Show Notes

In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl explores the idea that most problems are simply projections—fears about a future that may never happen. Drawing on Wendell Berry's poetic wisdom and Mark Twain's humor, Carl reflects on how humans often tax themselves with "forethought of grief," carrying unnecessary worries as if they were real. Through this lens, he invites listeners to take inspiration from nature, letting go of imagined problems to live more fully in the present.
