This week, I speak with Ryan A Bush, a philosopher, author and co-founder of Designing The Mind.

With a design background, Ryan uses the metaphor of individuals having their own psychological software that they can design for a more fulfilling life. He emphasizes the importance of nurturing virtues and understanding our strengths to unlock our true potential while challenging the conventional notion of the importance of meaning in our lives.

We talk:

  • Why to not let go of your ego
  • How depression might be serving you
  • Why self-approval, not self-esteem, is the key
  • Living the good life
  • Why not to live your purpose
