“I get very, very angry when people misinterpret the word ‘complicit’ for ‘responsible.’ And it’s not because I want to let people off the hook but quite the opposite. I want people to understand that they’ve been an accomplice. When we get into our mindset that says, ‘I am responsible for all the shit in my life,’ we’re actually walking away from doing the hard work.”
— Jerry Colonna






Here is my brand-new conversation with Jerry Colonna, CEO and co-founder of Reboot.io, an executive coaching and leadership development firm dedicated to the notion that better humans make better leaders. He is the author of Reboot: Leadership and the Art of Growing Up and Reunion: Leadership and the Longing to Belong.

This episode is brought to you by The League. I’ve tried all the dating apps, and while there are some slick options out there, the most functional that I’ve found is The League. I’ve been using it for a few months now, and I’ve found some great matches. Unlike most dating apps, which give you almost no information, The League starts you with a baseline of smart people, and you can then easily find the ones you’re attracted to. More than half of League users went to top-40 colleges, and you can make your filters really selective. You can search by interest across multiple locations, and people verify using LinkedIn, so you can make sure they have a job and don’t bounce around every 6 months. It’s a simple proxy for finding people who have their act together, and it’s infinitely easier than trying to figure things out on Instagram or otherwise.





Download The League today on iOS or Android and find people who challenge you to swing for the fences and are in it to win it. Message #Tim to your in-app concierge to jump to the front of the waitlist and have your profile reviewed first.










This episode is brought to you by Eight Sleep! Temperature is one of the main causes of poor sleep, and heat is my personal nemesis. I’ve suffered for decades, tossing and turning, throwing blankets off, pulling them back on, and repeating ad nauseam. But a few years ago, I started using the Pod Cover, and it has transformed my sleep. Eight Sleep has launched their newest generation of the Pod: Pod 4 Ultra. I’m excited to test it out. It cools, it heats, and now it elevates, automatically. With the best temperature performance to date, Pod 4 Ultra ensures you and your partner stay cool, even in a heatwave. Plus, it automatically tracks your sleep time, snoring, sleep stages, and HRV, all with high precision. For example, their heart rate tracking is at an incredible 99% accuracy.





Pod 4 Ultra also introduces an adjustable Base that fits between your mattress and your bed frame to add custom positions for the best sleeping experience. Plus, it automatically reduces your snoring when detected. Just add it easily onto any bed.
