Episode 422: Simon Says Squat

from Freshly Grounded

👉 Episode notes: https://notes.fg.media 👉 GET TICKETS TO LIVE TOUR: https://fg.live Faisal and Kaya are joined by Simon "Simon Says Squat" for a wide-ranging, unfiltered conversation that starts with AI and content… and ends up somewhere much deeper. They talk honestly about: - how AI should be used as a tool, not a replacement for thinking - why doom-scrolling rewires your brain towards stress and negativity - parenting in the age of information overload - raising children with a strong Muslim identity without forcing it - Qur'an time with kids: when to be gentle, when to be firm - habits vs environments (and why forcing rarely works) - preparing for Ramadan without burnout or guilt why doing the basics consistently beats chasing extremes - how forgetting death makes us careless, and remembering it puts everything back in place Simon also opens up about how the passing of Lats deeply affected him, forcing real self-reflection about purpose, legacy, and how we're actually living. 👉 Faisal's parenting seminar: https://parenting.faisal.live 👉 Join FG Premium: https://fgtribe.com 📧 Freshly Grounded Newsletter: https://tribe.freshlygrounded.com/subscribe 💪 Buy The Game: https://shop.freshlygrounded.com ----------------------------------------­­­­­­­­---------------------------------­-­-­-­-­ ✉️ Contact Us  • Instagram: http://instagram.com/Freshly_Grounded • E-mail: [email protected] ----------------------------------------­­­­­­­­---------------------------------­-­-­-­-­- The views expressed by our guests do not necessarily reflect the views of Freshly Grounded or its hosts.
