About this podcast
My name is Justin Castelli, and my purpose is to help you master the art of living your authentic life. On LifeDesign+ (previously called On Our PRST), I will help you connect your spirit, mind, body, and money as you pursue your authentic life through conversations with individuals who have followed their passions to live their authentic lives, subject matter experts on relevant topics, and "book report" episodes discussing books that will help you find and maintain your personal alignment. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The LifeDesign+ Podcast Manifesto As podcasts continue to move towards being highly focused on downloads, subscribers, and other quantitative metrics many shows are chasing the same high-profile guests and these high-profile guests will only appear on podcasts with a certain number of subscribers or downloads, which I understand. However, this leaves us with the same podcasts getting the same guests and listeners constantly hearing the same stories. LifeDesign+ will not play this game. Instead, LifeDesign+ will focus on bringing new voices to listeners. The size of the guest’s audience does not matter. The number of previous podcast appearances does not matter. The guest’s “fame” does not matter. What matters is the guest has an important message, is someone I genuinely want to talk with, and is someone I believe has the potential to be on those famous podcasts in the future. There are far too many brilliant people with important messages and stories to tell, but never get the chance to be heard because they aren’t “big” enough—the size of someone’s audience or level of popularity is not necessarily a reflection of the value of their message; in fact, sometimes its the “unknown” that has the message that is needed because it hasn’t been heard yet. There is a list of high-profile guests for whom an exception will be made for because I am a huge fan of them and if I should ever have the chance to talk with them, I will not pass that opportunity up. List of exceptions: Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Rick Rubin, Russ, Rich Roll, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Steph Curry, Oprah, Rihanna, Ryan Holiday, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z, Eckhart Tolle, Mark Wahlberg, Cole Bennett, Jessica Alba, Jimmy Iovine, and Dr. Dre. ** I reserve the right to add to this list at any time I’m excited to spend more time finding fresh new voices to bring to everyone looking to master the art of living their authentic life. Keep Pursuing, JC
