His message is direct: the biggest barrier to a meaningful life is the relationship you have with yourself. Each episode is listed below in order, with a short summary.

McKernan argues that the biggest barrier to a meaningful life is the quality of the relationship you have with yourself. Many people, he says, use success, money and work as a way to avoid listening to their intuition.
Speaking in 2015, he said we live in a culture dominated by the mind. He wants people to ask not what they think about money, work and relationships, but how those things make them feel, and what story sits behind those feelings.
A question he returns to is who you are trying to impress. He suggests checking whether your goals are valuable in themselves or a way of proving a point to someone else.
In 2019 he described One Last Talk, a speaking series in which people say what they would say if it were their final chance to address the world. He believes speaking your truth out loud, often for the first time, helps people move past what holds them back.

One Last Talk is a speaking series created by Philip McKernan in which people deliver the talk they would give if it were their last. It led to his book One Last Talk: Why Your Truth Matters And How To Deliver It, which he discussed with Brian Rose in 2019.
He uses soulset to describe living from your feelings and intuition rather than only your thinking mind. In his 2015 interview he contrasts it with mindset, which he says can keep people busy avoiding what they really feel.
