Jay sits down with Harvard Business School professor Alison Wood Brooks, author of Talk: The Science of Conversation and the Art of Being Ourselves, to explore what makes great conversations actually work and where most of us get it wrong. Together, they unpack how to choose better topics, embrace the messiness of real dialogue, master the three stages of listening, and give compliments that genuinely connect.

The Surprising Reason You're Still Unhappy
21 augustus 2026 · 33 min
Jay breaks down the difference between healthy self-reflection and the kind of rumination that keeps you stuck in your own head. He shares four practical shifts to help you break the cycle, from redirecting your attention and resisting isolation to finding purpose through serving others and stepping into what Maslow called self-transcendence.

PARIS JACKSON: “No Intervention Could Have Gotten Me Sober”
17 augustus 2026 · 1 uur 10 min
Musician and artist Paris Jackson joins Jay for an extraordinarily raw, courageous, and deeply honest conversation on addiction, recovery, and the messy, non-linear journey of healing. Paris reflects on her unconventional childhood, the chronic loneliness that shadowed her early years, and the dark reality of substance abuse that nearly cost her her life and her voice. She opens up about the trauma of adolescent rehab centers, surviving severe mental health crises, and why true recovery requires moving beyond symptom-focused treatment to embrace holistic health, self-grace, and spiritual surrender. Together, Jay and Paris explore the power of inner child work, why pain can be alchemized into medicine, and how finding a conscious connection to something higher can help us feel truly safe in our own skin. Lees meer
Healing is not linear, and growth is not a straight line, it’s a spiral. Every time you revisit a challenge, you are meeting it with more wisdom, more resources, and a deeper capacity for self-forgiveness. Trust that your darkest moments can become your most potent medicine, and that peace begins the moment you give yourself permission to feel it all.

Ready to Find Love? Start with These 5 Shifts
7 augustus 2026 · 30 min
The greatest barrier to finding love isn't a lack of chemistry, it's a lack of opportunity. Jay explores why modern dating feels so exhausting and reveals the psychology behind attraction, offering practical ways to build a life that naturally invites love in. If you're feeling burned out by the search for "the one," this conversation is an invitation to release rigidity, handle rejection as data, and find hope for moving forward. Lees meer
Probability doesn't promise that your soulmate is waiting around the corner, but it does promise that tomorrow is not predetermined by yesterday. Trust that every new community and conversation makes space for the right connection, and that a life rich with curiosity will always lead you forward.

Actress and musician Simone Ashley joins Jay for an intimate conversation about navigating sudden global fame, redefining self-worth beyond career expectations, and letting go of societal timelines.
