The Ruskin Seabrook Experience

In this solo episode, I share what’s been on my mind during my morning runs—from building emotional savings with Moriah to breathing through a brutal cramp on a 25-mile bike ride. I open up about preparing for fatherhood, the lessons I’ve learned from elite athletes, and how tools like AI are shaping (and sometimes hijacking) my thinking. If you’ve ever felt like you’re on the edge of something great, or just trying to stay present while building your future, this one’s for you. This is a public episode.

This week’s episode is a collection of reflections from my morning runs, creative process, and life lately.I talk about the mindset shift that comes from running through a wealthy neighborhood every day—and how it’s reshaping my view of what’s possible. I reflect on how Moriah’s online presence has affected her career (in ways I didn’t expect), why sharing the process matters when building trust, and how a cramp on a trail ride reminded me to take care of myself before I hit a wall.There are updates on pregnancy, what I learned working at Van Michael Salon, the importance of how we finish things (shoutout Jesse Itzler), and a climbing goal I’ve quietly been chasing.This episode is about mindset, momentum, and the small realizations that add up over time.

I recently listened to The Almanack of Naval Ravikant, and something about it stuck with me in a big way. Not because I want to copy Naval’s life—but because his ideas helped me slow down, question some assumptions, and start thinking about what kind of life I actually want to build.This episode isn’t a book summary. It’s me, talking through the ten ideas that hit hardest. What they mean to me. Where I agree. Where I hesitate. And how I might use them in my life as a creator, a husband, and someone getting ready to become a father.Here’s some of what I cover:* Why long-term relationships are the foundation for everything* What it means to earn with your mind, not your time* How desire quietly creates unhappiness—and what I’m doing about it* Why escaping competition means being fully, unapologetically yourself* How happiness is something I now see as a skill, not a rewardThis podcast is part of Season 1 of The Ruskin Seabrook Experience—where I practice being a better host, reflect on life in real-time, and try to grow more honest in how I show up.If you’re listening, thank you for being here.
