			<description><![CDATA[<p>Nobody taught me how to be vulnerable.</p><br><p>Not my parents. Not my teachers. Not the culture I grew up in — where masculinity and emotional openness didn't exactly go hand in hand. I spent years performing a version of myself that looked together, while underneath I was really afraid to be real.</p><br><p>I wish someone had handed me a step-by-step guide. I wish someone had sat me down and said: here's why you're hiding, here's what it's costing you, and here's exactly how to build your way out of it.</p><p>Nobody did. So I built it myself — slowly, painfully, over years of expanding my capacity to be seen.</p><br><p>This episode is the guide I wish I'd had. It's for the younger version of me who needed it. And it's for anyone who wants to build the skill of feeling powerful in your vulnerability.</p><br><p><br></p><h2>What You'll Discover:</h2><p><br></p><ol><li><strong>Why not being vulnerable is costing you more than you think</strong> — in your relationships, your money, your health, your sense of self.</li><li><strong>Why the fear of being seen makes complete sense</strong> — it's not weakness. It's a protection mechanism built by a younger version of you. Understanding that changes everything.</li><li><strong>Why self-practice alone has a ceiling</strong> — journaling and breathwork are essential. But the nervous system heals in relationships. You need real practice with real people.</li><li><strong>How to set the right container</strong> — bringing your truth to the wrong person perpetuates pain. The skill includes knowing how to set the stage before you open the door.</li><li><strong>The difference between vulnerability and projection</strong> — one creates intimacy. The other creates damage. Here's exactly where that line is.</li><li><strong>What masculinity and vulnerability actually have to do with each other</strong> — and how redefining that changed everything for me.</li><li><strong>What it feels like on the other side</strong> — nothing to hide. The same person in every room. Relationships so full of truth you stop performing entirely.</li></ol><p><br></p><h2>The Biggest Takeaway:</h2><p><br></p><p>You're going to walk away from this episode with a real, practiced framework for letting yourself be seen — without the fear of rejection swallowing you whole.</p><br><p>You're going to understand why you've been hiding. You're going to have compassion for it. And you're going to have a clear, honest path for what to do next.</p><br><p>The more vulnerable you allow yourself to be, the more magnetic your life becomes. The more people show up. The more intimacy, support, and magic finds its way in.</p><br><p>This is the skill that changes everything. And by the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to build it.</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Love is a resource. Love is a technology. Love is the most advanced, most powerful, most renewable operating system available to every human being alive right now — more potent than ambition, more durable than discipline, more generative than anything the achievement machine has ever produced.</p><br><p>Mike Clark has spent the last year living this as a laboratory. And what he's discovered — through co-creating Love Camp with polar explorer Colin O'Brady, through creating WRLD School for children, through parenting, through marriage, through his own relentless embodiment practice — is something that will quietly rearrange the way you see everything you're creating.</p><br><p>This is one of the most expansive, grounded, and genuinely inspiring conversations to ever come through this podcast. By the end of it, you won't just believe that love is a fuel. You'll remember it. You'll feel it moving through you.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Nobody warns you about this part.</p><br><p>The proposal happens. The ring goes on. Everyone celebrates. And then somewhere in the quiet — maybe that night, maybe a week later — something unexpected surfaces. A fear. A doubt. A version of yourself you thought you'd already healed.</p><br><p>And you wonder if it means something is wrong.</p><br><p>It doesn't.</p><br><p>In this episode, Raj and @thenatalieadele get radically honest about what engagement actually initiates — the fears that followed the yes, the shadows that surfaced inside a safe container, and the months of real conversation that happened before anyone got down on one knee. This isn't the highlight reel. This is the truth about what deep commitment does to the psyche, and why the pieces that come up aren't signs you're with the wrong person. They're signs you're finally safe enough to go deeper.</p><br><p>If you've ever felt confused, scared, or less than certain during what's supposed to be the happiest time of your life — this episode was made for you.</p><p><br></p><h2>8 Things You'll Discover in This Episode:</h2><p><br></p><ol><li><strong>Why doubt after an engagement doesn't mean you're with the wrong person</strong> — and what it actually means when fears surface the moment you say yes to deeper commitment.</li><li><strong>What happened in the months of conversation before the proposal</strong> — how slowing down and widening the moment instead of rushing through it changed everything about the yes when it finally came.</li><li><strong>Why a safe relationship doesn't suppress what's unresolved — it surfaces it</strong> — and how to tell the difference between integration coming up and incompatibility showing up.</li><li><strong>The fantasy of the perfect engagement and why it's quietly hurting people</strong> — what it costs us when we only show the roses and never normalize the real initiation underneath.</li><li><strong>What "the initiation of engagement" actually looks like from the inside</strong> — the patterns, the rebounds, the old wounds that don't disappear when the ring appears.</li><li><strong>Why being truly seen by your partner is the most disorienting and healing thing that can happen to you</strong> — and how Raj and Natalie navigated the vulnerability of that together.</li><li><strong>The difference between fear that's asking you to leave and fear that's asking you to grow</strong> — and how to develop the discernment to know which one is speaking.</li><li><strong>Why the depth of your doubt is often proportional to the depth of your love</strong> — and how patience and integration, not perfection, are what real commitment requires.</li></ol><h2><br></h2><p>The engagement glow is real. So is everything that follows it.</p><br><p>When you choose someone fully — not as a fantasy, but as a real human container for your growth — every unintegrated part of you will eventually show up to be witnessed. That's not a warning sign. That's the work. That's the initiation.</p><br><p>Raj and Natalie didn't rush through the uncomfortable parts. They stayed present with them.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>What if every heartbreak, every failure, every person who showed up and walked away — was actually pointing you toward your purpose?</strong></p><br><p>Most of us move through life reacting to what happens — calling it bad luck, calling it unfair, calling it "just the way things are." But what if you zoomed out far enough to see the pattern? The same type of relationship that keeps showing up. The same wall you keep hitting at work. The same feeling that follows you no matter how much you try to outrun it.</p><br><p>What if none of it was random — and all of it was trying to teach you something?</p><br><p>In this episode, Raj introduces a simple but powerful idea: your life has a purpose, and that purpose is hidden inside the very experiences you wish never happened. He breaks it down into two layers — the lessons you're here to heal from and the life you're here to step into — and explains why most people stay stuck in the first layer without ever realizing there's a second one waiting for them.</p><br><p><strong>What You'll Discover:</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>Why the same painful patterns keep repeating in your life — and what they're actually trying to show you about your deeper purpose</li><li>The difference between the wounds you're here to heal and the life you're here to build — and why understanding both is the key to finally moving forward</li><li>Why "just the way I am" is the most expensive belief you'll ever carry — and the mindset shift that puts your life back in your hands</li><li>The moment Raj realized that pain is inevitable but suffering is a choice — and the simple distinction that changed everything</li><li>How to use your past as a map — a reflection practice that helps you connect the dots and see the deeper intelligence behind what you've been through</li><li>Why trusting yourself enough to try something new — even without a guarantee — is the real work most personal growth skips over</li><li>The reason your life might feel like it's falling apart right now — and why that breakdown could be the setup for the version of you that's trying to emerge</li><li>How to stop waiting for permission, clarity, or the "right time" and start walking toward the life that's been calling you all along</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you've ever felt like there has to be more to life than what you're experiencing — like there's a reason behind the struggle that you just can't see yet — this episode will help you see it.

He breaks it down into two layers — the lessons you're here to heal from and the life you're here to step into — and explains why most people stay stuck in the first layer without ever realizing there's a second one waiting for them.</p><br><p><strong>What You'll Discover:</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>Why the same painful patterns keep repeating in your life — and what they're actually trying to show you about your deeper purpose</li><li>The difference between the wounds you're here to heal and the life you're here to build — and why understanding both is the key to finally moving forward</li><li>Why "just the way I am" is the most expensive belief you'll ever carry — and the mindset shift that puts your life back in your hands</li><li>The moment Raj realized that pain is inevitable but suffering is a choice — and the simple distinction that changed everything</li><li>How to use your past as a map — a reflection practice that helps you connect the dots and see the deeper intelligence behind what you've been through</li><li>Why trusting yourself enough to try something new — even without a guarantee — is the real work most personal growth skips over</li><li>The reason your life might feel like it's falling apart right now — and why that breakdown could be the setup for the version of you that's trying to emerge</li><li>How to stop waiting for permission, clarity, or the "right time" and start walking toward the life that's been calling you all along</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you've ever felt like there has to be more to life than what you're experiencing — like there's a reason behind the struggle that you just can't see yet — this episode will help you see it. Press play and start connecting the dots.</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Liber8: <a href="http://www.liber8.health/program" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.liber8.health/program</a></p><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>What if the moments you most want to escape are the exact moments that are rewiring you?</strong></p><br><p>Most of us were taught to fix, push through, or numb the hard stuff. When conflict hits a relationship, when a business deal falls apart, when fear grips your chest — we run. We reach for the phone, the distraction, the solution. But what if the single most transformative thing you could do in those moments is the one thing nobody taught you: just <em>be</em> in it?</p><br><p>In this raw and deeply personal monthly reflection, Raj sits down with his close friend Nasya Miller in Nosara, Costa Rica to unpack a month that included getting engaged, navigating business pivots, sitting in emotional turbulence with his partner, and discovering a weekly practice that changed the way he digests life. This isn't theory — it's wisdom from the trenches of building a business, deepening love, and learning how to die well so you can actually live.</p><br><p><strong>What You'll Discover:</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>Why a neuroscientist says the moment you're most triggered is the exact moment you're most neuroplastic — and how to use that to rewire yourself in real time</li><li>The ancient weekly practice that gave Raj a rhythm of rest and reflection he didn't know he was missing — and how it accelerated his integration</li><li>What it felt like to close "a thousand timelines" by getting on one knee — and why that single choice rearranged everything</li><li>The difference between <em>knowing</em> something is a gift and actually <em>feeling</em> it as one — and what shifts when that gap finally closes</li><li>Why your triggers aren't your partner's fault, and the specific reframe that moves you from blame to liberation in seconds</li><li>How to access the intuitive guidance of your future self — the father, the leader, the 86-year-old version of you who's already been through this</li><li>The surprising question a mentor gave Raj that reoriented his entire relationship with uncertainty: <em>"What miracles are about to arrive in my life today?"</em></li><li>Why getting better at "dying" — letting old identities, plans, and beliefs dissolve — is the single most important skill for anyone navigating change</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you're in a season of uncertainty, transition, or emotional intensity and you're wondering how to stay rooted in playfulness, hope, and trust while everything shifts around you — this episode is your permission slip to stop fixing and start feeling.

Listen now and begin the journey home to yourself.</p><p>—-</p><p><strong>Ready to go deeper?</strong> If you're ready to break this pattern at its root and create lasting change in how you show up in relationships, join me for my free masterclass <strong>"Liberate Love: How To Create Unshakeable Inner Safety &amp; Feel Secure In Love &amp; Relationships"</strong> on Wednesday, January 22nd at 6 PM CT.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>What if the thing you've been running from your entire life is the exact doorway to your freedom?</p><br><p>Dr. Zach Bush is a triple board-certified physician who spent 17 years in academic medicine—running ICUs, bone marrow transplant units, and managing end-stage disease—before discovering that the root of nearly all illness traces back to one thing: stuck emotions. His work now bridges ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science, revealing how we've turned natural feelings into toxic emotional constructs that can't metabolize through our systems.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, you'll discover:</strong></p><br><p>→ The profound difference between feelings and emotions—and why one heals while the other gets stuck</p><p>→ Why emotions are the "high fructose corn syrup" of feelings and what that means for your body</p><p>→ What unconditional love actually feels like (hint: it's not the warm fuzzy sensation you think)</p><p>→ How the victim-perpetrator cycle keeps you trapped—and the one shift that breaks you free</p><p>→ Why nature has no purpose—and what that means for your obsession with finding yours</p><p>→ The reason your grief, heartbreak, and pain aren't problems to solve but waves to ride</p><p>→ How to move from "life is happening to me" to "life is happening as me"</p><p>→ The one regenerative act that opens the floodgates for nature to restore everything</p><br><p>You are not broken for feeling everything so deeply.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>What if the thing you've been running from your entire life is the exact doorway to your freedom?</p><br><p>Dr. Zach Bush is a triple board-certified physician who spent 17 years in academic medicine—running ICUs, bone marrow transplant units, and managing end-stage disease—before discovering that the root of nearly all illness traces back to one thing: stuck emotions. His work now bridges ancient wisdom with cutting-edge science, revealing how we've turned natural feelings into toxic emotional constructs that can't metabolize through our systems.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, you'll discover:</strong></p><br><p>→ The profound difference between feelings and emotions—and why one heals while the other gets stuck</p><p>→ Why emotions are the "high fructose corn syrup" of feelings and what that means for your body</p><p>→ What unconditional love actually feels like (hint: it's not the warm fuzzy sensation you think)</p><p>→ How the victim-perpetrator cycle keeps you trapped—and the one shift that breaks you free</p><p>→ Why nature has no purpose—and what that means for your obsession with finding yours</p><p>→ The reason your grief, heartbreak, and pain aren't problems to solve but waves to ride</p><p>→ How to move from "life is happening to me" to "life is happening as me"</p><p>→ The one regenerative act that opens the floodgates for nature to restore everything</p><br><p>You are not broken for feeling everything so deeply. You are an infinite soul in a finite body, which means you signed up for constant loss—and constant falling in love. The sunsets. The people. The moments. To be alive is to grieve and marvel in equal measure. And the courage to feel—fully, without resistance—is the medicine this world needs most.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>You've done the work. You've built the career, gone to therapy, read the books. So why does love still feel like the one area where your brilliance doesn't translate?</p><br><p>Annie Lalla is a relationship cartographer with an Honors Science Degree in Biology and Philosophy, a minor in Buddhism, and professional certifications in Coaching, NLP, and Clinical Hypnotherapy. Her work weaves evolutionary psychology, integral theory, intergenerational family systems, and therapeutic sexuality into a framework that actually works. She helps singles done with dating find their person—and couples in love resolve the conflicts that keep them stuck. Her mission: help you build a relationship that's a trampoline for your dreams and a sanctuary for your heart.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, you'll discover:</strong></p><br><p>→ Why women are actually the visionary leaders of relationships—and what happens when they wait to be rescued instead</p><p>→ The reason your partner triggers you so intensely (hint: you've time-traveled back to childhood)</p><p>→ How to know if overwhelming emotions are actually yours—or inherited pain you've been carrying for someone else</p><p>→ The simple practice that releases feelings that aren't yours back to their rightful owner</p><p>→ Why conflict is actually a collaboration trying to happen—and how to use it to strengthen your bond</p><p>→ The "WTF to MLK" method that transforms criticism into an invitation your partner can't refuse</p><p>→ What your partner is really doing when they challenge you (think Michelangelo carving David)</p><p>→ The one question that reveals whether a relationship is worth the growth it demands</p><br><p>Here's the truth: The love you're looking for exists. But it won't come from rescue. It won't come from finding someone who finally "gets it" so you don't have to feel your feelings anymore. True love is the emotional CrossFit of human existence—and it's rare because most people are chasing happily ever after instead of alive ever after. The fantasy says love should be easy. The truth says love is the highest game you can play as a human being.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>What if the reason you can't speak your truth isn't suppression at all—but complete disconnection from what your truth even is?</p><br><p>In this intimate conversation, Raj sits down with his beloved Natalie Adele to explore why so many of us (especially women) have lost access to their authentic voice. It's not that you're choosing to stay silent. It's that you've been severed from the body, the heart, and the stillness where truth actually lives. This is your guide to finding your way back.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, you'll discover:</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why suppression isn't the real problem—and what disconnection has to do with your silence</li><li>The surprising place where feminine truth actually lives (hint: it's not your mind)</li><li>What we're really afraid of when we fear being seen—and why confidence dissolves that fear</li><li>How childhood micro-moments slowly dialed down your life force without you realizing</li><li>The difference between being seen and being truly known</li><li>Why "sorry" and "sorrow" share the same root—and what that reveals about your energy</li><li>The practice of "dropping anchor" that rebuilds trust with yourself</li><li>How reclaiming your voice transforms the way men respond to you</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Your voice was never lost. It's waiting to be reclaimed.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>What if the reason you can't speak your truth isn't suppression at all—but complete disconnection from what your truth even is?</p><br><p>In this intimate conversation, Raj sits down with his beloved Natalie Adele to explore why so many of us (especially women) have lost access to their authentic voice. It's not that you're choosing to stay silent. It's that you've been severed from the body, the heart, and the stillness where truth actually lives. This is your guide to finding your way back.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, you'll discover:</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why suppression isn't the real problem—and what disconnection has to do with your silence</li><li>The surprising place where feminine truth actually lives (hint: it's not your mind)</li><li>What we're really afraid of when we fear being seen—and why confidence dissolves that fear</li><li>How childhood micro-moments slowly dialed down your life force without you realizing</li><li>The difference between being seen and being truly known</li><li>Why "sorry" and "sorrow" share the same root—and what that reveals about your energy</li><li>The practice of "dropping anchor" that rebuilds trust with yourself</li><li>How reclaiming your voice transforms the way men respond to you</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Your voice was never lost. It's waiting to be reclaimed. The truth you've been afraid to speak, the emotions you've been afraid to feel, the version of yourself you've been afraid to reveal—they're all still there.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Underneath the noise.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>What if 40% of the patients walking into doctor's offices have real, debilitating symptoms—but nothing physically wrong with their bodies?</p><br><p>Dr. David Clarke has spent decades proving this isn't "all in your head." It's in your brain—and it's changeable. After treating over 7,000 patients with mysterious chronic conditions, earning Doctor of the Year honors, and authoring the groundbreaking book <em>They Can't Find Anything Wrong</em>, Dr. Clarke has become one of the leading voices in stress illness recovery. His work reveals why gold-standard research centers are now showing remarkable outcomes for conditions that baffled medicine for generations.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, you'll discover:</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why your chronic symptoms might be a form of communication from your mind</li><li>The surprising childhood patterns that predict adult illness decades later</li><li>How one woman's 60 hospitalizations ended when she identified a single trigger</li><li>The "butterfly on the wall" exercise that unlocks buried emotional truth</li><li>Why writing a letter you never send can eliminate years of physical pain</li><li>The personality traits that make mentally strong people more vulnerable to stress illness</li><li>How the brain physically changes when emotional wounds are finally addressed</li><li>The missing self-care skill that prevents full recovery</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you've been suffering for months, years, or even decades with symptoms that doctors can't explain... if you've been told "there's nothing wrong" while your body screams otherwise... this episode is your permission slip to believe what you've always sensed: <strong>your pain is real, AND there's a way out.</strong></p><br><p>Dr. Clarke's patients have recovered from 55 years of abdominal pain. From decades of unexplained symptoms. From conditions so severe they required hospitalization and round-the-clock morphine. Not through more tests or medications—but by finally understanding what their bodies were trying to say.</p><br><p>The most powerful truth in this conversation? You're not broken. You're not weak. You're actually <em>stronger</em> than average—you've just been carrying weight no one should have to carry alone. And once you learn to set that weight down, you don't just lose the pain. You gain the life you were always meant to live.</p><br><p>🎧 <strong>Listen now—because the body that's been speaking to you in symptoms is waiting to speak to you in healing.</strong></p><br><p>Connect with Dr Dave:</p><br><p>Website: <a href="https://www.symptomatic.me/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.symptomatic.me/</a></p><p>Books: <strong>They Can't Find Anything Wrong</strong> and <strong>Psychophysiologic Disorders</strong></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Dr. Amy Albright</strong> is a Doctor of Chinese Medicine and clairvoyant healer with 23 years of experience reading and transforming the human energy field. She's the co-founder of Holon, where she partners with leading neuroscientists to deliver intensive neurological transformation retreats that produce EEG-verified brain changes in just four days.</p><br><p>But here's what makes Amy different: she doesn't believe in processing trauma.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Meet Traver Boehm: Founder of the UNcivilized men's movement, former bodyguard to billionaires, TEDx speaker, and licensed acupuncturist who has spent 77 cumulative days in complete darkness retreats. After hitting rock bottom following divorce and business loss, Traver transformed his pain into purpose - spending 28 days in pitch-black isolation that fundamentally changed his relationship with death and masculinity. Now, after completing an unprecedented 49-day darkness sit, his new book "28 Days in Darkness" chronicles these profound journeys into the depths of the human psyche.</p><br><p><strong>What You'll Discover:</strong></p><ul><li>Why complete darkness strips away every coping mechanism you rely on daily</li><li>How Traver's mind "broke" around day 9 - and why this was necessary medicine</li><li>The difference between 3-day, 28-day, and 49-day darkness experiences</li><li>What pre-verbal trauma looks like when it surfaces after 6 weeks of isolation</li><li>Why grief became Traver's greatest teacher (and how to surrender to it)</li><li>The moment he thought he had died - and what death actually felt like</li><li>Essential skills needed before attempting any darkness retreat</li><li>How to create intimacy with yourself in just 20 minutes weekly</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Traver's journey from rock bottom to spiritual breakthrough reveals that our deepest healing often requires venturing into territories our minds desperately want to avoid. His unflinching honesty about the physical and psychological challenges - from hallucinations to pre-verbal trauma surfacing after weeks of isolation - offers both a sobering reality check and profound inspiration. This conversation will challenge your assumptions about what it means to truly know yourself and why the path to freedom might require temporary surrender of everything you think you control.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Most of us chase healing through endless tools and practices—yet remain stuck and unfulfilled. What if the most powerful healing isn't something you add to your life, but something you align with?</p><br><p>In this episode, Raj shares his journey to discovering "the frequency of alignment"—where safety and aliveness intersect to create a life with wind behind your sails. No amount of meditation can bring you back to center if you're living misaligned. But when you track your unique signal and design rituals around it, everything changes.</p><p><br></p><h2>What You'll Discover:</h2><h2><br></h2><p><strong>🔍 Why do most people confuse chaos with aliveness?</strong> The fundamental difference between frenetic energy and true vitality.</p><br><p><strong>🧭 What does your personal "safety signal" feel like?</strong> Specific qualities that indicate optimal state versus survival mode.</p><br><p><strong>⚡ How can you create courage by building safety first?</strong> The counterintuitive approach to bravery without forcing through fear.</p><br><p><strong>📡 What is "signal tracking" versus traditional reflection?</strong> Why focusing on feeling states is more powerful than analyzing actions.</p><br><p><strong>🌪️ Why does life fall apart when you start aligning?</strong> Why relationships shift and chaos emerges—and why this is perfect.</p><br><p><strong>🎯 How do you distinguish true alignment from avoiding discomfort?</strong> Learn the difference between authenticity and spiritual bypassing.</p><br><p><strong>☕ What role do physical rituals play in anchoring insights?</strong> How Raj uses ceremonial tea to embody principles and set daily frequency.</p><br><p><strong>🚀 How do you know when to wait versus take aligned action?</strong> Understanding when to push forward versus trust the process.</p><br><p><strong>Are you ready to stop pushing the boulder uphill and design rituals that keep you in the frequency where life flows through you? </strong>When you prioritize your wellbeing and choose yourself, you don't just heal—you become a gift to everyone around you. <strong>Listen to discover your unique alignment frequency and learn to protect it like your life depends on it.&nbsp;</strong></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>Most of us chase healing through endless tools and practices—yet remain stuck and unfulfilled. What if the most powerful healing isn't something you add to your life, but something you align with?</p><br><p>In this episode, Raj shares his journey to discovering "the frequency of alignment"—where safety and aliveness intersect to create a life with wind behind your sails. No amount of meditation can bring you back to center if you're living misaligned. But when you track your unique signal and design rituals around it, everything changes.</p><p><br></p><h2>What You'll Discover:</h2><h2><br></h2><p><strong>🔍 Why do most people confuse chaos with aliveness?</strong> The fundamental difference between frenetic energy and true vitality.</p><br><p><strong>🧭 What does your personal "safety signal" feel like?</strong> Specific qualities that indicate optimal state versus survival mode.</p><br><p><strong>⚡ How can you create courage by building safety first?</strong> The counterintuitive approach to bravery without forcing through fear.</p><br><p><strong>📡 What is "signal tracking" versus traditional reflection?</strong> Why focusing on feeling states is more powerful than analyzing actions.</p><br><p><strong>🌪️ Why does life fall apart when you start aligning?</strong> Why relationships shift and chaos emerges—and why this is perfect.</p><br><p><strong>🎯 How do you distinguish true alignment from avoiding discomfort?</strong> Learn the difference between authenticity and spiritual bypassing.</p><br><p><strong>☕ What role do physical rituals play in anchoring insights?</strong> How Raj uses ceremonial tea to embody principles and set daily frequency.</p><br><p><strong>🚀 How do you know when to wait versus take aligned action?</strong> Understanding when to push forward versus trust the process.</p><br><p><strong>Are you ready to stop pushing the boulder uphill and design rituals that keep you in the frequency where life flows through you? </strong>When you prioritize your wellbeing and choose yourself, you don't just heal—you become a gift to everyone around you. <strong>Listen to discover your unique alignment frequency and learn to protect it like your life depends on it.&nbsp;</strong></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Alexa Rosenthal is the co-founder of Eco University, where she built a multi-million dollar herbalism program after receiving guidance from plant medicine to "make plants sexy again." But behind her entrepreneurial success was a 20-year journey with antidepressants that began at age 16. After seven failed attempts to get off SSRIs, Alexa finally found a path to freedom through sacred witnessing, grief work, and learning to trust her body's natural capacity to feel. Now eight months medication-free, she's courageously sharing the raw reality of what worked—and what didn't—in her healing journey.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In a world increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence, we're forgetting the most sophisticated intelligence system ever created—the one inside your own body. While AI processes information, ancient intelligence processes life itself: healing wounds, creating connection, and generating the aliveness that makes existence meaningful. But here's the problem: most of us have been systematically disconnected from this intelligence since childhood, leaving us numb, anxious, and searching for answers outside ourselves.</p><p>Steven Jaggers is the founder of Somatic Breath Work and a pioneer in the nervous system regulation movement.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>In a world increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence, we're forgetting the most sophisticated intelligence system ever created—the one inside your own body. While AI processes information, ancient intelligence processes life itself: healing wounds, creating connection, and generating the aliveness that makes existence meaningful. But here's the problem: most of us have been systematically disconnected from this intelligence since childhood, leaving us numb, anxious, and searching for answers outside ourselves.</p><p>Steven Jaggers is the founder of Somatic Breath Work and a pioneer in the nervous system regulation movement.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>What if everything you've been taught about consciousness is backwards? In this mind-expanding conversation, Raj sits down with Mark Gober—Princeton graduate, former Silicon Valley strategy partner, and author of seven groundbreaking books—who went from hardcore materialist to consciousness researcher after discovering peer-reviewed scientific evidence that completely shattered his worldview.

If you've ever felt like reality is more mysterious than we're taught, or if you've had experiences that don't fit the mainstream worldview, this episode will give you both the permission and the scientific foundation to trust what you already know deep down.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>What if the most transformational thing you could do for your relationship was to consciously end it? In this raw and revelatory conversation, Raj and his beloved Natalie share their unconventional journey of falling in love, consciously breaking up, and coming back into relationship—but this time, with the “intelligence of love” as their guide.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>What if the most painful moments of your life aren't random suffering, but sacred initiations designed to unlock deeper levels of spiritual maturity?

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In a world that prizes productivity and logic, most of us were never taught the fundamental skill of feeling our emotions. This emotional illiteracy creates a dangerous buildup of what Raj calls "emotional debt" — unprocessed feelings that manifest as stress, fractured relationships, and even physical illness. When we avoid our feelings, we're not just disconnecting from ourselves; we're paying compound interest on that emotional debt with our health and happiness. In this transformative episode, Raj and Alex unpack the art and science of feeling, revealing practical pathways to expand your emotional capacity and free yourself from fear. Learn how developing this overlooked skillset can become your superpower in an increasingly AI-driven world.</p><br><p><strong>What You'll Discover:</strong></p><br><p>• <strong>The hidden "emotional debt" concept</strong> — why every unfelt emotion gets stored in your body and how this accumulation affects everything from your health to your relationships</p><p>• <strong>Why safety is the foundation of feeling</strong> — practical techniques to create the internal and external conditions where authentic emotion can finally emerge</p><p>• <strong>The surprising truth about discomfort</strong> — how reframing your relationship with uncomfortable sensations transforms them from enemies to allies</p><p>• <strong>Why slowing down is revolutionary</strong> — discover the counterintuitive practice that creates space for healing in a speed-obsessed culture</p><p>• <strong>The ancestral connection</strong> — how feeling your emotions doesn't just liberate you but helps release generational patterns that have been passed down through your lineage</p><p>• <strong>The vulnerability paradox</strong> — why opening yourself creates ripples of healing that extend far beyond your personal experience</p><p>• <strong>The difference between emotions and sensations</strong> — a critical distinction that can instantly change how you process difficult feelings</p><p>• <strong>The presence practice</strong> — specific techniques to develop the quality that makes you "medicine" for others, creating healing spaces wherever you go</p><br><p>Ready to break free from emotional numbness and discover the profound liberation that comes with feeling fully?

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this deeply intimate conversation, I sit down with Libby and Andy Drish, a couple who have mastered the delicate balance between devotion and freedom in their 15-year relationship. Starting young and admittedly anti-relationship, they've navigated through volatile beginnings to discover a level of harmony most couples never experience. What sets their journey apart is their extraordinary commitment to relationship mastery—they've dedicated years to studying with the world's most advanced relationship teachers, experimenting with cutting-edge frameworks, and developing their own maps for love's terrain. Their journey reveals how relationships evolve through distinct stages and how the thread of devotion can sustain you through the darkest moments when nothing else is working. Unlike most couples who rely on conventional wisdom, Andy and Libby have approached their relationship like relationship astronauts—venturing into uncharted territories, testing boundaries, and bringing back wisdom that few have access to.</p><br><p>What You'll Learn:</p><ul><li>The three stages of relationship evolution: codependence, independence, and interdependence</li><li>How to navigate "death portals" in your relationship where old dynamics must die for new ones to emerge</li><li>The Infinite Theory of Love - a powerful map for balancing freedom and safety</li><li>Why devotion feels like death in the darkest times but becomes the most exquisite experience in the lightest times</li><li>How to shift from exhausting stage two "processing" to the harmony and polarity of stage three</li><li>The difference between conditional romantic love and unconditional love</li><li>Why vulnerability and emotional expression are more effective than verbal negotiation</li><li>The immense power of their weekly "ritual" practice and how it can transform your relationship</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you've ever felt lost in your relationship, questioning whether the struggles are worth it, or longing for a deeper connection that seems just out of reach, this episode offers a rare glimpse into what's possible. Andy and Libby share battle-tested wisdom from their 15-year experiment, revealing maps and frameworks they wish they'd had during their hardest moments.

