Faraz Zaidi is the founder and creative director of Profound, a luxury streetwear brand. We recorded this episode during Ramadan (April 2023) and I was thinking of holding it until the next Ramadan but I think there are a lot of really interesting concepts we cover that will be valuable for people of all backgrounds. We reflect really deeply on the benefits of abstaining from many of life's temptations and how the month-long reset fuels so much beauty, introspection, and gratitude for the community. We discuss Zaidi's superpower which is empathy – he's such a sweet and kind soul who has a creative vision for not only clothing, apparel, home goods, and the world but the way he thinks about things is really unique. We also dig into compartmentalizing life's intricacies, reframing burnout, and what it's like to manage our time and energy in productive ways. Recorded at Spotify Labs in Brooklyn.

Fariha Róisín is a queer Mulsim Bangladeshi multidisciplinary artist, writer, author, poet, astrologer, and consultant based in Los Angeles. Born in Ontario, Canada, and raised in Sydney, Australia, Róisín explores the margins as a thought pioneer through the culture of healing. Róisín was so vulnerable and open in this conversation. We go super deep into healing money wounds, how our identities are shaped and how they relate to our perceived value and worthiness, and how those things are so integrated into the ways we interact with the constructs of capitalism. We explore the luxury of wellness and who gets to practice wellness and be well, we talk about art, food, weed, pleasure – and its role in healing. Róisín's best-selling books How To Cure A Ghost, Being In Your Body, Like A Bird and Who Is Wellness For? span poetry and nonfiction exploring delicate relationships with family, self, and the "other."

Social impact entrepreneur, chef, DJ and food justice advocate Mark Brand, shares his layered journey and implores us to build purpose into the design of a business. He has created over a dozen businesses like a charitable kitchen, a diner, a brewery, a butcher shop – in many cases, made to support those struggling with food insecurity and addiction.

An incredible music journalist, critic, and the author of The Butterfly Effect: How Kendrick Lamar Ignited the Soul of Black America, Moore graciously shares his nonlinear journey from a city-specific reporter to the imposter syndrome of writing his second book on legendary hip hop group, De La Soul.

We get to know the real Mr. Carmack, digging into the role of his multi-racial background and upbringing in San Francisco, the evolution of his personal journey coming up on Soundcloud and how he holistically monetized his art over the past decade.…
