I've listened to them multiple times at this point and I think they highlight some wide-ranging but very important areas of interest for me - personal growth, happiness and self-reflection, Bitcoin and blockchain decentralization, and global macroeconomic shifts. These are both deep dives and long episodes but I highly encourage you to check them out!   Naval Ravikant on Happiness, Reducing Anxiety, Crypto Stablecoins, and More | The Tim Ferriss Show  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiYo14wylQw  Balaji Srinivasan - Bitcoin and Ethereum, Crypto Oracles, and More | The Tim Ferriss Show  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eim8REOYLzA

Never needed it and now it feels like I have an addiction. Withdrawal symptoms were brutal so I want to see what life is like on the other side again.

The Big Dance aka March Madness starts this week and if I wasn't excited enough about it, I'm even more hyped because my team The Fighting Illini have a had a great season and are projected to do well! Going to set up an AfterSound bracket and give something fun to the winner so keep an eye out! I'm also excited for Zack Snyder's Justice League which is set to come out this week. Regardless of how you feel about the movies, it's great that Zack is being given the opportunity to finish his creative vision!

Used that time to be lazy and catch up on a lot of TV so here are some thoughts on the WandaVision finale (and whole season), as well as For All Mankind which is currently airing season 2 and Ted Lasso (hidden gem for sure).

First discovered it while looking for shows similar to Game of Thrones but as a sci-fi fan, it has become one of the best shows I've seen ever. Highly recommend it!

Coffee with AfterSound - Ep. 20 - What Supplements Do I Put In My Coffee?!  Audio Version of the Podcast - https://anchor.fm/theaftersoundexperience Listen on Spotify/Apple Music - https://linktr.ee/aftersound  Many of you folks have asked what kind of supplements I add to my coffee so I thought I'd do an episode on that. JUST TO REITERATE - I am not a medical professional so PLEASE do your own research into all of these items and how they can affect your body.   1) MCT Oil - for cognitive improvement, especially if you are on keto or a low carb diet.    2) Collagen - helps with hair, skin and nails and should be taken on an empty stomach which is why I include it with my coffee.   3) Lion's Mane Mushroom - many cognitive benefits reported here including focus and memory.   4) Bacopa Monnieri - helps with forming and retaining memory.   Connect:  Instagram - http://hyperurl.co/aftersoundinstagram Tiktok - https://vm.tiktok.com/sfwC4f/ Twitter - http://hyperurl.co/aftersoundtwitter Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/aftersoundmusic

I wanted to share my experience as well as 3 tips that can help you out on your own TikTok journey!   1) Post as much as can, especially when starting out!   2) Go live as much as possible (once you reach 1000 followers).    3) Stop filtering yourself!  I go into each of these in more depth in the video.

So grateful and humbled for all the kind messages/calls/etc. Felt the love and am deeply appreciative of you all! I'm setting a couple of goals for myself for this coming year and I want to put them out there into the world so I can keep myself accountable. Consistency is the theme this year and I want to do my best to create more content on a consistent basis.  Here we go: 1) Post a new TAE episode every single Monday. Whether that is with a guest or some tips/updates from myself, I'm aiming to have a new video out every week. 2) New music every Friday. Whether that's a cover, remix, or new music altogether, I am challenging myself to create as much as I can. I'll admit it's a little daunting but I'm also excited about it. Putting this out there into the world makes me nervous but also gives me hope for sticking with it. Please help me stay accountable to myself! ---------------------- What I'm Reading - October 2019 Book of the Month  'How to Make It In the New Music Business' - Ari Herstand (https://amzn.to/2VkNbCw) Equipment Used:AKG P220  Vocal Condenser Microphone - https://amzn.to/2mfhE8h PreSonous Advanced Recording AudioBox 44VSL System - https://amzn.to/2mfkvhv Behringer HPS3000 Studio Headphones - https://amzn.to/2lO9CTy Behringer HPS1000 Studio Headphones - https://amzn.to/2MlJ1Gy Dragonpad USA 6" Microphone Studio Pop Filter - https://amzn.to/2o0cspn Blue Microphones Bluebird: https://amzn.to/2oPWgax