Their journey proves that with devotion as your North Star, you can create a relationship that continually evolves into something you wouldn't have believed possible.</p><p>Tools/resources mentioned here:</p><br><p>The Three Stages of Relationship- Inspired by David Deida</p><br><p>Connect with Libby and Andy:</p><p>Website: <a href="https://www.theartoflove.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.theartoflove.com/</a></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>This episode explores how to view your work, business, and creative projects through the lens of energy rather than conventional metrics. As I've grown in my spiritual journey, I've started to see everything as energy flows – when something isn't working between team members, I see stuck energy; when sales aren't flowing, there's likely a kink in the chain. In this conversation with Alex, we dive into how companies have souls born from the seed of an idea, how your consciousness gets embedded into every aspect of the business, and why aligning with "what wants to happen" rather than "what I want" can lead to quantum leaps in success.</p><br><p>What You'll Learn:</p><ul><li>How to connect with the soul of your company or creative project</li><li>Why your level of consciousness directly affects the flow of energy in your business</li><li>The profound difference between "what I want" versus "what wants to happen"</li><li>How to identify where energy is stuck in your organization and how to release it</li><li>The concept of "return on energy" as a more meaningful measure than return on investment</li><li>How to become an "energy billionaire" rather than just pursuing financial success</li><li>Practical ways to access intuitive leadership for better decision-making</li><li>How creating safety is the fundamental role of conscious leadership</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you're experiencing friction in your work, team dynamics, or sensing that your business isn't flowing as effortlessly as it could, this episode offers a completely different perspective on your challenges. I'm not sharing concepts from business books (there aren't any on this topic!) – this is what's actually working for me. When you realize you're not the owner of your creations but rather a conduit for what wants to flow through you, everything changes. You'll make decisions from greater alignment, attract unexpected opportunities, and experience the kind of expansion that happens when you get out of your own way.</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Burnout isn't just prevalent in today's culture—it's practically glorified. We've been conditioned to believe that pushing harder, running faster, and sacrificing more is the only path to success. But I've discovered there's a fundamental flaw in this approach: when we're fueled by fear, anxiety, or scarcity, we're drawing from a finite energy source that inevitably depletes us.</p><br><p>Over the years, I've experienced a profound shift in my relationship with work. Despite working more hours than ever before in my entrepreneurial ventures, I feel less burnout and more alignment than at any previous point in my career. The secret? I've learned to source my energy from love rather than fear.</p><br><p>When we operate from unconscious patterns and limiting beliefs inherited from culture, family, or religion, we're constantly fighting against ourselves. This creates tension in our system and eventually leads to exhaustion. But when we can align with a more authentic way of being that's in congruence with love, we tap into an infinite energy source that fuels creativity, connection, and inspiration.</p><br><p>In this episode, Alex and I dive deep into what it takes to make this pivotal shift from being pushed by fear to being pulled by love.</p><br><p>What you'll learn:</p><ul><li>The fundamental difference between being pushed by fear versus being pulled by love</li><li>How to identify when you're operating from unconscious patterns and fear-based belief systems</li><li>Practical techniques to shift your perspective when facing challenging tasks</li><li>Why traditional "hustle culture" leads to burnout and how to work intensely without depleting yourself</li><li>The role of surrender in accessing deeper sources of energy and inspiration</li><li>How to develop courage as a key ingredient for authentic living</li><li>Techniques for raising your standards by lowering your tolerance for what doesn't serve you</li><li>Why understanding your unique design and natural rhythms is crucial for sustainable success</li><li>The transformative power of gratitude in shifting from resentment to appreciation</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you're tired of feeling exhausted, if you're questioning whether the hustle is worth it, or if you're simply seeking a more sustainable way to pursue your passions—this episode is for you.</p><br><p>I've walked the path from burnout to alignment, and I know firsthand that it's possible to do meaningful, impactful work without sacrificing your wellbeing. The frameworks and tools shared in this conversation aren't just theoretical—they're the exact practices that have transformed my relationship with work and allowed me to access a deeper, more sustainable source of energy.</p><br><p>Your life is in direct proportion to what you tolerate. If you want a better life, just tolerate less. By choosing to source your energy from love rather than fear, you can break free from the burnout cycle and discover what it truly means to work in flow.</p><br><p>Join Alex and I as we explore how courage, surrender, and self-understanding can help you tap into an infinite source of inspiration that makes even challenging work feel energizing rather than draining.</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

But when we can align with a more authentic way of being that's in congruence with love, we tap into an infinite energy source that fuels creativity, connection, and inspiration.</p><br><p>In this episode, Alex and I dive deep into what it takes to make this pivotal shift from being pushed by fear to being pulled by love.</p><br><p>What you'll learn:</p><ul><li>The fundamental difference between being pushed by fear versus being pulled by love</li><li>How to identify when you're operating from unconscious patterns and fear-based belief systems</li><li>Practical techniques to shift your perspective when facing challenging tasks</li><li>Why traditional "hustle culture" leads to burnout and how to work intensely without depleting yourself</li><li>The role of surrender in accessing deeper sources of energy and inspiration</li><li>How to develop courage as a key ingredient for authentic living</li><li>Techniques for raising your standards by lowering your tolerance for what doesn't serve you</li><li>Why understanding your unique design and natural rhythms is crucial for sustainable success</li><li>The transformative power of gratitude in shifting from resentment to appreciation</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you're tired of feeling exhausted, if you're questioning whether the hustle is worth it, or if you're simply seeking a more sustainable way to pursue your passions—this episode is for you.</p><br><p>I've walked the path from burnout to alignment, and I know firsthand that it's possible to do meaningful, impactful work without sacrificing your wellbeing. The frameworks and tools shared in this conversation aren't just theoretical—they're the exact practices that have transformed my relationship with work and allowed me to access a deeper, more sustainable source of energy.</p><br><p>Your life is in direct proportion to what you tolerate. If you want a better life, just tolerate less. By choosing to source your energy from love rather than fear, you can break free from the burnout cycle and discover what it truly means to work in flow.</p><br><p>Join Alex and I as we explore how courage, surrender, and self-understanding can help you tap into an infinite source of inspiration that makes even challenging work feel energizing rather than draining.</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I'm beyond excited to share this powerful conversation with my brother Michael Clark - one of my dearest friends, advisors, mentors, and someone I truly love and look up to. He’s a spiritual seeker, successful entrepreneur, and philanthropist who has devoted himself to a life of service. In this conversation, we talk about the why behind the work. Why devote yourself to ego dissolution? Why devote yourself to being in a relationship with somebody who triggers you? Why devote yourself to this path of service? How to actually get there and build the muscle of service so that we can be a kinder, more loving species? We went in so many directions, covering everything from the purpose of life to how laughter can be more powerful than fear, especially when healing trauma.</p><br><p>What You'll Learn</p><ul><li>Why true service begins with knowing yourself deeply</li><li>How service is like a muscle that gets stronger with practice - "start small"</li><li>The power of recognizing heroes in everyday life and uplifting them</li><li>Why triggers and attractions are "treasure maps for your soul"</li><li>How to find joy and humor even in the healing of deep trauma</li><li>The paradox of surrender: how letting go often brings more abundance</li><li>Why helping just one person matters more than trying to "end homelessness"</li><li>How disconnection from self leads to disconnection from others and from the planet</li><li>The importance of listening to life's "whispers" before they become "yells"</li><li>Practical ways to incorporate service into daily life without burnout</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This episode reminds us that spiritual growth isn't just about contemplation but about active engagement with the world from a place of love. When we serve others without expectation, we often find that what we need comes back to us in unexpected ways. By letting go of outcomes and focusing on serving the present moment with kindness and an open heart, we align with something greater than ourselves and discover that we're taken care of in return. Join Raj and Michael as they explore how the inner work enables us to show up more fully in service to others, and how finding joy in the journey transforms both ourselves and those around us.</p><br><p>Connect with Mike:</p><p><a href="https://muse.io/clark" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://muse.io/clark</a></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Zach Bush brings a unique perspective to understanding human emotions and healing, drawing from his 17-year background in academic medicine running ICUs and bone marrow transplant units, combined with his deep study of Chinese medicine, energy healing, and nature's intelligence. After leaving conventional medicine in 2010, he established an integrated medical center where he absorbed extensive knowledge of Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture. His discovery that emotions are at the root of all diseases, backed by 5,000 years of Chinese medical science, led him to develop innovative approaches to emotional healing. Dr. Bush's current work with Project Biome involves studying nature's patterns and cycles, giving him unprecedented insights into how human emotional patterns mirror larger natural systems.</p><br><p>In this powerful episode, you'll learn:</p><ul><li>The crucial difference between emotions and feelings, and why this distinction matters for healing</li><li>How our addiction to emotional patterns keeps us stuck in victim-perpetrator cycles</li><li>Why nature has no purpose, and how this understanding can liberate us from emotional suffering</li><li>The role of beauty in experiencing unconditional love and breaking free from emotional patterns</li><li>How unprocessed grief and trauma manifest physically and can be released through feeling</li><li>Ways to move from intellectual understanding to embodied feeling</li><li>The importance of being witnessed in our authentic expression</li><li>How natural cycles of death and rebirth apply to emotional healing</li><li>Practical approaches to feeling more deeply and metabolizing emotions naturally</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Key Takeaway: Our addiction to processed emotions - much like processed foods - keeps us disconnected from the natural flow of feeling that exists in nature. By learning to distinguish between conditioned emotional patterns and raw, authentic feelings, we can break free from this addiction. The path forward isn't about managing or controlling emotions, but rather allowing ourselves to feel more deeply and completely, just as nature does. When we can embrace this natural way of being, our emotional struggles begin to metabolize and transform on their own, leading to genuine healing and liberation.</p><br><p>Join Liber8’s upcoming <a href="https://sso645.isrefer.com/go/PEH/raj/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Precision Emotional Healing group program</a> and be equipped with tools to break free from unhealthy patterns of emotional addiction.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Zach Bush brings a unique perspective to understanding human emotions and healing, drawing from his 17-year background in academic medicine running ICUs and bone marrow transplant units, combined with his deep study of Chinese medicine, energy healing, and nature's intelligence. After leaving conventional medicine in 2010, he established an integrated medical center where he absorbed extensive knowledge of Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture. His discovery that emotions are at the root of all diseases, backed by 5,000 years of Chinese medical science, led him to develop innovative approaches to emotional healing. Dr. Bush's current work with Project Biome involves studying nature's patterns and cycles, giving him unprecedented insights into how human emotional patterns mirror larger natural systems.</p><br><p>In this powerful episode, you'll learn:</p><ul><li>The crucial difference between emotions and feelings, and why this distinction matters for healing</li><li>How our addiction to emotional patterns keeps us stuck in victim-perpetrator cycles</li><li>Why nature has no purpose, and how this understanding can liberate us from emotional suffering</li><li>The role of beauty in experiencing unconditional love and breaking free from emotional patterns</li><li>How unprocessed grief and trauma manifest physically and can be released through feeling</li><li>Ways to move from intellectual understanding to embodied feeling</li><li>The importance of being witnessed in our authentic expression</li><li>How natural cycles of death and rebirth apply to emotional healing</li><li>Practical approaches to feeling more deeply and metabolizing emotions naturally</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Key Takeaway: Our addiction to processed emotions - much like processed foods - keeps us disconnected from the natural flow of feeling that exists in nature. By learning to distinguish between conditioned emotional patterns and raw, authentic feelings, we can break free from this addiction. The path forward isn't about managing or controlling emotions, but rather allowing ourselves to feel more deeply and completely, just as nature does. When we can embrace this natural way of being, our emotional struggles begin to metabolize and transform on their own, leading to genuine healing and liberation.</p><br><p>Join Liber8’s upcoming <a href="https://sso645.isrefer.com/go/PEH/raj/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Precision Emotional Healing group program</a> and be equipped with tools to break free from unhealthy patterns of emotional addiction.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of Stay Grounded, host Raj Jana and guest Alex explore the transformative power of understanding our emotional triggers. Rather than viewing triggers as obstacles to avoid, they discuss how these moments of emotional intensity can serve as gateways to profound self-discovery and personal growth. Through their own experiences and insights, they reveal how developing awareness around our triggers can become our greatest tool for emotional resilience and authentic living.</p><br><p>What You'll Discover:</p><p>- Why awareness is the most powerful medicine for emotional healing and how it automatically increases your resilience</p><p>- The surprising reason your triggers keep repeating and what this pattern is trying to tell you</p><p>- How stored emotions from your past create present-day reactions (and what to do about it)</p><p>- The three essential qualities needed to work with triggers effectively</p><p>- Why the goal isn't to eliminate triggers but to expand your capacity to experience life fully</p><p>- A fresh perspective on purpose and how it relates to your trigger responses</p><p>- The delicate balance between processing triggers and maintaining healthy relationships</p><p>- Why self-compassion is crucial when doing this inner work</p><p>- Practical steps for staying present when triggered instead of numbing or avoiding</p><p>- The revolutionary approach to mental health that starts with turning the mirror inward</p><br><p>Key Takeaway:</p><p>Mastering your emotional triggers isn't about eliminating them—it's about developing the awareness to transform them into opportunities for growth. When you learn to lean into these challenging moments with curiosity and compassion, each trigger becomes a treasure that reveals more of your authentic self and expands your capacity to live life fully. The path to emotional mastery begins not with fighting your triggers, but with understanding them as guideposts on your journey to personal liberation.</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this intimate conversation with Raj, serial entrepreneur Miki Agrawal shares profound insights from her experiences in a darkness retreat and her journey of personal transformation. Miki is an author of "Disrupt-Her," and a trailblazing innovator known for founding TUSHY, THINX, and Wild. Named "Fast Company's Most Creative People in Business" and "Young Global Leader" by the World Economic Forum, Miki shares her evolution from a hard-charging entrepreneur to an advocate of "soft power" leadership. Her latest venture, Hiro Technologies, exemplifies this approach by partnering with nature to solve the global plastic crisis through breakthrough fungi technology. Beyond her business accomplishments, she's a devoted mother, musician, and thought leader in the space of authentic leadership and emotional intelligence.</p><br><p>Key Topics and Takeaways:</p><ul><li>How five nights in complete darkness revealed the mechanics of our emotional patterns and thought loops</li><li>Why "soft power" might be the leadership paradigm our world desperately needs right now</li><li>The remarkable experience of watching yourself cry and finding joy in feeling everything</li><li>The difference between leadership and mastery (and why understanding this changes everything)</li><li>How prayer and gratitude can transform our relationship with uncertainty</li><li>Why moving at the "perfect pace" means something different than what most people think</li><li>The profound shift from being a leader on a pedestal to being a guide on the path</li><li>How vulnerability and power aren't opposites - they're partners in authentic leadership</li><li>The way our souls might have chosen this human experience specifically to feel it all</li><li>Why feeling insecure might be one of the most secure things we can do</li></ul><p>This conversation reminds us that true aliveness isn't found in avoiding the dark or chasing only the light - it's found in embracing every shade of the human experience. As Miki beautifully puts it, "I want to skid to death's door sideways, not in a well-preserved body, thoroughly used up, loudly proclaiming, wow, what a life!" The invitation is clear: what if instead of managing our emotions, we let them be our teachers? What if instead of fearing our vulnerability, we let it be our strength? This episode challenges us to embrace the full spectrum of being human, knowing that in this embrace, we find our most authentic power.</p><br><p>Connect with Miki:</p><p>Instagram: @mikiagrawal</p><p>Website: <a href="https://mikiagrawal.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://mikiagrawal.com/</a></p><p>Support Hiro Technology’s Crowdfund Campaign: <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hirotechnologies/hiro-experience-plastic-eating-fungi-at-home" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hirotechnologies/hiro-experience-plastic-eating-fungi-at-home</a></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this deeply reflective episode of Stay Grounded, Raj and Alex explore the delicate balance between taking action and letting go, diving into one of life's most challenging paradoxes: the art of releasing control. Through their personal experiences and insights, they examine how our relationship with control affects everything from our daily decisions to our spiritual growth, and why learning to surrender might be the key to feeling truly empowered in life.</p><br><p>Key Topics and Takeaways:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>The surprising relationship between tension and control, and what your body is trying to tell you when you feel that familiar grip</li><li>&nbsp;Why examining your attachments might be the most important spiritual practice you're not doing</li><li>&nbsp;The counterintuitive connection between safety and security, and which one actually leads to lasting peace</li><li>&nbsp;A profound perspective on "the subtle art of letting yourself die" that could transform how you handle life's challenges</li><li>The hidden reason why your triggers might be your greatest teachers</li><li>What nature can teach us about trust and surrender that no self-help book can</li><li>The unexpected way that soul curriculum plays into your relationship with control</li><li>A practical approach to turning your entire day into a prayer, even in the midst of chaos</li></ul><p><br></p><p>In a world that seems to demand more control and certainty than ever, this episode offers a refreshing and nuanced perspective on what it truly means to be grounded in trust rather than control. Whether you're navigating major life changes, dealing with uncertainty, or simply feeling the weight of trying to manage it all, Raj and Alex's conversation provides both practical wisdom and spiritual insights for anyone ready to explore a different way of being.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>As we wrap up 2024, this timeless conversation between Raj and Lindsay Sukornyk feels more relevant than ever. In a year marked by increasing social division and polarizing viewpoints, their discussion about unconditional love and acceptance offers crucial wisdom for navigating relationships with grace and understanding. Through their authentic dialogue, they explore how we can maintain genuine connections while honoring each person's unique journey.</p><br><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li>Understanding that everyone is on their own unique path and timeline of growth, especially vital in today's climate where social media often pressures us to conform to others' expectations or timelines.</li><li>Recognizing that our desire for others to change often stems from our own unhealed wounds or unmet needs - a powerful reminder as we navigate increasingly complex personal and social dynamics in 2024.</li><li>Cultivating the ability to hold space for others with compassion and understanding, even when their actions or beliefs trigger us - particularly relevant in our current era of heightened social and political tensions.</li><li>Practicing radical acceptance and learning to find the beauty and perfection in each person's journey, trusting that they are exactly where they need to be - an essential skill for maintaining relationships in our increasingly diverse and interconnected world.</li><li>Letting go of the need to control or fix others, and instead focusing on embodying our own truth and leading by example - a transformative approach to personal growth and relationship building.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This episode hits differently as we close out 2024, reminding us that true love and acceptance begins with ourselves. In a world that often demands conformity and quick fixes, Raj and Lindsay's conversation offers a refreshing perspective on allowing others to be exactly who they are.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>﻿As we close out 2024, we're revisiting this powerful episode where Raj shares his experience completing a 10-day silent meditation retreat. His insights on stillness and presence feel particularly relevant in today's fast-paced, digitally connected world.</p><br><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li>The critical distinction between "doing" and "being" - exploring how our modern lifestyle pushes us to fill every moment with activity, making it harder than ever to simply exist in stillness.</li><li>The transformative power of confronting our inner world - how removing external distractions reveals the patterns, beliefs, and attachments that shape our daily experiences.</li><li>The practice of expanding awareness - learning to step back from our thoughts and witness the mind's activities from a place of compassionate observation.</li><li>Embracing uncertainty and flow - moving beyond the need to control outcomes and finding peace in life's natural unfolding, especially relevant in our increasingly unpredictable world.</li><li>The power of perspective shifts - understanding how our mental frameworks shape our reality and why expanding our viewpoint is essential for personal growth.</li><li>Finding strength in solitude - discovering the difference between being alone and feeling lonely, particularly meaningful in our hyper-connected digital age.</li><li>The importance of integrating stillness practices into daily life - why making space for silence and reflection remains crucial for navigating the complexities of 2024 and beyond.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>In a world that seems to move faster with each passing year, the courage to slow down and embrace stillness becomes increasingly valuable. Through Raj's experience, we see how creating space for silence can lead to profound insights and a deeper connection with our authentic selves. His journey shows us that beneath the constant noise of modern life lies an opportunity to discover who we truly are.</p><p>Whether you're considering your first meditation retreat or simply seeking ways to incorporate more mindful moments into your daily routine, this episode offers valuable insights for the journey inward.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this powerful episode of Stay Grounded, Raj and Alex explore courage as a fundamental vehicle for awakening and personal transformation. They dive deep into how choosing courage over comfort repeatedly in life not only leads to growth but serves as a catalyst for spiritual evolution. Through vulnerable personal stories and profound insights, they reveal how courage isn't just about taking bold actions, but about being willing to feel the emotions we most want to avoid.</p><br><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li>Every moment presents a choice between courage and comfort - growth happens when we consistently choose courage</li><li>True courage often means letting go rather than holding on tighter to our desired outcomes</li><li>Fear can serve as a compass - the things we're most afraid of often point to our greatest opportunities for growth</li><li>The path of awakening requires us to feel the emotions we're most afraid of feeling, as this liberates us from their hold</li><li>Our relationship with uncertainty and death underlies many of our fears around taking courageous action</li><li>Courage requires both trust and self-compassion as we navigate the unknown</li><li>Success often comes when we release our attachment to specific timelines and trust in divine timing</li><li>The longest journey is from the head to the heart - courage helps bridge this gap</li><li>Real growth happens when we engage with life rather than trying to control it</li><li>The paradox of courage: when we fully accept our worst fears, we become free to receive what we truly want</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Whether you're facing a career transition, relationship challenges, or simply feeling called to live more authentically, this episode offers profound insights into harnessing courage as a transformative force in your life. Raj and Alex's vulnerable sharing about their own journeys with courage - from entrepreneurial challenges to relationship fears - provides both practical wisdom and spiritual depth for anyone looking to break free from the limitations of fear and step into a more liberated way of being. If you're ready to explore how courage can serve as a catalyst for your own awakening, this episode is an essential listen.</p><br><p>Tools/resources mentioned in this episode:</p><p>"The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield</p><p>"One Last Talk" by Philip McKernan</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Will Rezin, founder of Trauma and Somatics, has trained over 400 practitioners worldwide in natural, somatic approaches to healing trauma.

His approach offers hope that we can move beyond simply managing symptoms to actually resolving trauma at its root - not through forcing change, but through gentle awareness practices that allow our natural capacity for healing to emerge.</p><br><p>Tools/resources mentioned in this episode:</p><ul><li><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zF1ofdrGoFt8brak6SRpE3JXd9b9hpng/view?usp=sharing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FREE "Meet Your Nervous System" Journal</a></li><li><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Li-9-1ualzUXS7RFEQFn8tCr7-pBSUUJ/view?usp=drive_link" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FREE Guided Meditation for Body Awareness</a></li><li><a href="https://traumaandsomatics.com/trauma-somatics/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trauma and Somatics 3-month practitioner training program</a></li><li>&nbsp;Use code: LIBER8 for $500 off the training</li><li><a href="https://www.traumaandsomatics.com/attachment-somatics" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Attachment and Somatics course&nbsp;</a></li><li>Use code: LIBER8 for $500 off the training</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Connect with Will:</p><p>Website: <a href="https://willrezin.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://willrezin.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @willrezin</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Newsletter – Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><br><p><br></p><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Natalie Adele is a transformational guide and embodiment mentor who has spent the last five years helping women reconnect with their innate feminine wisdom and power. Through her unique approach combining somatic practices, energetic work, and ancient wisdom traditions, she guides women back to their authentic expression of leadership. Moving beyond traditional paradigms of feminine power that often mimic masculine structures, Natalie challenges our modern understanding of feminine leadership and offers women a pathway back to a natural state of power.</p><br><p>Key Topics &amp; Takeaways:</p><br><p>• Discover why the most powerful woman in the room might be the most relaxed one - and what this reveals about true feminine leadership</p><p>• The surprising truth about "security vs. safety" and how this distinction changes everything about how we show up in the world</p><p>• Why digital clutter might be blocking your feminine power (and the ritual Natalie uses to clear it)</p><p>• The "garden metaphor" that completely reframes how we think about feminine development and growth</p><p>• What "Soul Yum" is and why it might be the missing ingredient in your leadership journey</p><p>• The counterintuitive approach to feminine leadership that has nothing to do with "leaning in" or traditional power structures</p><p>• Why the feminine wound of "everyone for themselves" might be holding you back, and how to heal it</p><p>• The three energy centers that form the foundation of feminine power (hint: they're not what you might expect)</p><p>• A radical new way to think about sisterhood and its role in feminine awakening</p><br><p>This isn't just another discussion about women in leadership - it's a deep dive into what becomes possible when we strip away societal conditioning and return to our innate feminine wisdom. Whether you're a woman feeling disconnected from your feminine essence, someone curious about authentic leadership, or anyone interested in understanding the true nature of feminine power, this episode offers profound insights that go far beyond traditional leadership paradigms. Natalie's approach isn't about adding more to your plate - it's about remembering what you've always known but perhaps forgotten.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this illuminating episode of Stay Grounded, Raj Jana and Alex explore the transformative power of relationships as vehicles for spiritual awakening and personal growth.

Raj and Alex's vulnerable sharing and practical wisdom illuminate how we can transform our relationship challenges into opportunities for profound personal evolution.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this profound episode of Stay Grounded, host Raj Jana sits down with Dr. Zach Bush to explore the deep interconnectedness of human health, emotional well-being, and our relationship with nature. Dr. Zach Bush, MD, is a renowned physician specializing in internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care. His work integrates a deep understanding of human biology, environmental science, and emotional health. Dr. Bush is a pioneer in the field of intrinsic health, with a focus on the microbiome and its connection to overall well-being. As the founder of the Journey of Intrinsic Health, he advocates for a holistic approach to healing, emphasizing the interdependence of emotional resilience, the microbiome, and planetary health. This conversation delves into the root causes of disconnection in modern society and presents a compelling vision for reconnecting with our intrinsic health.</p><br><p>Key insights from the episode:</p><ul><li>The surprising link between human disconnection and ancient historical events</li><li>How unprocessed emotions become "stored" in specific parts of the body, potentially leading to disease</li><li>The unexpected way quantum entanglement relates to cellular identity and healing</li><li>Why the concept of "emotional hygiene" might be more crucial for health than we've realized</li><li>The intriguing reason Dr. Bush believes humans are uniquely capable of witnessing beauty in nature</li><li>How unconditional love might be experienced through both profound joy and heartbreaking loss</li><li>The counterintuitive approach to feeling "grounded" that doesn't involve external practices or foods</li></ul><p><br></p><p>The biggest takeaway from this episode is Dr. Bush's perspective on intrinsic health and the power of reconnection. He posits that true healing comes not from external interventions, but from within - by allowing ourselves to fully feel and process our emotions, reconnecting with our bodies, and recognizing the beauty and perfection in nature and ourselves. This shift in perspective from seeking external solutions to embracing our intrinsic capacity for health and wholeness offers a profound and potentially transformative approach to wellbeing.</p><br><p>Connect with Dr. Bush:</p><p>Website:<a href="https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/</a></p><p><a href="https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join Dr Bush’s Community: https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @zachbushmd</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>In this profound episode of Stay Grounded, host Raj Jana sits down with Dr. Zach Bush to explore the deep interconnectedness of human health, emotional well-being, and our relationship with nature. Dr. Zach Bush, MD, is a renowned physician specializing in internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care. His work integrates a deep understanding of human biology, environmental science, and emotional health. Dr. Bush is a pioneer in the field of intrinsic health, with a focus on the microbiome and its connection to overall well-being. As the founder of the Journey of Intrinsic Health, he advocates for a holistic approach to healing, emphasizing the interdependence of emotional resilience, the microbiome, and planetary health. This conversation delves into the root causes of disconnection in modern society and presents a compelling vision for reconnecting with our intrinsic health.</p><br><p>Key insights from the episode:</p><ul><li>The surprising link between human disconnection and ancient historical events</li><li>How unprocessed emotions become "stored" in specific parts of the body, potentially leading to disease</li><li>The unexpected way quantum entanglement relates to cellular identity and healing</li><li>Why the concept of "emotional hygiene" might be more crucial for health than we've realized</li><li>The intriguing reason Dr. Bush believes humans are uniquely capable of witnessing beauty in nature</li><li>How unconditional love might be experienced through both profound joy and heartbreaking loss</li><li>The counterintuitive approach to feeling "grounded" that doesn't involve external practices or foods</li></ul><p><br></p><p>The biggest takeaway from this episode is Dr. Bush's perspective on intrinsic health and the power of reconnection. He posits that true healing comes not from external interventions, but from within - by allowing ourselves to fully feel and process our emotions, reconnecting with our bodies, and recognizing the beauty and perfection in nature and ourselves. This shift in perspective from seeking external solutions to embracing our intrinsic capacity for health and wholeness offers a profound and potentially transformative approach to wellbeing.</p><br><p>Connect with Dr. Bush:</p><p>Website:<a href="https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/</a></p><p><a href="https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join Dr Bush’s Community: https://journeyofintrinsichealth.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @zachbushmd</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this profound episode of Stay Grounded, Raj Jana delves deep into the transformative power of emotional hygiene and its impact on personal growth, relationships, and overall well-being. Reflecting on the past three months of his life, Raj shares valuable insights on how maintaining emotional clarity can lead to a more fulfilling and purposeful existence. This conversation with Alex King explores the importance of inner work and its ripple effects on our lives and the world around us.</p><br><p>Key insights from the episode:</p><br><p>• The unexpected benefits of expanding reflection periods from monthly to quarterly</p><p>• Why "hurt people hurt people" and how healing ourselves can create positive change</p><p>• The connection between emotional hygiene and attracting like-minded individuals</p><p>• How courage acts as a catalyst for personal growth and community healing</p><p>• The role of self-love in unlocking our innate healing potential</p><p>• Why the path from the head to the heart is "the greatest spiritual journey of a lifetime"</p><p>• The paradox of the ego's attempts to keep us safe actually making us sick</p><p>• How practicing vulnerability and authenticity can lead to miraculous transformations</p><br><p>This episode is a reminder that consistent emotional clearing and processing are fundamental to our overall health and well-being. By treating our emotional state with the same importance as our physical hygiene, we can unlock profound healing, foster deeper connections, and ultimately create a more compassionate and vibrant world. Raj emphasizes that this practice is not just about personal benefit, but about cultivating a collective shift towards a more heart-centered and authentic way of living.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tools/resources mentioned in this episode:</p><p>Ho'oponopono Prayer: "I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you."</p><p>Liber8: <a href="http://www.liber8.health" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.liber8.health </a></p><p>Newsletter - Sign up here: <a href="https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/</a></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes:<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify:<a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this powerful episode of Stay Grounded, host Raj sits down with Dr. Nasha Winters, a bestselling author, renowned integrative oncologist, and cancer thriver. With over 30 years of experience in the field having supported thousands of patients, Dr. Winters brings a unique perspective to the cancer journey, emphasizing the critical importance of emotional and spiritual healing alongside physical treatment. Together, they explore the often-overlooked aspects of cancer recovery and how inner work can be a transformative force in the healing process.</p><br><p>Key Insights:</p><br><p>• The surprising origin of the "war on cancer" mentality and how it impacts patient outcomes</p><p>• Why fear might be the biggest obstacle in cancer recovery, and how to overcome it</p><p>• The unexpected benefits some patients find in their cancer diagnosis</p><p>• How viewing cancer cells as "sociopaths" can shift your approach to treatment</p><p>• The power of curiosity in transforming the cancer experience</p><p>• Why some patients struggle to let go of their diagnosis even after remission</p><p>• The ripple effect of a cancer patient's inner work on their community and future generations</p><p>• How the "f*ck cancer" mentality might be holding patients back from true healing</p><p>• The role of self-love in cancer recovery and why it's often overlooked</p><p>• Why some of the most effective treatments aren't found in a doctor's office</p><br><p>The inner work of cancer recovery is not just about fighting a disease—it's about embarking on a profound journey of self-discovery and transformation.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of Stay Grounded, Raj and his partner Natalie take us on a transformative journey through their experience at Burning Man. This annual event in Nevada's Black Rock Desert is far more than just a festival - it's a temporary city built on principles of radical self-expression, communal effort, and gifting. For one week, tens of thousands of participants create art, share experiences, and push the boundaries of their comfort zones in a unique environment that challenges societal norms and personal limitations.</p><br><p>Key insights from Raj and Natalie's Burning Man adventure:</p><ul><li>The power of intention-setting in manifesting synchronistic experiences</li><li>How radical self-reliance paradoxically fosters deep community connection</li><li>The unexpected wisdom found in getting lost during a dust storm</li><li>Why play and childlike wonder can be profound tools for personal growth</li><li>The transformative potential of gifting without expectation of return</li><li>How Burning Man serves as a "maturation ceremony" for many participants</li><li>The delicate balance between sacred rituals and profane celebrations</li><li>The challenge and reward of truly allowing oneself to receive</li><li>Why preparing for Burning Man can be as enlightening as the event itself</li><li>How the playa becomes a mirror, reflecting one's deepest essence</li></ul><p><br></p><p>The biggest takeaway from this episode is the profound personal growth that comes from releasing control and embracing the unknown. Raj and Natalie's experiences highlight how surrendering to the unpredictable nature of Burning Man - and by extension, life itself - opens doors to transformation, deeper connection, and a more authentic way of being. Their journey teaches us that true surrender isn't about giving up, but about opening up to the magic and potential of each moment.</p><br><p>Connect with Natalie:</p><p>Instagram: @thenatalieadele</p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@SatNamSociety" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@SatNamSociety</a></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

