    <title>Becoming Uncommon</title>
    <generator>Transistor (https://transistor.fm)</generator>
    <itunes:new-feed-url>https://feeds.transistor.fm/becoming-uncommon</itunes:new-feed-url>
    <description>Become Uncommon is a self-development podcast for people who are done collecting advice and ready to raise their floor.

Host Chris Ellis-Cooper skips the vision boards and guru tax. Each episode digs into what actually compounds: systems that work when motivation disappears, focus that isn’t theater, boundaries that protect your energy, and rest treated as strategy, not surrender.

No incense. No hustle-porn. Just clearer thinking and practices you can use this week.</description>
