Mark Zuckerberg, Gurus and White T-Shirts.

This week on the Kintsugi Podcast, I celebrated National Sticker Day by handing out 1,000 glow-in-the-dark stickers because stickers aren’t just for kids, they’re for everyone. They’re more than decoration; they’re reminders to pause, breathe, and reflect. I also explored the power of compassion over empathy and shared how you can help communities affected by the California wildfires through our new “Choose Compassion” sweatshirt. Plus, we unpacked the myth of 10,000 steps and revisited the timeless “white t-shirt” habits of wellness—simple, effective practices that never go out of style. Let’s approach health with care, discernment, and heart.
