OM DENNE EPISODE
We spend a lot of time thinking about the past or worrying about the future. What gets lost in between?
For Dr. Evan Fishman, that question became more personal after he was laid off from Facebook in 2023. The experience forced him to rethink how much of his identity was tied to work, achievement, and what came next.
Today, Evan helps others navigate similar questions around identity, uncertainty, and being present.
In this episode, we cover:
- How Evan's Facebook layoff changed the way he saw his life
- What we use to avoid uncomfortable feelings
- Why fear can create stories that feel true (even when they aren't)
- How to become more comfortable with uncertainty
- Why the present moment matters during times of change

Creativity isn't limited to artists. It's something we use every time we solve a problem, adapt to change, or explore a new opportunity.
Those skills become especially valuable in retirement, when we're free to pursue new interests but also challenged to redefine how we spend our time and where…
We spend decades working toward the exit. But what happens once we actually get there?
Today I'm speaking with Jack Calhoun, who sold his wealth management firm in his fifties expecting to finally relax and write. Instead he found himself restless, then stuck running a company he didn't even li…
We tend to avoid anything we won't be instantly good at. Richard Sparks has spent forty years proving that instinct is wrong.
