Hey EarBuddies, What's your relationship to learning like? Do you actively seek it out? This week's newsletter comes to us from Knowable, a company that offers audio courses intended to build new skills. They are obsessed with lifelong learning. AND they've given EarBuds listeners free access to a few of their episodes! Stay healthy, folks! -- Arielle Nissenblatt, founder of EarBuds

WHY THIS THEME?: They say graduating college is simply the beginning, not the end. As a young adult, in my mid-twenties, I have been trying to find ways to continue education myself, beyond my daily routine. I have found that being a lifelong learner allows me to explore new ideas, have better conversations, and most importantly, understand myself.
MONDAY: On Purpose with Jay Shetty - The Fifth Vital Sign - 60 minutes
Jay Shetty interviews leadership coach Robin Sharma on his new book, The 5AM Club. In addition to explaining his 20-20-20 formula on how to structure your morning for optimal daily productivity, he also introduces concepts about freeing yourself from distractions, the nature of the mind, and tapping into your primal genius. Learning can also get you into the flow state, which triggers the release of dopamine in your brain and helps you deal with stress and anxiety.
TUESDAY: Knowable - Sex Hurts - 34 minutes Hosted by a team of behavioral psychologists, memory champions, polyglots, and masterminds explains their proven strategies and teaches you how to learn better. I particularly enjoyed hearing from Yanjaa Wintersoul, a Mongolian 3x memory champion. You can listen to this course for free on Knowable! WEDNESDAY: Knowable - Trauma - 47 minutes Hosted by master communicators (including the 2019 world champion), speechwriters, and vocal coaches (including a longtime NPR voice coach), this course teaches you how to speak in any setting, from presenting to clients, to giving a wedding toast, to schmoozing at dinner parties. Knowable is giving Earbuds readers an exclusive coupon code to access this course for free! Redeem the course by using the code earbuds on their website today. THURSDAY: The Ground Up Show - Why are ER bills so crazy? With Sarah Kliff of Vox.com - 19 minutes Josh Janssen from The Daily Talk Show joins Matt D’Avella to discuss waking up early, morning routines & why we care how others start their day. FRIDAY: A Tribe Called Yes - The Attack - 23 minutes In this episode, host Daron K Roberts interviews me about how I traveled from LA to NY relying solely on connections made via social media. This was a profound experience and the first time that I began to truly believe the idea that you can learn something incredibly unique and fascinating from anyone. I wanted to share this because it was the first time that I began to be a lifelong learner.
SELF PROMO:
I recently joined a company called Knowable, a platform for screen-free, audio-first courses led by experts. I was attracted to this company because I often found myself enjoying the format of podcasts, but didn't feel like I was receiving the knowledge like from an audiobook. Knowable is the perfect medium, a great way to learn a new skill on the go, while keeping my engaged and interested. Follow Knowable on Twitter and Instagram.
