Hosted by Daniel Boyd, a former military engineer, licensed counselor and therapist at the master’s level, and lifelong truth-seeker, this show tackles the uncomfortable truths behind growth, trauma, ego, relationships, and identity.
We blend lived experience with peer-reviewed research to break down what actually helps people evolve.
From Spiral Dynamics and emotional regulation to true narcissism, self-deception, and post-trauma integration, this isn’t your typical performative self-help.
It’s Information & Insight for Your Life™.

Real Talk Add-on:
This podcast has evolved over the last three years; just like I have, and just like (hopefully) we all do.
Some episodes will land hard. Some might miss. That’s the reality of growth. It’s not always polished, but it’s always real.
And yeah, let’s be honest: the algorithm rarely favors shows like this.
Not when it’s built on nuance instead of outrage.
But that’s not the point.
If an episode hits you in a way that matters, share it with someone who’s ready for more than surface-level.
This isn’t a performance. This is the work.
And the ones who need it most?
Sometimes they’ll only hear it when it’s placed directly in front of them. By another human.

The Rot Between Lives (An Existential Horror Thought)
"The Rot Between Lives"
What if time isn't linear? What if we're trapped in bubbles, cycling through the same life, over and over, making different choices each time, never realizing we've done it all before? Now imagine this, when we die, our consciousness, still tethered to the decaying matter of our last body, compresses time, launching us into the next iteration instantly. But here's the problem, decay isn't just physical, it's existential. Each cycle, the remnants of who we were, bleed into the next, like a corrupted file degrading with every copy.
Maybe that's why some people are born with unexplained phobias, why déjà vu lingers like a whisper from something we almost remember. Maybe the ones who feel the most off aren't crazy, maybe they're just further along in the decay. And if that's true, if each existence is just another broken echo of the last, then the real question isn't where we go when we die, it's how much of us is even left to make the trip.
Sweet dreams folks, may your next reboot be a little less corrupted.
The Rot Between Lives.
What if time isn’t linear? What if we’re trapped in bubbles, cycling through the same life over and over, making different choices each time—never realizing we’ve done it all before?
Now, imagine this: when we die, our consciousness, still tethered to the decaying matter of our last body, compresses time—launching us into the next iteration instantly. But here’s the problem… decay isn’t just physical. It’s existential.
Each cycle, the remnants of who we were bleed into the next, like a corrupted file degrading with every copy. Maybe that’s why some people are born with unexplainable phobias. Why déjà vu lingers like a whisper from something we almost remember. Maybe the ones who feel the most “off” aren’t crazy… maybe they’re just further along in the decay.
And if that’s true… if each existence is just another broken echo of the last… then the real question isn’t where we go when we die.
It’s how much of us is even left to make the trip.
Sweet dreams, folks. May your next reboot be a little less corrupted.
