No. 1 Sugar Expert: 17 Seconds Of Pleasure Can Rewire Your Brain!

Are We Living Through the BIGGEST Crisis of Purpose & Meaning in History?

3 in 5 young Americans believe that their life lacks purpose. This isn’t just a statistic, it’s a silent epidemic reshaping mental health, identity and future...So, how do we fix it?

In this DOAC debate, Greg Koukl (Christian), Alex O’Connor (atheist), and Dr K (psychiatrist) explore why so many feel lost, whether God is the answer, how death anxiety drives our search for meaning, and how YOU can find direction…today.

Greg Koukl is a Christian apologist, speaker, and founder of Stand to Reason, Alex O’Connor is a philosopher, writer, and host of the Cosmic Skeptic channel, and Dr K, is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist, mental health educator, and co-founder of Healthy Gamer.

◼️The shocking truth about modern loneliness and identity loss

Matthew McConaughey: The Silent Crisis No One Is Talking About! The Harsh Truth About Living Without Faith

In this new episode Steven sits down with the poet and philosopher Diego Perez, also known as Yung Pueblo.
Diego was born in Ecuador and immigrated to the United States as a child, and grew up in a working class neighbourhood in Boston. After having a mild heart attack, Diego gave up drinking and drugs, and attended his first Vipassana meditation course in 2012. Pursuing writing, he started posting his poetry on Instagram in 2013 and has written three bestselling books, ‘Inward’, ‘Clarity & Connection’ and ‘Lighter’.
In this conversation Diego and Steven discuss topics, such as:

How having a heart attack was the catalyst for change in Diego’s life

Why you should embrace and sit with your emotions

The power of meditation and embracing change

The way to escape suffering in your life
