I'm a woman trapped in a man's body analysing dating advice for women given by a man.

In #505 of 'Meanderings', Juan and I discuss: three dating and relationships books (The New Rules, Get the Guy and Attached), how prescriptive “rules” aimed at women can backfire, why some advice feels outdated (Facebook walls and BBM), how scarcity games tend to attract the very players you might want to avoid, why attachment styles are useful as a lens but less so as a to‑do list, a focus on authenticity over mere effectiveness, watch the influence of your friend circle, understand how strong male sexual drive can shape dating dynamics, apply Pareto principles to health and appearance first, build an interesting life (travel, skills, community) and learning to read yourself so you don’t try to fill loneliness with just anyone.

No boostagrams this week, very sad puppy.

Training in the morning was not always the "it" thing for me, but it evolved just as everything else does.

Set a consistent wake-up time and protect it. Even on rest days, move your body. The structure creates mental sharpness that spills into everything else.

This episode dives into the evolution of training as a lifelong practice — from ego-driven lifting to a disciplined anchor that holds together family life, mental clarity, and a grounded sense of purpose.

There is a reason why the art 'space' is divisive and why money distorts many things.

In Episode #504 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: the book by Magnus Resch titled '100 Secrets of the Art World', tight‑knit gatekeeping at the high end of the market, how control of information shape what gets seen and sold (often more than artistic merit), parallels to other status markets such as watches/supercars, why 'better' often defaults to 'more expensive', where marketing can overshadow craft yet many collectors still buy for love and to support artists and why the truest encounters with art might still be found in small local galleries rather than at Art Basel.

No support for this week, very sad puppy :(
