Episode Details

John Bliss is a writer, thinker, entrepreneur, and lifelong student of life’s biggest questions. A self-described skeptic and individualist, he challenges easy answers and the assumptions many of us accept without question. After more than 13 years of writing, he authored *The False Paradigm of Today and the Timeless Truth of Tomorrow*, exploring meaning, identity, society, and what it means to live a good life.

In this thought-provoking conversation, John shares:

• What kind of kid he was and how curiosity about life began

• Limiting beliefs from his 20s that he later had to dismantle

• A simple cognitive technique that helped silence his inner critic

• What entrepreneurship taught him about fear, comfort, and success

• Why most people stay stuck in comfort — and how to move beyond it

• Reflections on meaning, identity, and living on your own terms

If you’re in your 20s questioning the narratives you were given, dealing with self-doubt, or wondering what a “good life” really means, this episode offers sharp, honest perspective.

John’s work invites people to disrupt false paradigms and think for themselves.
