EVERYTHING IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING, so am I. The change in season is mainly due to my personal development but this necessarily also changes the style of the podcast. The topics go deeper, the focus is more towards the person and really getting to know their perspective on things like love, death, values, fulfilment and purpose. We got a lot more into the conversation that means I also share more of my perspectives on those topics.
"Let's talk about deep sh*t!" is one of the ways you could describe the new season with.
I hope you enjoy this developed form of the podcast and get some value out of it. My goal with this podcast is to make you rethink your previous life about what makes you happy, fulfilled and give you a sense purpose. I think those topics are barely discussed even though they are essential for a happy life. 
If you don't know what you are aiming for, you are certainly going to miss.

My philosophy professor in Hong Kong, Dr. Jack Chun, gave me such a new perspective on my life. 
Have you ever thought about the purpose of life? The reason why you should continue living your life as you do? Is there a meaning in life? We did! He explains on a philosophical basis those questions and how you can find meaning in a seemingly meaningless world. 
To do that we dive deep into the philosophical explanations of Albert Camus, Thomas Nagel and other philosophers around this topic. 
So if you want to think about something else than usual daily routine, give it a listen.

The Story Behind The Ambitious Sloth
Why should you listen to my podcast if you don’t even know me? Even if you do it’s not quite clear.
So the reason why I started was not very exciting, I just liked to talk to people I find interesting. However, that quickly grew and developed into the theme of people who overcame some incredible adversity or limiting believes. Something I struggled with back in the old school days as well. I was genuinely convinced of not being smart enough to get through this.
Luckily, very slowly a change started right after I graduated. Now, about 4 years later I seem to be in a good direction of dealing with it. But if that works with this belief, I’m sure it works with much more! That’s why I seek the experience from others who have done much more than I did to get inspired by what is possible.
Since that worked for me incredibly good I’d like to share those experiences and stories with others they get a new perspective and might start a change as well.
And, let’s be honest we all have some thoughts telling us we can’t do something or telling us we are not good at something.

The former U.S. marine Dennis McCormick has an incredible story to share. Starting from his horrible accident on July 8th 2015 in which he almost died, however, recovered even stronger than before. Despite doctors telling him, he will not be able to walk again he just tried over and over again and did not let others tell him what he can or cannot do until he tried himself! Now, he is still having intense pain every day but with his unbelievable mindset he manages to have a job as a marketing director and enjoys his life like he hasn’t before. Also due to the help of Julia and Austin Piedmont. 
I feel honored that I had the chance to talk to him and hope you can get something positive out of this as well. If you think a friend could benefit from this, don’t hesitate to spread the message and if you have any question, Dennis and I are happy to answer it.
