Why You’ve Lost Your Curiosity (And How to Get It Back)

This is the first episode in the "Rediscover" mini-series! Our goal for this first conversation is to present a rapid-fire series of surprising ideas, images, stories, and reflections —all designed to awaken you to the wonder already embedded in the world around (and within) you. If you’re in a creative rut, in the middle of a major life pivot, or looking for a shot of curiosity, this episode is a reminder: the world is good, packed with hidden goodness, and worth rediscovering. ⸻ In this episode: • Curiosity as a spiritual practice • Art that causes riots, and desserts that defy logic • Why beetles made Dave angry (and then transformed his life) • The mystery of a caterpillar that turns into a snake • The power of the effort paradox and beautiful limits • Why rediscovery isn’t about adding more, it’s about seeing differently ⸻ 👋 About the Hosts: Benji Block helps people rediscover their core values and build lives of clarity and meaning.
