The email from Stripe is essentially asking if you'd like to continue your access beyond the free period. You have two options: If you'd like to continue...

I'm not sure I know anyone who had an 'easy' or straightforward year last year. For the past six months, Kelly and I have been running an experiment in Costa Rica, exploring...

Hey Reader, Over the past week, I've shared some of the ideas that underpin our approach to anxiety: the reframe, the 10-second window, and why bottom-up beats top-down. Today, I want to give you a clearer picture of what the 15-Day Rewire Anxiety Challenge looks like from the inside. The journey is structured in three sections: Days 1-5: Cultivate Calm Before you can rewire anything, you need access to a calmer baseline. This initial section gives you immediate, research-backed tools to...

For the past few months, we’ve created and quietly launched a comprehensive course on rewiring anxiety. Starting January 5th, the 15-Day Rewire Anxiety Challenge will be a condensed sprint through protocols that over 1,400+ students have used to transform their relationship with anxiety. Why a challenge? From my experience, unlearning anxiety is a skill and skills require focused effort, stakes, and community to stick. Here's what you can expect: 15x expert theory + guided practice sessions...

Midjourney art inspired by a moment surfing last week // INNER FRONTIER EDITION #6 HQ Greetings from the Costa Rican coastline! Kelly and I have been searching for a nervous system-friendly place to start our family, and while it is far less convenient to live out here (no Amazon deliveries or paved roads), so far, we're appreciating the benefits that come from being immersed in abundant nature. I don't yet know what to expect in six months when the baby arrives, or how fatherhood will shape...

// INNER FRONTIER HQ Welcome to The Inner Frontier: Edition #1 7 years ago, I hit publish on the first Curious Humans Newsletter, and today — hundreds of issues and 72 podcast episodes later — the project comes to a close. The Curious Humans project was born from my obsession with the question of why, as kids, most of us were immensely curious, what was it that suppressed this as we grew older, and how might we go about reclaiming this as adults. It's hard to overstate how much I learnt and...

NOTE FROM JONNY — Hello Curious Human 👋 I'm writing this update from the redwoods of NorCal, where Kelly and I are taking a moment to catch our breath after a whirlwind few weeks on the road... (From exploring consciousness research at Edge Esmeralda, visiting the UK and doing a podcast tour in Austin, to preparing for our upcoming breathwork retreat, and soon relocating our family to Costa Rica... phew!) I'm also stoked to share a project (see below), teaming up with Holstee, whose ethos...
