Aligned : The Unfiltered Podcast for Founders.

In this episode of Aligned, Adam Smith sits down with Pete (the man behind the editing desk of the podcast), for an unexpectedly deep conversation about work, identity and self-worth.

What begins as a discussion about feeling guilty during quieter work periods quickly uncovers something much bigger: the pressure many men place on themselves to constantly prove their value. Together, they explore fear of failure, childhood conditioning, self-deprecation, people-pleasing and the exhausting belief that productivity equals worth. Expect honest reflections, practical mindset shifts and a powerful reminder that being present is sometimes more valuable than “doing more”.
