the work of hundreds of authors, entrepreneurs, scientists, artists, educators, and innovators. We've studied creativity from every angle imaginable. We've looked at the habits of musicians, the methods of filmmakers, the thinking of scientists, the systems of entrepreneurs, and the practices of some of the most creative people who have ever lived.As we prepare to launch a new creativity series on Moonshots, beginning with Steven Kotler's *The Art of the Impossible*, I wanted to pause and reflect on what we've learned so far.What surprised me most wasn't how different these thinkers are. It was how often they arrived at the same conclusions.A legendary music producer, a bestselling novelist, the founder of Pixar, one of history's greatest physicists, an education visionary, and a pair of Stanford design professors all seem to be pointing toward the same set of principles.Creativity is not a gift possessed by a lucky few.It is a practice.It is a way of approaching problems, ideas, opportunities, and life itself.In this episode, I share eight creative practices that have had the biggest impact on my own work as a founder, advisor, podcaster, writer, speaker, software builder, and lifelong learner.The first lesson comes from Rick Rubin and *The Creative Act*. One of the most valuable ideas I've taken from Rick is the importance of showing up early and allowing ideas time to develop. Great work rarely appears on demand. Whenever I'm preparing a keynote, building a product, creating content, or solving a difficult client problem, I start earlier than I need to. I immerse myself in the work and then let it sit. I allow ideas to ferment. Some of my best work has emerged not from pushing harder, but from creating enough space for intuition and imagination to do their job.Elizabeth Gilbert's *Big Magic* offers another powerful reminder. Momentum is more important than perfection. I see perfectionism derail founders every week. They delay launches, delay decisions, delay customer conversations, and delay progress because they want everything to be perfect. The reality is that creative people create. They publish. They ship. They learn. Progress compounds. Perfection delays.Austin Kleon's *Show Your Work* reinforces this principle. Big achievements are usually the result of many small outputs shared consistently over time. Moonshots itself is a perfect example. The show didn't grow because of one viral episode. It grew because Mark and I showed up repeatedly for years. Small contributions, delivered consistently, eventually become meaningful bodies of work.Walt Disney reminds us to dream first and judge later. Too many ideas are destroyed before they have a chance to grow. Whether it's our own self-talk or feedback from others, premature judgement can suffocate creativity. Disney's genius was creating environments where imagination could run free before practicality entered the conversation. Creativity often requires us to suspend disbelief long enough to discover what might be possible.Ed Catmull, in *Creativity, Inc.*, extends this idea even further. He argues that unfinished ideas need safety. Great ideas rarely arrive fully formed. They emerge through discussion, experimentation, and collaboration. Teams that create psychological safety unlock more creativity because people feel comfortable sharing incomplete thoughts. Innovation depends on creating environments where ideas can evolve rather than be evaluated too early.Ken Robinson's work on *The Element* introduces one of my favourite questions. Rather than asking what your passion is, ask yourself what feels good. What activities energise you? What work absorbs your attention? | — | ||||||
| 6/15/26 | ![]() Dave Asprey’s Biohacking Secrets for More Energy and Less Brain Fog | What if the food you eat could make you smarter, sharper, and more energized?In Episode 290 of the Moonshots Podcast, Mike and Mark dive into The Bulletproof Diet by biohacker and entrepreneur Dave Asprey. Together they challenge common diet myths, explore the science behind fasting, discuss the rise of Bulletproof Coffee, and examine how inflammation impacts performance, energy, and longevity.This episode is not about chasing the perfect diet. It's about discovering how nutrition can become a practical tool for better thinking, deeper focus, and sustainable wellbeing. Whether you're curious about intermittent fasting, optimizing your morning routine, or simply improving your relationship with food, this conversation offers