1335 | The Discipline of Fullness

Behavior Gap Radio

In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl introduces a new framework he’s been exploring for decades: the discipline of fullness. Inspired by natural lifestyle advocate Tony Riddle’s audacious barefoot running project, Carl unpacks how living a full, intentional life isn’t about white-knuckled discipline or deprivation. Instead, it’s about filling your days with nourishing commitments—family, rest, meaningful work, movement—so there’s no space left for distractions. Tune in as Carl shares stories, analogies, and experiments to consider what it means to let fullness, not scarcity, shape your life.
