As a general rule, I like to make this podcast totally free and accessible to everyone because my goal is to spread information about how people can lead more creative, fulfilling lives and, frankly, make fewer mistakes or at least less painful mistakes than I did during my career. But this one is special because it features the Q&A section from the recent talk I gave at Gen Con 2024.

And it was carved out for a couple of reasons. You'll notice the audio didn't capture the questions from the audience well; I do my best to repeat those questions in my response, but it isn’t up to my usual standard for audio quality. I also got a little emotional answering one of the very personal questions, and I didn’t know if I wanted to share it at all. On the other hand, there are some really valuable insights here I’ve never shared before. So this seemed like a perfect exclusive to give as a thank you to all the subscribers who support the podcast. It means a lot to me.