For one week, tens of thousands of participants create art, share experiences, and push the boundaries of their comfort zones in a unique environment that challenges societal norms and personal limitations.</p><br><p>Key insights from Raj and Natalie's Burning Man adventure:</p><ul><li>The power of intention-setting in manifesting synchronistic experiences</li><li>How radical self-reliance paradoxically fosters deep community connection</li><li>The unexpected wisdom found in getting lost during a dust storm</li><li>Why play and childlike wonder can be profound tools for personal growth</li><li>The transformative potential of gifting without expectation of return</li><li>How Burning Man serves as a "maturation ceremony" for many participants</li><li>The delicate balance between sacred rituals and profane celebrations</li><li>The challenge and reward of truly allowing oneself to receive</li><li>Why preparing for Burning Man can be as enlightening as the event itself</li><li>How the playa becomes a mirror, reflecting one's deepest essence</li></ul><p><br></p><p>The biggest takeaway from this episode is the profound personal growth that comes from releasing control and embracing the unknown. Raj and Natalie's experiences highlight how surrendering to the unpredictable nature of Burning Man - and by extension, life itself - opens doors to transformation, deeper connection, and a more authentic way of being. Their journey teaches us that true surrender isn't about giving up, but about opening up to the magic and potential of each moment.</p><br><p>Connect with Natalie:</p><p>Instagram: @thenatalieadele</p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@SatNamSociety" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@SatNamSociety</a></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this transformative episode of Stay Grounded, host Raj Jana and his mentee Alex delve into the heart of what it means to hold space for others and the profound impact it can have on our relationships and personal growth. They explore the idea that holding space is an act of courage, requiring us to be fully present with another person's experience without trying to fix or change it. Raj and Alex discuss how learning to hold space for ourselves is the foundation for developing the capacity to be a compassionate presence for others.</p><br><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li>Building the courage to be present involves learning to witness others with love and empathy, without succumbing to the urge to fix or advise.</li><li>Holding space is a skill that can be learned and practiced, and it begins with doing the inner work to become more aware of our own emotions and triggers.</li><li>Being part of a community where people practice holding space for each other is essential for growth and learning.</li><li>Emotional awareness, vulnerability, and empathy are key components of effective space holding.</li><li>The ability to hold space has a ripple effect, creating a more compassionate and connected world.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This episode is a powerful invitation to embrace the transformative potential of presence and the courage it takes to show up fully for others. By learning to hold space, we not only deepen our relationships and support others in their growth, but we also embark on a profound journey of personal transformation.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this captivating episode of Stay Grounded, Raj Jana speaks with Mia Lux, a oneironaut and recovering lawyer who has dedicated the last 7+ years to mastering the art of lucid dreaming. With extensive training in both modern psychological and neurological approaches, as well as the Tibetan Buddhist lineage, Mia shares her expertise in teaching practical and effective methods for meaningful lucid dream practice. What began as a personal quest to overcome her crippling fear of death has evolved into a powerful pathway for Mia's own psychological integration and spiritual development, and she now guides others on this transformative journey.</p><br><p>Key takeaways:</p><ul><li>Lucid dreaming is a powerful tool for psychological integration, healing, and personal growth, allowing practitioners to confront their fears and shadows within the dream space.</li><li>The unconscious mind is highly intelligent and creative, offering personalized guidance and insights through dream symbolism and interactions.</li><li>Tibetan Buddhists view lucid dreaming as a practice for preparing for death, recognizing the dream state as a reflection of the dying process.</li><li>Cultivating a healthy relationship with death can lead to a more authentic and purposeful life, as it helps individuals prioritize what truly matters.</li><li>The fear of death is often rooted in a deeper fear of non-existence and the dissolution of the ego, which can be confronted through lucid dreaming and other spiritual practices.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This episode serves as an invitation to explore the vast potential of lucid dreaming as a path to self-discovery, healing, and spiritual growth. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or new to the concept, Mia's insights and expertise will inspire you to approach your dreams with a newfound sense of curiosity and reverence. By embracing the wisdom of the unconscious mind and confronting the shadows within, lucid dreaming offers a profound opportunity to deepen your understanding of yourself and the nature of reality.</p><br><p>Connect with Mia:</p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://linktr.ee/mymialux" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/mymialux</a></p><p><a href="https://nightclub.andrewholecek.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://nightclub.andrewholecek.com/</a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this deeply insightful episode of Stay Grounded, host Raj engages in a powerful conversation with his friend Lindsay Sukornyk about the transformative nature of unconditional love and acceptance. Together, they explore the challenges and rewards of learning to love others exactly as they are, without needing them to change or conform to our expectations. Through their honest and vulnerable sharing, Raj and Lindsay invite listeners to embrace the journey of releasing attachment and cultivating true compassion.</p><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li>Understanding that everyone is on their own unique path and timeline of growth, and learning to celebrate their journey without judgment or expectation</li><li>Recognizing that our desire for others to change often stems from our own unhealed wounds or unmet needs, and taking responsibility for our own inner work</li><li>Cultivating the ability to hold space for others with compassion and understanding, even when their actions or beliefs differ from our own</li><li>Practicing radical acceptance and learning to find the beauty and perfection in each person's journey, trusting that they are exactly where they need to be</li><li>Letting go of the need to control or fix others, and instead focusing on embodying our own truth and leading by example</li></ul><p>This episode serves as a powerful reminder that true love and acceptance begins with ourselves. By learning to embrace our own journey and release the need for others to change, we open ourselves up to a world of deeper connection, compassion, and understanding.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this profound and soul-stirring episode of Stay Grounded, Raj engages in a captivating conversation with renowned speaker, artist, writer Tricia Eastman. Tricia Eastman, a lineage-honoring medicine woman and founder of nonprofit Ancestral Heart, bridges worlds rooted in her mestiza ancestry with profound insights from a decade of Bwiti initiations and training. Together, they delve into the realms of indigenous wisdom, initiation, and the alchemical process of transformation. Tricia shares her personal journey of reconnecting with her ancestral roots and the powerful experiences that have shaped her path as a facilitator of healing and awakening. Through their dialogue, Raj and Tricia uncover the deep significance of embracing our shadows, listening to the wisdom of the Earth, and cultivating a daily practice to stay grounded amidst the challenges of modern life.</p><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li>Importance of reconnecting with our ancestral wisdom and the intelligence of nature in the process of healing and spiritual growth.</li><li>The Earth as a teacher, offering transmissions and lessons through the unique qualities of different places and the elements present in those environments.</li><li>The process of alchemy, turning the negredo (shadow) into gold (life force energy) requires facing our fears and leaning into initiatory experiences.</li><li>Indigenous elders, such as the Kogi Mamos, offer urgent warnings about the state of our planet and the need for humanity to become better stewards of the Earth.</li></ul><p>This episode is a clarion call for listeners to embrace the path of initiation and transformation, both for personal growth and for the healing of our planet. Tricia's wisdom and experiences serve as a reminder that by reconnecting with our ancestral roots, listening to the wisdom of the Earth, and facing our shadows, we can alchemize our challenges into fuel for our soul's purpose. Whether you are drawn to indigenous traditions, psychedelics, or simply the quest for a more grounded and awakened life, this conversation will inspire you to dive deeper into the mystery of your own being and the interconnectedness of all life.</p><p>Tools/resources mentioned in this episode:</p><br><p>Tricia’s new book “Seeding Consciousness", here’s a link to pre-order: <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/seeding-consciousness-plant-medicine-ancestral-wisdom-and-psychedelic-initiation-tricia-eastman/21003064?aid=93133&amp;ean=9781591435334&amp;listref=seeding-consciousness-plant-medicine-ancestral-wisdom-and-psychedelic-initiation&amp;" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bookshop.org/p/books/seeding-consciousness-plant-medicine-ancestral-wisdom-and-psychedelic-initiation-tricia-eastman/21003064?aid=93133&amp;ean=9781591435334&amp;listref=seeding-consciousness-plant-medicine-ancestral-wisdom-and-psychedelic-initiation&amp;</a></p><br><p>Connect with Tricia:</p><p>Instagram: @<a href="https://www.instagram.com/psychedelicjourneys/#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">psychedelicjourneys</a></p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Instagram: @<a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">raj_jana</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this deeply introspective episode of Stay Grounded, Raj Jana shares his powerful reflections on the transformative month of March. From healing generational trauma and rage to accessing new levels of authenticity and leadership, Raj takes us on a journey of self-discovery, vulnerability, and growth. Through his candid and heartfelt sharing, Raj invites us to explore the depths of our own shadows, the power of surrendering to a higher intelligence, and the immense rewards of doing the inner work.</p><br><p>Key Takeaways:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>The impact of doing deep shadow work on our relationships with family, intimate partners, and team members</li><li>The importance of processing unexpressed rage and anger in a safe community setting to prevent destructive patterns</li><li>The power of devotional living - optimizing for truth and love in every moment and interaction</li><li>Navigating the dance between fighting for what we want and letting go when it's time to surrender</li><li>The profound shifts that occur when we commit to a path of self-awareness, healing, and personal growth</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Through his own remarkable journey - from healing his relationship with his father to stepping into a new level of leadership and service - Raj reminds us that the path of awakening is not always easy, but it is infinitely rewarding. He encourages us to trust in the unfolding of our own unique journey, to lean into the discomfort of growth, and to remember that we are never alone in our healing.</p><br><p>If you're feeling called to dive deeper into your own self-discovery journey, to break free from limiting patterns, and to create a life of greater alignment and authenticity, this episode will provide you with the inspiration and tools you need.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this deeply insightful episode of Stay Grounded, Raj sits down with the remarkable Anna-Lisa Adelberg, a teacher, guide, and co-founder of the Luminous Awareness Institute that offers students an awakening and healing path synthesized from Tibetan Buddhism, developmental psychology, neurophysiology, and subtle energy. With over 30 years of experience in supporting individuals on their paths of healing and awakening, Anna-Lisa shares her wisdom on the power of relational healing, the importance of belonging, and the transformative potential of integrating the masculine and feminine energies within us. Through their heartfelt conversation, Raj and Anna-Lisa explore the inner workings of the mind, the impact of early childhood experiences, and the role of community in accelerating our growth and evolution.</p><br><p>Key Takeaways:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>The power of being seen, recognized, and validated in our wholeness, both as our infinite divine nature and as our unique human expression</li><li>Understanding the biological imperative of attachment and the impact of early childhood experiences on our adult relationships</li><li>The importance of healing in community and how we can become "medicine" for each other in a group setting</li><li>Navigating the balance between the masculine qualities of structure, direction, and leadership, and the feminine qualities of unconditional love, emotional attunement, and intuitive wisdom</li><li>The role of self-awareness in disidentifying from our conditioned patterns and connecting to our true essence as an infinite source of intelligence and love</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Through their discussion, Raj and Anna-Lisa remind us of the power of surrendering to a greater intelligence, one that is always guiding us towards healing, wholeness, and true fulfillment. They invite us to embrace both the light and shadow aspects of our being, and to find the courage to show up authentically in our relationships and communities.</p><br><p>Whether you're just starting out on your healing journey or you're a seasoned seeker looking to deepen your practice, this episode is a must-listen.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In February’s reflection episode of Stay Grounded, Raj vulnerably shares his journey of breaking free from unconscious coping mechanisms and conditioned behavior patterns that were disconnecting him from his authentic needs and desires - particularly in the realm of relationships.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Discover in this episode:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How childhood wounding and unmet needs fuel adult behaviors of self-abandonment</li><li>The vital importance of spaces where men and women can vulnerably share without judgment</li><li>The power of "rooting down" and cultivating intimacy with all our parts, especially hurt inner children</li><li>Why fully feeling challenging emotions is the gateway to genuine behavior change</li><li>How to cultivate shame-free self-awareness and break free from compulsive patterns</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you've ever struggled to break a self-defeating habit or release an addiction, this episode offers inspiration to compassionately unwind the roots of these patterns. With candid stories and hard-won insights, Raj illuminates why self-abandonment and unprocessed trauma fuel unconscious behaviors - and how radical self-love and courageous truth-telling create new possibilities.</p><br><p>Raj's words will remind you that you are not alone. Let this conversation inspire you to courageously speak your own unspoken stories, reach out for support, and take daily steps toward embracing all parts of yourself. Witness how the simple act of naming the shame serves to dissolve its power.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>In February’s reflection episode of Stay Grounded, Raj vulnerably shares his journey of breaking free from unconscious coping mechanisms and conditioned behavior patterns that were disconnecting him from his authentic needs and desires - particularly in the realm of relationships.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Discover in this episode:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How childhood wounding and unmet needs fuel adult behaviors of self-abandonment</li><li>The vital importance of spaces where men and women can vulnerably share without judgment</li><li>The power of "rooting down" and cultivating intimacy with all our parts, especially hurt inner children</li><li>Why fully feeling challenging emotions is the gateway to genuine behavior change</li><li>How to cultivate shame-free self-awareness and break free from compulsive patterns</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you've ever struggled to break a self-defeating habit or release an addiction, this episode offers inspiration to compassionately unwind the roots of these patterns. With candid stories and hard-won insights, Raj illuminates why self-abandonment and unprocessed trauma fuel unconscious behaviors - and how radical self-love and courageous truth-telling create new possibilities.</p><br><p>Raj's words will remind you that you are not alone. Let this conversation inspire you to courageously speak your own unspoken stories, reach out for support, and take daily steps toward embracing all parts of yourself. Witness how the simple act of naming the shame serves to dissolve its power.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Raj speaks with Sarah Spears about her journey of healing from an eating disorder using emotional release techniques. With over a decade of experience as a licensed therapist, eating psychology coach, EFT practitioner, and certified reiki master, Sarah intimately understands the mind-body connection and has leveraged her journey of recovering from an eating disorder into a passion for helping others achieve freedom from their pain.</p><br><p>A few things they discuss:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How tapping into long-buried emotions finally enabled Sarah to break free from years of secret bulimia after failed attempts to control her compulsions.</li><li>Why we emotionally eat and abuse substances - the childhood origins of losing touch with our feelings.</li><li>The unexpected mental, physical and spiritual shifts Sarah began experiencing when she found the courage to express anger for the first time.</li><li>How fully feeling rather than feeding our feelings opens conduits to self-trust, embodiment and unconditional self-love.</li><li>Where mindfulness reaches its limit - and how Sarah accessed radical new dimensions of joy and creativity by connecting to her Highest Self.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Sarah guides people to break free from the food addiction cycle by discovering the emotional roots perpetuating their issues and developing skills to healthfully feel, express and release pent up energies for good. This episode offers an integrative approach addressing mind, body and spirit simultaneously so we can transform our inner worlds and outward habits for lasting change.</p><br><p>Connect with Sarah:</p><br><p>Website: <a href="https://sarahspeers.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sarahspeers.com/</a></p><p>Email: <a href="mailto:info@sarahspeers.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">info@sarahspeers.com</a></p><p>Podcast: <a href="https://the-empowered-eating-living-podcast.simplecast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://the-empowered-eating-living-podcast.simplecast.com/</a>&nbsp;</p><br><p><br></p><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana</a></p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

With over a decade of experience as a licensed therapist, eating psychology coach, EFT practitioner, and certified reiki master, Sarah intimately understands the mind-body connection and has leveraged her journey of recovering from an eating disorder into a passion for helping others achieve freedom from their pain.</p><br><p>A few things they discuss:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How tapping into long-buried emotions finally enabled Sarah to break free from years of secret bulimia after failed attempts to control her compulsions.</li><li>Why we emotionally eat and abuse substances - the childhood origins of losing touch with our feelings.</li><li>The unexpected mental, physical and spiritual shifts Sarah began experiencing when she found the courage to express anger for the first time.</li><li>How fully feeling rather than feeding our feelings opens conduits to self-trust, embodiment and unconditional self-love.</li><li>Where mindfulness reaches its limit - and how Sarah accessed radical new dimensions of joy and creativity by connecting to her Highest Self.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Sarah guides people to break free from the food addiction cycle by discovering the emotional roots perpetuating their issues and developing skills to healthfully feel, express and release pent up energies for good. This episode offers an integrative approach addressing mind, body and spirit simultaneously so we can transform our inner worlds and outward habits for lasting change.</p><br><p>Connect with Sarah:</p><br><p>Website: <a href="https://sarahspeers.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sarahspeers.com/</a></p><p>Email: <a href="mailto:info@sarahspeers.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">info@sarahspeers.com</a></p><p>Podcast: <a href="https://the-empowered-eating-living-podcast.simplecast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://the-empowered-eating-living-podcast.simplecast.com/</a>&nbsp;</p><br><p><br></p><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana</a></p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this week’s episode of Stay Grounded, Raj interviews a cancer thriver who recently completed Liber8’s Precision Emotional Healing for Cancer program.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you or someone you love has been impacted by cancer, you know the immense physical, mental, and emotional toll it can take. While essential, standard medical treatments are simply not enough. Angie's story beautifully illustrates how holistically supporting mental and emotional health can profoundly improve quality of life and health outcomes.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>In the Precision Emotional Healing for Cancer program, participants like Angie undergo a proprietary mapping process to pinpoint core wounds and hidden stressors that may be sabotaging health and wellbeing. They receive tailored support and practices to process old pain, build self-worth, and move forward with more resilience and joy.&nbsp;</p><br><p>A few things discussed on this episode:&nbsp;</p><br><p>- Angie was first diagnosed with a rare blood cancer (hairy cell leukemia) at age 41, then had two additional recurrences. Her cancer journey has been stressful and emotionally difficult.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>- She intuitively felt stress played a major role and tried various things like meditation and therapy to relieve it, but still felt overwhelmed.</p><br><p>- Angie joined Liber8's Precision Emotional Healing for Cancer program after seeing Raj in a video. She intuitively trusted that this program could help support her recovery.</p><br><p>- Through the 3 month program, Angie gained profound insight into core wounds and pain points sabotaging her health. We discuss her tailored program for building self-worth, confidence to trust her intuition, and the ability to handle challenges with more ease and humor.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The transformations the Liber8 program facilitates for cancer patients are remarkable - improved labs and scans, healed relationships, enhanced energy, purpose and zest for life. Angie described emerging with greater confidence, intuition, and excitement to pursue her soul's calling of serving others impacted by cancer.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you found Angie's experience relatable and inspiring, visit www.liber8.health/cancer to learn more about this innovative program and upcoming cohort dates. Investing in emotional healing and empowerment could be one of the most meaningful gifts you give yourself or a loved one on the cancer journey.</p><br><p><br></p><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Website: <a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana</a></p><p>iTunes: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</a></p><p>Liber8: &nbsp;<a href="www.liber8.health/cancer&nbsp;" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.liber8.health/cancer&nbsp;</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this thought-provoking discussion, Dan Russell chats with Raj Jana about the discomfort that often arises when we allow ourselves to sit with challenging emotions and triggers.

As the founder of Hama, a personal growth community offering online and in-person programs focused on enlightenment, Dan has dedicated himself to researching techniques and tools for conscious living. After stepping back from a successful marketing career to embark on his own journey of self-inquiry, he now guides others looking to actualize the best version of themselves.</p><br><p>Key takeaways:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Plant medicines and other modalities can bring unconscious beliefs and traumas to the surface, but the real work happens in how skillfully we integrate these lessons into our daily living.</li><li>Sitting with discomfort and leaning into triggered emotional spaces with courage is essential for growth - this builds our "awareness muscle."</li><li>Realigning with our deepest principles helps us stay anchored in a state of grace, allowing external triggers to bounce off us.</li><li>Cultivating proactive awareness through stillness practices allows us to pause and retain choice over our responses rather than blindly reacting.</li><li>The journey of self-inquiry and consciously working on ourselves is a profound gift that serves our life purpose in each passing moment.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This insightful discussion reminds us that integrating our experiences and doing the ongoing work of "becoming" is what enables real and lasting transformation.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Raj shares about his experience recently completing a 10-day silent meditation retreat. He discusses the profound lessons and insights he gained.</p><br><p>Key Takeaways:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>The difference between "doing" and "being" and how we often use activity and busyness to distract from simply being.</li><li>How sitting in stillness and silence forced Raj to confront deeply rooted patterns, beliefs, fears and attachments.</li><li>The value of "zooming out" - accessing higher states of consciousness and awareness to witness the egoic mind with compassion.</li><li>Letting go of control and moving from a place of trying to "manifest" outcomes to one of allowing and trusting in the perfection of each moment.</li><li>Shifting perspective - how our perceptions create our reality. WIDENING one's lens is a spiritual practice.</li><li>Aloneness versus loneliness. Learning to find nourishment in solitude.</li><li>Why Raj feels integrating more slowing down and stillness will serve his life in 2024.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>In a world that glorifies busyness and productivity, creating space for stillness often takes courage, but offers immense rewards. As Raj discovered, when we slow down and cut away external distractions, we open the doorway to greater presence, self-awareness, and alignment with our deeper truth. We come home to who we really are.</p><br><p>If you're feeling the urge to explore more stillness and silence in your own life, whether for 10 minutes or 10 days, this episode offers much food for thought. Raj's experience serves as inspiration to us all on the value of simply "being" amidst life's perpetual motion.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>You love my monthly reflections, where I share my honest, personal, and practical insights. Now, I am giving you a special gift: my yearly reflection process. This is how I review my past year and prepare for the next one. You'll learn how to close this year with gratitude and intention, and how to create a vision for the new year that aligns with your true self. I will show you the steps and the rituals I use to make this process meaningful and effective. This is your chance to learn from my experience and apply my tools to your own life. Don't miss this opportunity to reflect, grow, and transform.</p><br><p>When I think about my pace of growth, I’m so clear it’s because I’ve cultivated a lifestyle of awareness. This means I intentionally carve out time to reflect on the things that are happening in my life - and how I move through them.&nbsp;</p><br><p>For me, hindsight is a 20/20 vision. Reflection reveals all the lessons and secrets life is teaching me. You can avoid repeating mistakes and integrate discoveries with more ease and grace by pulling them out.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you’re a regular listener of Stay Grounded, you’ll know I reflect monthly. I reflect on an annual basis too. It’s actually one of my most favorite things I do.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And in this episode, I’m revealing my entire process- step by step. Check it out.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Key topics covered:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why your annual reflection starts with a month-by-month overview.</li><li>Why do we look for the highs and lows - not the wins and losses?&nbsp;</li><li>Annual reflection as a game of two halves.&nbsp;</li><li>Really learning from ‘mistakes’.&nbsp;</li><li>My closure ritual (and why it’s not for the end of the year alone).&nbsp;</li><li>My 7 reflection questions.&nbsp;</li><li>Finding your theme.&nbsp;</li><li>Crafting goals around the way I want to feel - instead of the things I want to attract.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>BONUS! Here’s a list of the reflection questions I ask in the episode:&nbsp;</p><ol><li> Who or what would you like to acknowledge?</li><li> What would you like to acknowledge about yourself?</li><li> What are you ready to let go of or forgive?</li><li> What did you love most about 2018?</li><li> What do you want more of / what do you want to do differently in 2019?</li><li> What would need to happen for you to feel the complete closure of 2018?</li><li> What’s next for you RIGHT NOW?</li></ol><p><br></p><br><p>This reflection process is here for you to explore whenever you choose to take some self-awareness time for yourself. It’s perfect for closing out the year, but you can also use this sequence anytime you’re at an ending. I hope you enjoy it!</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><p>Website:<a href="http://www.rajjana.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> http://www.rajjana.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana</a></p><p>Spotify:<a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><br></p><br><p>In this month's reflection episode of Stay Grounded, Raj explores the themes of self-trust, self-healing, and stepping into your highest potential.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Key insights:</p><br><p>- Shift your relationship with uncertainty and mortality. Confronting grief allows you to fearlessly embrace change.</p><br><p>- Rejection stems from inner self-abandonment. Heal these wounds to transform outer experiences. Redirect into self-love.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>- Keep asking if your choices signal trusting the universe's support. This surrender allows life's harmony to flow through you.</p><br><p>- Master awareness with ruthless honesty. Name ego/resistance then lean into emotional discomfort.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><br></p><br><p>In this month's reflection episode of Stay Grounded, Raj explores the themes of self-trust, self-healing, and stepping into your highest potential.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Key insights:</p><br><p>- Shift your relationship with uncertainty and mortality. Confronting grief allows you to fearlessly embrace change.</p><br><p>- Rejection stems from inner self-abandonment. Heal these wounds to transform outer experiences. Redirect into self-love.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>- Keep asking if your choices signal trusting the universe's support. This surrender allows life's harmony to flow through you.</p><br><p>- Master awareness with ruthless honesty. Name ego/resistance then lean into emotional discomfort. This builds confidence.&nbsp;</p><br><p>- Continually uncover your wholeness through inner work. It's an infinite art project of self-discovery and actualization.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>- Lead with curiosity, not judgment about your past. This leads to growth and rewriting limiting stories.</p><br><p>Raj shares his lessons around standing confidently in faith by shifting his relationship with control, fully grieving losses, healing childhood rejection wounds, and boldly trusting the unfolding of life's plan.</p><br><p>He also speaks candidly about preparing for a 10 day silent meditation retreat with the intention to access assurance and wholeness from within, no matter the external circumstances.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As always, Raj inspires us to bravely step into unknown growth territory in order to uncover the certainty and composure on the other side.</p><br><p>Timestamps:</p><br><p>0:00 - Introduction</p><p>5:20 - Reflecting on personal growth over the past year</p><p>8:40 - Discussing the importance of surrendering and trusting the universe</p><p>12:30 - Shifting relationship with mortality and loss</p><p>23:36 - Facing rejection and failure as forms of "ego death"</p><p>27:11 - Communicating with and understanding the inner child self</p><p>33:18 - The role of others in calling out unhelpful mindsets/behaviors</p><p>37:06 - Rediscovering the self in midlife</p><p>44:42 - Pride in personal growth and evolution</p><p>48:38 - Preparing to sit with discomfort and the "nothingness"</p><p>49:37 - Removing self from manifestation equation</p><p>53:06 - Following life's flow and aliveness</p><br><p>Connect with Raj:</p><br><p>Website: http://www.rajjana.com/</p><p>Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana</p><p>iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490</p><p>Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP</p><p>YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana</p><br><p><br></p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">iTunes</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of Stay Grounded, my guest is Amish Shah, a serial entrepreneur, and a passionate producer of a new documentary&nbsp; - The Natural Law - a powerful film that highlights the healing power of Ayurveda.&nbsp;</p><br><p>After crashing and burning out as a serial entrepreneur, he became incredibly ill and battled serious health issues for over a decade. His failure within the conventional medical system led him to India in search for holistic ways of healing, which is where he stumbled into Ayurveda.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Amish studied Ayurveda intensely, met with global experts, and began applying its teachings. He experienced a gentle yet profoundly transformative healing crisis. Finally his symptoms resolved and he felt better than ever - with many friends saying he looked like he was aging backwards.</p><br><p>In this episode, Amish breaks down what Ayurveda is, how to get the most out of this ancient technology, and what could be possible for your health by incorporating a more holistic approach.</p><br><p>Key topics discussed:</p><br><p>•&nbsp; Amish Shah shares his story of how he discovered Ayurveda, the ancient science of life, and how it helped him heal from chronic health issues.</p><br><p>•&nbsp; Amish explains the basics of Ayurveda, such as the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), the five elements (Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth), and the importance of balance and harmony in the body and mind.</p><br><p>•&nbsp; Amish talks about his documentary film, The Natural Law, which showcases the benefits of Ayurveda for various conditions, such as cancer, thyroid, autism, ADHD, and more.</p><br><p>•&nbsp; Amish reveals his morning ritual that helps him stay grounded and focused every day, which includes gratitude, tongue scraping, oil pulling, massage, exercise, meditation, and breath work.</p><br><p>•&nbsp; Amish discusses the role of community in healing and how he created a platform called Liberate to connect people with holistic practitioners and modalities.</p><br><p>Consider this podcast as “Ayurveda for Dummies.” When I began recording this episode, I knew nothing about Ayurveda and left feeling empowered to take my first steps.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of Stay Grounded, my dear friend Paul Hutchinson joins me for an in-depth conversation about the path to forgiveness and spiritual freedom.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Paul Hutchinson is a successful entrepreneur, a humanitarian, and a filmmaker.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Practicing Emotional Sobriety</p><br><p>In this monthly reflection episode of Stay Grounded, Raj shares his journey towards “emotional sobriety” and liberating himself from destructive mind patterns.

