TELOS | The Purpose Podcast

About TELOS | The Purpose Podcast

TELOS (τέλος) is an ancient Greek word meaning end, purpose, or ultimate aim. This podcast is built around that idea. I’m Louis, I’m 20 years old, and I started TELOS to have meaningful conversations with people who have lived, failed, rebuilt, competed, reflected, and learned. From athletes to entrepreneurs, thinkers to performers — every guest brings insight into what it means to pursue purpose in the real world. We talk about mindset, responsibility, resilience, philosophy, discipline, competition, and the practical lessons that shape a life. No noise. No gimmicks. Just honest conversation.

   How To Choose Your Emotions | Doug Johnston

   In this episode of TELOS: The Purpose Podcast, I sit down with Doug Johnston, author of Choosing Emotions, to explore one of the most important questions in life:Can we actually choose our emotions, or are we being controlled by them?Doug’s work looks at hundreds of emotions and emotional conditions, helping people better understand what they feel, why they feel it, and how emotions shape the way we think, act, react, and live.In this conversation, we explore anxiety, anger, addiction, depression, acceptance, stoicism, emotional discipline, social media, and why so many people today seem emotionally reactive but emotionally unaware.We also speak about powerful ideas such as depression being “the inability to construct a future,” whether anger distorts reality, whether addiction is really a form of emotional escape, and why learning the language of emotion can help us understand ourselves better.This episode is about the mind, the heart, and the emotions that quietly control our lives.If you’ve ever felt anxious, angry, stuck, reactive, overwhelmed, or unsure why you feel the way you do, this conversation is for you.Subscribe to TELOS for more conversations around purpose, meaning, psychology, philosophy, spirituality, performance, and the deeper questions of life.Choosing Emotions – https://amzn.eu/d/06E1Mr43
