Whether it’s financial, physical, mental, or social—getting good at taking risks is a skill that can be trained, sharpened, and mastered.

This week Shawn welcomes Jason Bronstad, CEO of MALK Organics, to dig into the Shawnism: "Practice Taking Risks." From slowing down the motion so you can speed up later, to pushing past ego and embracing vulnerability, they unpack how calculated risks open unexpected doors.

Shawn and Jason also talk about the power of hobbies that build courage, the freedom of asking for help, and how imagining worst-case scenarios can keep us stuck when we let fear take the wheel.

So, start (or continue) to take smarter risks because you never know what’s possible until you give it a shot.

What if the pressure you’re putting on yourself… doesn’t actually exist?

This week Shawn sits down with professor, author, and leadership expert, Alexander Puutio, to break down the Shawnism: “Nothing Really Matters.” The two explore the freeing truth that most people aren’t paying as much attention to you as you think—and why that realization can be one of the most liberating tools for personal growth.

Shawn and Alex also discuss how simplicity often hides within complexity, why asking “Who cares?” can be a surprisingly empowering mantra, and what it really means when Alex says that most of us are wealthier than John D. Rockefeller ever was.

From letting go of perfection, to rethinking the life track you’re on, to performing better by caring less about the outcome—this episode is a perspective shift you didn’t know you needed.

Because once you realize nothing really matters… everything starts to.

What if the only difference between success and failure… was just not quitting?

Shawn sits down with Heather Monahan—bestselling author, keynote speaker, and founder of Boss In Heels—to unpack the Shawnism: “Just. Keep. Going.,” and what it really means to stay committed when everything around you screams “quit.”

Shawn and Heather share their thoughts on how to reshape your mindset—starting with your social media feed—and why firing your villains (yes, you can) is sometimes the biggest act of self-care. The two also talk about confidence, using fear as fuel, the weight of regret, and the empowering truth that people treat you the way you teach them to.

Plus, Shawn shares a never-before-told story about the earliest (and messiest) days of LoveSac—and how sticking with it made all the difference.

Whether you’re stuck, stalling, or sprinting—this is the sign to just keep going.