He advocates tuning into nature's frequency and trusting life's flow.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this week's episode, we explore the healing power of unconditional love with Executive Life and Business Coach Ryan Matsumori.</p><br><p>With over 10 years of experience as a transformational life coach, Ryan Matsumori has an in-depth understanding of human relationships and personal growth. As a Professional Certified Coach recognized by the International Coaching Federation, Ryan has supported over 500 clients in developing self-love, confidence, and clarity within themselves. Having walked his own journey to embrace vulnerability and listen to his heart after a difficult divorce, Ryan is adept at guiding others to break free of limiting beliefs and conditioning to live a life aligned with their truths.</p><br><p>Some key insights from Ryan:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Unconditional love provides the safety for us to be vulnerable and express all parts of ourselves without fear of judgment. This allows us to be grounded in our most authentic selves.</li><li>When we focus on our own self-judgment, we disconnect from both ourselves and others. But being intimate with all aspects of ourselves is crucial for alignment.</li><li>The mind often projects limiting beliefs based on past experiences. But the wisdom of the heart can guide us to create a different future aligned with our truths.</li><li>Going through intense hardship cracked open Ryan's constructs and allowed him to finally listen to his heart's wisdom. We often need trauma to prompt our awakening.</li><li>Simple practices like conscious breathing, shaking, and bounding can regulate our nervous system and bring our bodies into a state of safety and grounding.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This heart-opening discussion is a reminder that love - for ourselves, others, and the universe - is always available if we allow ourselves to access it by breaking free of limiting beliefs. When we trust we are unconditionally loved, we gain the courage to live fully as our truest selves.</p><br><p>Timestamps:</p><br><p>0:00 - Intro</p><p>3:00 - Having Authentic Conversations</p><p>7:00 - Learning to be present with ourselves.</p><p>10:00 - What Is Self Judgement?</p><p>15:00 - Creating safety</p><p>24:45 - Out of the head, into the body.</p><p>33:00 - Becoming aware of your limiting beliefs</p><p>42:00 - Moving into the heart</p><br><p>Connect with Ryan:</p><br><p><a href="mailto:Ryanmatsumoricoaching@gmail.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Email</a> </p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ryan.matsumori?mibextid=LQQJ4d" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a> </p><br><p>Connect with Raj: </p><br><p><a href="http://www.rajjana.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a></p><p><a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><br><p><br></p><p>Tools mentioned in this episode:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Brag Book: ​​A simple way to compile all your excellent feedback or the impact you created</li><li>Shaking and bouncing for nervous system regulation</li><li>Hand on heart, conscious breathing practice</li><li>Getting out of head and into body</li><li>Exploring the mind, heart, gut perspectives</li><li>Unconditional love and presence</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, we dive deep into redefining masculinity and mental health with John O'Connor.&nbsp;</p><br><p>With over two decades of experience and 10,000 hours logged coaching high-achieving men, John is one of the most qualified individuals I could possibly find to speak on the subject. As a husband, father, and former entrepreneur who got sober 22 years ago, John shares vulnerably about his own journey with alcohol addiction, suicidal ideation, and generational trauma, modeling a new paradigm of masculine strength through emotional openness.</p><br><p>Key topics discussed:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>John's process of getting sober over 22 years ago and the tools that helped him create lasting change. We talk about the importance of community support and therapy in working through underlying issues.</li><li>How fully embodying our struggles and sitting with discomfort is critical for growth, versus numbing or distracting ourselves. John shares his brilliant "90 day rule" for uncovering what we're masking.</li><li>John courageously opens up about past suicidal thoughts, even amidst living a life he loves. We discuss how generational and ancestral trauma can unconsciously manifest. The power of sharing vulnerably to release shame.</li><li>Practical somatic tools John uses when difficult emotions arise, like the C.O.R.E. method for non-reactive processing. How allowing our feelings to just be can dissolve their charge over time.</li><li>The trap of ego and the discernment around what to share relationally vs. internally process first. How vulnerability invites reciprocity in intimacy.</li><li>John's current work hosting men's retreats and how healing journeys invite a new paradigm of masculine emotional expression.</li><li>Daily practices, like grounding through tea ceremonies, that keep John feeling centered amidst life's chaos.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This conversation models a new vision of masculine mental health - one of courageous emotional work, inner exploration and interdependence. John demonstrates a grounded strength that comes from sharing vulnerably. His story inspires all of us to bring more truth into the light.</p><br><p><br></p><p>Resources mentioned in this episode:</p><br><p>The Art of Contemplation training</p><p>Book: Essential Skills for Extraordinary Living (coming soon) </p><p>Core blueprint audiobook (coming soon) Jayson Gaddis - Getting to Zero book</p><br><p>Connect with John: </p><p><a href="https://www.johnoconnor.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a> </p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/johnoconnor/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><br><p> Connect with Raj: </p><p><a href="http://www.rajjana.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a> <a href="http://www.instagram.com/raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">iTunes</a> <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBP" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@raj_jana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a></p><br><p>Legal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Last week on October 7th, there was a grueling terrorist attack on innocent Jewish people. Since then, there have been heartbreaking levels of carnage happening to innocent Palestinian people.</p><br><p>My heart breaks for humanity. This podcast is not about choosing a side. So much innocent bloodshed. There are no winners in this fight.&nbsp;</p><br><p>What we need, now more than ever, is the capacity within us to relate with one another on a HUMAN level. To feel and recognize another’s pain while holding space for our own. To emotionally connect with people who look and act differently than us. With people who have differing opinions and differing life experiences from us. With people who see the world differently than we do.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And I brought on my dear friend, Mr. Jay P. Newman, to help inspire the courage and give you the tools to do so effectively.</p><br><p>Jay P. Newman is a dear brother of mine, a successful entrepreneur and investor, and a mentor inside of his local Jewish communities. We had this podcast scheduled to record days after the initial Israel attacks and decided to trust the timing of it all and record something incredibly relevant for the times we are in.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Key Topics Discussed:</p><br><p>* Why it's difficult yet essential to remain open-hearted in times of conflict</p><p>* How bearing witness to each other's pain can dissolve barriers</p><p>* The courage required to hold space for grief and disagreements with empathy</p><p>* Choosing happiness over "being right" in relationships and world affairs</p><p>* The power of listening with genuine curiosity about different perspectives</p><p>* The ultimate goal of recognizing our common bonds despite surface differences</p><p>* Faith in life's bigger picture as an antidote to getting lost in fear-based narratives &amp; stories</p><p>* Centering our energy on what unites us rather than divides us as human beings</p><p>* The inner work and mindfulness needed to tap into empathy amidst outer turmoil</p><p>* Small acts of humanity that start ripples of peace: how we each play a part</p><p>* Finding inspiration in leaders who embody compassionate, heart-centered leadership</p><br><p>If you’ve been affected by these tragic events, I want you to feel my heart with you. I’m sorry that this type of darkness exists in the world. I hope this podcast offers you solace and grounding as you navigate a very complex emotional landscape.&nbsp;</p><p>Sending you all of my love.</p><br><p>Resources mentioned in this episode: Podcast- Investing On Purpose with JP Newman and Ryan Daniel Moran</p><br><p>Connect with Jay P.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>This week’s episode is with my brother Andrew Horn.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Andrew is the founder of Tribute, which the New Yorker recently called “Hallmark 2.0.” Tribute makes it easy to create group video montages and send 1-on-1 video greetings and gifts to the people you love. Since starting, Tribute has sent over 5 million video montages to people.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In addition to Tribute, Andrew is the founder of Junto - a non-profit organization that is committed to the exploration of modern masculinity and personal transformation. The organization hosts men’s wilderness retreats and virtual masterminds across the United States.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Through his various ventures, Andrew has dedicated his life to helping others foster genuine self-trust, authenticity, and vulnerability. He is passionate about helping others build nourishing relationships from a place of self-awareness and empowerment.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I cannot think of someone more qualified than Andrew when it comes to teaching how to successfully create meaningful relationships. Here are a few topics we cover:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Developing an "autotelic" personality to cultivate more flow in your life.</li><li>Practical tips to ease social anxiety.</li><li>How to ask great questions and shift self-consciousness when you’re in conversation with others</li><li>Embracing the power of active appreciation in solidifying important relationships in your life.</li><li>Breaking free from shame-inducing stories and establishing positive self-beliefs</li><li>Why being authentic for the sake of being authentic is not helpful for your relationships</li><li>And so much more...</li></ul><p>Andrew is one of the most inspiring human beings I know. He walks the talk, lives form a foundation of deep gratitude and has designed a life that is RICH in emotional and relational wealth.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I’m a massive advocate for leaning into your family and intimate relationships as catalysts for rapid transformation and growth. May 2023 has been a masterclass for me in showing up with authentic and grounded vulnerability to unleash profound levels of emotional intimacy and connection in my relationships. One of the most profound months of growth I have ever experienced. There is so much going on in my life right now, and as usual, you get a front row seat in this month’s reflection episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune in now to hear Georgina and I explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>What’s possible when you choose to close one chapter of a relationship with love to intentionally create space for the next</li><li>The power of keeping your heart open when it feels safer (or easier) to close.&nbsp;</li><li>The 100 days of Raj challenge</li><li>Giving your shame and other “prickly” emotions the space to breathe</li><li>Why mastering your interpersonal relationships begins with a commitment to self&nbsp;</li><li>How expressing your vulnerability gives others permission to do the same&nbsp;</li><li>Communicating your needs to others in a loving way that invites collaboration&nbsp;</li><li>How creating a personal manifesto serves as an essential grounding tool to carry you through challenging moments</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>It’s not always easy to live our truth when we’re afraid of how we will be received by others, but if embraced, I’ve found that vulnerability and authenticity can offer so much freedom. When you choose to keep your heart open and seek love in every moment, somehow, you naturally experience more of who and what you actually are.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Thanks for tuning into this reflection.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>When confronted with adversity, it is natural to tense up and resist what is happening.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But what if there’s a more intuitive approach to managing adverse life experiences that leaves you feeling emotionally resilient, connected to forces unseen, and held by the graceful hands of life?&nbsp;</p><br><p>Bailee Buckedorff’s life turned upside down when she lost her husband to suicide and was left to tend to her 3 young children on her own. Shortly afterwards, she “fell” into an opportunity to learn from and be held by Guru Singh, a celebrated 3rd generation yogi and master spiritual teacher. Fast forward 4 years, Bailee is now the founder of 13 Moons - an online community that showcases a library of Guru Signh’s teachings and provides tools like guided meditations and kundalini to help you stay grounded through a daily spiritual practice.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This podcast is the story of a woman who has allowed herself to be led by spirit through the darkest of times. She fell into entrepreneurship through seemingly divine orchestration, by listening to what wants to happen and acting in the direction of what she hears. We discuss the power of slowing down in times of adversity, using reflection as a tool for growth, and the power of operating in life through the lens of your unique design.

I spent the first three weeks of April prepping for the event. It was important to me to get clarity on the intentions I wanted to take into ceremony.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The retreat was an invitation to explore what’s been hiding in my shadow - the source of my greatest fears and my greatest potential. It’s been a long road to get to this point in my life, but something inside me knew it was time to ask myself the bold questions that I was afraid to know the answers to.</p><br><p>What resulted was the most transformative journey I’ve ever experienced. I found the root of my inner critic, and replaced the critical voice in my head with that of a compassionate guide. My relationship with myself has shifted entirely. More than that, I now understand what it means to love myself fully - and it’s changing how I show up in every single area of my life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I share many more details and takeaways in the episode, including:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Using feelings in the body as a gateway to healing</li><li>Recognizing and communicating with the different voices within&nbsp;</li><li>Cultivating compassion for the protective mechanisms that cause pain.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of seeing others as a mirror.&nbsp;</li><li>What’s possible when you feel trapped emotions.&nbsp;</li><li>Honoring the commitments I make with myself.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Thank you all for giving me the gift of your attention.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>This episode is with my soul sister and dear friend, Lindsay Sukornyk. Lindsay is a TEDx speaker, transformational leadership coach for game changers, mama of 4, and one of the most inspiring souls I know. Her depth and willingness to navigate the edges of her psyche is one of my favorite things about her. In this deep dive conversation recorded LIVE in Nosara, Lindsay and I discuss using parts therapy to practice self love, learning to parent yourself as a form of self therapy, and how awareness is THE most powerful medicine of all. It was an incredibly enlightening conversation that left me nourished from the inside out. I hope you guys enjoy listening to this one as much as I did recording.</p><br><p>Disclaimer: The content of this podcast is not intended to replace professional mental health support.

Her depth and willingness to navigate the edges of her psyche is one of my favorite things about her. In this deep dive conversation recorded LIVE in Nosara, Lindsay and I discuss using parts therapy to practice self love, learning to parent yourself as a form of self therapy, and how awareness is THE most powerful medicine of all. It was an incredibly enlightening conversation that left me nourished from the inside out. I hope you guys enjoy listening to this one as much as I did recording.</p><br><p>Disclaimer: The content of this podcast is not intended to replace professional mental health support.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>How do you navigate life when your reality doesn’t align with your expectations?&nbsp;</p><br><p>February was a month of deep and difficult reflection for me. I found myself revisiting the topic of attachments and expectations - in business, health, and relationships.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In many ways, I’ve been battling with myself as I cultivate the courage to stay connected to the magic of the moment instead of dwelling on the unmet desires of my ego.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I think this is a common dilemma.&nbsp;</p><br><p>What does it mean when we don’t manifest what we think we want? Maybe it’s an invitation to look for grace and fall deeper into faith.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Because what if the true reality is that you can’t miss what is meant for you?&nbsp;</p><br><p>As usual, I’m joined by your old friend Georgina El Morshdy in this reflection episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune in now to hear us explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why reflection has the power to create meaning.&nbsp;</li><li>Why meaning ignites a natural source of energy that makes life interesting.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between goals and expectations.&nbsp;</li><li>The art of staying connected to the magic of the moment.&nbsp;</li><li>Suffering as a choice.&nbsp;</li><li>How to use love as a disruptive force in the universe.&nbsp;</li><li>Why reflection helps us integrate life experiences and philosophical concepts.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>A request.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p>How do you navigate life when your reality doesn’t align with your expectations?&nbsp;</p><br><p>February was a month of deep and difficult reflection for me. I found myself revisiting the topic of attachments and expectations - in business, health, and relationships.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In many ways, I’ve been battling with myself as I cultivate the courage to stay connected to the magic of the moment instead of dwelling on the unmet desires of my ego.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I think this is a common dilemma.&nbsp;</p><br><p>What does it mean when we don’t manifest what we think we want? Maybe it’s an invitation to look for grace and fall deeper into faith.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Because what if the true reality is that you can’t miss what is meant for you?&nbsp;</p><br><p>As usual, I’m joined by your old friend Georgina El Morshdy in this reflection episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune in now to hear us explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why reflection has the power to create meaning.&nbsp;</li><li>Why meaning ignites a natural source of energy that makes life interesting.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between goals and expectations.&nbsp;</li><li>The art of staying connected to the magic of the moment.&nbsp;</li><li>Suffering as a choice.&nbsp;</li><li>How to use love as a disruptive force in the universe.&nbsp;</li><li>Why reflection helps us integrate life experiences and philosophical concepts.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>A request.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>This episode is a re-run of one of my favorite episodes from the year with my dear friend, mentor, and soul brother - Steve Little.&nbsp;</strong></p><br><p>As I get ready for my yearly reflection, I’ve been going back through old notes and episodes to revisit key principles that made the most profound shifts in the way I live my life. Steve’s perspectives on “efforting” led to some pretty important breakthroughs, hence it’s being shared again.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Steve is the CEO and managing partner of Zero Limits Ventures, a M&amp;A advisory, investment banking, and consulting firm. Steve has been an entrepreneur for 45 years. He sold his first business when he was just 15 for $250k. Since then, Steve has architectured 6 nine-figure tech exits and led the M&amp;A teams for 9 tech acquisitions.&nbsp;</p><br><p>What I love most about Steve is the way he integrates energetics into the way he operates in business. Steve reminded me that there are unconscious forces that create our reality every day. As you’ll hear in the episode, Steve takes ownership of his own energetic blueprint by continuously doing the inner work to clear his system of what’s no longer aligned.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“So my experience has been: the clearer I can be, the easier this is.”</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Tune in now to hear Steve and I explore:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Steve’s story of supporting AIDS orphans in Africa.&nbsp;</li><li>Working with the foremost authority of the Hoʻoponopono ancient Hawaiian healing method.&nbsp;</li><li>Self-forgiveness.&nbsp;</li><li>Cleaning up what’s within you.&nbsp;</li><li>How to create your dream life on a piece of paper.&nbsp;</li><li>Finding the balance between leaning back &amp; leaning in.&nbsp;</li><li>Why you need to continue to seek.&nbsp;</li><li>What Steve does when things aren’t working.&nbsp;</li><li>The Starbucks story of universal timing.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“You have the power to manifest anything you want, you just have to put it out there.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>This episode is a conversation with Victoria Rose - a writer, teacher, and traditional birth witness, pre- and perinatal educator, and birth consultant.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Through her work, Victoria helps people access their birth memories, offering deep healing for individuals on the path to greater mental, emotional, and physical health.</p><br><p>Here’s a beautiful website excerpt highlighting her body of work.&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“Memory may be more accurately defined as not what we remember but rather what we don’t remember.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>This month was one of the more potent months of change, which as always, creates the most potent containers for reflection. I moved out of my home in San Diego and decided to move to Costa Rica with my beloved, got rid of 90% of my stuff, and embarked on a deep mental, emotional, and physical cleanse in preparation for an indigenous medicine ceremony in the jungles this month.&nbsp;</p><br><p>2023 has been a crazy year for me, and one of the things I love most about my monthly reflections is that you guys get to watch the journey unfold alongside me. I never really know what I’m going to talk about each month, as the lessons and perspectives are always inspired by what’s present in the conversation. In fact, recently, the reflection episodes have been as much for myself to process all of the change that’s been happening in my life as they are to share useful perspectives.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But with that said, I hope this episode finds you well. I hope it inspires the courage to follow your heart no matter where it takes you. I hope it inspires the courage to trust in forces unseen. I hope it inspires you to remember the home within yourself.&nbsp;</p><br><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>The last time I was with Panache was right before the COVID lockdowns. The time I spent with him as he launched his book, You Are Enough - Revealing the Soul to Discover Your Power, Potential, and Possibility, changed my life profoundly.

This incredible human has appeared on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday, he’s collaborated with Deepak Chopra and has worked with everyone from Neale Donald Walsh to Joe Dispenza, Brian Weiss, Ram Dass, James Redfield, and other luminaries in the fields of spiritual and personal development.&nbsp;</p><br><p>When Panache called me out of the blue a few months back and proposed we record another episode together, I said yes in a heartbeat. And after we finished recording the episode, I knew why he called. When the student is ready, the teacher appears. His perspectives were the messages I needed to hear. It was a reminder of infinite possibilities and to trust in a greater unfolding. It was a reminder to surrender deeply into the flow of life and create from a space of deep knowing.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This conversation is almost 1.5 hours long (twice the length of our normal episodes) and FULL of gold.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I realized that joy is about working through your emotions, releasing your emotions, and also being intentional about your joy.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Loka Pandya is a motivational speaker, serial entrepreneur, a DeLorean collector, and a passionate life enthusiast who’s dedicated to deep healing work.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In his work, Loka is on a mission to awaken the inner child joy that lies within all of us. Loka’s passion for igniting joy began after his mother died when he was 13. Almost overnight, Loka transformed from a highly competitive, ambitious teen into a young man who wanted to help others feel better.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Over time, his overgiving character put him on a rollercoaster of extreme highs and deep lows. The pattern was exhausting. Loka succeeded in making the world happy, but inside, he was sad. In response, Loka threw the kitchen sink at his healing journey, trying every tool and modality he could get his hands on.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This inner journey taught Loka that healing depended on his ability to feel his true emotions. He also learned you could intentionally trigger joy and choose how to feel.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Today, Loka empowers people to tap into their childlike joy so they can experience more love and happiness. This episode is a heartwarming dive into Loka’s personal journey of healing, along with tools and tips for igniting joy and reconnecting with your inner child.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The more play you put in, the happier, more joyous you're going to be, and be intentional about it.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Exploring your relationship with receiving.</li><li>What happens when the high highs and low lows become exhausting?&nbsp;</li><li>Loka’s “folder of joy.”&nbsp;</li><li>Reframing triggers into initiations.&nbsp;</li><li>Pausing to create space for a response.&nbsp;</li><li>Reclaiming control of your power to choose.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of healing through baby steps.&nbsp;</li><li>Doing the one thing each day that helps you heal.&nbsp;</li><li>Staying grounded through a routine.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/lokapandya/</li><li>Loka@lokapandya.com.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Your intimate relationship is the most profound mirror for you to actually connect to that foundation of love within yourself.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>The last time I recorded a reflection episode was at the end of August - just after returning from Burning Man.

It’s been interesting to see the arc of change over a two-month window - proof that many shifts can happen when you move through life consciously and with vulnerability and authenticity.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I often remind myself that I’m the common denominator in all areas of my life. How I show up in one context impacts how I show up in others. In this episode, you’ll hear how I’ve used my relationship and creativity as dojos - places to practice peeling off masks and connecting more intimately with the authentic me. I’ve also been exploring the power of surrendering to a vision bigger than myself - a practice vastly different from how I used to operate in business. These intentions became catalysts for a lot of growth, as you’ll hear in the episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As always, I hope that this episode will inspire a practice of reflection in your life.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I master my fate and captain my soul… I need to take radical responsibility for my life. I can create anything that I want out of my life.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Like many entrepreneurs, Andrew Kroeze achieved massive success through the hustle-and-grind culture only to find the tactic wasn’t sustainable.&nbsp;</p><br><p>After experiencing burnout, Andrew had no choice but to reinvent himself. But the changes didn’t fully stick. The next time he crashed, Andrew woke up in a hospital bed. This time, Andrew knew he needed to make more permanent changes to his life and business.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I master my fate and captain my soul… I need to take radical responsibility for my life. I can create anything that I want out of my life.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Like many entrepreneurs, Andrew Kroeze achieved massive success through the hustle-and-grind culture only to find the tactic wasn’t sustainable.&nbsp;</p><br><p>After experiencing burnout, Andrew had no choice but to reinvent himself. But the changes didn’t fully stick. The next time he crashed, Andrew woke up in a hospital bed. This time, Andrew knew he needed to make more permanent changes to his life and business.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Vulnerability to me is an expensive gift, and you shouldn't expect it from cheap people.”</em></p><br><p><em>“I mean, the quality of your life comes down to the quality of relationships. If you want good quality relationships, you have to be able to embrace vulnerability and that uncertainty sometimes.”</em></p><br><p>Jayson Gaignard is a rare breed of entrepreneurial leader because of his willingness to be visible when vulnerable. The old way to succeed was to wear a mask and pretend to have it all figured out. Jayson challenges that paradigm and proves how being vulnerable with others about your struggles, hardships, and even failures can lead to greater levels of impact in a world hungry for connection &amp; belonging.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Named one of Forbes’s “Top Networkers to Watch” because of his ability to curate highly coveted events, Jayson is the founder of Mastermind Talks - an exclusive community that serves as a container of support, inspiration, and deep belonging for entrepreneurs who value impact and collaboration alongside business. Jayson has been featured in the likes of Entrepreneur, Lifehacker, and Tim Ferriss’s Tools of Titans.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Jayson believes entrepreneurs are “community made” rather than self-made. But what does it take to be a person who can guide, support, and empower others? In this episode, Jayson discusses some of the teachers who have taught him on his journey. Teachers include his daughter, who Jayson explains pulls him into his highest expression, as well as the power of vulnerability to encourage self-love and celebrate your unique beauty while honoring others.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Jayson is a man who cares deeply about people and the land while doing his best. As you’ll hear in this episode, when people are mission-driven, they can sometimes be clouded in doubt. This conversation is a beautiful example of what’s possible when you leverage community and vulnerability as mirrors for your highest expression.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>The quality of your relationships is indicative of the quality of your leadership.&nbsp;</li><li>How tormentors can become mentors.&nbsp;</li><li>Exploring the mirrors of your relationships.&nbsp;</li><li>An artist who uses business as a canvas.&nbsp;</li><li>Leveraging empathy as an edge.&nbsp;</li><li>Finding purpose.&nbsp;</li><li>Reclaiming the freedom we lost.&nbsp;</li><li>How Jayson models self-love to his daughter.&nbsp;</li><li>The pattern of being hard on yourself.&nbsp;</li><li>Allowing yourself to know you are enough and you’ve done enough.&nbsp;</li><li>The art of shifting from DOing to BEing.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Check out Mastermind Talks &gt;&gt;&gt; <a href="https://www.mmt.community" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.mmt.community</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/JaysonGaignard" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/JaysonGaignard</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Doing the work is the journey of questioning. Once you question and you become aware, it's making choices.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Over the last four years, I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and thousands of hours on my inner work journey. I chose to turn myself into my own research project, and this time in my life has been a period of massive growth, reflection, and expansion.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, I’ve paired up with my beautiful life partner Gina to open up about the rock bottom experiences that brought us to our knees, and how we used those experiences as catalysts to shift the way we lived our lives.</p><br><p>The journey of increasing awareness is potent, powerful, and profound. Eventually, you uncover the underlying factors that are unconsciously creating your reality. It’s the work that returns you to your personal power. It’s a rich inquiry that elevates your ability to choose differently and shift the course of your life for good.</p><br><p>I hope this week’s episode is a glimpse of the ecstatic level of fulfillment possible when you choose to face your fears and lean into the wisdom of what wants to be shown.</p><br><p><strong><em>“Underneath those symptoms there are unresolved feelings. There's trapped energy in the body, there are beliefs, there's unconscious programming that is not in alignment with what you consciously want.”</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Why hormonal imbalance became a gateway for Gina to go inwards.&nbsp;</li><li>When stress-relieving techniques aren’t effective</li><li>We’ve normalized living with chronic stress.&nbsp;</li><li>How compartmentalizing is a coping strategy.&nbsp;</li><li>Looking inward to discover hidden beliefs.&nbsp;</li><li>The ego death from coming clean to my ex</li><li>Why the secret to healing is to understand your nervous system responses.&nbsp;</li><li>Creating the space for a proactive response.&nbsp;</li><li>The liberation that comes from looking at discomfort.&nbsp;</li><li>Information about a LIVE group healing experience.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you’re interested in being supported by myself and a team of veterans as you learn to do the inner work in a safe community setting, join our October Cohort of Precision Emotional Healing.</p><br><p>Head to www.liber8.health/</p><br><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

Once you question and you become aware, it's making choices.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Over the last four years, I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and thousands of hours on my inner work journey. I chose to turn myself into my own research project, and this time in my life has been a period of massive growth, reflection, and expansion.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, I’ve paired up with my beautiful life partner Gina to open up about the rock bottom experiences that brought us to our knees, and how we used those experiences as catalysts to shift the way we lived our lives.</p><br><p>The journey of increasing awareness is potent, powerful, and profound. Eventually, you uncover the underlying factors that are unconsciously creating your reality. It’s the work that returns you to your personal power. It’s a rich inquiry that elevates your ability to choose differently and shift the course of your life for good.</p><br><p>I hope this week’s episode is a glimpse of the ecstatic level of fulfillment possible when you choose to face your fears and lean into the wisdom of what wants to be shown.</p><br><p><strong><em>“Underneath those symptoms there are unresolved feelings. There's trapped energy in the body, there are beliefs, there's unconscious programming that is not in alignment with what you consciously want.”</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Why hormonal imbalance became a gateway for Gina to go inwards.&nbsp;</li><li>When stress-relieving techniques aren’t effective</li><li>We’ve normalized living with chronic stress.&nbsp;</li><li>How compartmentalizing is a coping strategy.&nbsp;</li><li>Looking inward to discover hidden beliefs.&nbsp;</li><li>The ego death from coming clean to my ex</li><li>Why the secret to healing is to understand your nervous system responses.&nbsp;</li><li>Creating the space for a proactive response.&nbsp;</li><li>The liberation that comes from looking at discomfort.&nbsp;</li><li>Information about a LIVE group healing experience.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you’re interested in being supported by myself and a team of veterans as you learn to do the inner work in a safe community setting, join our October Cohort of Precision Emotional Healing.</p><br><p>Head to www.liber8.health/</p><br><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Even though on paper I had all the markings of someone successful, I didn't feel it. That really confused me.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As a 250th episode special, I wanted to share all the lessons I’ve learned from investing multi-six figures and thousands of hours into my personal journey to create a life of alignment and liberation that I feel so grateful to be living today.&nbsp;</p><br><p>When I started this podcast, I had no idea about the journey I was about to take. The journey to internal liberation isn’t easy.&nbsp;My life has changed entirely since releasing my first episode in 2017, but the path to this point has been riddled with the most extreme highs and lows.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The game of BEING is confusing because it’s filled with guesswork, detours, and setbacks.</p><br><p>But hindsight brings clarity.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As I reflect over the past eight years (and the thousands of dollars and hours I invested), I’m clear on what worked and what didn’t. I’m now confident about what levers to pull and where to focus my time, energy, and resources so I can keep experiencing unshakeable confidence, freedom, clarity, and self-love.&nbsp;</p><br><p>No one should have to invest as much as I have into healing our minds, bodies, and souls in order to experience wholeness. I believe it’s our birthright to feel good about who we are. We shouldn’t be living in a constant state of anxiety or fear. We should be learning how our nervous systems are wired from an early age so we can properly tend to it as we grow through life. It’s why I’ve decided to share my journey so far with you -- with no stones left unturned – so that you can see how a dedication to the “inner work” can lead to permanent shifts in your mental &amp; emotional well-being.</p><br><p><strong><em>“The game of doing is very different from the game of being. Doing is about achievement, external validation, and making strides and progress in the world. The game of being is about the journey to your enoughness. It's the journey of self-love.”</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>How a book transformed my perspective of what’s possible.&nbsp;</li><li>My quest to seek missing feelings through entrepreneurship - only to fall short of what I wanted.&nbsp;</li><li>How a drive to infuse meaning &amp; purpose into my side hustle birthed Stay Grounded.&nbsp;</li><li>Forcing change through the game of DOing.&nbsp;</li><li>External success will only take you so far.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“You never want to be the person that accepts your situation and complains when you get there.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>It was such a buzz to record this episode live at the <em>Feast it Forward</em> Festival.

Kosha Dillz shares with us the pressure of having to wow the crowd within 30 seconds to keep them hooked. In this episode, we talk a lot about the art of being comfortable with being uncomfortable and how the freestyle world inspires you to believe in yourself.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Here’s a flavor of what we explore together.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How Kosha Dillz got started.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning how to create a show that grabs people in.&nbsp;</li><li>Cultivating a relationship with fear.&nbsp;</li><li>Embracing synchronicities.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to believe in yourself.&nbsp;</li><li>Proving yourself to others.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to love yourself.&nbsp;</li><li>Sticking with the dream and knowing it’s going to happen.</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>I love to talk with people who love what they do.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“This month has been doing the work, having the journeys, experiencing the energetic upleveling, and clearing my own beliefs about myself and the way the world is supposed to be and stepping into my power as a creator.”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>Welcome to my June reflection. This one’s a big one! Hands down, June 2022 has been one of the most powerful months of growth and evolution I’ve ever experienced in the 4-5 years of my choosing to go inwards.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This month, I learned to look at my life with radical responsibility for everything that’s showing up - no matter how incredible or challenging. I got to remember that I am the cause of all that I see and that insight gifted me a new lens to look at the world.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Thanks to powerful healing experiences with gifted mentors and deep conversations with myself, I’ve been able to uplevel in so many ways. I’m grateful for all the mirrors that showed up in June, each of them empowering me to step out of my own way and reclaim the knowing that I am the creator in my life.&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“How can we remove our limitations and the belief systems and the stories that stop us from truly actually owning our power? Because our power is that we are powerful creators. We can have anything we want.”</em></p><br><p>June turned out to be a massive turning point in my own journey. I learned how much you can grow when you choose to pay attention to the right things.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As usual, your old friend Georgina El Morshdy is here to hold space and help guide the conversation to ensure you get the most out of it. Here’s an overview of the topics and insights we explored:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How Steve Little (a recent guest) inspired my June uplevel.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to play in the realm of energetics.&nbsp;</li><li>Deep healing of my entitlement wound.&nbsp;</li><li>How I subconsciously create realities I don’t want.&nbsp;</li><li>Removing the things that keep me from Creator Mode.&nbsp;</li><li>Tools for shifting into empowered states of being.&nbsp;</li><li>The power to choose how you feel.&nbsp;</li><li>Growing through the power of conscious relationships.&nbsp;</li><li>Understanding that my soul chose to experience liberation.&nbsp;</li><li>How I integrate the lessons that life is teaching me.&nbsp;</li><li>Finding your edge and settling in to play.&nbsp;</li><li>And more!&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p><em>“Our souls are here to expand and we call in that expansion in the form of partners or challenges. Life keeps meeting you to the challenge that allows you to rise.&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>I’m so grateful for this podcast and I’m grateful for you. I’m so grateful that you’ve given me this space to share my journey and it lifts my heart to know my sharing is activating and inviting something in you.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode is a reminder of how powerful we all are - even in a challenging world that can leave us feeling unsure and uncertain. When you remember that YOU are the creator in your life, everything changes.

I learned how much you can grow when you choose to pay attention to the right things.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As usual, your old friend Georgina El Morshdy is here to hold space and help guide the conversation to ensure you get the most out of it. Here’s an overview of the topics and insights we explored:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How Steve Little (a recent guest) inspired my June uplevel.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to play in the realm of energetics.&nbsp;</li><li>Deep healing of my entitlement wound.&nbsp;</li><li>How I subconsciously create realities I don’t want.&nbsp;</li><li>Removing the things that keep me from Creator Mode.&nbsp;</li><li>Tools for shifting into empowered states of being.&nbsp;</li><li>The power to choose how you feel.&nbsp;</li><li>Growing through the power of conscious relationships.&nbsp;</li><li>Understanding that my soul chose to experience liberation.&nbsp;</li><li>How I integrate the lessons that life is teaching me.&nbsp;</li><li>Finding your edge and settling in to play.&nbsp;</li><li>And more!&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p><em>“Our souls are here to expand and we call in that expansion in the form of partners or challenges. Life keeps meeting you to the challenge that allows you to rise.&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>I’m so grateful for this podcast and I’m grateful for you. I’m so grateful that you’ve given me this space to share my journey and it lifts my heart to know my sharing is activating and inviting something in you.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode is a reminder of how powerful we all are - even in a challenging world that can leave us feeling unsure and uncertain. When you remember that YOU are the creator in your life, everything changes. I hope this episode reminds you of that.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Georgina’s <a href="https://www.instagram.com/georginaelmorshdy/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/georgina.morshdy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="http://www.findyouryou.co.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a></li><li>Raj’s contact details. <a href="https://www.instagram.com/raj_jana/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://www.rajjana.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“You will find music that will speak to what you are going through at any time in your life.”</em></strong></p><br><p>I recorded this conversation with Christian Swain LIVE at the Feast it Forward Festival. Christian is the founder, producer, and host of the Rock n Roll Archaeology Project. He’s also involved with Pantheon Podcasts. He’s the lead vocalist of Tinman and has been playing with his band for the last 17 years. Christian also describes himself as a political raconteur. As you’ll hear in the show, he has interesting insight on all kinds of topics. It’s one of the things that made this episode so powerful to record.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode was a reminder to me that there’s always a thread to be found in a great conversation. It doesn’t matter who I talk to, there’s always a route back to topics that help us remember who we are. Through these conversations, we get to meet life with presence to connect back with what is - allowing the energy of the moment to inspire everything we do and everything we become.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Tragedy opens up a different part of you in some ways.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Christian dives deep in this episode and shares his heart, his wisdom, and his life. We touch on so many topics, from the climate crisis to Christian’s experience of being involved in a mass shooting. At each stage, we return to the influence of music, how it aids belonging, and the power it holds to help you discover who you are.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune in now to hear Christian and I explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How does music feed your soul?&nbsp;</li><li>Waking up to bigger dimensions of life.&nbsp;</li><li>PTSD from a mass shooting experience.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to move through grief.&nbsp;</li><li>Discovering who you are through music.&nbsp;</li><li>Hearing Pink Floyd’s <em>Dark Side of the Moon</em> for the first time.&nbsp;</li><li>The role forgiveness has played in Christian’s life.&nbsp;</li><li>Climate crisis.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“Art is about pulling out those feelings which are universal of which we all try to hide at one time or another.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Music is a powerful connector.

