One of the other things that I've learned along the way, being an entrepreneur myself and also working with and supporting hundreds of others over a period of years, is that it can be a profoundly lonely pursuit.
It's the type of thing where even if you have a team and a substantial company, very often you need somebody else to turn to, people who are sort of parallel playing along the way with you.
So we've created something for you.
It's called the 108, and it's a conscious business collective of similar founders, capped at no more than 108 people, where we are all in.
It's a safe, protected space, a place where you can get true, confidential, uplifting advice, wisdom, input, and no longer travel this road alone.

And just a super quick heads up that we're down to about the final 25 spots.
So if you've been thinking about this and listening for a while, probably a good idea not to wait a whole lot longer.
On to our show.
Hey there, it's Jonathan with this week's Good Life project riff.
So I don't know if you've noticed, but we live in a bit of uncertain times, and that may be the understatement of the decade right now, and a lot of people are struggling.
And I've explored, I've researched, I've studied, I've written about uncertainty, constant shifts, living in the unknown for a lot of years because it fascinates me and has always fascinated me, especially in the context of large scale creative ventures or careers or entrepreneurial ventures.
What I learned is that there are a lot of things that help in those spaces that also help in life.
In fact, I wrote a book called uncertainty that came out in 2011 that's getting a fair bit of new attention these days just because of what's happening around us.
And I was reflecting on that, and there was one thing that I wrote about, I call them certainty anchors, that I thought it might make sense to kind of revisit and share with you.
So I'm actually going to share this short excerpt from the book with you.
So from the dawn of religion, nearly every faith has been built around not just scripture, not just community, but ritual.
