Send us Fan MailEaster was Sunday. But the Good News didn't stop when the decorations came down. This week: Jason launched his newsletter and the show has new viewers — here's what we're actually doing here and why it matters. A friend of the family lost his life at 15 years old — and Easter gives us the only real answer. The Hewlett family almost didn't go to Cabo for spring break... then they saw a whale. And the fitness lesson nobody talks about: it's not just WHAT you do — it's WHEN. Discipline in the right order changes everything.Freedom of Speech: "Where Is the Good News?"From the Newsfeed: "The Good News Edition"Faith & Hope: "The Week That Held Both"Father Time: "We Almost Didn't Go — And Then We Saw a Whale"The Funny Factory: "The Mexico Research Spiral"Fitness Minute: "Discipline IN ORDER"🔔 Subscribe for new episodes every Thursday at 3pm MST👉 A huge thank you to our sponsor, Cardio Miracle!

Send us Fan MailWhat happens to your brain when you go from back-to-back career highs to the worst crowd of your life? Jason unpacks the neuroscience of success-failure whiplash, Carol Dweck's growth mindset research, Brené Brown's arena philosophy, the hedonic treadmill, and why the fall from a peak always hurts worse than starting from the bottom. This one is personal.#TheJasonHewlettShow #TheFullStory #CharacterOverPerformance #GrowthMindset #PerformerLife #Resilience #BreneBrown #CarolDweck #ThePromise #SilentRoom

Send us Fan MailEvery time you break a promise to yourself, something breaks inside you. Jason unpacks Bandura's self-efficacy research, Festinger's cognitive dissonance, Forbes Feb 2026 on why self-promises collapse, and the Carey Center's truth: "When you break your promises, you break yourself." Then: how small kept promises restore the self-trust you've been quietly destroying.#TheJasonHewlettShow #TheFullStory #ThePromise #BrokenPromise #SelfTrust #Psychology #BanduraSelfEfficacy #CognitiveDissonance #JamesClear #KeepYourPromise

Send us Fan MailWhat if the most powerful leadership move is doing nothing for five seconds?Tonight Jason Hewlett breaks down the 5-Second Pause — the science, the scripture, and the real-life cost of reacting too fast. A 2024 Communications Psychology study found that a 5-second delay reduces aggression as effectively as 15 seconds. MIT research shows people who pause are perceived as more confident, more trustworthy, and more competent. Neuroscientist Wendi Zimmer confirms even 1-2 seconds activates the prefrontal cortex — without it, your amygdala runs the show. But this isn't just brain science. Jason unpacks Mel Robbins' 5 Second Rule — and flips it. She says don't think, move. He says don't move, think. Both are right.Freedom of Speech: "The 5-Second Pause"The Full Story: "Your Brain on Five Seconds— The Neuroscience of Not Reacting"From the Newsfeed: The Resume That Arrived by Mail: Why the Best Career Move in 2026 Is Slowing DownFaith & Hope: "Be Still and Know"Father Time: "The Doorway Reset"The Funny Factory: "Every Time You Didn't Pause"Fitness Minute: "Rest-Pause: Your Body Already Knows"🔔 Subscribe for new episodes every Thursday at 3pm ET👉 A huge thank you to our sponsor, Cardio Miracle!
