How to Be a Better Human sponsors and ad reads

This episode is sponsored by Toyota. Expression shows up in ways we don't always notice. It's not just what we say, it's the choices we make, the things we surround ourselves with, the way we move through the world. Even something like the car you drive can be a form of expression. Toyota's new all-electric family leans into that idea. The CHR, for example, has a bold, distinctive design, something that stands out a little in a good way. While the BZ and the BZ Woodland each bring their own personality to the table, it's a reminder that the things we use every day don't have to be neutral. They can actually reflect who we are.

Not every sale happens at the register. Before AT&T Business Wireless, checking out customers on our mobile POS systems took too long. Basically a staring contest where everyone loses. It's crazy what people will say during an awkward silence. Now transactions are done before the silence takes hold. That means I can focus on the task at hand and make an extra sale or two. Sometimes I do miss the bonding time. Sometimes. AT&T Business Wireless. Connecting changes everything.

This episode is sponsored by Bombas. Summer is in full swing, and whether you're on the move or laying by the pool, Bombas make it easy to stay comfortable from head to toe. I am wearing their socks right now. Every single day, I put on a pair of Bombas socks, and I never, ever, ever regret doing that because their socks are amazing. They have soft and supportive socks for every kind of summer day, from compression socks built for travel and long days on your feet to sport-specific styles for golf, yoga, running, and more. And whichever pair you grab, you're getting everything you want in a sock: breathable, moisture-wicking, and designed to help prevent blisters. And when it's time to slow down, Bombas sandals and slides bring that same comfort with lightweight, cushy, waterproof EVA foam that'll make you feel like you're walking on a cloud. And here's my favorite part. For every item you buy, Bombas donates one to someone in need. That's more than 200 million donations and counting.

This episode is sponsored by Skylight. The transition from summer vacation to the school year can be a busy one. Between classroom schedules, sports practices, and appointments, it makes all the difference when the whole family's on the same page. Skylight Calendar gets that.

With Skylight, my kids can keep me in the loop without me having to be a human hoverboard. Families are better when they're working together.

This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Personal growth isn't just about learning new ideas. It's also about having the right support while you put those ideas into practice. And that's why you've heard me talk about therapy on the show. For me, having a therapist has been transformational. And I know that finding an in-person therapist like mine can be really hard for people. It can be expensive. Maybe you can't find someone who has availability or who specializes in what you need to work on. And that's why I think BetterHelp could be a great option for many people. It's the world's largest online therapy platform. They have a network of over 30,000 therapists, all fully licensed in the U.S. and held to a strict code of conduct. And each therapist has at least three years and 100 hours of hands-on experience, plus the required education, training, and certifications across a range of mental health specialties. Getting started on BetterHelp is easy. You answer a few questions, they match you with a therapist based on your needs, and you can switch therapists at any time if it's not the right fit. If you want to find out what real people, real customers of BetterHelp are saying, you can go to betterhelp.com slash reviews for real feedback. It's updated every day and you can see the reviews, see what stands out and see if BetterHelp is right for you. Visit betterhelp.com slash.

This episode is sponsored by Toyota. There's something powerful about momentum, that feeling when things are moving forward, when you're not stuck, you're not waiting, you're just going. That's true in life, and it's true in how we move through the world. Toyota's new all-electric vehicles are built to support that kind of momentum, whether it's the quick acceleration of the CHR, the versatility of the BZ, or the capability of the BZ Woodland. And with access to a growing network of chargers, including Tesla superchargers, it's designed to keep you moving, not slowing you down. Because capability isn't just about power, it's about removing friction. Learn more at Toyota.com, the new all-electric family. Toyota, let's go places.
