Bernie talks about one of his most provocative ideas: Reasons are bull****, explaining that they often serve as excuses. Dropping them can unlock clarity and greater self-awareness, and don't we all need that? We also hear how being chronically late led to a personal epiphany—and a lasting habit shift.
Plus, Bernie reveals the story behind the podcast’s name: a child spotting a cat with yellow eyes became a metaphor for worldview shifts.
