    I'm working on learning how to be stoic and more in the moment, I been worrying too much about past & future, I've been using positive outlets to express my pain such as writing stories/poems and making UA-cam videos about it, but I gotta learn how to become present and be in the moment, not get so lost worrying about past and future

      Awesome that you are aware and taking personal responsibility when it's become trendy to remain a victim

    Great meditation to start the day. I am still a fan of MTV all because of VJ Karen Duffy. "How long are you going to wait until you expect the best for yourself"- hard-hitting, real, and powerful words. She was a trailblazer before her diagnosis, and she is a stellar example to all those dealing with chronic pain on how to manage daily living without opiods, pain medication dependance.

    My god... still beautiful after all these years. And intelligent with a sense if humor. The trifecta!

    What a great conversation. I had no idea Karen has this disease and what she's endured. Much to be inspired by.

    Duff. Wow. Be still my Gen-X heart.
    No seriously, several videos ago I had commented on the stoics would deal with chronic illness. I know I -- unknowingly -- lived the stoic ideal back in 2001 when I had chemo/radiation while we were expecting our first child. Now, dealing with long-term side effects from it -- specifically some form of dysautonomia that literally does NOT still my heart despite several medications -- I'm struggling with that willpower to endure.
    Looking forward to this episode for sure.

    I love the music at the beginning of your videos. I clicked the link to the song and loved it I’m blown away it doesn’t have more views.

    hey Ryan, thank you so much for your videos,
    they have totally changed the way I approach my reading and learning.
    I'm so excited for rereading some of my favourites and chewing the cud.
    I had one small question to do with how you read that I haven't found you mentione.
    do you read one book at a time or multiple books. do you have any more thoughts of the process of actually reading?
    thanks for all you do.

    Mrs. Duffy, please read this. Have you tried the Wim Hof Method? Or keto diet and fasting? These are known to cure illnesses.

    Good info but painful to listen to her, to many Ah’s and Um and pausing. Just get to the point. The pauses are boring
