Episode Details

In this episode, Carl questions a phrase many of us repeat without thinking: “The stakes are so high.” He explores what happens when we pause long enough to ask who decided that in the first place, and whether holding everything with such intensity actually helps us do our best work. It’s a thoughtful invitation to care deeply about what matters without carrying the unnecessary weight of believing everything depends on the outcome.
