Author: Wil ”Wize” Otero December 4, 2023 Duration: 42:20
In this episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, Alan Cox joins the conversation from New Zealand, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience in mental fitness, design thinking, and problem-solving. He unpacks insights into the world of mental health apps, shedding light on the lack of efficacy and high deletion rates among them. As a response to this, Cox unveils his innovative app, EverYellow, which stands out in its approach to mental well-being and conditioning through personalized coaching experiences and music. He shares compelling validation testing results that underscore the app's effectiveness in improving users' overall well-being. The engaging dialogue then shifts to Wize El Jefe, who shares his journey of learning audio and video editing skills from YouTube after being furloughed from work. He discusses how podcasting has become a purposeful endeavor, aiming to offer content that resonates with people and helps them overcome challenges. Alan Cox imparts valuable insights into finding joy and growth in what one does, and being a good human being. The conversation delves into the importance of purpose, positive relationships, and mental literacy in defining mental well-being and fitness. Alan's exploration of mental fitness, sparked by his experience of surviving the Canterbury earthquakes and a major mental breakdown, lends a compelling narrative to the discussion. His journey of self-discovery through studying Taoism, Buddhism, and neuroscience, while utilizing resources like YouTube, resonates deeply with the audience. The episode concludes with gratitude and appreciation for Alan Cox's meaningful contributions, leaving listeners enlightened and inspired. This power-packed episode is a testament to the Stuck In My Mind Podcast's commitment to providing enriching content that empowers mental fitness and well-being.

There's a particular kind of conversation that happens when someone is genuinely willing to be honest about the messy path from struggle to clarity. That's the space Wil "Wize" Otero cultivates each week on the Stuck In My Mind Podcast. From his home in the Poconos, Wize-a life coach and media CEO-sits down with a compelling mix of founders, artists, and everyday people who have navigated significant hurdles. These aren't polished success tales, but rather raw, unfiltered dialogues that dissect the mental blocks, the failed attempts, and the personal breakthroughs that finally led to progress. You'll hear discussions that span practical business strategy, the discipline of physical fitness, and the nuanced work of mental and emotional health, all tied together by a theme of tangible self-improvement. This podcast operates on the belief that real growth isn't about a perfect mindset, but about understanding and moving through the thoughts we get stuck on. It's for anyone who feels their own ambition is sometimes hindered by their own inner narrative and who wants to listen in on conversations that feel like a candid talk with a friend who isn't afraid to ask the hard questions. Tune in for a sense of community and actionable perspective, whether you're building a company, a healthier body, or simply a more resilient frame of mind.