practical insights you can start applying immediately.Buy The Bulletproof Diet:https://geni.us/FQVMdjDLearn more:https://www.moonshots.ioYouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGqs7VdIufLYNWnzZYuVaTAKey ThemesThe role of willpower in sustainable health habitsCommon myths and misconceptions about dietingBiohacking as a framework for personal optimizationThe impact of inflammation on health and performanceIntermittent fasting and metabolic flexibilityBulletproof Coffee and cognitive performancePersonalized nutrition versus one-size-fits-all dietsHealth as a vehicle for achievement and fulfillmentConcepts & BreakthroughsChallenging Diet MythsThe episode opens by examining some of the most persistent misconceptions about nutrition. Ideas such as "fat makes you fat," "skipping breakfast is unhealthy," or "healthy eating is always expensive" often survive because they are simple, not because they are accurate.Dave Asprey encourages listeners to question assumptions and focus on experimentation. The most effective dietary strategy is often the one that aligns with your unique biology, lifestyle, and goals.Biohacking Your EnergyAt the heart of Asprey's philosophy is biohacking—the practice of systematically improving physical and mental performance through observation and experimentation.Rather than accepting fatigue, brain fog, or poor energy as inevitable, biohacking asks a simple question:What small change could improve how I feel today?This mindset turns health into an ongoing process of discovery rather than a rigid set of rules.The Inflammation ConnectionOne of the most important insights discussed is the relationship between diet and inflammation.Many modern foods contribute to chronic low-grade inflammation, which can manifest as fatigue, digestive discomfort, reduced cognitive performance, and long-term health challenges.By focusing on higher-quality foods and reducing inflammatory triggers, listeners can create an environment where their bodies and minds perform more effectively.Fasting for FocusFasting is often viewed solely as a weight-loss tool, but the episode explores its broader benefits.Strategic fasting may help:Improve mental clarityIncrease focusEnhance metabolic flexibilityReduce reliance on constant food intakeMike and Mark discuss how many people discover that delaying breakfast can provide a surprising boost in productivity and concentration during the morning hours.Bulletproof CoffeeOne of Dave Asprey's most recognizable contributions is Bulletproof Coffee—a combination of coffee, healthy fats, and MCT oil designed to support sustained energy.The concept challenges traditional breakfast habits by providing fuel without triggering the energy crashes often associated with carbohydrate-heavy meals.Whether listeners adopt the practice or not, the larger lesson is to think intentionally about how morning nutrition affects cognitive performance.Health as a Means to an EndPerhaps the most powerful idea in the episode is that health is not the destination.Health is the vehicle.The purpose of eating well, sleeping better, exercising, and managing energy is not simply to achieve perfect health metrics. | — | ||||||

Brené challenges us to notice the emotional patterns we repeat—and asks whether avoiding certain feelings is quietly limiting our growth.This episode begins with a powerful intervention: if we want different results in life, we must be willing to feel what we’ve been unwilling to feel before. Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, and lived experience, Brené explains why “naming is taming”—how accurately labeling emotions reduces emotional reactivity and restores choice.Mike and Mark unpack key emotional states such as envy, comparison, and schadenfreude, reframing them through a team mindset inspired by Abby Wambach. Instead of seeing others’ success as a threat, we learn how emotional awareness helps us move from scarcity to connection.The episode closes with a practical exploration of emotional regulation vs. emotional suppression, showing how emotions can become reliable data—guiding us toward values-based decisions, intentional living, and healthier relationships.📘 Get the book: Atlas of the Heart by Brené Brown👉 https://geni.us/zk32Ho4If you’re interested in:Emotional intelligence and self-awarenessBrené Brown’s Atlas of the HeartNaming and understanding emotionsManaging envy, comparison, and triggersLiving and leading with valuesThis episode offers a clear, grounded roadmap for navigating the emotional landscape of modern life—with more courage and less confusion.🎧 Listen now and learn how emotions, when understood, become one of your greatest strengths.Become a Member of the Moonshots Podcast:https://www.patreon.com/Moonshots | — | ||||||