If you can put it out there and feel it as if it's occurred, it's on its way, it's going to happen.”</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p>My conversation with Steve Little - AKA “The Activator” was the catalyst for some amplified personal growth this month.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Steve is the CEO and managing partner of Zero Limits Ventures, a M&amp;A advisory, investment banking, and consulting firm. Steve has been an entrepreneur for 45 years. He sold his first business when he was just 15 for $250k.

Steve reminded me that there are unconscious forces that create our reality every day. As you’ll hear in the episode, Steve takes ownership of his own energetic blueprint by continuously doing the inner work to clear his system of what’s no longer aligned.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“So my experience has been: the clearer I can be, the easier this is.”</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Tune in now to hear Steve and I explore:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Steve’s story of supporting AIDS orphans in Africa.&nbsp;</li><li>Working with the foremost authority of the Hoʻoponopono ancient Hawaiian healing method.&nbsp;</li><li>Self-forgiveness.&nbsp;</li><li>Cleaning up what’s within you.&nbsp;</li><li>How to create your dream life on a piece of paper.&nbsp;</li><li>Finding the balance between leaning back &amp; leaning in.&nbsp;</li><li>Why you need to continue to seek.&nbsp;</li><li>What Steve does when things aren’t working.&nbsp;</li><li>The Starbucks story of universal timing.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“Inspiration is the universe's pathway to communicate to you.”</em></strong></p><br><p>I love meeting people who are so bold about the role that energy and spiritual conviction play in creation.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“When you're triggered, how the hell is your triggered mind supposed to understand the wisdom of the universe?”</em></p><br><p>This episode is my May reflection. As usual, some BIG stuff has been moving through me. The constant challenges and up-levels result from choosing to walk my own unique path through life. When you’re looking for the lessons and practicing a lifestyle of awareness, it’s impossible to NOT grow.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>But it’s impossible to avoid frustrating setbacks as well! This month, I found myself asking <em>“Why is this happening to me?”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>Do you ever find yourself asking that question? For me, this conversation shows up anytime my life doesn’t match my expectations. For example, when I believe something should have happened faster or when I wish I were further along my path.</p><br><p>In the past, these thoughts would get me in a funk. But because of my steady reflection practice, I know there’s a lesson I need to learn (or an experience I need to have). I’m learning to let go of my own attachments and align with the universe’s timeline rather than my own. After all, just because you received a vision or an idea in a flash doesn’t mean the world is ready for it.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This realization was one of my biggest takeaways from May. I reveal more in this episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“Life is not about trying to not be human. It is to actually embrace our human. It is to be in the human. It is to feel the pain. It is to be with what is happening in the world. It is to truly connect with what is while also remembering that there is a greater plan.”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>As usual, your old friend Georgina El Morshdy is here to hold space and help guide the conversation to ensure you get the most out of it. Here’s an overview of the juicy topics and insights that came up.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How, as a society, we’ve normalized the wrong things.&nbsp;</li><li>Why our individual, reflective work contributes to the evolution of our collective consciousness.&nbsp;</li><li>The impact of big T and little t traumas on our lives.&nbsp;</li><li>The mind can’t have all the answers.&nbsp;</li><li>How we react when things don’t happen as fast as we want them to.&nbsp;</li><li>Reconnecting with our vision.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>‘The big conundrum that I think that I constantly have to be reminded of is just because it's not happening on my timeline. doesn't mean it's not happening in perfect time.”&nbsp;</p><br><p>These monthly reflections are a core element of how I practice a lifestyle of awareness.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Sometimes I come to record these episodes with pages of notes. Other times I have fewer written thoughts but a lot of stuff in the air. Part of staying grounded is my monthly ritual to unpack and process what’s coming up.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“When you place your awareness on your body and on your sensations and allow–through the depth of your presence with that sensation, the sensation actually expands, the sensation deepens and more feminine wisdom is revealed.”</em></p><br><p><br></p><p>As human consciousness evolves, we’re beginning to discover the true power of energetics as a creative and manifesting force. In a world where masculine energy has dominated for millennia, the rise of the divine feminine opens a new gateway for conscious leadership.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>As a result, more people are getting inspired to understand the role of feminine energy and embodiment as a pathway to freedom, fulfillment, and happiness.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest is the founder of <em>The Way of Devotion</em>, the incredible <strong>Nina Lombardo</strong>.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In her work as a teacher, mentor, and artist, Nina supports women in embodying their most authentic spiritual and sexual expressions. Through workshops, retreats, and private mentoring, she provides women with somatic-based tools to embody their love and deepen their capacity for intimacy and connection, so they can create the lives and relationships they yearn for.</p><br><p>I was drawn to Nina because, for me, she’s done the work to integrate both masculine and feminine energies within herself. I can feel it in her expression and her presence. It’s one of the attributes that makes Nina an exceptional leader in the art of polarity, devotion, authentic expression, and yearning.</p><br><p><em>“Devotion is really the marriage of love and commitment. It's becoming the embodiment of love because there is something that you love.”</em></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Understanding feminine energy &amp; embodiment.&nbsp;</li><li>Becoming aware of our numbness and why we’re afraid to feel.&nbsp;</li><li>Why our authentic expression requires an attunement to love.&nbsp;</li><li>Polarity and the exquisite dance between the masculine &amp; the feminine.&nbsp;</li><li>Understanding how devotion transcends service.&nbsp;</li><li>Calling more love, intimacy, and devotion into your work and relationships.</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>I’ve come to learn that mastering the art of living is to master the art of polarity. When you understand how masculine and feminine energies dance together, you can create more intimacy, devotion, and love in your relationships, work, art, and more.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode is a powerful gateway for demystifying the feminine and understanding the potency of embodiment. If you care about conscious leadership, you won’t want to miss it!&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“The feminine is the energy and the content and the stuff of life… I also refer to the feminine as love or this equality of yearning in the universe that propels creation, the feminine is creation.”</em></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Check out <a href="https://wayofdevotion.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.wayofdevotion.com</a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/wayofdevotion/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></li></ul><p><br></p><br><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“When you place your awareness on your body and on your sensations and allow–through the depth of your presence with that sensation, the sensation actually expands, the sensation deepens and more feminine wisdom is revealed.”</em></p><br><p><br></p><p>As human consciousness evolves, we’re beginning to discover the true power of energetics as a creative and manifesting force. In a world where masculine energy has dominated for millennia, the rise of the divine feminine opens a new gateway for conscious leadership.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>As a result, more people are getting inspired to understand the role of feminine energy and embodiment as a pathway to freedom, fulfillment, and happiness.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest is the founder of <em>The Way of Devotion</em>, the incredible <strong>Nina Lombardo</strong>.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In her work as a teacher, mentor, and artist, Nina supports women in embodying their most authentic spiritual and sexual expressions. Through workshops, retreats, and private mentoring, she provides women with somatic-based tools to embody their love and deepen their capacity for intimacy and connection, so they can create the lives and relationships they yearn for.</p><br><p>I was drawn to Nina because, for me, she’s done the work to integrate both masculine and feminine energies within herself. I can feel it in her expression and her presence. It’s one of the attributes that makes Nina an exceptional leader in the art of polarity, devotion, authentic expression, and yearning.</p><br><p><em>“Devotion is really the marriage of love and commitment. It's becoming the embodiment of love because there is something that you love.”</em></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Understanding feminine energy &amp; embodiment.&nbsp;</li><li>Becoming aware of our numbness and why we’re afraid to feel.&nbsp;</li><li>Why our authentic expression requires an attunement to love.&nbsp;</li><li>Polarity and the exquisite dance between the masculine &amp; the feminine.&nbsp;</li><li>Understanding how devotion transcends service.&nbsp;</li><li>Calling more love, intimacy, and devotion into your work and relationships.</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>I’ve come to learn that mastering the art of living is to master the art of polarity. When you understand how masculine and feminine energies dance together, you can create more intimacy, devotion, and love in your relationships, work, art, and more.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode is a powerful gateway for demystifying the feminine and understanding the potency of embodiment. If you care about conscious leadership, you won’t want to miss it!&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“The feminine is the energy and the content and the stuff of life… I also refer to the feminine as love or this equality of yearning in the universe that propels creation, the feminine is creation.”</em></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Check out <a href="https://wayofdevotion.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.wayofdevotion.com</a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/wayofdevotion/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></li></ul><p><br></p><br><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<h3><strong><em>“I really feel like I'm getting to that point where I now know when something undesirable is happening, like a trigger it's here to teach me something and it's on me. It's my responsibility to understand what that is.”</em></strong></h3><p><br></p><p>This episode is my personal reflection for April 2022. Looking back, April was a very triggering month for me. I had a lot of things happening in my work, my relationships, and my relationship with self. It’s been an emotionally charged month. It was tough navigating everything and the combination of experiences made me feel exposed. In turn, I instinctively sought external validation from those I love.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As I shined the light of awareness on this pattern, I was able to uncover the learning opportunity. I saw the invitation to deepen further into self-love. I heard the call to take responsibility to fill up my own cup. To create internal validation. To know at a deeper level who I am is enough.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It’s been a beautiful journey that’s sparked so much growth - and I can’t wait to share it with you in this episode.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><h4><strong><em>“My mind wants to go out there and create, and it's constantly looking for ways to screw up a good thing, to stay angry, to stay mad because that is familiar.”</em></strong></h4><p><br></p><p>As usual, my good friend and muse Georgina EL Morshdy is here to hold space and guide the conversation. As you’ll hear in the episode, a lot of what I’m processing around validation and perception is something Georgina’s also working on.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The synchronicities are magical.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, Georgina &amp; I explore:</strong></p><ul><li>Listening to others through the lens of presence.</li><li>How I’m deepening into my triggers.&nbsp;</li><li>Conditioning ourselves to find love within.&nbsp;</li><li>How staying grounded connects me with my power.&nbsp;</li><li>Discerning the energy that you’re making decisions from.&nbsp;</li><li>Remembering who I <em>really</em> am.&nbsp;</li><li>Who would you be if you followed your heart &amp; flowed with life?&nbsp;</li><li>Why every emotional experience is an opportunity to learn.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>What I love most about my monthly reflection episodes. It's that the insights I share come from my lived experiences. I'm not planning to have these lessons. I'm not trying to find things to share with you!

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<h3><strong><em>“I really feel like I'm getting to that point where I now know when something undesirable is happening, like a trigger it's here to teach me something and it's on me. It's my responsibility to understand what that is.”</em></strong></h3><p><br></p><p>This episode is my personal reflection for April 2022. Looking back, April was a very triggering month for me. I had a lot of things happening in my work, my relationships, and my relationship with self. It’s been an emotionally charged month. It was tough navigating everything and the combination of experiences made me feel exposed. In turn, I instinctively sought external validation from those I love.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As I shined the light of awareness on this pattern, I was able to uncover the learning opportunity. I saw the invitation to deepen further into self-love. I heard the call to take responsibility to fill up my own cup. To create internal validation. To know at a deeper level who I am is enough.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It’s been a beautiful journey that’s sparked so much growth - and I can’t wait to share it with you in this episode.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><h4><strong><em>“My mind wants to go out there and create, and it's constantly looking for ways to screw up a good thing, to stay angry, to stay mad because that is familiar.”</em></strong></h4><p><br></p><p>As usual, my good friend and muse Georgina EL Morshdy is here to hold space and guide the conversation. As you’ll hear in the episode, a lot of what I’m processing around validation and perception is something Georgina’s also working on.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The synchronicities are magical.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, Georgina &amp; I explore:</strong></p><ul><li>Listening to others through the lens of presence.</li><li>How I’m deepening into my triggers.&nbsp;</li><li>Conditioning ourselves to find love within.&nbsp;</li><li>How staying grounded connects me with my power.&nbsp;</li><li>Discerning the energy that you’re making decisions from.&nbsp;</li><li>Remembering who I <em>really</em> am.&nbsp;</li><li>Who would you be if you followed your heart &amp; flowed with life?&nbsp;</li><li>Why every emotional experience is an opportunity to learn.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>What I love most about my monthly reflection episodes. It's that the insights I share come from my lived experiences. I'm not planning to have these lessons. I'm not trying to find things to share with you! Instead, these growth opportunities show up for me organically. Using the lens of reflection and awareness, I make sure I learn from them.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I hope you find something in here that benefits your lived experiences.&nbsp;</p><br><p><br></p><h4><strong><em>“The only way to actually heal that perception was to fill my own cup up and give myself what I needed instead of seeking it from other people.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Can I love what it is and love it exactly the way it is?”</em></strong></p><br><p>Phoebe Mroczek is my soul sister and one of the most inspiring women I know. She’s been on a relentless pursuit of the greatest levels of love in herself over the past few years and I’ve witnessed her transformation first-hand. Her desire to step into new levels of leadership for herself, her relationship, and her work is so inspiring.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And in this multi-faceted conversation, we explore it all. What does self-love really look like, why we need to befriend the body instead of transcending it, how to accept ALL of life (not just the good bits) - and so much more.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I've been very spiritual, very outside my body which has been great.

As an energetic intelligence leader and a media personality in the consciousness space, Phoebe empowers people to create an incredible life, not just a thriving business. As a curious explorer and recovering perfectionist, she’s traveled to nearly 70 countries on 6 continents, been cage diving with great white sharks, camped in the Serengeti, and motorcycled across 15 countries in Europe.</p><br><p><strong>Tune in now to hear Phoebe and I explore:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>What does a practice of presence look like?&nbsp;</li><li>Converting knowledge into mastery.&nbsp;</li><li>The life-changing impact of getting into the body.&nbsp;</li><li>Re patterning the internal dialogue to empower yourself.</li><li>The potent opportunity for women right now.&nbsp;</li><li>The most beautiful compliment you can give yourself and others.&nbsp;</li><li>The self-love scavenger hunt.</li><li>Questions and tactics for deepening into your self-love journey.&nbsp;</li><li>How relationships hold the power to cultivate deeper levels of self-love.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you’re looking for a shot of inspiration that will connect you back to the truth of who you are, this episode is for you.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“The most important thing that you can ever give another person is your loving presence.”</em></strong></p><br><p>I first met this episode’s guest at a dinner. We had an instant connection that led to a deep spiritual conversation. Since that moment, I’ve been so excited to have Dr. Amy Albright on the show.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Dr. Amy’s audacious ownership of who she is inspires me, and I was curious about how one develops the courage to know themselves so deeply. How do you reach the place of trusting your intuition so fearlessly? How do you live a life fully guided by the wisdom within?&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode is a spiritual journey - almost a 101 for the role of spirituality in these changing times.

Through her unorthodox methods, Dr. Amy guides her clients through extraordinary transformations using her cutting-edge blend of neuroscience, consciousness, personal development, and business success.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As the co-founder of Holon Evolution, Dr. Amy works to reinvent the operating system for leaders, so they can fulfill their life’s purpose and accomplish their soul’s calling. Her work is potent, powerful, and profound.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Our conversation was so rich and delicious. Amy has access to an incredible depth of wisdom and information.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“When we begin to understand that our challenges are there to point us in certain directions so that we will focus on those specific things in our lifetime, then it's exactly what we need to be working on.”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>I love having previous guests back on the show. The new conversation reminds me how far I’ve come in my own journey of awareness. I’ll always remember the first time I met Ron Baker because until that moment, I knew nothing about the concept of an inner child.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Ron was one of the first teachers that taught me to go within for the answers, the awareness, and the healing. His impact on me was profound. In this conversation, we pick up the theme of the inner child and expand it to embrace the emerging self.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“When we begin to understand that our challenges are there to point us in certain directions so that we will focus on those specific things in our lifetime, then it's exactly what we need to be working on.”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>I love having previous guests back on the show. The new conversation reminds me how far I’ve come in my own journey of awareness. I’ll always remember the first time I met Ron Baker because until that moment, I knew nothing about the concept of an inner child.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Ron was one of the first teachers that taught me to go within for the answers, the awareness, and the healing. His impact on me was profound. In this conversation, we pick up the theme of the inner child and expand it to embrace the emerging self. We explore the intense wisdom that your soul’s curriculum has as you navigate this incarnation on earth. We talk about Ron’s new book and how it’s been inspired by his soul.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Financially happy is a philosophy or a state of being. It’s this idea that you can be both happy and wealthy now.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As a society, we’ve guided ourselves into a challenging relationship with money. Money is the thread that flows through EVERYTHING. It’s the ultimate connector that ties us all together. Due to the way society is structured, most of us can’t live without money! Yet, we decided to make money an emotionally charged taboo.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And it’s disempowering us.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest - Finnian Kelly - is here to offer up a new perspective on money and wealth-creation. His own life experiences have taught him how to combine money with spirituality - so you can live a more intentional life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Finnian calls this philosophy Financially Happy, and in this episode, he shows you how you can choose this way of being for yourself.</p><br><p><strong><em>“Whenever someone says they don’t care about money, they care about money more than anyone else.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Finnian Kelly is the creator of the Financially Happy movement, a world-renown keynote speaker, and an Intentional Living Guide. He’s built and excited two multi-million-dollar businesses in the financial industry as well as running a private wealth management company that managed $100s million. He’s appeared on Sky Business and Ten’s morning shows as a financial expert. He was also an Undercover Angel in the popular National Geographic series. Dubbed the Business Mystic, Finnian helps people feel connected with their money so they can be intentional and live in the now - one breath at a time.</p><br><p>In this incredible episode, Finnian and I explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>How to transform your relationship with money</li><li>Empowering women around money to heal the divine feminine wound.&nbsp;</li><li>The reason financial freedom is a dangerous goal to have.&nbsp;</li><li>The concept of money as a magnifier.&nbsp;</li><li>Using money as a tool to identify and heal personal pain and trauma.&nbsp;</li><li>Tapping into heart wisdom to live a wealthier life.&nbsp;</li><li>Why you need to focus on your feelings.&nbsp;</li><li>The shift you experience when you live from a place of love, NOT fear.</li><li>What’s the spiritual purpose of creating more wealth?</li><li>And more…</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you’re challenged by money and financial matters create a trigger that disrupts your spiritual path, this episode is for you. By the end of this deep-dive conversation, you’ll create an opportunity for yourself to feel excited and energized by money.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Check it out.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“Money on itself is not evil. Money is not amazing. Money is just a connector, it’s just energy. We put our own energy onto it, and that determines how it works for us.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>How to contact Finnian&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Discover how to be Financially Happy at <a href="http://www.financiallyhappy.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.financiallyhappy.com</a></li><li>Learn more about Finnian’s story at <a href="http://www.finniankelly.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.finniankelly.com</a>&nbsp;</li><li>Email Finnian at Finnian@finniankelly.com&nbsp;</li><li>Follow Finnian on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thefinniankelly/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Financially happy is a philosophy or a state of being. It’s this idea that you can be both happy and wealthy now.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As a society, we’ve guided ourselves into a challenging relationship with money. Money is the thread that flows through EVERYTHING. It’s the ultimate connector that ties us all together. Due to the way society is structured, most of us can’t live without money! Yet, we decided to make money an emotionally charged taboo.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And it’s disempowering us.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest - Finnian Kelly - is here to offer up a new perspective on money and wealth-creation. His own life experiences have taught him how to combine money with spirituality - so you can live a more intentional life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Finnian calls this philosophy Financially Happy, and in this episode, he shows you how you can choose this way of being for yourself.</p><br><p><strong><em>“Whenever someone says they don’t care about money, they care about money more than anyone else.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Finnian Kelly is the creator of the Financially Happy movement, a world-renown keynote speaker, and an Intentional Living Guide. He’s built and excited two multi-million-dollar businesses in the financial industry as well as running a private wealth management company that managed $100s million. He’s appeared on Sky Business and Ten’s morning shows as a financial expert. He was also an Undercover Angel in the popular National Geographic series. Dubbed the Business Mystic, Finnian helps people feel connected with their money so they can be intentional and live in the now - one breath at a time.</p><br><p>In this incredible episode, Finnian and I explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>How to transform your relationship with money</li><li>Empowering women around money to heal the divine feminine wound.&nbsp;</li><li>The reason financial freedom is a dangerous goal to have.&nbsp;</li><li>The concept of money as a magnifier.&nbsp;</li><li>Using money as a tool to identify and heal personal pain and trauma.&nbsp;</li><li>Tapping into heart wisdom to live a wealthier life.&nbsp;</li><li>Why you need to focus on your feelings.&nbsp;</li><li>The shift you experience when you live from a place of love, NOT fear.</li><li>What’s the spiritual purpose of creating more wealth?</li><li>And more…</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you’re challenged by money and financial matters create a trigger that disrupts your spiritual path, this episode is for you. By the end of this deep-dive conversation, you’ll create an opportunity for yourself to feel excited and energized by money.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Check it out.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“Money on itself is not evil. Money is not amazing. Money is just a connector, it’s just energy. We put our own energy onto it, and that determines how it works for us.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>How to contact Finnian&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Discover how to be Financially Happy at <a href="http://www.financiallyhappy.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.financiallyhappy.com</a></li><li>Learn more about Finnian’s story at <a href="http://www.finniankelly.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.finniankelly.com</a>&nbsp;</li><li>Email Finnian at Finnian@finniankelly.com&nbsp;</li><li>Follow Finnian on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thefinniankelly/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“it's a new experience of learning to live with my full body and accessing intuition and connecting with truths that are present inside my body and my whole soul, my everything.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>February was a month of potent growth for me. As I explore my emotional triggers to lean deeper into my healing journey, I’ve been able to integrate aspects of my shadow and expand my knowing of who I am.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Looking back, February was about subconsciously living through the lens of full-body leadership.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This looked like making decisions and moving through life with my whole body - not just my mind. It meant leveraging the wisdom of the heart, soul, gut, and sacrum in addition to my intellect. This shift in being has felt so powerful.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Experiencing a full-body life has exposed me to expanded realities where everything is magnified and on fire. I’m excited to share these experiences with you in this week’s reflection episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I want that full-body life. Where everything is just on fire and everything is just alive and magnified.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As usual, your old friend Georgina is here to hold space for us as we navigate all the highs and lows of what was a powerful month.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune in to hear us explore:</strong></p><ul><li>Full body leadership and accessing the wisdom of all of you.&nbsp;</li><li>Sparking growth through the quest for expansion.</li><li>Healing the entitled victim.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>An example of how your childhood experiences drive your adult beliefs and mindsets.</li><li>Understanding where you’re the common denominator in your triggers.&nbsp;</li><li>What does it take to be radically honest with your truth so you can heal?&nbsp;</li><li>How self-soothing can heal the inner child.&nbsp;</li><li>Everything is happening for me.&nbsp;</li><li>Healing through dreams.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Full body leadership inspires all areas of your life - your relationships, business, the pursuit of art and more. Through this leadership approach, you create an opportunity to access the infinite wisdom that is ALL of you. In turn, you can expand, grow, and lean into the deepest levels of impact and fulfillment.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I’m excited to share more about this principle in this week’s powerful reflection episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“All my energy centers are just lined up and I just feel this clarity as a result.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Raj’s details&nbsp;</li><li>Georgina - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/georgina.morshdy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FB</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/georginaelmorshdy/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“it's a new experience of learning to live with my full body and accessing intuition and connecting with truths that are present inside my body and my whole soul, my everything.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>February was a month of potent growth for me. As I explore my emotional triggers to lean deeper into my healing journey, I’ve been able to integrate aspects of my shadow and expand my knowing of who I am.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Looking back, February was about subconsciously living through the lens of full-body leadership.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This looked like making decisions and moving through life with my whole body - not just my mind. It meant leveraging the wisdom of the heart, soul, gut, and sacrum in addition to my intellect. This shift in being has felt so powerful.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Experiencing a full-body life has exposed me to expanded realities where everything is magnified and on fire. I’m excited to share these experiences with you in this week’s reflection episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I want that full-body life. Where everything is just on fire and everything is just alive and magnified.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As usual, your old friend Georgina is here to hold space for us as we navigate all the highs and lows of what was a powerful month.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune in to hear us explore:</strong></p><ul><li>Full body leadership and accessing the wisdom of all of you.&nbsp;</li><li>Sparking growth through the quest for expansion.</li><li>Healing the entitled victim.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>An example of how your childhood experiences drive your adult beliefs and mindsets.</li><li>Understanding where you’re the common denominator in your triggers.&nbsp;</li><li>What does it take to be radically honest with your truth so you can heal?&nbsp;</li><li>How self-soothing can heal the inner child.&nbsp;</li><li>Everything is happening for me.&nbsp;</li><li>Healing through dreams.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Full body leadership inspires all areas of your life - your relationships, business, the pursuit of art and more.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Our ego was created to protect us. It comes up as a protection mechanism.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Part of our journey through life is to learn to navigate and work with the ego. The ego is a powerful force that can keep us trapped in a victim mindset, unconscious ways of being, and stories and narratives that aren’t conducive to the way we want to live. As a result, it’s tempting to try to ‘kill’ the ego.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But what if a more powerful path is to learn how to befriend it.</p><br><p>In this episode, I’m talking with Rob Sirstins. Rob is a coach and teacher who helps people find their warrior within so they can change the narrative in their own heads and get on the path of their fullest potential. He’s also a published author whose latest book <em>Ego of The Warrior, </em>empowers people to partner with their ego instead of trying to fight it.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I read the book, it greatly impacted my life, and I’m pumped that you can now tap into Rob’s brilliance through this episode.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“We hear all the time. We need to kill the ego. That's just not possible. What I learned is I want to partner with it.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>I’ve known Rob for a number of years now. He’s a dear friend and we attend many of the same healing communities together. Rob inspires me because he’s so deeply committed to the work. He’s someone who took his healing journey into his own hands - despite the challenges he’s faced.&nbsp;</p><br><p>He was abandoned as a child, he experienced racism and a rock bottom that almost drove him to take his own life. His courage to discover who he really is created a space where the past no longer controlled his future. Today, Rob is a fierce leader who empowers others to claim their fullest potential.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune into this episode to hear Rob and I explore:&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Understanding the origin of the victim mindset.&nbsp;</li><li>Why our egos keep us trapped in disempowering realities.&nbsp;</li><li>Finding an awareness that dismantles the victim mentality.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of having people call you out on the things you can’t see.</li><li>Why self-love is a fundamental aspect of dismantling the victim.&nbsp;</li><li>Why your identity fears self-forgiveness.&nbsp;</li><li>Developing tools to navigate your ego.&nbsp;</li><li>Asking for help.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Tune in now to discover some practical tips and suggestions - inspired by Rob’s personal experiences - that will help you dismantle your victim mindset and learn to befriend your ego.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“It’s funny how our ego will hold on to the old stories.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.robsirstins.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.robsirstins.com</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/rsirstins" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/rsirstins</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/@robsirstins" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/@robsirstins</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

Stuart Sovatsky was a guest speaker and he blew my mind. When he spoke, EVERYONE listened to his every word.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Stuart’s career has spanned over 4 decades. His experience and wisdom in the relationship, intimacy, and erotic art space makes me want to bow. He’s been a marriage counselor for 44 years and was the first choice to co-direct Ram Dass’s prison ashram, and first in the US to bring yoga to incarcerated youth and the homeless mentally-ill in the 1970s. He’s served at the office of the Dalai Lama and has taught spiritual practices and modalities across the world. He’s the author of multiple books including <em>Advanced Spiritual Intimacy </em>and <em>Words From The Soul. </em>He’s practiced kundalini yoga for 24 years and is the director of two psychotherapy clinics in the San Francisco Bay Area. He teaches at JFK University and the California Institute of Integral Studies.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“It's very grounding to take the mundane aspects of life and not be bored by them.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>The way Stuart moves through life is so inspiring because he instills the concept of devotion and tantra at the core of everything.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Your shadow work, your mindset, those subconscious programs, is what governs everything in your body. It's the control center. It's the thermostat to the house.”</em></p><br><p>Shadow work is a huge focus in my life right now and I’m excited to share more in the podcast. In these shadow themed episodes, I’m bringing on people to talk about their experiences of different shadow emotions.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, Juanique Roney (aka @gutsy_mom) shares her experience with grief.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Juanique is a soul sister to me and one of the most inspiring and powerful women I’ve ever met. She’s had a traumatic five years after her husband Tristin was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2017. He died last July. They had two young children.</p><br><p>The way Juanique chose to navigate loss, death, and grief is one of the most powerful and inspirational things I’ve ever witnessed.&nbsp;</p><br><p>She chose to grieve for her husband before he died by willingly diving into her fears, pain, and loss. Her strength is breathtaking. Somehow, she was able to alchemize her pain into a new kind of love for Tristan. One that’s empowered their children to write a story about loss that’s unconventional and beautiful.&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“Loving yourself is the biggest service you can give to the world, because then you become a mirror for someone else to do the work.”</em></p><br><p>As well as supporting her kids, Juanique’s journey through grief has allowed her to serve her thriving community in the most beautiful way. As the gutsy_mom, Juanique shows people how to lean into their bodies so they can live their healthiest, most vibrant lives. Through her wellness clinic, she teaches people to be their own self-healing superheroes.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune into this episode to hear Juanique’s story and more…&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Inspiring the courage to dive into the pain of shadow work.&nbsp;</li><li>How desperation empowered Janique to heal her stress.&nbsp;</li><li>Softening the walls around your heart.&nbsp;</li><li>Admitting the things that you’re afraid to admit.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between transactional and unconditional love.&nbsp;</li><li>Breaking down your heart walls.&nbsp;</li><li>Tackling the global shadow.&nbsp;</li><li>Empathogens. Manifesting medicines that help people do true healing.&nbsp;</li><li>Addiction as a tool to push down, self-soothe, and numb out the shadow.&nbsp;</li><li>How the fear of changing your life stops you from changing.&nbsp;</li><li>Setting boundaries and navigating the response.</li><li>How Juanique’s kids have experienced life after their dad’s death.&nbsp;</li><li>The meaning of rainbows.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p><em>“Self love is not selfish love, it's self love. And when you fill your love cup, you can then give what's overflowing.”</em></p><br><p>Shadow work is confronting and painful. But if you allow yourself to sink in, you experience the flip side of healing, love, and freedom.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Juanique’s story is a beautiful example of finding beauty in pain. Tune in now and you’ll see that there are rainbows inside of grief.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/gutsy_mom/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/gutsy_mom/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.mygutsyhealth.com/podcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Gutsy Health Podcast.</a></li></ul><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

