I just caught this great interview driving in the car. He had so many great analogies. My favorite (to paraphrase) was how anxiety is like a fossil fuel: it’s a really powerful release of energy but it doesn’t burn cleanly. Find a fuel to motivate you that doesn’t also wreck you

The Alpinist on Netflix! So beautiful, inspiring, and moving… lots of emotions. Not an easy, feel-good movie, but it’s good to deal with complex emotions sometimes and not always looks for the easy escape @thealpinistfilm

Man’s Search for Meaning is definitely one of the best in that genre