| 12/29/25 | ![]() Jon Kabat-Zinn — The 9 Attitudes of Mindfulness (Part Three) | In the final part of our exploration of Jon Kabat-Zinn’s Nine Attitudes of Mindfulness, Mike and Mark slow things down—intentionally. This episode is an invitation to rest, to release the constant pressure to improve, and to rediscover the power of presence without agenda.Jon opens the conversation by reframing rest itself. True rest, he suggests, is not collapse or avoidance, but a no-agenda way of being—where nothing needs to be fixed, achieved, or optimised. From this place, mindfulness naturally deepens.The episode then explores non-striving, one of the most misunderstood attitudes of mindfulness. Jon reminds us that growth doesn’t come from forcing outcomes, but from allowing life to unfold as it already is. When striving drops away, awareness has room to do its work.From there, Jon reflects on gratitude and generosity, encouraging us to meet each moment with appreciation and to be generous not just with things—but with our time, attention, and energy. These attitudes shift mindfulness from an inward practice to a way of relating to the world.As the episode unfolds, Jon beautifully weaves all nine attitudes together through the lens of heartfulness, showing how mindfulness is not a collection of techniques, but an integrated way of living with presence, compassion, and care.In the closing bonus reflection, Jon turns to mind-wandering and the rehabilitation of the present moment, a cornerstone of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). Rather than seeing distraction as failure, he reframes it as an opportunity—each noticing becomes a gentle return to now.This episode matters because it offers an antidote to burnout culture. Instead of pushing harder, it invites us to trust awareness, soften our effort, and remember that the present moment is already enough.🎧 Episode Clips FeaturedIntro — Truly Resting & No AgendaJon introduces the idea of deep rest and what it means to show up without trying to get anywhere.Non-Striving (2:04)Letting go of outcomes and discovering how growth happens naturally when we stop forcing change.Gratitude & Generosity (1:16)Enjoying the moment thoroughly and offering generosity through presence, time, and attention.Heartfulness (1:58)How the nine attitudes interconnect into a lived, embodied practice of mindfulness.Bonus: Rehabilitation of the Moment (3:42)Mind-wandering, awareness, and reclaiming the present moment through MBSR.Become a Member of the Moonshots Podcast:https://www.patreon.com/Moonshots | — | ||||||
| 12/17/25 | ![]() Jon Kabat-Zinn: 9 Attitudes of Mindfulness (Part Two) | In Show 281 – Jon Kabat-Zinn: 9 Attitudes of Mindfulness (Part Two), Mike and Mark continue their exploration of the foundational attitudes that make mindfulness a living, healing practice—not just a technique.🎧 Listen to the episode:https://www.moonshots.io📺 Watch on YouTube:https://youtu.be/CRxKWN8tF_MIn this episode, we focus on three essential mindfulness attitudes: Letting Go, Trust, and Patience.Jon Kabat-Zinn invites us to shift from forcing life to unfold a certain way toward allowing things to be. Like the breath, awareness works best when we stop controlling and start noticing. Letting go becomes an act of wisdom, reducing inner struggle and creating space for clarity and calm.The conversation then turns to Trust—not as blind faith, but as something deeply embodied. By recognising the constant reliability of our breath, heartbeat, and internal systems, we reconnect with an inner foundation of confidence and gratitude that is already present.Finally, Mike and Mark reflect on Patience as a powerful form of presence. Patience allows us to fully inhabit the moment we are in, rather than rushing toward outcomes or relief. Jon reminds us that healing unfolds in its own time—and that simply staying present can be profoundly restorative.This episode is a gentle yet practical reminder that mindfulness is not about fixing ourselves, but about trusting life, allowing experience, and patiently showing up for what is here.🌱 Ideal for listeners seeking calm, resilience, and grounded wisdom in uncertain times.Become a Member of the Moonshots Podcast:https://www.patreon.com/Moonshots | — | ||||||
