Hey, Heal Squad! We’re back with Part 2 of our chat with TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie. After years of depression and feeling disconnected from himself, Blake realized something surprising: the life he had built no longer matched the person he really was. In this conversation, he shares the exercise that helped him identify where he was living out of alignment, why he traded a lifestyle that looked successful on paper for one that actually felt authentic, and how learning to stop performing for the world helped him reconnect with himself. Maria and Blake also get into one of the biggest questions we should all be asking ourselves: Are we living the life we truly want—or the life we think we're supposed to want? Together, they talk about why turning 40 can be the perfect time to reevaluate everything, from where you live and who you surround yourself with to how you define success, happiness, and purpose. You'll also hear some of the lighter moments from Blake's healing journey—including the story behind his new "You Are Enough" tattoo, why Matthew McConaughey challenged him to take himself out on a solo dinner date, and the simple practices that help keep him grounded today.This episode is packed with 5 daily practices to build a life that feels like yours. They also dive into the lessons Blake is learning from guests on his new podcast No Magic Pill, the daily practices that keep him grounded, and his new movement We Are ENOUGH. Enjoy!
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS
5 ways to live in alignment with who you really are. Use an alignment journaling exercise, take yourself out to dinner, establish a morning routine, wear a daily reminder (bracelet, tattoo, object you can see), repeat the "I am enough" mantra meditation
Loneliness at the top isn't about success—it's about disconnection. The more we perform for validation, the less connected we become to ourselves and the people around us.
Healing often requires rebuilding. From where you live to who you spend time with, Blake explains why real transformation sometimes means having the courage to start over.