They had two young children.</p><br><p>The way Juanique chose to navigate loss, death, and grief is one of the most powerful and inspirational things I’ve ever witnessed.&nbsp;</p><br><p>She chose to grieve for her husband before he died by willingly diving into her fears, pain, and loss. Her strength is breathtaking. Somehow, she was able to alchemize her pain into a new kind of love for Tristan. One that’s empowered their children to write a story about loss that’s unconventional and beautiful.&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“Loving yourself is the biggest service you can give to the world, because then you become a mirror for someone else to do the work.”</em></p><br><p>As well as supporting her kids, Juanique’s journey through grief has allowed her to serve her thriving community in the most beautiful way. As the gutsy_mom, Juanique shows people how to lean into their bodies so they can live their healthiest, most vibrant lives. Through her wellness clinic, she teaches people to be their own self-healing superheroes.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune into this episode to hear Juanique’s story and more…&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Inspiring the courage to dive into the pain of shadow work.&nbsp;</li><li>How desperation empowered Janique to heal her stress.&nbsp;</li><li>Softening the walls around your heart.&nbsp;</li><li>Admitting the things that you’re afraid to admit.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between transactional and unconditional love.&nbsp;</li><li>Breaking down your heart walls.&nbsp;</li><li>Tackling the global shadow.&nbsp;</li><li>Empathogens. Manifesting medicines that help people do true healing.&nbsp;</li><li>Addiction as a tool to push down, self-soothe, and numb out the shadow.&nbsp;</li><li>How the fear of changing your life stops you from changing.&nbsp;</li><li>Setting boundaries and navigating the response.</li><li>How Juanique’s kids have experienced life after their dad’s death.&nbsp;</li><li>The meaning of rainbows.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p><em>“Self love is not selfish love, it's self love. And when you fill your love cup, you can then give what's overflowing.”</em></p><br><p>Shadow work is confronting and painful. But if you allow yourself to sink in, you experience the flip side of healing, love, and freedom.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Juanique’s story is a beautiful example of finding beauty in pain. Tune in now and you’ll see that there are rainbows inside of grief.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/gutsy_mom/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/gutsy_mom/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.mygutsyhealth.com/podcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Gutsy Health Podcast.</a></li></ul><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

I want to emphasise that I’ve been fully supported through my journey with mentors and coaches. Shadow work is deep and can be very uncomfortable. It pulls you through emotions and memories that can be hard to hold (which is why I <em>always</em> recommend you do this work with the right support).&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Shadow work has sparked exponential shifts for me, but it’s been confronting. This work sits at the intersection of tension, conflict, and resistance. It requires you to step into the discomfort and explore the darker side of your psyche. Where you feel entitled. Where you switch on victim mode. Where you’re attached to egoic beliefs about yourself.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Shadow work is a practice to feel feelings you don’t want to feel. You cycle through pain and triggers.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But when you surrender to the pain, confusion, and chaos into love, a new edge appears. It’s the edge of infinite potential.</p><br><p>And it’s at this edge that your quality of life expands exponentially.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Feeling the feeling does not make the story true. Feeling the feeling that charges the story does not make the story true.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>The personal development world is very comfortable embracing modalities that spark an upward spiral.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I don’t think I’ve found any greater amount of growth than I’ve found as a result of choosing to look into the shadow.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Do you have emotions that you struggle to feel? Is there a dark shadow to your character that you’re reluctant to explore? Have you noticed an undercurrent of anger, shame, or guilt that bubbles to the surface every now and again?&nbsp;</p><br><p>If so, you’re human.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Most of us struggle to navigate and hold emotions associated with our shadow. As a society, we’ve labelled feelings such as rage or grief ‘bad’ and as such, we’re reluctant to feel them.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The shadow can feel like a scary place to go. But when you have the courage to look inside, you tap into the most profound opportunity to release, heal, and step into a more authentic version of who you are.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, I’m talking with the founder of Visionary Alignment, Jason Ayers. As an executive coach, Jason is gifted at guiding entrepreneurs to navigate their darker emotions to find more authenticity. His ability to hold people in their darkness continues to blow me away. It’s a reflection of who he is as a man, a husband, father, and business owner. He’s done the work (and continues to do so) and is a role model for others willing to step into the abyss.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Your unwillingness to feel anger, for example, mutes your ability to feel the other emotions.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In this episode, Jason shares the story of how he reclaimed himself through an acknowledgement of anger. As a society, we label anger as bad, but like every emotion, it has utility. For Jason, anger was a form of protection that was concealing much deeper feelings of isolation, hurt, and powerlessness from a childhood experience.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>We also explore…</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why we are so afraid of our shadow.</li><li>Alchemizing feelings of resentment into compassion.&nbsp;</li><li>Redefining anger.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between shame and guilt.</li><li>What we can learn from the root of Jason’s anger.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Why forgiveness can become a form of spiritual bypassing.&nbsp;</li><li>How shadow work elevates self-awareness.&nbsp;</li><li>Discovering the gold that lies inside the hard stuff.&nbsp;</li><li>Inviting compassion by asking for help.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Developing the capacity to navigate and alchemize ALL our feelings is central to becoming grounded, centered, whole humans.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Jason’s work and story is here to inspire you to feel into your shadow - so that you can ultimately set yourself free. I’m excited to see what this conversation opens up for you.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“When you fully embrace both sides of you — the light and the dark — your capacity grows exponentially.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Website - https://www.visionaryalignment.com</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Good CEOs think their feelings play a role, great CEOs know their feelings drive the ship or drive the bus.”</em></strong></p><br><p>How do you make exceptional decisions? Can you leverage fascination to find your flow? What steps will ignite your mind and intuition to spark creative problem-solving?&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest is Rian Doris - the co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at <em>The Flow Research Collective.</em> Partnering with Steven Kotler (the author of one of my favorite books on flow - Stealing Fire), this potent research and training organization is driven to understand the science behind ultimate human performance so people can walk through life as the very best version of themselves.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I think curiosity can be a really incredibly effective gateway drug into flow and into intrinsic motivation.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Rian’s soul-deep commitment to leadership development as a long-term field of focus has planted him in countless experiences where he’s been able to sharpen his understanding of this crucial field of human evolution. After a near-fatal head injury when he was just 13, Rian experienced “post-head injury malaise”, which hampered his teens with chronic fatigue, amnesia, and depression. As a result, he was forced to give up sports and instead focus on academia and entrepreneurship.&nbsp;</p><br><p>What followed is a multi-faceted career that put Rian shoulder-to-shoulder with best-selling authors, pioneering neuropsychiatrists, and world experts in peak performance. As a result, Rian developed a rich understanding of what makes people show up as their best.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune into this episode to hear Rian and I explore:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>What role do curiosity, fascination, awe, and wonder play in creating a fulfilling life.&nbsp;</li><li>How to stop fear overriding your intrinsic motivation.</li><li>Why apathy is a bigger danger than fear.&nbsp;</li><li>How task orientation drastically enhances performance in sport.&nbsp;</li><li>What’s on the spectrum of decision-making.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between type 1 and type 2 decisions.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of stepping away before making a decision.</li><li>The role of surrender when solving problems.&nbsp;</li><li>Feelings as powerful data points in the decision-making process.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ol><p><br></p><p>The human capacity is exponential. The question is, are we equipping and nurturing ourselves to perform at our peak - or are we squandering the inherent skill sets and talents that allow us to perform in a peak, optimal way?&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode exposes our options for making exceptional decisions and creatively solving problems. Rian is incredible in conversation, super smart (he graduated top of his class in Philosophy at Trinity) and engaging, this episode is here to show you how you can leverage the potency of flow to perform at your peak.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Check it out.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Problem definition is one of the most critical skills within all of business.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Flow Research Collective Radio</li><li>Flow Research Collective</li><li>Zerotodangerous.com</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

As a result, he was forced to give up sports and instead focus on academia and entrepreneurship.&nbsp;</p><br><p>What followed is a multi-faceted career that put Rian shoulder-to-shoulder with best-selling authors, pioneering neuropsychiatrists, and world experts in peak performance. As a result, Rian developed a rich understanding of what makes people show up as their best.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune into this episode to hear Rian and I explore:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>What role do curiosity, fascination, awe, and wonder play in creating a fulfilling life.&nbsp;</li><li>How to stop fear overriding your intrinsic motivation.</li><li>Why apathy is a bigger danger than fear.&nbsp;</li><li>How task orientation drastically enhances performance in sport.&nbsp;</li><li>What’s on the spectrum of decision-making.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between type 1 and type 2 decisions.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of stepping away before making a decision.</li><li>The role of surrender when solving problems.&nbsp;</li><li>Feelings as powerful data points in the decision-making process.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ol><p><br></p><p>The human capacity is exponential. The question is, are we equipping and nurturing ourselves to perform at our peak - or are we squandering the inherent skill sets and talents that allow us to perform in a peak, optimal way?&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode exposes our options for making exceptional decisions and creatively solving problems. Rian is incredible in conversation, super smart (he graduated top of his class in Philosophy at Trinity) and engaging, this episode is here to show you how you can leverage the potency of flow to perform at your peak.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Check it out.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Problem definition is one of the most critical skills within all of business.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>Flow Research Collective Radio</li><li>Flow Research Collective</li><li>Zerotodangerous.com</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I knew what I wanted, and I was so afraid that I wasn't going to get it.

It’s been a spectrum of highs and lows. I’ve experienced some of my biggest challenges, but in the process, I was able to feel a depth of love and connection that I’ve never been able to touch before.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If this reflection inspired something in you, please let me know.

Welcome to my 2021 reflection - a culmination of hours of intentional reflection to extract and share the lessons and insights that life has been teaching me.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune in to hear a deep-dive account of all my highs and lows and discover how these experiences led to a lot of healing, growth, feeling, expansion, and love.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This is one of my favorite episodes to record and a tangible representation of my commitment to living a lifestyle of awareness. I hope this episode inspires you to create your own 2021 reflection. If you want to understand my process for creating this reflection, you’ll want to check out last week’s episode (#211), where I reveal all my secrets!&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Purpose is not found in what you do, purpose is found in who you are.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As usual, my dear friend Georgina El Morshdy is here to hold space and guide us as we navigate this conversation into all the events, challenges, celebrations, and inspirations that made my 2021 a year I’ll never forget.</p><br><p><strong>Here are some of the key takeaways you’ll hear us discuss:&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>How my breaking open earlier in the year invited deep connection.&nbsp;</li><li>The lesson of living an inspired life rather than hustling to be an inspiration.&nbsp;</li><li>The joy of finding a deeper sense of self.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to trust that everything is happening FOR you.&nbsp;</li><li>The secret to getting what you really want.&nbsp;</li><li>What I learned about cultivating energetically sound endings.&nbsp;</li><li>What are we robbing ourselves from by keeping one pinky on the shore?&nbsp;</li><li>The role symbology played in my year.&nbsp;</li><li>What I learned about crafting a lifestyle of awareness.&nbsp;</li><li>Why does the universe love us so much?&nbsp;</li><li>How I stayed grounded in 2021.&nbsp;</li><li>And more!&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“Don't lean back, lean in—lean into all of this.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>I’m so grateful for the man I’ve become thanks to the life I’ve been blessed to live in 2021. It’s been a spectrum of highs and lows. I’ve experienced some of my biggest challenges, but in the process, I was able to feel a depth of love and connection that I’ve never been able to touch before.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If this reflection inspired something in you, please let me know.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I would say mindfulness, as a practice, as a whole, is about waking up to the true experience of life.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Sara Raymond was in her early 30s when she realised she was drifting through her life aimlessly. Up until this point, her life had been guided by what she felt she ‘should’ do. The feeling of being in the status quo inspired Sara to reinvent her life. This feeling was the beginning of The Mindful Movement.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Sara founded The Mindful Movement in 2016 with a desire to inspire others to live mindful, fulfilled lives. Sara is passionate about self-healing movement practices. Through her work, she combines her skills of hypnotherapy, meditation, pilates, and yoga to help others build confidence in their body and release stress, anxiety, and emotional blocks. Sara has also guided 100,000s of people through mindful practices on her YouTube Channel and in her private practice.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Underneath the fear is our unconscious beliefs.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In this conversation, we explore the power of mindfulness to ignite presence. I also loved hearing Sara share about the role her son has played in the development of her business by helping her start her YouTube channel.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Here’s an overview of what else we talked about.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ol><li>Waking up and recognizing that you’re living in the status quo.&nbsp;</li><li>The work to connect with safety in your heart.&nbsp;</li><li>How contrast helps us feel the beauty of life.</li><li>How other people’s feelings spark our own emotional responses.&nbsp;</li><li>Sara’s definition of mindfulness.&nbsp;</li><li>Where does resistance come from and does it have utility for humans?&nbsp;</li><li>Cultivating the courage to decide.&nbsp;</li><li>Education for the next generation.&nbsp;</li><li>And more...</li></ol><p><br></p><p>This was a candid conversation that inspired me to open up vulnerably about my journey over the past 18 months too. If you’re ready to live a life of desires instead of ‘shoulds’ and you’re curious to know what lies on the other side of tough decisions, this episode is for you.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“We need to have struggles and challenges to make the amazing experiences in our life really stand out and be amazing.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>The Mindful Movement - <a href="https://themindfulmovement.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://themindfulmovement.com</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I would say mindfulness, as a practice, as a whole, is about waking up to the true experience of life.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Sara Raymond was in her early 30s when she realised she was drifting through her life aimlessly. Up until this point, her life had been guided by what she felt she ‘should’ do. The feeling of being in the status quo inspired Sara to reinvent her life. This feeling was the beginning of The Mindful Movement.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Sara founded The Mindful Movement in 2016 with a desire to inspire others to live mindful, fulfilled lives. Sara is passionate about self-healing movement practices. Through her work, she combines her skills of hypnotherapy, meditation, pilates, and yoga to help others build confidence in their body and release stress, anxiety, and emotional blocks. Sara has also guided 100,000s of people through mindful practices on her YouTube Channel and in her private practice.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Underneath the fear is our unconscious beliefs.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In this conversation, we explore the power of mindfulness to ignite presence. I also loved hearing Sara share about the role her son has played in the development of her business by helping her start her YouTube channel.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Here’s an overview of what else we talked about.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ol><li>Waking up and recognizing that you’re living in the status quo.&nbsp;</li><li>The work to connect with safety in your heart.&nbsp;</li><li>How contrast helps us feel the beauty of life.</li><li>How other people’s feelings spark our own emotional responses.&nbsp;</li><li>Sara’s definition of mindfulness.&nbsp;</li><li>Where does resistance come from and does it have utility for humans?&nbsp;</li><li>Cultivating the courage to decide.&nbsp;</li><li>Education for the next generation.&nbsp;</li><li>And more...</li></ol><p><br></p><p>This was a candid conversation that inspired me to open up vulnerably about my journey over the past 18 months too. If you’re ready to live a life of desires instead of ‘shoulds’ and you’re curious to know what lies on the other side of tough decisions, this episode is for you.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“We need to have struggles and challenges to make the amazing experiences in our life really stand out and be amazing.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>Contact Info:</strong></p><ul><li>The Mindful Movement - <a href="https://themindfulmovement.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://themindfulmovement.com</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I started to recognize that the human system, the rhythm of a human is: grow and then rest, repair, grow again.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Rewind to 2012, and Dawn Breslin’s life broke apart. She’d been at the peak of her career - enjoying red carpet events, speaking on some of the biggest stages in the world, and authoring bestselling books.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Then suddenly, the success was gone. A series of unavoidable life events escalated at the same time leaving Dawn emotionally, energetically and financially bankrupt to the tune of £100k. What in the moment felt like an identity death gently evolved into a rebirth. In a moment of surrender, Dawn tapped into the harmonizing effect of nature. This experience became a trigger that empowered Dawn to swap debt, burn out and energetic depletion to one of vibrant health, balance and radiant wellbeing.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Now, Dawn empowers others to <strong>come into a rhythmic cycle and be potent in life by dancing the giving and receiving cycles. </strong>In this episode, Dawn shares how her Harmonizing Alignment Process guides us to heal the inner child, tap into the rhythm of human, and cultivate a fierce love for ourselves.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“To be really potent, it's often a cyclical dance between receiving and then doing.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Dawn Breslin is a leading light in the field of coaching and personal transformation. Through her work as a TV &amp; Radio presenter, best-selling Hay House author, inspirational keynote speaker and media consultant she has inspired thousands of individuals to heal, re-energise and transform their lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune into this episode to hear Dawn and I explore the following:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>How Dawn’s life fell apart in 2012.&nbsp;</li><li>Dropping into presence and finding the flow of life.&nbsp;</li><li>Tapping into the awe in front of our eyes.&nbsp;</li><li>How a flower transformed Dawn’s life and created a rebirth.&nbsp;</li><li>The systems in nature that can help with our psychology.&nbsp;</li><li>The role of inner child work in giving &amp; receiving.&nbsp;</li><li>Developing the inner dialogue to move through life with grace.</li><li>The power of re-energizing work.&nbsp;</li><li>Using boundaries to protect the self.&nbsp;</li><li>Loving yourself into the fullness of your potential.&nbsp;</li></ol><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“The connection with the inner child means that the energy work can be done, because you've got self-honor in place.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In a world that’s prioritized doing over being for so long, Dawn’s story is a reminder of the power of finding a rhythm between the two.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Dawn’s story is so empowering and her presence is passionate. I learned so much from this episode and I’m sure you’ll feel the same way when you check it out.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Contact Info</strong></p><ul><li>Website: <a href="http://www.dawnbreslin.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Www.dawnbreslin.com</a></li><li>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dawnbreslinuk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/dawnbreslinuk/</a></li><li>Instagram: ​​instagram.com/dawnbreslinuk/</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

She’d been at the peak of her career - enjoying red carpet events, speaking on some of the biggest stages in the world, and authoring bestselling books.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Then suddenly, the success was gone. A series of unavoidable life events escalated at the same time leaving Dawn emotionally, energetically and financially bankrupt to the tune of £100k. What in the moment felt like an identity death gently evolved into a rebirth. In a moment of surrender, Dawn tapped into the harmonizing effect of nature. This experience became a trigger that empowered Dawn to swap debt, burn out and energetic depletion to one of vibrant health, balance and radiant wellbeing.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Now, Dawn empowers others to <strong>come into a rhythmic cycle and be potent in life by dancing the giving and receiving cycles. </strong>In this episode, Dawn shares how her Harmonizing Alignment Process guides us to heal the inner child, tap into the rhythm of human, and cultivate a fierce love for ourselves.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“To be really potent, it's often a cyclical dance between receiving and then doing.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Dawn Breslin is a leading light in the field of coaching and personal transformation. Through her work as a TV &amp; Radio presenter, best-selling Hay House author, inspirational keynote speaker and media consultant she has inspired thousands of individuals to heal, re-energise and transform their lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Tune into this episode to hear Dawn and I explore the following:&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>How Dawn’s life fell apart in 2012.&nbsp;</li><li>Dropping into presence and finding the flow of life.&nbsp;</li><li>Tapping into the awe in front of our eyes.&nbsp;</li><li>How a flower transformed Dawn’s life and created a rebirth.&nbsp;</li><li>The systems in nature that can help with our psychology.&nbsp;</li><li>The role of inner child work in giving &amp; receiving.&nbsp;</li><li>Developing the inner dialogue to move through life with grace.</li><li>The power of re-energizing work.&nbsp;</li><li>Using boundaries to protect the self.&nbsp;</li><li>Loving yourself into the fullness of your potential.&nbsp;</li></ol><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“The connection with the inner child means that the energy work can be done, because you've got self-honor in place.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In a world that’s prioritized doing over being for so long, Dawn’s story is a reminder of the power of finding a rhythm between the two.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Dawn’s story is so empowering and her presence is passionate. I learned so much from this episode and I’m sure you’ll feel the same way when you check it out.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Contact Info</strong></p><ul><li>Website: <a href="http://www.dawnbreslin.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Www.dawnbreslin.com</a></li><li>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dawnbreslinuk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/dawnbreslinuk/</a></li><li>Instagram: ​​instagram.com/dawnbreslinuk/</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Summary/ Call to Action:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“This past year has been a masterclass in surrender.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>How would you navigate your way through an experience where you lost your core business overnight?</p><br><p>Earlier this year, Dom Quarticcio accidentally sent an email about porn he’d written for his men’s group to his corporate clients.&nbsp;</p><br><p>That email made his reputation toxic to the point that all his contracts were cancelled and deposits were pulled from his bank account.&nbsp;</p><br><p>During a sacred plant ceremony, Dom asked his soul the question. <em>“What the f*ck just happened?”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>The answer was clear, powerful and specific…. <em>“Hey, dude, you said you were really serious about helping 10 million men get on this path. You're straddling the fence and now you have no other choice. And you're welcome.”</em></p><br><p>What happened next is a powerful story of what’s possible when you surrender to the wisdom of your soul and the calling of your heart.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“When you find your center, you no longer have to worry about the tornado. When you got your center, that’s all you need.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Dominick Quartuccio is the founder of The Great Man Mastermind, a series of masterminds for men who are ready to stop lone-wolfing their lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Dom co-hosts <em>The Great Man Within Podcast</em> and is an international keynote speaker on topics centering men’s personal development, such as high-performance habits, designing a purpose driven life and why men need community. He is also the author of two books: Design Your Future and On Purpose Leadership. His work has been featured in the New York Times, on NPR and the TEDx stage.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, Dom and I explore:</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>Learning to surrender so you can co-create with the universe.&nbsp;</li><li>What happened when Dom sent an email about porn to the wrong list.&nbsp;</li><li>How Dom navigates the dance between fear and freedom.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to trust there’s a bigger plan that the universe can see.&nbsp;</li><li>Dom’s experience with Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way.</li><li>The power of clearing your mind through ‘Morning pages”.</li><li>COVID as the great accelerator.&nbsp;</li><li>Getting to the source of what you want to feel.&nbsp;</li><li>Creating safety to allow emotions to be explored.&nbsp;</li><li>The boardroom of emotions &amp; the four steps to emotional fluency.</li><li>And more...</li></ol><p><br></p><p>Dom is always so candid about his journey and his experiences.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“This past year has been a masterclass in surrender.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>How would you navigate your way through an experience where you lost your core business overnight?</p><br><p>Earlier this year, Dom Quarticcio accidentally sent an email about porn he’d written for his men’s group to his corporate clients.&nbsp;</p><br><p>That email made his reputation toxic to the point that all his contracts were cancelled and deposits were pulled from his bank account.&nbsp;</p><br><p>During a sacred plant ceremony, Dom asked his soul the question. <em>“What the f*ck just happened?”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>The answer was clear, powerful and specific…. <em>“Hey, dude, you said you were really serious about helping 10 million men get on this path. You're straddling the fence and now you have no other choice. And you're welcome.”</em></p><br><p>What happened next is a powerful story of what’s possible when you surrender to the wisdom of your soul and the calling of your heart.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“When you find your center, you no longer have to worry about the tornado. When you got your center, that’s all you need.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Dominick Quartuccio is the founder of The Great Man Mastermind, a series of masterminds for men who are ready to stop lone-wolfing their lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Dom co-hosts <em>The Great Man Within Podcast</em> and is an international keynote speaker on topics centering men’s personal development, such as high-performance habits, designing a purpose driven life and why men need community. He is also the author of two books: Design Your Future and On Purpose Leadership. His work has been featured in the New York Times, on NPR and the TEDx stage.</p><br><p><strong>In this episode, Dom and I explore:</strong></p><p><br></p><ol><li>Learning to surrender so you can co-create with the universe.&nbsp;</li><li>What happened when Dom sent an email about porn to the wrong list.&nbsp;</li><li>How Dom navigates the dance between fear and freedom.&nbsp;</li><li>Learning to trust there’s a bigger plan that the universe can see.&nbsp;</li><li>Dom’s experience with Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way.</li><li>The power of clearing your mind through ‘Morning pages”.</li><li>COVID as the great accelerator.&nbsp;</li><li>Getting to the source of what you want to feel.&nbsp;</li><li>Creating safety to allow emotions to be explored.&nbsp;</li><li>The boardroom of emotions &amp; the four steps to emotional fluency.</li><li>And more...</li></ol><p><br></p><p>Dom is always so candid about his journey and his experiences. His vulnerability and openness clears the path for others to dive deeper into themselves so they can surrender to what is.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This conversation is a beautiful reminder of the power of surrender. I hope it inspires you to trust that the universe will cv-create with you to achieve your dreams.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“Your soul just doesn’t give a shit about any big plans you have.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“You can be with one person for a lifetime, but within that lifetime, you will have many different relationships with many different contexts throughout that time period.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Because we’re not taught how to craft them, most people are ill-equipped to cultivate great relationships. Most modern relationships don’t model the Disney fairytale fantasy! Instead, we get stuck on codependency and disappointment - leading to relationship deaths, unfulfillment, and painful break-ups.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It doesn’t have to be this way...</p><br><p>If we learn how to create interdependence from a place of individual sovereignty, a relationship can remain satisfying for a lifetime.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you want your relationship to constantly grow, deepen, and last for a lifetime, there’s no better teacher than Andy Drish.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“You can be with one person for a lifetime, but within that lifetime, you will have many different relationships with many different contexts throughout that time period.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Because we’re not taught how to craft them, most people are ill-equipped to cultivate great relationships. Most modern relationships don’t model the Disney fairytale fantasy! Instead, we get stuck on codependency and disappointment - leading to relationship deaths, unfulfillment, and painful break-ups.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It doesn’t have to be this way...</p><br><p>If we learn how to create interdependence from a place of individual sovereignty, a relationship can remain satisfying for a lifetime.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you want your relationship to constantly grow, deepen, and last for a lifetime, there’s no better teacher than Andy Drish. Andy is the one of the few people I trust to help me navigate the art of intimacy and being in a lasting relationship.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“The more I trust myself, the more I listen to myself, the prouder I am of myself.”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>This episode’s guest feels like a soul brother to me.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“The better our boundaries are, the more powerful our presence will be in the world.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>I’m super excited to re-release this incredible conversation I had with Karlee Fain earlier last year. After feeling a strong need to revisit my own boundary setting, I tuned into this conversation and took so many gems from it. Thanks to Karlee’s insights, I found it easier than it may have been to create the right boundaries for me.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Boundaries are a way to create more power in your world. They also help to make relationships deeper, more connected, and safer. Boundaries can also help you to navigate tough conversations making this tool a skill to practice and master.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you feel drawn to practice setting and maintaining energetic and physical boundaries in your life, this episode will help.

