The One With Majors On The MindWhat happens when the code stops compiling—but it’s not your job, it’s your life? In this episode, Nick sits down with Derrick Song, a software engineer turned ultra runner, to talk about what happens when burnout forces you off the grid and onto the trail.Derrick opens up about the cultural pressures of being Asian-American in the tech world, the unexpected therapy he found through endurance running, and why he's learning to measure success in miles, not metrics.This conversation goes deep—into masculinity, healing, mental health, and what it really means to feel “enough.” Whether you run to race or to escape, this one’s for anyone who's ever felt like life was sprinting past them—and decided to chase it down on foot.Derrick IG: @derickvsworldSpecial Childrens Charities Link : Donate Here
