18 DEC 2024 · As season three of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer comes to a close, I share five impactful lessons I learned throughout 2024. From navigating corporate life to appreciating impressive personal moments among friends, I reflect on a year of growth and transition. I discuss why good communication is so tough (and how to improve it), the importance of cherishing your unique perspective, and the comforting reminder that everyone is learning on the fly. I also highlight how AI is transforming productivity and creativity and is something we should all be knowledgeable about. And I give a well-deserved shout-out to parents—true superheroes in my eyes. As we wrap up the year and this season, I share some thoughts on living more presently and intentionally, and encourage you to check in with yourself as we head into the holidays. Thank you for being on this journey with me, and as always, thank you for letting me be honest with you. Learn more about Julia Landauer at https://julialandauer.com/

4 DEC 2024 · This week on If I’m Honest, I sit down with Francesca Hogi, a former-lawyer-turned-matchmaker and love coach. A fellow contestant from Survivor Season 26, which is how we met, Francesca discuses her insights on redefining love and navigating modern dating. She shares how a turning point in her 30s inspired her to leave a life she didn’t love and jump into something new, even without a clear plan. We explore her lifelong fascination with love, her unique approach to matchmaking, and her thoughts on the current dating climate. Francesca also dives into her four dating archetypes (you can take the quiz at francescahogi.com!), her TED Talk on “The Fairytale Industrial Complex,” and why dating apps aren’t having their best moment. She also opines on why parents can sometimes be “better daters,” why women face more disempowering programming around love, and her concerns around AI and dating. Learn more about Francesca at https://francescahogi.com/ and listen to her podcast, Dear Franny here https://www.iheart.com/podcast/263-dear-franny-59510007/ You can also follow Francesca on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dearfranny/ and watch her TED talk https://www.ted.com/talks/francesca_hogi_true_love_and_the_myth_of_happily_ever_after Learn more about Julia Landauer at https://julialandauer.com/ See https://omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

6 NOV 2024 · Sequel, the femcare company behind The Spiral Tampon, is the first company in 80 years (!) to redesign the tampon. Sequel was founded by Stanford graduates and athletes, and I’m joined by co-founder and CMO Amanda Calabrese on this week’s episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer. We discuss how personal experiences with menstruation in sports led Amanda and her co-founder Greta Meyer to research other people’s relationship with tampons for a product design class at Stanford. With grants secured immediately after college to research and develop their vision, they identified an issue with traditional tampon shapes and re-engineered the design. As a woman co-founder for a women-focused product seeking venture capital funding, which is largely male-dominated, Amanda learned the importance of storytelling and personal branding as a way to connect with people. We also discuss Sequel’s incredible early partnerships with Stanford Athletics, Athleta, USL Super League, and Athletes Unlimited and their future athlete roster.

23 OCT 2024 · Our culture seems to be hitting another spike in our obsession with reducing the effects of aging. In this week’s episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer, I dive into some of the fuss about aging. I talk about Bryan Johnson, the man whose goal of “don’t die” leads him to spend $2M a year to measure and lower his biological age and increase longevity. I describe all the content, ads, and services we see in real life and online that are geared towards minimizing the effects of aging, as well as share my own desire to “maintain my youthful appearance” and what I subscribe to on the anti-aging front. I then share some research from Stanford University that observes age-related changes to the body and at what ages we experience peaks of physical decline. I end the episode by sharing five main things that we can all do to preserve our well-being, as well as suggested foods and nutrients we can consume that may contribute to longevity.

9 OCT 2024 · Gary Klutt, a winner in the NASCAR Canada Series, podcast host, real estate developer, and wellness enthusiast joins me on this week’s episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer. Having originally met in the 2016 NASCAR Next class, we discuss all things racing, career dreams, healthy living, family, and racers who crashed us out at Mosport. Gary shares how his racing career started in a parking lot in a go-kart, the scrappy ways he raised money to go racing, and how he navigated his racing goals with his bigger life goals. We continue on a discussion about how the international NASCAR series are the end goal for many, the importance of sports for kids’ development, and how being a lifelong enthusiast is a more sustainable way to pursue passions. We end our conversation by nerding out on our health and wellness practices, one of which involves taping his mouth shut.

25 SEP 2024 · When my communications coach asked me how I come down off the high of giving a keynote, I was perplexed because I had never tried to actively come down off that feeling. That discussion got me thinking about natural highs, which I explore in this episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer. I talk about the euphoric feeling of a natural high, the science behind how our brains produce this sensation, and things we can do in our day-to-day lives to capture that feeling. I also explain things like where the word “endorphin” comes from, what endocannabinoids are, and things to watch out for. I then pivot to a broader discussion around pleasure; specifically, our cultural tendency to minimize pleasure, why I think that’s problematic, and the greater impact it has on our lives. Because why would we try to minimize things that bring us joy and happiness, especially when the world can be so cruel and dark? Lastly, I share a call to action for how to maximize our chances of feeling joy, happiness, and pleasure. If you or someone you know is struggling with addition, contact The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) 1-800-662-HELP (4357) and https://www.samhsa.gov/find-help/national-helpline You can also call 988 or 911 in the case of an emergency.

11 SEP 2024 · Ash Kalita (known as ashvandelay on social media) is a motorsports Twitch streamer and creator who joins me on this week’s episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer. A fellow New Yorker who also went to one of the specialized public high schools, we immediately bonded over our similar backgrounds that unexpectedly led to careers in motorsports. Ash shares how her Polish heritage led her to root for Robert Kubica in Formula 1, how she found online communities through playing video games during the pandemic, and why she sets boundaries around parasocial relationships online. We also dive into the beauty of the community of women content creators in motorsports, abandoning internal misogyny, and the increase of brands advertising to women in motorsports. I ask Ash to share how she got her gig with Red Bull Oracle Racing, to which she emphasizes the importance of in-person face time and gives a pro-tip for working in corporate. Lastly, we touch on her approach to content creation, her role models in motorsports (shout out to Lyn St. James!) and we end with a rapid fire If You’re Honest.

28 AUG 2024 · This episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer dives into our first topic around the mental side of human performance: emotions and emotional intelligence. Historically, emotions were seen as a hindrance to success, and only recently are we shifting that ideology. Prompted by a David Brooks op-ed that explains how we actively need emotions to make good decisions, I dive into the benefits of properly processing and regulating emotions. I share Marc Brackett’s RULER Method of emotional processing, explain why I think it’s important to lean into negative emotions in order to drive change, and I share a potentially-controversial Instagram post from Dan Koe.

14 AUG 2024 · If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer is back for Season 3! In this episode, I give a recap and opinion on recent NASCAR, Formula 1, and Olympics news. I dive into why I’m bummed that Hailie Deegan isn’t racing full-time anymore, Lewis Hamilton’s comeback, and why it felt so important for USA Women’s Basketball to take the Gold Medal in the Olympics. I also address the fact that we are a mixed-allegiance household, with me rooting for the USA and my husband Ben rooting for France, and what that drama is like. I also share the new cadence for Season 3 of a new episode every other Wednesday and give a sneak peak into the theme of Season 3 solo episodes, which is human performance.