As a sought-after live-in coach to A-List celebrities [including Grammy-award winners], Karlee empowers people to get back their precious time and energy.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Boundary settings is a core area of expertise for Karlee and in this episode we explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>How to differentiate between self-love when you need to take time and self-love when you need to do the work.&nbsp;</li><li>The teacup and saucer analogy of boundaries and self-love.&nbsp;</li><li>Why creating boundaries isn’t easy.</li><li>How to know that our boundaries are appropriate.&nbsp;</li><li>How our body tells us that it’s time to set boundaries.</li><li>What are boundaries actually protecting?&nbsp;</li><li>How to determine which values are worth creating boundaries around.&nbsp;</li><li>Why starting with low-risk scenarios is a great way to practice boundary setting.</li><li>How to start being radically honest with yourself.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>How to make friends as adults.&nbsp;</li><li>And more!&nbsp;</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you haven’t already, please subscribe to the podcast to ensure you get notified each time we push a new episode live.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“The truth is heart-centered. The truth just beams from your master source of intelligence, which is your intuition.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Kyle Brown was fully invested in the hustle culture. He played competitive water polo in college and was also a competitive bodybuilder. His lifestyle revolved around pushing and going and everything he did was focused around competition and competing against himself. But that all changed in January 2019 when Kyle got sick to the point of near-death.&nbsp;</p><br><p>He was diagnosed with double pneumonia. He had sepsis too and his organs were shutting down. Until this point, Kyle was a healthy, strong individual who was 5% lean all year around. He didn’t take any kind of pharmaceuticals and he believed mind over matter was enough to push through anything.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Suddenly, Kyle was faced with a situation that his default approach couldn’t solve. He had to surrender and hope that antibiotics would save his life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this moment of surrender, Kyle realized that his striving lifestyle was actually digging a grave. He began asking different questions… Was there a better way to live? In the process, Kyle discovered a new path to health and balance - a journey we explore in this powerful episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The mind serves its purpose but it is not the master communicator, nor the master of intellect.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Kyle Brown has empowered busy entrepreneurs for roughly two decades to break down barriers to achieve physical, mental, and emotional mastery. This is a process he calls Rapid Harmony. World changers, top CEOs, Fortune 500 companies, professional and Olympic athletes, and countless celebrities have worked with Kyle to develop a sustainable, fit, happy, peaceful, aligned and balanced lifestyle. Kyle is also the CEO and creator of FIT 365®, an all-natural, delicious, gourmet meal in a shake.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, Kyle and I explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>What is EFT tapping?</li><li>How healing can happen instantaneously.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of acknowledging your radio station.&nbsp;</li><li>Cultivating self-trust and surrender.&nbsp;</li><li>Kyle’s near-death story and how it transformed his perspective on life.&nbsp;</li><li>How to create a surrendered lifestyle and way of being.&nbsp;</li><li>Healing guilt and shame with EFT.&nbsp;</li><li>Why anger is a key part of any transformation.&nbsp;</li><li>A simple practice for exposing your inner critic.&nbsp;</li><li>Why it’s not selfish to receive.</li><li>And more...</li></ol><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“You have to be pissed off with the status quo enough to want to change.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>If you enjoy this episode, please remember to rate and review the show because it helps other like-minded people find us.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Your inner critic is actually meant to serve your brain.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“When we’re experiencing peace, we’re authentically being who we are.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>I recorded this conversation with spiritual leader Panache Desai just before the first COVID lockdown hit in early 2020. In this interview, Panache gave an insight into his own experience of crisis and suffering and how it created an experience for spiritual and personal growth.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I found Panache’s perspective so empowering. In fact, this conversation became a catalyst for multiple personal events that unfolded during my 2020.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I wanted to share this episode again because of the powerful reminder of the importance of the journey to self-love, acceptance, peace and surrender.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“When we’re experiencing peace, we’re authentically being who we are.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>I recorded this conversation with spiritual leader Panache Desai just before the first COVID lockdown hit in early 2020. In this interview, Panache gave an insight into his own experience of crisis and suffering and how it created an experience for spiritual and personal growth.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I found Panache’s perspective so empowering. In fact, this conversation became a catalyst for multiple personal events that unfolded during my 2020.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I wanted to share this episode again because of the powerful reminder of the importance of the journey to self-love, acceptance, peace and surrender.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“To get to that emotion, to get to that connection that I think we all crave, you have to be a good listener.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Humans have been connecting through stories since time immemorial. There’s something about stories that hook us in, build meaningful connection, and even leave us forever changed.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest has been extracting and telling other people’s life stories for decades. Mike O’Krent’s journey started in 1996 when he spent four years interviewing Holocaust survivors for Steven Spielberg’s <em>Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation</em>.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Loss is part of life and we have to be able to support people better.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>COVID interrupted our lives in so many unexpected ways. As the fallout of the pandemic continues, people across the world are experiencing loss and grief in ways we couldn’t have predicted.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Some people are working through job losses, business closures, and shifts in the way we socialize, travel, and work. Others are navigating the grief of losing a loved one. In this way, COVID has brought the subject of death to the surface. Death is a conversation many of us in the western world are ill equipped to hold, handle, or lead - at work and in our homes.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Serial entrepreneur - Tracey Ivanyshyn - is on a mission to change this way of being by helping founders and companies create a culture that holds space for good grief at work. This work is so important - especially during these times - because companies that can hold space for ‘good grief’ are stronger; as are their people.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Grief is like a wave.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Tracey is the CEO of three companies, a founder and a soul centered leader. She’s also a ‘retired’ social worker, with recent studies in Palliative Care, The Art of Dying and The Grief Journey.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Selected to join Virgin Unite's 100% Human at Work Group, Tracey attends quarterly gatherings with the Virgin Group of Companies. She’s published in their annual Culture Experiments Collection alongside many corporate culture giants - Google, Zappos, Chanel, Unilever, Ideo and NextJump to name a few.</p><br><p>In life, death is the only thing that’s certain, which means grief will tap us all on the shoulder at some point. By empowering people and companies to create sacred space for ‘good grief’, Tracey opens the door to borrow wisdom from death, so we can better live.</p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ol><li>The mindset for shifting the grief conversation.&nbsp;</li><li>Understanding the power of acknowledging loss.&nbsp;</li><li>How to hold and support someone with grief.&nbsp;</li><li>What are meaningful condolences?&nbsp;</li><li>Allowing empathy to guide your response to grief.&nbsp;</li><li>Exploring rituals for grief and remembrance.&nbsp;</li><li>Tangible ways leaders can open up about grief and loss.&nbsp;</li><li>Letters to a 10-year-old.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“The more you can allow yourself to be seen, the more you heal.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>For me, reflection is a practice that sparks accelerated growth. I’ve always got a journal near me because I know the value of capturing insights and deep-dives when they show up. Moving through life with this level of awareness helps me bend time around my learnings and lesson. It’s one of the reasons I can move fast, but with a level of depth that keeps me grounded.&nbsp;</p><br><p>These monthly reflection episodes are quickly becoming some of my favorite to record.&nbsp;</p><br><p>There’s power in riffing off some great questions and weaving out the narrative of my month. I benefit from this practice because it crystalizes my growth. It’s my intention that you get some benefit too by seeing behind the curtain on my life this March.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The voice that I’m supposed to be paying attention to is inspiration and love and joy and passion.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As usual, Georgina El Morshdy is here to interview me. Together, we always stir up some magic!&nbsp;</p><br><p>Georgina is great at holding space and guiding my thoughts down a path that ensure I reveal even more than I captured in my journal beforehand! This episode was no exception. There are some gold insights in this conversation and I’m so excited for you to tune in and extract some inspiration for your own journey.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Here’s a flavor of what we discuss:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>Escaping the cage of emotional blockages.&nbsp;</li><li>Using anxiety as a north star for emotional release and deep healing.&nbsp;</li><li>The story behind my badass turquoise crystal necklace.</li><li>The logical reason why purpose would be a form of pleasure.</li><li>The unexpected role nature can play in your healing journey.&nbsp;</li><li>What becomes possible when you calibrate to truth.&nbsp;</li><li>What happens inside a sweat lodge.</li><li>Permission to be messy and how this infuses freedom into your life.</li><li>Allowing requests for support to become your superpower.&nbsp;</li><li>And more!&nbsp;</li></ol><p><br></p><p>As Q1 comes to an end, I’m so grateful for my journey, all the experiences that have shaped me, and all the incredible people who hold space for me to continue on this path.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I’ve realized that no one needs to walk this healing path alone.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“A legacy is living in a way that the world is better every day, not just when you’ve gone.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>We’re at a pivotal point in human evolution. As a collective, we have huge challenges to solve, and a growing number of people want to make an impact and create a better world.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The desire to make a difference has been at the core of society for millennia. As humans, we instinctively want to help each other. Contribution is one of our core needs. The problem is, change-makers often sacrifice their own well being and needs in the pursuit of helping others that are less fortunate. As “noble” as that sounds, the stark imbalance between the acts of giving and receiving isn’t sustainable.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But what if there was a different way to impact that held space for you - as a change-maker - to live an abundant, fulfilling life?&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest is Lisa Wynn - an award-winning Master Certified Coach (ICF), Certified Wealth Creation Coach, author, speaker, and host of the International No 1 Rated Legacy Creation Podcast.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Lisa is all about changing the paradigm of change-making. Her work focuses on empowering people to create legacies fueled by love, joy, play, and inspiration that can be experienced NOW rather than being left behind when we go, which in turn helps individuals create a much bigger impact in the world. Lisa is here to show us how we can all create a long-lasting difference in the world without sacrificing our own abundance, happiness, and joy.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Her paradigm-shifting work is having a far-reaching impact across the globe, and I can’t wait for you to experience her wisdom in this powerful conversation.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Legacy has to start with your world. You have to get into a space where your world allows you to change the whole world. It’s very simple.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Check out this powerful episode to hear Lisa and I explore:&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong>Key takeaways:</strong></p><ol><li>What is a legacy?</li><li>Why self-love is a key pillar in legacy creation.&nbsp;</li><li>Why we’re afraid to indulge in the things we desire.</li><li>How to connect with your desires.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between change-making and game-changing.&nbsp;</li><li>The dangers of the pedestal of old-paradigm change-making.&nbsp;</li><li>Working with your shadow.&nbsp;</li><li>Why the energy of giving is more important than giving itself.&nbsp;</li><li>Unconditional love and the beautiful story of Lisa’s grandparents.&nbsp;</li><li>And more...</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you want to make a bigger impact while creating a beautifully abundant life that you can enjoy now, this episode is for you. I believe Lisa’s fresh perspective on legacy creation is exactly what we need, and I can’t wait for you to discover it all.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Joy is a pure essence of lightness and celebration that comes from the soul.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“We’ve lowered the bar so much when it comes to what health and wellness should look like, that I think we’ve lost sight of what healthy actually is.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>If you’re an A-Type entrepreneur putting in the work and the hustle to make your business thrive, there’s often a cost. For Chris Michael Harris, that cost was a health crisis. When he hit rock bottom, Chris was a 29-year-old suffering from severe gut issues, which created a knock-on effect emotionally, physically, and mentally. He had deficiencies across the board, he was bedridden, his body was beginning to shut down, and he struggled with suicidal thoughts.&nbsp;</p><br><p>His condition was so bad; doctors told him he’d be gone by 40 - best-case scenario, 50.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>This diagnosis forced Chris to review his lifestyle and his perceptions of what it means to be healthy. Turns out, he’d set the bar extremely low, and looking back over his life, Chris began to see a pattern of environmental factors which stretched right back to birth.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Chris is now 34 and is in the best health of his life after committing to a journey of restoring health. He’s energetic, vibrant, and supported by the data he needs to stay in optimum health.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, Chris reveals what it took to turn his life around - and in the process, challenge what it means to be healthy.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“You can’t achieve optimal health and wellness with an unhealthy gut.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Through online training, memberships, and coaching, Chris Michael Harris helps people become Superhuman Entrepreneurs who are ready to make an impact in whatever it is they do. Chris is also the host of the Startup U Podcast&nbsp;</p><br><p>What’s beautiful about this episode is Chris’ health takes center stage. We used the entire episode to dive deep into Chris’ personal wellness journey - giving you an insight into the recovery that’s possible when you take your health into your own hands.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Together, we explore:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>Factors that contribute to gut health.&nbsp;</li><li>How Chris figured out a plan to get well.&nbsp;</li><li>What inspired Chris to stick with the journey to wellness.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of documenting wins on your journey.&nbsp;</li><li>What health challenges can teach you about life.&nbsp;</li><li>Why your healing journey starts online.&nbsp;</li><li>Healing without financial stress.&nbsp;</li><li>Chris’ top book recommendation.&nbsp;</li><li>Why you want to test your stool.&nbsp;</li><li>And more!&nbsp;</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you’re not feeling as good as you want and you’re ready to raise the bar in your life for what it means to be healthy, this episode is for you.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Fear is at the crux of everything. If you do not know how to master fear, then fear is always going to trick you. That’s because fear is smarter than you and more educated than you.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>The whole world has shifted over the past year. Situations and circumstances have created a whole lot of unexpected change, which in turn has sparked fear.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Fear is an automatic response that keeps us safe. But unchecked and untamed fear will keep you small and hold you back from living an extraordinary life. Fortunately, there are powerful techniques and approaches you can master, which can help you manage your fears - so you can live fearlessly.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode with Rhonda Britten first aired in 2018. In it, Rhonda shares so much gold about how to navigate fear that I wanted to publish it again.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Rhonda Britten is a master life coach, the creator of the Fearless Living Institute, an Emmy-Award winner, and a two-time Oprah guest who’s dedicated her life to teaching people how to master fear.&nbsp;</p><br><p>After a horrific experience at the age of 14, Rhonda spent the next 20 years of her life battling with fear in all its guises. From self-doubt, blame, and addiction, Rhonda struggled to work out life - until she decided to challenge her beliefs about who she thought she was.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This decision opened the door to hope and freedom. It led Rhonda down a path where she’s helped people from across the world break free of indecision - so they can take the risks that lead to an authentic life.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“When I started understanding how fear worked, that really changed my whole life.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Rhonda believes the key to fearless freedom is to understand how your fear works.&nbsp;</p><br><p>When it comes to fear, everyone’s experience is different. We all have our own fear response based on who we are and what’s happened in our lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, Rhonda reveals some simple, yet powerful questions that will enable you to understand what fear is trying to do - and how you can use fear to help you accomplish the things you want.&nbsp;</p><br><p>There is so much gold in this episode.&nbsp; It’s electrifying and inspiring, and I can’t wait for you to get your teeth into this wisdom because I know you’re going to love it.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Fear wants you to respond quickly - it’s fast, it’s reactive.

Here’s a taste of all the standout moments we explore in this episode:</p><p><br></p><ol><li>What Kobe Bryant’s death brought to life for me.&nbsp;</li><li>How Panache Desai created a contrast that deepened my understanding of love.</li><li>Exploring my instinctive response to the arrival of COVID.</li><li>Explaining the role that fear plays in my life.</li><li>Meeting Grace Smith - a perfect example of how my podcast brings key people into my life.&nbsp;</li><li>Self-love lessons after my eight-year relationship ended.</li><li>How I learned to surrender to the feelings in my body.&nbsp;</li><li>Discovering what it takes to choose yourself.&nbsp;</li><li>And more.&nbsp;</li></ol><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“That inner voice sees you, it honors you, it recognizes the true power of you. So don’t ever push that voice away because listening to it is the biggest gift you can give the world.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Presence is the ability to be with what is.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>What happens when you sit in the silence and take quality time to be with yourself? Are you able to be present with everything that is? Or do you get distracted easily and struggle to hold all your emotions?&nbsp;</p><br><p>Most of us weren’t raised to be emotionally intelligent beings. Instead, we were programmed to shut off and push down the harder, ‘socially unacceptable’ feelings. Unfortunately, this strategy doesn’t work. Our challenge is that the body doesn’t forget. Any emotions that you resist get stuck inside of you instead of flowing through you. In turn, suffering and pain begin to build-up, making it harder to feel a sense of peace and safety within.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The good news is you can reverse this programming.&nbsp;</p><br><p>With the help of embodiment practices, you can reclaim and rekindle your personal power by embracing the gift of presence.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tully O’Connor is here to help you navigate that beautiful journey with more grace and ease.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“So much suffering in life comes from resistance to what is.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Tully has a deep passion for helping people explore their potential and live happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tully has an incredible background of training and experience. He started his career as a Physiotherapist in 2011 and has spent the last decade exploring human movement, NLP, leadership development and peak performance. He’s worked with teachers in the fields of Tantra and Depth Psychology, gaining a deep understanding of how our unconscious emotional patterns drive our behaviour and impact on our wellbeing.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Through his coaching programs and retreats, Tully helps men to develop more depth, live a life of purpose, create rich connected relationships and expand their influence as integrated leaders in all aspects of their lives.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Presence is the ability to be with what is.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>What happens when you sit in the silence and take quality time to be with yourself? Are you able to be present with everything that is? Or do you get distracted easily and struggle to hold all your emotions?&nbsp;</p><br><p>Most of us weren’t raised to be emotionally intelligent beings. Instead, we were programmed to shut off and push down the harder, ‘socially unacceptable’ feelings. Unfortunately, this strategy doesn’t work. Our challenge is that the body doesn’t forget. Any emotions that you resist get stuck inside of you instead of flowing through you. In turn, suffering and pain begin to build-up, making it harder to feel a sense of peace and safety within.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The good news is you can reverse this programming.&nbsp;</p><br><p>With the help of embodiment practices, you can reclaim and rekindle your personal power by embracing the gift of presence.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tully O’Connor is here to help you navigate that beautiful journey with more grace and ease.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“So much suffering in life comes from resistance to what is.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Tully has a deep passion for helping people explore their potential and live happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tully has an incredible background of training and experience. He started his career as a Physiotherapist in 2011 and has spent the last decade exploring human movement, NLP, leadership development and peak performance. He’s worked with teachers in the fields of Tantra and Depth Psychology, gaining a deep understanding of how our unconscious emotional patterns drive our behaviour and impact on our wellbeing.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Through his coaching programs and retreats, Tully helps men to develop more depth, live a life of purpose, create rich connected relationships and expand their influence as integrated leaders in all aspects of their lives. He’s also the Co-creator of the Ignite Couples Course with his wife Kaitlin.</p><br><p>In this powerful episode, Tully and I explore:&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>What is presence and why it’s such an important skill to cultivate?&nbsp;</li><li>Tully’s breaking point.&nbsp;</li><li>What is embodiment work and what tools are available to help us navigate this?</li><li>How to create a sense of safety in your body.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of leveraging breathwork to crack you open.&nbsp;</li><li>Tapping into the healing power of inner child work.&nbsp;</li><li>Why a little bit of fear is good for the soul.&nbsp;</li><li>Leveraging vulnerabilty and stories to feel seen.&nbsp;</li></ol><p><br></p><p>If you’re ready for some deep healing and you’re curious about which techniques and practices could help you take your life to the next level, this episode will show you the way.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“All of the things that contribute to a fulfilling life that we all desire, are on the other side of presence.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.tullyoconnor.co" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.tullyoconnor.co</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/tully.oconnor" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/tully.oconnor</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tullyoconnor/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/tullyoconnor/</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Vulnerability is just sharing whatever emotion is in you.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>One of the reasons 2020 has been so unsettling is because safety is a basic human need. When certainty is stripped away, fear bubbles up - causing us to feel as though the world is unsafe.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But despite the chaos, there’s an opportunity to be found in the current climate. When the outside world shifts, we have no option but to dive within. In the process, we can cultivate emotional resilience and tap into a more reliable form of safety… the safety that comes from feeling certain inside your own emotions and your own body.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So if you’re craving a sense of peace in this ‘unsafe’ world, this you’ll want to hear what this week’s incredible guest - Elisabeth Cardiello - has to share.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I like to think of empathy as opening this ocean of space so that you can meet the emotion.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Elisabeth Cardiello is the founder of a coffee company called Caffè Unimatic.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Vulnerability is just sharing whatever emotion is in you.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>One of the reasons 2020 has been so unsettling is because safety is a basic human need. When certainty is stripped away, fear bubbles up - causing us to feel as though the world is unsafe.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But despite the chaos, there’s an opportunity to be found in the current climate. When the outside world shifts, we have no option but to dive within. In the process, we can cultivate emotional resilience and tap into a more reliable form of safety… the safety that comes from feeling certain inside your own emotions and your own body.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So if you’re craving a sense of peace in this ‘unsafe’ world, this you’ll want to hear what this week’s incredible guest - Elisabeth Cardiello - has to share.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I like to think of empathy as opening this ocean of space so that you can meet the emotion.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Elisabeth Cardiello is the founder of a coffee company called Caffè Unimatic.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Death is literally the greatest teacher that we have.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Asher Packman’s life circumstances forced him to rewrite his relationship with death.

His mother died not long after, and while Asher was still deep in grief, he received his own terminal diagnosis.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But in the shadows and the darkness, Asher allowed death to become his most powerful teacher.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“As men, we are so hell-bent on protecting our masculinity because - this runs to the root of an identity - if you’re not a man, then you’re weak, you’re ostracized, you’re not valued. And then, you’re on your own. You’re left to kind of perish. This runs so deeply inside of us that we don’t recognize the game that we’re playing, which is “protect my man card.”</em></strong></p><br><p>You may have noticed a recent trend where people are talking about the patriarchy, toxic masculinity, and what it means to be a man.&nbsp;</p><br><p>These confronting conversations are forcing us to look more closely at masculine and feminine dynamics and the healthy role that each plays in establishing harmonious societies. As a result, there are a growing number of men who are willing to explore the journey required to step into healthier versions of manhood.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As my brother Dominick Quartuccio explains, there are a lot of little boys running around in the bodies of men! The reason? Conventional schooling and society don’t prioritize teaching the transition into healthy masculinity.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But if we’re willing to lean into our vulnerability and listen to our heart’s whispers, not only will we experience profound healing BUT we have an opportunity to unleash the true power of our divine masculine into the world.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The number one fear, like subconscious fear, that is controlling men’s lives that they don’t know about, is this fear of emasculation.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In this powerful conversation, Dominick and I explore what healthy masculinity looks like. We also explore the challenges men face while protecting their ‘man card’. And as you’ll hear, cultivating the confidence to listen to your heart in the midst of all the noise is a powerful way to transform your life - especially during 2020.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Dominick is a leader in the field of healthy masculinity and a man who walks his talk.

But what happens when you overuse your mind and neglect the wisdom in your body and feelings?&nbsp; If you rely on one aspect of self, you’re not coming from a place of wholeness.

From a young age, we’re taught that some feelings are good while others are bad. We’re taught that some emotions are OK to express while others need to be pushed right back down.

But as you’ll hear in this episode, the more you allow, the bigger your capacity becomes for richness, fullness, and unapologetic self-expression.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you choose, your emotions can be your gateway to expression and purpose.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Authenticity is the gateway to our purpose and our highest expression.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As the creator of Sanga and an experienced consciousness practitioner, Kristi Worful is highly skilled at empowering people to explore, work with, and process their full emotional spectrum.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Sanga is like nothing you’ve ever experienced before.

Through her studio in Utah, Kristi guides clients through an immersive sound and visual art experience, which opens the subconscious mind and rewires the brain for creativity and healing.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I'm living a life that I absolutely love. I'm surrounded by a tribe of people that I absolutely love, just simply because I started with the, "What if?"</em></strong></p><br><p>Rob was an abandoned child. As a baby, he was raised by his four-year-old sister until a white, Moron family adopted them both. Raised by a loving family in a predominantly middle-class white community, Rob endured racial abuse. He was spat on, called names, and beat up. The feeling of not belonging would not go away. He eventually found an outlet for his anger and confusion in sport. On the court or field, race and color didn’t matter and after achieving a scholarship to play football at Utah, he thought his life would start working out. But despite being around black people for the first time, he still didn’t fit in.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Rob sunk into a dark depression and began fantasizing about how he’d end his life. He hit rock bottom in his mid-30s when everything fell apart. His marriage ended, his start-up failed, and he was done with the pain. But something told him to put down the gun...&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The life I'm living now, at one time, was just a fantasy.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Rob’s suicide attempt became a powerful catalyst that turned his life around. By deciding he wanted to live, Rob discovered the strength to embrace his blank canvas. At the time, he had no idea who he was, but he was committed to figuring it out.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Trauma makes your scope narrow; healing creates a new perspective that brings forth better opportunities and options. Free of dogma and the need to fulfil family traditions, Rob was able to define himself. In the process, he discovered his dream career, his purpose, and a sense of belonging. Now, Rob is an empowerment coach who works off feeling and intuition; truly identifying where his clients want to go and what they want to accomplish. He calls his work Warrior Work, which is all about identifying who you truly are.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Rob’s story is a powerful reminder that where you start doesn’t have to be where you end up. It’s a story of courage, commitment, and a passion to create an extraordinary life - even when everything is stacked against you. Rob’s story is an inspiration to me, and I’m sure it will be an inspiration to you too.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune in now to hear us discuss:</p><p><br></p><ol><li>What it feels like to NOT belong.</li><li>The catalyst that inspired Rob to change his life.&nbsp;</li><li>How to balance radical self-responsibility with an appreciation of your life’s context.&nbsp;</li><li>Powerful options for letting go of negative energy.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between flow and passion.</li><li>How Rob figured out who he really was.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Rage, the call for equality, and channelling collective anger at these times</li><li>Rob’s definition of purpose.&nbsp;</li><li>Tips for unlayering the need to belong.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ol><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><em>“The moment you give all the accountability away is when you become the victim and then you lose all your power.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.robsirstins.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.robsirstins.com</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/rsirstins" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/rsirstins</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/@robsirstins" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/@robsirstins</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Nobody ever taught me how to be human. They taught me how to be a warrior, they taught me how to be a gladiator, they taught me how to not cry, they taught me how to hurt people. It taught me a lot of stuff in my life. Nobody ever taught me how to be human.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Like you, we’ve been moved and enraged by the racism and brutality experienced by our Black brothers and sisters. To show our support and solidarity with Black America, we’re committed to sharing their voices and stories with you. To kick-start this effort, we’re replaying one of our most popular interviews.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This conversation with Andre Norman first aired in 2019. It’s an incredible story of beating the odds and the system to create extraordinary impact.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The US has one of the largest prison populations in the world with around 1 in 100 Americans in jail. According to 2014 NAACP statistics, African Americans accounted for a disproportionate 34% of the total prison population. It’s a shocking fact that the Black community is incarcerated at more than 5 times the rate of whites.</p><br><p>Andre Norman was one of those statistics.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Rewind two decades and not only was Andre serving a 100-year prison sentence, he also ran all the gang activity in the prison. You could say jail was his destiny. As a kid, he felt unwanted and with the system against him too, Andre never saw his potential. Seeing no other option, Andre followed a life fuelled by drugs, alcohol, depression, self-harming, and ultimately crime.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Prison is supposed to be a correctional facility, but most prisoners aren’t ‘corrected’. Prison rarely changes people at a core level.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Nobody ever taught me how to be human. They taught me how to be a warrior, they taught me how to be a gladiator, they taught me how to not cry, they taught me how to hurt people. It taught me a lot of stuff in my life. Nobody ever taught me how to be human.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Like you, we’ve been moved and enraged by the racism and brutality experienced by our Black brothers and sisters. To show our support and solidarity with Black America, we’re committed to sharing their voices and stories with you. To kick-start this effort, we’re replaying one of our most popular interviews.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This conversation with Andre Norman first aired in 2019. It’s an incredible story of beating the odds and the system to create extraordinary impact.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The US has one of the largest prison populations in the world with around 1 in 100 Americans in jail. According to 2014 NAACP statistics, African Americans accounted for a disproportionate 34% of the total prison population. It’s a shocking fact that the Black community is incarcerated at more than 5 times the rate of whites.</p><br><p>Andre Norman was one of those statistics.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Rewind two decades and not only was Andre serving a 100-year prison sentence, he also ran all the gang activity in the prison. You could say jail was his destiny. As a kid, he felt unwanted and with the system against him too, Andre never saw his potential. Seeing no other option, Andre followed a life fuelled by drugs, alcohol, depression, self-harming, and ultimately crime.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Prison is supposed to be a correctional facility, but most prisoners aren’t ‘corrected’. Prison rarely changes people at a core level. Instead, it compounds their anger, frustration, and trauma, which is what makes Andre’s story of transformation and learning how to be human so remarkable.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Andre was freed after serving 14 years inside and his life today couldn’t be more different. He’s now on a mission to teach individuals and corporations how to turn any situation around and his innovative strategies against gang activity have helped tackle inmate violence and improve correctional facilities across the U.S.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Your rock bottom isn’t your end.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Confidence is simple. It’s not loud, it’s not anything that can be defined by a particular skill or personality type. It’s simply this: the willingness to experience negative emotion.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>How much of your vision for life is impacted by what others say or think about you? How often do you hold yourself back or talk yourself out of taking action because your confidence lets you down?&nbsp;</p><br><p>Who could you be, what could you have, and where would you go if you could create approval from within and create a story that showered you with positivity, freedom, and relentless joy?&nbsp;</p><br><p>This episode’s guest is the incredible Susie Moore - and she dances in this creative, curious space every day! Susie believes that joyful, loving, connected people are POWERFUL. It’s why she says that her only obligation is to have a joyful life - and in doing so, she serves as an example to others of what a joyful life looks and feels like.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you’re ready to be more confident [and feel more joyful in the process], this episode is for you.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“All worthiness is completely fixed, permanent, and undeletable no matter what. So this approval that we are seeking is an illusion.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Susie is a Miami-based life coach and author of <em>Stop Checking Your Likes: Shake Off the Need for Approval and Live an Incredible Life</em>. Susie’s been featured on everything from the Today show, Refinery29, Forbes, Oprah.com and more. She has an infectious personality and a beautiful sense of humor which inspires joy just by being near her. Susie comes with a powerful message that reality is an interpretation and the truth is up to all of us.

We start with excessive ambition and end with a total mental and physical collapse.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Have you noticed that burnout is a badge of honor? As a society, we place a high value on the hard work and the hustle - and if you’re burnt out, by definition you’re a hard worker!&nbsp;</p><br><p>But does burnout deliver the results you want? And is it even the best strategy to create success in business and in life? This episode’s guest says not. After burning out riddled with a collection of physical and emotional symptoms, John Wang realized there had to be a better route to success.</p><br><p>In this episode, John not only shares his story, but reveals the logic and story behind our willingness to burn out - so you can choose a more empowered path to your goals.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“We almost celebrate the word burnout because of our ego. “Look at how hard I work to the point that I get to burnout” - which makes no sense.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>John Wang has been a speaker and an educator for the last 15 years. His passion is coaching high-achieving entrepreneurs and students to create productive, work-life balance systems that are focused on self compassion. In particular, John gets excited about creating tools and systems that empower people to live a balanced life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>John has traveled through over 50 countries and is also the founder of the OneKindness Challenge Movement - where he inspires people to change their life through an act of kindness each day.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this beautiful episode, John and I talk about:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>What does burnout mean?</li><li>Where does the stress that causes burnout come from?&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>How to find the balance between impact and avoiding burn out.</li><li>How to make hard work feel easy.&nbsp;</li><li>How to infuse fulfilment into work you don’t really enjoy.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>John’s four questions for moving through procrastination.&nbsp;</li><li>John’s definition of purpose.</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If your ego has a hustle tendency, but your heart wants more balance, do not miss this episode.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to Stay Grounded Daily, a Tuesday through Friday mini podcast episode to help you stay grounded in truth, love, and possibility during these times of crisis.</p><br><p>In today’s episode, I talk about the first thing anyone must do before they put themselves in a position to grow from their circumstances.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Compassion, connection, and community are the world’s most valuable commodities right now.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>This global pandemic is taking us on a rollercoaster of emotions. Just when we think we’ve found our groove and new normal, another layer slips away - leaving you dancing with a rush of new feelings. This extended time at home is contributing to the spectrum of emotions… tragedy to triumph and pain and joy. But amongst the chaos and turmoil is a chance to tune into yourself. To strip away what no longer serves. To surrender to the flow of what is.</p><br><p>And perhaps even remember what it means to be human.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this beautiful episode, I riff about what it means to be human with my good friend Tim Palladino. It’s crazy that we need to learn how to be human beings, but thanks to a culture of doing and distractions, so many of us are stuck on the hamster wheel. Now we have a time to pause, reflect, and refresh our perspective - and fall in love with life at a whole new level.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I think we are built to be able to get through anything.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Tim Palladino is a social entrepreneur who combines his love of business with serving his community. Tim’s efforts were recognized in 2016 when he was presented with the 40 Under 40 Shaker Award by the Hudson Valley Regional Chamber of Commerce.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tim is also the creator of the “Entrepreneurial Hierarchy of Needs” assessment - a tool that allows business owners to take an objective snapshot of where they rank in the categories of mental and physical health, personal wealth, their relationships, recreation, and their business.</p><br><p>In this deep-dive down the rabbit hole, Tim and I explore:</p><p><br></p><ol><li>Why this is a time of refresh, NOT reset.&nbsp;</li><li>How to navigate the grieving process that coronavirus has created.&nbsp;</li><li>What happens when you go through the ‘storm’ and how it empowers you to go forward.&nbsp;</li><li>Why we have to remember that we are part of nature.&nbsp;</li><li>Why the duration of this crisis is something to feel grateful for.</li><li>The power of expressing your emotions.&nbsp;</li><li>Why it’s dangerous to compare how you’re feeling to anyone else.&nbsp;</li><li>What is self-esteem?&nbsp;</li><li>Why your ego is your property - and how to use it.&nbsp;</li><li>And more.&nbsp;</li></ol><p><br></p><p>This conversation gave me a lot of comfort in this super tough time.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“My definition for hypnosis is ‘meditation with a goal’.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Why do we find it so difficult to do the things we really want to do? Why do we struggle to build the business of our dreams, create the abundance we crave, or attract the perfect partner?&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, you’ll discover that all your beliefs and habits originate in your subconscious. You can’t rewire these parts of you through logic alone, instead, you need to access the power of suggestion - and that’s only available to you when your brain is in a theta state.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It’s for this reason that hypnosis is such a powerful and transformative technique. Guide yourself into theta state and you can dial down fear, and do the deep, inner work that rewires what you believe about yourself. Then anything becomes possible.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And in this important episode, Grace Smith - a pioneer in the hypnotherapy field reveals how. Listen to this episode and not only will you discover the theoretical reasons why hypnotherapy works. You’ll also experience the benefits through a group hypnosis exercise. Don’t miss it!&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“You are the one who is healing yourself - the hypnotherapist is just a guide. You are the power source here. You are the one who is transforming.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>After quitting her chain smoking habit with a single session, Grace Smith instinctively understood the immense power of hypnotherapy. Inspired to learn more about how the mind works, Grace committed to getting certified - then Alex changed her life…</p><br><p>Alex was left paralysed when his convoy was bombed during a UN peace mission in Syria. In Alex’s first hypnotherapy session with Grace, he was able to move his left hand. This was the turning point for Grace and ignited her mission to make hypnosis mainstream.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Today, Grace is an author, speaker, and pioneer in the hypnotherapy field. She works with Fortune 500 CEOs, A-list celebrities, Olympic athletes, and government officials. She’s also the Founder of the world’s #1 provider of hypnosis education, products and services and leads a world-class hypnotherapy certification program.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Crisis is something that we create for ourselves in order to return to authenticity.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>I believe this is the most important episode of Stay Grounded I’ve ever recorded. We’re living in unprecedented times and a new world is unfolding with each new day. Every single one of us are facing new choices and challenges as we adjust to the far-reaching impact of this global pandemic.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Now more than ever it’s important to stay grounded in the things we love and the moments that matter. It’s true that the things, which brought us certainty in the past have been turned upside down. But maybe this crisis offers us a chance to unlock a new sense of meaning. Maybe this crisis will empower us to turn our attention to our inner world so we can find lasting peace and <strong>finally realize that we are enough</strong>. This is Panache Desai’s empowering perspective on crisis. He believes crisis is something we create for ourselves so we can return to authenticity - and in this beautiful episode, Panache explores how we can walk the path to enoughness with grace, surrender, and divinity.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Maturing at the spiritual level means realizing we are the source of every experience that we are having and we’re the source of every feeling.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Panache Desai is a visionary thought leader and a life catalyst in the area of human development. This incredible human has appeared on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday, he’s collaborated with Depak Chopra and has worked with everyone from Neale Donald Walsh to Joe Dispenza, Brian Weiss, Ram Dass, James Redfield, and other luminaries in the fields of spiritual and personal development. Panache is also an international bestselling author and at this pivotal point in human history, he’s published a new book - <em>You Are Enough - Revealing the Soul to Discover Your Power.&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>There’s no question for me that Panache is a source of divine light. I had the privilege of recording this episode in person and the way his energy made me feel was like nothing I’ve experienced before. I guarantee this episode will inspire a new way of thinking; leaving you empowered to approach today’s world with a sense of hope, faith, and peace.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Here’s a taste of what Panache and I discuss:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ol><li>Why Panache’s daughter forced him to surrender to the uncertainty of life - and the beautiful healing journey that happened as a result.</li><li>The priceless gift of struggle and suffering.&nbsp;</li><li>What does peace and surrender feel like?&nbsp;</li><li>What is the essential self?&nbsp;</li><li>Does ego ever help us play at our highest level?&nbsp;</li><li>How can you get to the point where you feel enough?&nbsp;</li><li>What we have to learn about enoughness from squirrels.</li><li>What role does the mind play in helping us live our higher self?&nbsp;</li><li>Tools to make your mind the poster child of the heart.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of the breath.&nbsp;</li><li>The five commitments of enoughness.&nbsp;</li><li>What is presence?&nbsp;</li></ol><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“Enlightenment is your soul giving your ego a hug.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>I’d highly recommend Panache’s book '<em>You Are Enough - Revealing the Soul to Discover Your Power, Potential, and Possibility'</em>.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Care is just a conscious decision that we all have to make.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Bryan Meehan is the CEO of Blue Bottle Coffee - a sustainable, environmentally conscious company that’s transforming coffee experiences across North America and Asia.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As well as achieving huge success as an entrepreneur, what impresses me about Bryan is his ability to devote so much time and attention to his wife and children. A true family man, Bryan is proof that you don’t have to sacrifice relationships for work. Instead, you can create extraordinary success in both.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I discovered one of the reasons Bryan has created harmonious balance in his life is his commitment to caring. The level of care he shows to everything from his colleagues to the environment is inspiring. But dive into his backstory, and you understand why. Raised in a very poor Irish family, both Bryan’s parents experienced tough childhoods. They wanted more for Bryan, and while they didn’t have money, they did have an endless ability to care. This legacy infuses through everything Bryan does, and his belief in the power of caring is crystal clear in this episode. He has a lot to teach us [and we have a lot to learn].&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“You only have one life and I think those who choose to be all family or all work... it’s a shame because you can do both.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Tune into this episode now and discover how caring has the power to change the world. From seemingly insignificant actions [such as bringing a refillable cup when you buy a coffee], to the bigger decisions [such as Bryan’s intentional decision work with Nestle], Bryan’s insights give me hope that caring really does have the ability to help solve a huge spectrum of global problems.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this thought-provoking conversation, Bryan and I dive down a rabbit hole with a multitude of twists and turns.

