Everyone is figuring it out. So what are you waiting for?
In an assembly hall in high school I shrank inside myself when I watched my academically inclined friends succeed as I kept my average grades and test scores to myself. As I got older I saw new patterns in my life and those around me emerge.
Things like taking action, accepting risk, and having faith in uncertainty. Things that do not show up on a report card or standardized test.
The reality is everyone is figuring it out as our external environments change daily...
Let's unpack this.

#8 - 4 Signs You're Finally Coming Out of a Difficult Season
When grief, illness, and uncertainty take over your life, it's easy to lose sight of who you are and what your future could look like.
But what if things are beginning to change, even if you can't quite see it yet?
In this episode of Human in Progress, I explore four signs that you may be moving out of survival mode and beginning to find your way forward. From feeling like yourself again to allowing yourself to hope for what's next, we'll explore what it looks like to slowly put the pieces back together after life has knocked you down.
Because even when you can't see the light yet, your current circumstances don't have to define what comes next.

#7 - How Grief and Illness Nearly Broke Me
What happens when life becomes harder than you ever expected, and you start to feel like a stranger to yourself?
In this episode, I share some of the hardest seasons my wife and I have faced, from losing my three-year-old nephew unexpectedly to mold poisoning, ongoing health struggles, and putting our plans to start a family on hold.
I spent years believing that when life gets hard, you push harder. But what happens when pushing through isn't enough? When grief compounds, your health suffers, and you begin questioning who you are?
This is a conversation about cumulative grief, the weight of trying to hold everything together, and what happens when life changes you in ways you never expected.
If you've ever felt unlike yourself in the middle of a difficult season, this episode is for you.

#6 - What If the Voice in Your Head Is Wrong?
Sometimes the way we talk to ourselves starts when we're kids and follows us into adulthood.
We replay the mistakes, overlook the wins, and convince ourselves we should be further along than we are.
But growth doesn't have to come at the expense of appreciating who you are today. Learn to recognize your inner critic, challenge the story it tells, and make room for a different perspective.
You can want more and still be proud of how far you've come.

#5 - If You Know, Why Aren't You Doing It?
We live in a world where we can learn almost anything. We read the books, listen to the podcasts, attend the conferences, and collect insights about the people we want to become. But if we already know so much, why aren't we doing more of what we know?
In this episode of Human in Progress, I explore the gap between knowing and doing, why taking action can feel so much harder than gaining insight, and how we can mistake the feeling of progress for actual progress.
Through my experience as a leadership coach and a personal story about sharing a message that seemed obvious but deeply resonated with an audience, I reflect on why growth doesn't always require a new answer. Sometimes, it requires the courage to act on the answer we already have.
Because knowing is comfortable. Doing is scary.

#4 - Oh, to Be Known
What does it mean to be truly known? Not for what we accomplish or the roles we carry, but for who we are underneath it all. In this episode, I reflect on the people who have known me, loved me, challenged me, and helped me become who I am. Because maybe we don't need more people telling us how to be better. Maybe we need more places where we can be fully human, tell the truth, and know we don't have to become someone else to be loved.

#3 - Feeling or Hiding?
We’re often told to feel our feelings, but what if we can get stuck there too?
In this episode, we explore the tension between suppressing what we feel and becoming so consumed by our emotions that we stop moving forward.
Emotional strength may not be about feeling less or feeling more, but learning when to feel, when to move, and how to see ourselves clearly.

#2 - What If They're Wrong About You?
What if they're wrong about you?
Sometimes one person's criticism can stay with us for years. We start believing what they said, allowing their opinion to shape how we see ourselves and hold us back from the life we want.
In this episode, Eric explores how other people's opinions can become our own limitations, and what it takes to stop letting someone else's voice define who we are.

#1 - The Next Mountain Won’t Be Enough
What if the thing you're chasing will never make you happy for long?
We spend our lives believing the next job, promotion, achievement, relationship, or milestone will finally make us feel fulfilled. Then we get there. It feels incredible. Until eventually, it becomes normal, and we're looking toward the next thing.
This episode explores the hedonic treadmill, the endless pursuit of happiness, and the danger of making achievement responsible for our sense of enoughness.
