For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

A lesson about giving.

The things in our lives are less important than we may think. Learning to give things up for the sake of others is a path to a higher level of joy. If we can learn to be happy without the stuff in our life, we have freed ourselves from chains we didn’t even know were there.

56. Love Your Past Self (repost) 7:52

cách đây 4 ngày trước7:52

7:52

That harsh inner voice constantly pointing out flaws and mistakes, doesn’t have to define your self-image. We’ve been taught that self-criticism drives improvement, but what if it’s holding us back instead? A personal story about a childhood photo reveals how we’re often needlessly cruel to ourselves. Would you speak to a child the way you speak to yourself? Instead of a harsh judge, our inner critic can be a compassionate coach. By forgiving ourselves for past mistakes, we create space for growth without self-hatred. Next time the critic speaks, ask: Would I say this to someone I love? Treat yourself with the same care and patience, and watch how differently you move through the world.…

55. People Will Like You More If You Say No to Them 8:42

cách đây 11 ngày trước8:42

8:42

What happens when we stop standing up for ourselves? When do we become so focused on pleasing others that we fade into the background? Boundaries shape our relationships, yet many struggle to set them. From childhood, we learn through resistance, testing limits to understand the world. In adulthood, when we offer no resistance, we paradoxically become unknowable. Genuine connection isn’t built through constant accommodation but by standing firm in who we are. True relationships thrive in the middle ground, neither appeasing nor exploding, but existing confidently. You have the right to take up space. What boundaries might you need to reinforce to create more authentic connections?…

54. When You Can Name a Thing You Gain Power Over It 8:16

cách đây 18 ngày trước8:16

8:16

Naming emotions gives us power over them. When we misidentify what we're feeling, we become controlled by unseen forces instead of responding thoughtfully. Seth Roberts explores how accurately naming emotions—like realizing irritability stems from hunger, not anger—helps us break reactive patterns. Drawing from Spirited Away and horror films, he illustrates how naming what scares us diminishes its hold over us. The next time strong emotions arise, ask: "What is the true name of this feeling?" Clarity begins where confusion ends. Listen now and subscribe for new episodes every Monday.…

Pride can be an invisible barrier, quietly stealing joy from life’s simplest moments. Why do experiences that should bring happiness often create tension instead? How can a game of foosball shift from fun to frustration the moment your self-image feels threatened? In this episode, Seth Roberts explores how the mental pictures we create of ourselves being "smart," "good," or "winners" can limit our ability to enjoy life fully. By letting go of the need to protect our self-image, we open the door to experiencing joy without judgment and learning without fear. Listen now to discover how releasing pride might be the key to finally enjoying life as it is.…

What happens when a man who expected to be Superman can’t even land a role as a henchman? His soul weeps . Men often define themselves by what they contribute, so when that crumbles, they’re left with a deep sense of defeat. The defeated man takes many forms: the executive battling imposter syndrome, the divorced father losing touch with his children, the worker whose dreams never materialized. Beneath it all lies shared humiliation and a desperate search for relief. Yet, within failure lies strength. The man who falls and rises again gains resilience and wisdom that only hardship can teach. True success isn’t avoiding failure but having the courage to rebuild something greater.…

51. Tis A Gift To Be Simple 8:39

These days, we’re all told to want more — more money, more stuff, more experiences. But no matter how much we get, it never feels like enough. What if the secret to happiness isn’t having more, but actually needing less? This episode looks at how life has become way too complicated. We have endless options from streaming shows to places to travel to people we follow online, but somehow, we feel more disconnected and less happy. Think about it. Have you ever believed you’d be happy once you found the perfect partner, got a certain job, or bought the latest gadget? But after a short moment of excitement, you end up wanting something else. It’s a never-ending cycle. Long ago, people lived with less, but they might have felt more content. They found joy in simple things, like dancing just for the fun of it — not to impress anyone, just to enjoy the moment. If you’re ready to rethink what matters, tune in to Skipping Stones. Each week, we share easy reflections on how to live a more intentional, meaningful life and how to focus on what’s truly worth your time.…

What truly deserves our time and attention?

Imagine standing still while the world spins on, grappling with the deep emotional scars left by losing a loved one—whether through death, divorce, or another significant separation. Together, we will explore how these heart-wrenching experiences can feel like losing a piece of our soul and the emptiness that follows. As we confront these difficult themes, we also find solace and hope in the belief that while we may never return to the exact place we once were, we can forge new paths that are different yet equally fulfilling.

Have you ever wondered if your name shapes your destiny? Join me, Seth Roberts, on Skipping Stones, as we wander through the mystical realms of identity and intention. Inspired by the magical world of "Spirited Away," we unravel the enchanting power names have over our lives. From a witch controlling spirits by taking their names to real-life stories of transformation, we explore how changing a name can signify a profound personal metamorphosis.

Ever find yourself questioning what truly deserves your time and energy? Join me, Seth Roberts, as I share some personal anecdotes from parenting that shed light on how belief shapes our capabilities. Consider this: my son, adamant he couldn't stomach a new food, eventually overcame his resistance when a sweet treat was on the line. This simple yet telling moment illuminates a profound truth—we often need to believe in our potential before any real transformation can happen. Whether you're considering launching a business, striving to feel beautiful, or wanting to redefine success, belief is the cornerstone of meaningful change. Together, we'll explore the intriguing world of positive affirmations and their impact on self-perception. Why focus on who you are now, when envisioning who you could become is so much more empowering? The contagious nature of self-belief doesn't just boost your own potential; it influences those around you too. As we wrap up, ponder how embracing this mindset could be the key to breaking through your current limitations and achieving new heights.

What if the wrinkles and scars we often view as imperfections are actually the most beautiful parts of our story? Join me, Seth Roberts, on Skipping Stones as we reimagine the very essence of aging, not as a process to be resisted, but as a rich tapestry of life's experiences. Through the lens of the Japanese art of Kintsugi, we explore the notion of embracing the beauty found in our life's imperfections. Just like pottery repaired with gold lacquer, these visible signs of aging serve as symbols of resilience and growth, offering lessons that only time can teach. In this heartfelt episode, we journey beyond the surface to celebrate the remarkable roles our aging hands play in our lives. These hands, whether creating music, building structures, or forging connections, are extensions of our souls, carrying the stories and wisdom we've gathered over the years. While society often idolizes youthful beauty, we shine a light on the profound strength and character inherent in the marks of time. Rediscover the beauty of aging with me, and let's embrace the countless stories that shape who we are.…

Drawing parallels between the resilience of weeds and the human spirit, this episode examines how living intentionally can help us discern what truly deserves our focus amidst life's abundance.
