Advice For Living

Wisdom is a cumulation of valuable lessons we pick up along our journeys through this messy thing called life. And pearls of wisdom, then? Such nuggets are guideposts as we navigate the complexities of living in an uncertain world in an uncertain time.

On today’s show: A conversation with author Dr. Elizabeth Kagan Arleo about trusting the wisdom of the experts — both modern and ancient — so as to better overcome life’s challenges and improve overall well-being.

Here’s a preview of the wisdom we discuss today:

[1:30] First, eat your frog!

[4:00] Schedule your time in 168-hour chunks

[11:30] Set criteria, meet criteria, and be satisfied (no perfection required)

[18:00] Stop over-apologizing (seriously, stop it!)

[22:00] If you don’t ask, the answer is always no

[27:00] Imposter Syndrome: Name it to tame it

Greenwashing 2.0

Many corporations are hopping on the sustainability bandwagon these days, but it's not for altruistic reasons. It's likely due to the green premium: because eco-friendly products cost more, business owners see an opportunity for increased revenue. 

The result? Greenwashed products abound (And guess what? You're likely paying *extra* for a product that isn't at all eco-conscious!). 

On today's show Aidan Riehl offers advanced tips for avoiding greenwashing in today's ever-changing market. 

 

Here's a preview:

[6:30] Some questions to ask: Is this eco-friendly product owned by a conglomerate? Is this one product the *only* eco-conscious product in their product line?

[9:30] Getting to the bottom of "biodegradable" claims once and for all

[16:30] Should we look for pre-consumer or post-consumer recycled plastics?

[19:00] Laundry sheets and dishwasher pods! Is polyvinyl alcohol actually benign?

[22:00] So many pledges, so little action

[25:00] Steph's tips to spot greenwashing in influencer marketing