It’s the catalyst for something truly magical.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>After leaving school at 16, Steve Pirie set himself a target. He wanted to be a millionaire by the time he was 30. But after building a business, which he later sold, Steve didn’t feel the way he expected. He tried building another business, but because it didn’t have enough zeros, he didn’t feel successful. As a result, he spiralled out of control and hit rock bottom leaving him with a choice.

Our world may be more connected than ever, but many of us still feel isolated and disconnected. This problem is compounded by social media. It’s hard to live up to other people’s social highlights.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Inspired by his desire to combat loneliness, Steve’s on a mission to bring people together through live experiences that change their world. From events for entrepreneurs to experiences that connect the young and old; combining willingness with wisdom, Steve is helping people feel less alone.</p><br><p><strong><em>“When you build habits, habits turn into rituals, and rituals turn into who you are.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Steve’s reinvention is the spark behind his passion for creating safe psychological spaces at his live events.

She was desperate to let go of the constant judgements and the feeling of not being good enough, but she couldn’t. Erin turned to countless courses and therapies, but despite changing her habits, thoughts, and actions, nothing seemed to stick.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Then finally, after a 3-year battle with pain and depression, Erin discovered the ‘magic’ formula and got out of her own way. Not only was this formula uncomplicated, but it generated long-lasting results quickly.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As the founder of the MindFix Group, Erin shares her process with entrepreneurs and high-achievers to help them get unstuck. Her secret? Unravelling and rewiring the beliefs that lead to self-sabotage and disappointing results.

In fact, Re is the guy to go to if you want to build an iconic, powerhouse brand to optimize your impact.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As an advocate for authenticity in life and work, Re’s superpower is helping entrepreneurs create a brand that reduces the gap between how you want to be perceived and the reality you project to the world. What’s beautiful if the way Re’s backstory weaves into his work and how his own quest for acceptance, self-love, and the courage to be your authentic self is now inspiring others to seek the same.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this beautiful episode, Re shares the real story behind his decision to show up authentically.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“A lot of the actions that we have to take to be successful aren’t ones that you feel like taking.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Anthony Truck’s entire life has been about beating the odds and redefining what’s possible given the cards he was dealt with. Age just three, Anthony ended up in the foster care system. Given his background, he shouldn’t have achieved the things he did. It shouldn’t have been possible for him to become an NFL athlete or a successful entrepreneur. But Anthony wasn’t willing to settle. Instead, he figured out how to fight for himself and make success his second nature.&nbsp;</p><br><p>His path has been far from easy - especially in his post-NFL days when he lost a lot of the material success he achieved. But with the help of borrowed joy and the resilience to beat the odds, Anthony survived rock bottom to become an international speaker, author, and shift coach. He was even the first former NFL athlete to hit a buzzer on NBC’s American Ninja Warrior.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this powerful episode, Anthony reveals how he fought for his identity and weathered life’s storms, to become the inspirational man he is today.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Who you are is who you are when you aren’t thinking about who you are.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In this episode, Anthony and I talk about:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Anthony’s “Roots &amp; Fruits” analogy - and why you’re the tree, NOT the fruit the tree produces.&nbsp;</li><li>Why emotional control is essential if you want to weather life’s storms.&nbsp;</li><li>How to create safe containers so you can manage curveballs.&nbsp;</li><li>What to do and ask when you’re emotionally triggered.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between a ‘go’ identity and a ‘slow’ identity.&nbsp;</li><li>Why identity is an anchor - and how you can architect yours to lay down strong roots.&nbsp;</li><li>The first time Anthony fought for himself.&nbsp;</li><li>How borrowed joy helped Anthony push off suicidal thoughts when he hit rock bottom.&nbsp;</li><li>How to use borrowed thoughts to help you grow.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you’re ready to defeat the odds and create a 1% life for yourself, this is the episode for you. Check it out.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“At the end of the day, authenticity for a human is just saying, "I’m going to accept exactly who I am.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.anthonytrucks.com" target="_blank">www.AnthonyTrucks.com</a></li><li>facebook.com/anthonytrucks</li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/anthonytrucks" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/anthonytruck</a>s</li><li><a href="https://www.twitter.com/anthonytrucks" target="_blank">https://www.twitter.com/anthonytrucks</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

Instead, he figured out how to fight for himself and make success his second nature.&nbsp;</p><br><p>His path has been far from easy - especially in his post-NFL days when he lost a lot of the material success he achieved. But with the help of borrowed joy and the resilience to beat the odds, Anthony survived rock bottom to become an international speaker, author, and shift coach. He was even the first former NFL athlete to hit a buzzer on NBC’s American Ninja Warrior.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this powerful episode, Anthony reveals how he fought for his identity and weathered life’s storms, to become the inspirational man he is today.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Who you are is who you are when you aren’t thinking about who you are.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>In this episode, Anthony and I talk about:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Anthony’s “Roots &amp; Fruits” analogy - and why you’re the tree, NOT the fruit the tree produces.&nbsp;</li><li>Why emotional control is essential if you want to weather life’s storms.&nbsp;</li><li>How to create safe containers so you can manage curveballs.&nbsp;</li><li>What to do and ask when you’re emotionally triggered.&nbsp;</li><li>The difference between a ‘go’ identity and a ‘slow’ identity.&nbsp;</li><li>Why identity is an anchor - and how you can architect yours to lay down strong roots.&nbsp;</li><li>The first time Anthony fought for himself.&nbsp;</li><li>How borrowed joy helped Anthony push off suicidal thoughts when he hit rock bottom.&nbsp;</li><li>How to use borrowed thoughts to help you grow.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If you’re ready to defeat the odds and create a 1% life for yourself, this is the episode for you. Check it out.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“At the end of the day, authenticity for a human is just saying, "I’m going to accept exactly who I am.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.anthonytrucks.com" target="_blank">www.AnthonyTrucks.com</a></li><li>facebook.com/anthonytrucks</li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/anthonytrucks" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/anthonytruck</a>s</li><li><a href="https://www.twitter.com/anthonytrucks" target="_blank">https://www.twitter.com/anthonytrucks</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“No matter how far or fast you fall, if you’ve helped enough people, you’re always going to come out on top.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Kris Dehnert used to be an opportunist. He was ‘good enough’ to crush a wide range of projects and this skill led him to found eight different businesses in a variety of verticals including fitness, real estate, eCommerce and consulting. Kris made a lot of money driven by the ‘lie’ that he was doing it<em> for the family.&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>Until the day he nearly died...&nbsp;</p><br><p>The year was 2015 and his first daughter was just a few months old. The abdominal pain was so intense, Kris was forced to take refuge on the floor of a Starbucks restroom. But instead of visiting the hospital, Kris decided to return home, take some pills, and carry on. After all, he had meetings booked and deals to close.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>When the pain didn’t subside after a few days, Kris did go to hospital - and the prognosis wasn’t good. He needed emergency surgery and was given a 30% chance of surviving.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Post surgery, Kris had time to reflect on his choices. This near life-ending experience forced Kris to reassess everything in his life. He learned to say no, he overhauled his priorities, and he figured out how to build a business and a life by design.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Reality is negotiable.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Fast-forward to January 2020, and Kris just had his second baby - but his life is unrecognisable. He’s still a hustler, but he only works on meaningful projects that he loves - such as Dugout Mugs, which is currently experiencing exponential growth.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Kris’s story is an inspiration. He’s proof that when you know your why, anything is possible. Check out some of the things Kris and I discuss in this powerful episode:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How does being a father make you a better entrepreneur?</li><li>How do you escape the trap of equating busy with valuable?&nbsp;</li><li>Why you must remove yourself from the things you’re not good at.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of saying NO.&nbsp;</li><li>The blessings that show up when you align yourself back on your path.&nbsp;</li><li>The full story of how Kris nearly died.&nbsp;</li><li>Why it’s OK to not finish the books you start.&nbsp;</li><li>The story behind the exponential growth of Dugout Mugs.&nbsp;</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“Make the most important things, the most important things as often as you can.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Check out <a href="https://dugoutmugs.com/" target="_blank">https://dugoutmugs.com/</a></li><li>Contact Kris Instagram at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/itsjustkris/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/itsjustkris/</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“No matter how far or fast you fall, if you’ve helped enough people, you’re always going to come out on top.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Kris Dehnert used to be an opportunist. He was ‘good enough’ to crush a wide range of projects and this skill led him to found eight different businesses in a variety of verticals including fitness, real estate, eCommerce and consulting. Kris made a lot of money driven by the ‘lie’ that he was doing it<em> for the family.&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>Until the day he nearly died...&nbsp;</p><br><p>The year was 2015 and his first daughter was just a few months old. The abdominal pain was so intense, Kris was forced to take refuge on the floor of a Starbucks restroom. But instead of visiting the hospital, Kris decided to return home, take some pills, and carry on. After all, he had meetings booked and deals to close.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>When the pain didn’t subside after a few days, Kris did go to hospital - and the prognosis wasn’t good. He needed emergency surgery and was given a 30% chance of surviving.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Post surgery, Kris had time to reflect on his choices. This near life-ending experience forced Kris to reassess everything in his life. He learned to say no, he overhauled his priorities, and he figured out how to build a business and a life by design.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Reality is negotiable.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Fast-forward to January 2020, and Kris just had his second baby - but his life is unrecognisable. He’s still a hustler, but he only works on meaningful projects that he loves - such as Dugout Mugs, which is currently experiencing exponential growth.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Kris’s story is an inspiration. He’s proof that when you know your why, anything is possible. Check out some of the things Kris and I discuss in this powerful episode:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How does being a father make you a better entrepreneur?</li><li>How do you escape the trap of equating busy with valuable?&nbsp;</li><li>Why you must remove yourself from the things you’re not good at.&nbsp;</li><li>The power of saying NO.&nbsp;</li><li>The blessings that show up when you align yourself back on your path.&nbsp;</li><li>The full story of how Kris nearly died.&nbsp;</li><li>Why it’s OK to not finish the books you start.&nbsp;</li><li>The story behind the exponential growth of Dugout Mugs.&nbsp;</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“Make the most important things, the most important things as often as you can.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Check out <a href="https://dugoutmugs.com/" target="_blank">https://dugoutmugs.com/</a></li><li>Contact Kris Instagram at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/itsjustkris/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/itsjustkris/</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Presence gives us the capacity to experience what we’re experiencing, but with an internal container that can hold that experience in such a way that we aren’t completely overwhelmed or burdened by it.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>I’ve had a long-held goal to interview someone like today’s guest for the podcast. An individual who spent time living in isolation as a monk while living inside the realities of chaos in today’s fast-paced world.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So when I met my good friend Cory Muscara a year ago, it felt like divine timing! Cory is an international speaker and teacher on the topics of mindfulness and positive psychology - a journey that began with a desire to impress a girl.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This ‘hippy’ college girlfriend sparked Cory’s interest in meditation. After their relationship broke down, Cory’s pain called him to take meditation more seriously. In turn, he spent six months in silence living as a monk in Burma where he’d meditated for over 14 hours a day.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As a result of this experience, Cory is now in a beautiful position where he can bridge the gap between monk-like enlightenment - and those of us seeking truth amongst the triggers and challenges of everyday life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>A frequent guest on the Dr. Oz show and an instructor of positive psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, Cory’s on a mission to help people embody the principles of mindfulness in a practical and relatable way. His meditations have been heard more than 10 million times in over 50 countries, and he lives on Long Island where he offers workshops and retreats.</p><br><p>Cory is also the new author of <em>Stop Missing Your Life. How To Be Deeply Present In An Unpresent World</em>. In this book, Cory offers a roadmap that will help you reconnect with your life in a beautiful way.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The more we take care of each moment as it is, the more we actually take care of the next moment and subsequently the future.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Our conversation gets very meta, but it’s also highly practical. In this deep conversation, Cory explains how to create presence. A state when you experience the fullness of yourself - without shutting down, turning away, or numbing the sensations of the moment.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, you’ll discover:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>What is presence - and how to deepen into it.&nbsp;</li><li>Why curiosity is the opposite of fear.&nbsp;</li><li>What Cory learned about life in a Bermese monastery.&nbsp;</li><li>How to build a better relationship with the voice inside you.&nbsp;</li><li>What is intuition?&nbsp;</li><li>The pebble method that guides you to know what to do at any moment.&nbsp;</li><li>Why being OK with not being yourself is the ultimate expression of self-love.&nbsp;</li><li>The problem with trying to transcend the ego before you’ve befriended it.</li><li>The <em>“Good luck, bad luck - who knows...” </em>parable for a better life.&nbsp;</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>I had so much fun with Cory and I know you’ll love this episode too.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“It’s the pursuit and the process of doing something — not the outcome — that actually matters.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>This episode turned out a little different than our usual format! I’ve spoken with <strong>Sachit Gupta</strong> countless times. So in this episode, I was keen to see what would happen if we dived down the rabbithole with zero expectations.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And the result was pure gold!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Sachit is the deep-thinking, creative genius behind Platforms Media - a company that helps amplify podcasters, authors, and other creatives by creating win-win partnerships with brands. Through this platform, Sachit has worked on marketing campaigns with top podcasters including Tim Ferriss of the Tim Ferriss Show, Andrew Warner of Mixergy, and Seth Godin, as well as social media influencers and international sports stars. In addition to his work with top creatives, Sachit is also the host of the Conscious Creators Show - where he helps his listeners make a life through their art without selling their souls.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Creativity runs through his blood and I was excited to learn more about his take on this crucial topic. But we didn’t stop there… As the deep-dive continued, Sachit and I explored a delicious mix of topics that stretched from fear, courage, curiosity, to how to live a fulfilling life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you’re curious to be a fly-on-the-wall as two creatives discuss creativity, life, and more, this is your chance! Check it out now.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Creation is something where you can take anger, rage or negative feelings and turn it into something positive without harming other people.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>This is one of those episodes where our conversation will get you thinking and contemplating about your own creativity and life. So if you’re ready to be challenged and engage in deep thought with myself and today’s guest, dive in now.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, you’ll discover:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why society is driven by creation.&nbsp;</li><li>How to define creativity and where inspirational sparks come from.</li><li>How to get clear on your best next steps and why the answers come when you take action.</li><li>Why helping someone else gets you out of a funk and creates space for creativity.</li><li>How to reach out to friends you haven’t contacted for a while - and why it’s important to do this.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Why we’re scared of being seen starting something small.&nbsp;</li><li>The danger of believing ‘borrowed’ stories.</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Be sure to watch out for the<strong> listener challenges</strong> too and let us know how they impact your life.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Just do it and know that if you fail, it doesn’t say anything about who you are.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Sachit’s podcast: <a href="http://go.creators.show/mobile" target="_blank">http://go.creators.show/mobile</a></li><li>Sachit’s media company: <a href="http://platformsmedia.com/" target="_blank">http://platformsmedia.com/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/sachitgupta" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/sachitgupta</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/sachitgupta/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/sachitgupta/</a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/sachitgupta" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/sachitgupta</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

So in this episode, I was keen to see what would happen if we dived down the rabbithole with zero expectations.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And the result was pure gold!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Sachit is the deep-thinking, creative genius behind Platforms Media - a company that helps amplify podcasters, authors, and other creatives by creating win-win partnerships with brands. Through this platform, Sachit has worked on marketing campaigns with top podcasters including Tim Ferriss of the Tim Ferriss Show, Andrew Warner of Mixergy, and Seth Godin, as well as social media influencers and international sports stars. In addition to his work with top creatives, Sachit is also the host of the Conscious Creators Show - where he helps his listeners make a life through their art without selling their souls.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Creativity runs through his blood and I was excited to learn more about his take on this crucial topic. But we didn’t stop there… As the deep-dive continued, Sachit and I explored a delicious mix of topics that stretched from fear, courage, curiosity, to how to live a fulfilling life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you’re curious to be a fly-on-the-wall as two creatives discuss creativity, life, and more, this is your chance! Check it out now.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Creation is something where you can take anger, rage or negative feelings and turn it into something positive without harming other people.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>This is one of those episodes where our conversation will get you thinking and contemplating about your own creativity and life. So if you’re ready to be challenged and engage in deep thought with myself and today’s guest, dive in now.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, you’ll discover:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why society is driven by creation.&nbsp;</li><li>How to define creativity and where inspirational sparks come from.</li><li>How to get clear on your best next steps and why the answers come when you take action.</li><li>Why helping someone else gets you out of a funk and creates space for creativity.</li><li>How to reach out to friends you haven’t contacted for a while - and why it’s important to do this.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Why we’re scared of being seen starting something small.&nbsp;</li><li>The danger of believing ‘borrowed’ stories.</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Be sure to watch out for the<strong> listener challenges</strong> too and let us know how they impact your life.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Just do it and know that if you fail, it doesn’t say anything about who you are.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li>Sachit’s podcast: <a href="http://go.creators.show/mobile" target="_blank">http://go.creators.show/mobile</a></li><li>Sachit’s media company: <a href="http://platformsmedia.com/" target="_blank">http://platformsmedia.com/</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/sachitgupta" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/sachitgupta</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/sachitgupta/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/sachitgupta/</a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/sachitgupta" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/sachitgupta</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I never make a wrong decision, I make the most informed decision of the moment.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Carol Rydell is a spiritual seeker and the founder and director of New Earth Wealth Mystery School™. In this role, she serves as a mentor and catalyst for amazing souls and spiritual entrepreneurs who are deeply committed to their growth and transformation. In her ‘safe containers’, Carol guides people on a mystical journey where they connect with their inner shaman so they can come to love and trust themselves on a level they’ve never experienced before.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Carol is no stranger to navigating the ups and downs of life - something she describes as learning to live in fluidity. For example, she followed her soul’s calling to sell her accountancy firm at the height of her career so she could travel, learn about where abundance comes from, and discover parts of herself that she didn’t know existed.&nbsp;</p><br><p>In this episode, Carol explains how we can learn to navigate the waves of life by tapping into natural cycles. She reminds us that <em>“as above, so below”</em> and <em>“as within, so without’</em>. When you’re constantly hit by waves, and you never seem to be able to find the shore, life can feel tiring, but as Carole explains, this is all part of our journey to fluidity.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“As soon as I think I’ve got it - here we go into the next learning phase.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Carol has a beautiful approach to living life to the full. Her philosophies on aligning with nature and allowing natural rhythms to guide us through life’s ups and downs are inspiring. So if you’re feeling battered and bruised and you’re curious to understand the bigger picture at play, this episode is for you.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune in now and discover:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>What natural cycles can teach us about all areas of our lives</li><li>What called Carol to leave her career at its peak</li><li>The difference between mastery and fluidity - and why different people have different paths</li><li>How intention can plug the leaks in your life that prevent you from creating what you want</li><li>Why Carol’s late husband was right when he claimed, “I never make a wrong decision”</li><li>A foolproof way to distinguish your soul’s truth from your ego’s distractions</li><li>A simple method for discovering who you really are</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong><em>“I always show up for myself as much as I would show up for another.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p><strong>How to contact&nbsp;</strong></p><ul><li><a href="http://www.carolrydell.com" target="_blank">www.carolrydell.com</a></li><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/caroljrydell" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/caroljrydell</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/carol.rydell/" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/carol.rydell/</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Fear is a gift. It is a gift that either keeps us safe or it’s a gift that gives us the power to make change in our life.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>As a Navy Seal Officer who served in the Middle East between 1998 - 2008, Larry is used to showing up in situations where you’re genuinely walking the line between life and death.&nbsp; But it was this unique military experience in high-pressure, high-stress environments that taught Larry how to lead successful teams.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Despite what you think it’s not individual survival or glory that motivates people to excel. Instead, it’s your ability to coordinate action with others and figure out how to be stronger together.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Today, Larry Yatch shares these insights with business leaders in his role as a leadership and behavior change expert for high performing teams. As the founder of Plan-Sight, Larry shares his proprietary leadership and planning systems to help teams unite behind purpose and get on the same page.

Check it out.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“My ability to survive depends on my ability to coordinate action with others — to be on a team.

Courage is taking action despite fear. Therefore, without fear you can’t have courage.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Some people crumble under stress, while others thrive. Thanks to Larry’s unique background, he’s mastered what it takes to show up as your best under the most high-pressured environments imaginable. There are a ton of business and life takeaways waiting for you to pull from this episode.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Money isn’t good or bad. It’s our relationship with money that is good or bad.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>We say that money can’t buy happiness, but at the same time we believe money holds the solution to all kinds of problems and situations.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“When we’re in struggle, that’s when our shadow and demons show up and dance.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>What happens when you experience a huge failure in business?&nbsp;</p><br><p>For many entrepreneurs, failure brings dark times. We’re so used to wrapping our identity around what we do that when things don’t work out, our self-worth plummets. This episode’s guest found herself in this exact situation - putting herself in $5 million of personal debt. In fact, her situation was so challenging, she found herself in a place where she felt she was worth more dead than she was alive.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This is the dark side of entrepreneurship - a side that’s not often spoken about in public, but it’s a time when business owners need the most support. So after coming out of the other side of failure, Kelly wrote <em>Lost in Startuplandia: Wayfinding for the Weary Entrepreneur - </em>a book written to share her own experiences and insights about the start-up journey. <em>&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>So if you’re struggling with failure and you need a boost to help you navigate this all-too-common phase of entrepreneurship, this episode is for you. Tune in now to discover the possibilities that arise when you embrace what failure has to teach you - and how you can survive and thrive, even when you feel knocked down.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Failure itself is not the problem, it’s our relationship with failure. It’s how we hold it, it’s how we define it, or how we let it define us.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>When it comes to business success and failure, Kelly has experienced both sides of the spectrum.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Kelly is a serial tech entrepreneur, artist, angel investor, and mother of two. She’s the co-founder of Custom Reality Services, a virtual reality (VR) production company whose first two projects, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. She’s also the recipient of the Silvertip PwC Entrepreneurship Award and Speech Technology’s Luminary Award.</p><br><p>Check out this episode and discover:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>The predictable traps for failure - and how to navigate them</li><li>The reason YOU get to define what failure means</li><li>Why we’re all liars and how honesty can set you free</li><li>How a brain injury transformed Kelly’s mindset for life [and inspired her to write her book]</li><li>What to watch for when sharing your truth with others</li><li>The dangers of basing your self-worth on your work</li><li>And more…</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Kelly experienced spectacular failure, but survived to tell the tale! In fact, she’s emerged stronger and more courageous as a result of her experiences. Kelly’s story is a reminder that failure in business doesn’t mean the end of the road.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“There is some intelligence inside of us that has direction and leads us. Every time I make a decision that’s in alignment with that big purpose, I get goosebumps.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>The internet, digital media, and ecommerce has made it easier than ever to build successful businesses. The last few decades have seen countless companies come and go, but only a small percentage of brands have what it takes to stick around long-term. It begs the question; what does it take to create a sustainable business with a legacy that can outlive its founder?&nbsp;</p><br><p>One of the most qualified people to answer this question is <strong>Brian Smith</strong> - the founder of the world-famous <strong>UGG Brand</strong>. Starting in the late 1970s with 500 imported boots and $500 in capital, Brian spent 17 years building the UGG brand in a multi-million dollar enterprise. After selling in 1995, the brand has continued to grow and over the past six years, annual sales have exceeded billions of&nbsp;dollars. Despite global dominance, life with UGG wasn’t all rosy. Sales took years to take off in a meaningful way, and Brian faced enormous challenges - including a period when he lost his company. But despite all the pitfalls, Brian came out on top - and in this extra special 100th episode, he shares his reasons why.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you’re an entrepreneur looking to build a successful, sustainable brand, don’t miss it!&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Just figure out what you can do better than anybody else and do it.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Well-being is an ongoing thing. It’s a way of life. It isn’t a trend.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>The paradigm is outdated. You don’t need to be successful <em>before</em> you can focus on your well-being. According to this episode’s guest&nbsp;- Megan McNealy - you can DO and BE well <strong>at the same time</strong>. More than that, if you make well-being a focal point for your life, you can actually LEVERAGE it to create even more success.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Nowadays, Megan is an impact-driven entrepreneur and founder of <em>Well-Being Drives Success</em> - a multi-faceted platform that serves people striving for exceptional wellness <em>and</em> extraordinary success.</p><br><p>But she didn’t always prioritize well-being. As an award winning, 20+ year First Vice President and Wealth Management Advisor at one of the largest financial firms in the world, Megan chased the traditional model of success. As a high achiever, she worked the hours and invested in the hustle. But in 2010, her life crescendoed into the ‘perfect storm’. Megan’s health had begun to deteriorate when she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. This condition froze her hands until she was unable to hold a pen and caused pain while walking. Then she contracted chronic kidney disease followed by kidney cancer.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Megan felt like she was trying to catch a falling knife. She was broken down on the side of the road with no clear way out.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It was then that she turned her focus to well-being - but not the traditional model of sleep, diet, and exercise. Instead, she created a holistic lifestyle that was based on 18 different practices - all focusing a different area of wellness. Megan’s “wealth-being” wheel helped her focus on her mind, body, and spirit - and it was so effective, it literally saved her life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>After discovering that plenty of other high-ranking executives are suffering behind the scenes, Megan felt called to share what she’d discovered. It’s how her new book - <em>Reinvent the Wheel: How Top Leaders Leverage Well-Being for Success </em>was born.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I promised when I was sick that if I ever lived that I would devote the rest of my life to helping other people.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I always had this thing where I wanted to be helpful for every single person. I don’t want to have to look at someone and say there isn’t anything I can do.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Bob Gilpatrick and his business partner Larry began working on projects together when Larry was 65. At the time, Larry was in very poor health. He was suffering from a range of illnesses and disorders common with older folk. He was on 11 medications, he’d had two surgeries and was scheduled for two more, and he was riddled with pain and discomfort.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It’s what happens when you’re ‘old’ - or is it?&nbsp;</p><br><p>Using his 20 years’ experience in holistic nutrition, Bob developed a comprehensive nutrition plan for Larry. After just TWO months, Larry had lost pounds of excess weight, he was full of energy, and he even looked significantly younger. What’s more, Larry was able to quit all his meds, avoid two surgeries, and cut 36 years off his age [according to his life insurance provider]!</p><br><p>The results were so astounding, that Bob and Larry founded <em>Boomers Forever Young</em> - to ensure age is no longer an excuse to live a compromised life.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I was known as the guy who was always bringing crazy types of alternative medicine to the formal western medicine centers.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>At 63-years-young, Bob Gilpatrick is an exceptionally skilled and gifted healer. He’s dedicated his life to mastering multiple different techniques, disciplines, and skills to ensure he can help anyone who asks for it. Bob will transform your perception of what healing is possible.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I always had this thing where I wanted to be helpful for every single person. I don’t want to have to look at someone and say there isn’t anything I can do.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Bob Gilpatrick and his business partner Larry began working on projects together when Larry was 65. At the time, Larry was in very poor health. He was suffering from a range of illnesses and disorders common with older folk. He was on 11 medications, he’d had two surgeries and was scheduled for two more, and he was riddled with pain and discomfort.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It’s what happens when you’re ‘old’ - or is it?&nbsp;</p><br><p>Using his 20 years’ experience in holistic nutrition, Bob developed a comprehensive nutrition plan for Larry. After just TWO months, Larry had lost pounds of excess weight, he was full of energy, and he even looked significantly younger. What’s more, Larry was able to quit all his meds, avoid two surgeries, and cut 36 years off his age [according to his life insurance provider]!</p><br><p>The results were so astounding, that Bob and Larry founded <em>Boomers Forever Young</em> - to ensure age is no longer an excuse to live a compromised life.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I was known as the guy who was always bringing crazy types of alternative medicine to the formal western medicine centers.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>At 63-years-young, Bob Gilpatrick is an exceptionally skilled and gifted healer. He’s dedicated his life to mastering multiple different techniques, disciplines, and skills to ensure he can help anyone who asks for it. Bob will transform your perception of what healing is possible. In the most unimaginable situations, Bob is able to inspire recovery, healing, and deep inner peace.</p><br><p>Check out this week’s episode to hear about:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Bob’s 9/11 ‘Torchstory’ and his seven-year cough</li><li>Why getting hit by a van at 60mph ignited Bob’s interest in nutrition&nbsp;</li><li>How Bob helped ‘heal’ the PTSD-suffering Vietnam veteran who accidentally killed his own son</li><li>What opens up when you find peace with your childhood traumas</li><li>Why Bob’s morning routine starts in the evening with revision scissors’</li><li>The fact that most people spend just 5% of their day in a state where everything feels ‘ok’</li><li>And more...</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Bob is proof that the human body is capable of much more than we give it credit for.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“These conversations that we’re scared of shift reality. They create a new reality.”</em></strong></p><br><p>As a kid, David Wood didn’t have the courage to speak up to the bullies or to ask out the girls he liked. He didn’t have the skills necessary to have those tough conversations - so he didn’t, and he lost out as a result.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But all that changed back in 1996 when David attended Landmark Forum. At this event, David grabbed the opportunity to ‘clear up his past’. He made a list of people he needed to speak with [including his childhood bully] and called them. This experience showed David that tough conversations can be transformative. In the process of sharing his truth, David improved relationships, rewrote memories, and transformed his view of the world.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So if you have always feared having uncomfortable but necessary conversations with others, you’re in safe hands!&nbsp;</p><br><p>David is a highly sought after coach, who works with high-performing entrepreneurs, executives, teams, and prison inmates to help them create amazing results and deep connection. He’s the author of <em>"Get Paid For Who You Are"</em> [Jack Canfield wrote the foreword]. He was also nominated for the Transformational Leadership Council alongside thought leaders such as Don Miguel Ruiz, John Gray, and Marianne Williamson.</p><br><p>David became #1 on Google for ‘life coaching’, to-date, he’s served an audience of 150,000 coaches, and he’s racked up thousands of hours of coaching across 12 countries.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So whether you want to talk with your over-demanding boss or say <em>“I love you”</em> for the first time, David’s advice will make it easier. Tune in now.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Naming the fear can make it less scary.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>When you speak up artfully during tough conversations, you can open doors and create new possibilities. It’s why David is passionate about empowering people to lean into the discomfort and speak out anyway.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Here’s a taste of what we discuss in this episode:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why David waited until his 20s to tell his mom he loved her - and why it was a terrifying moment</li><li>How the tough gets smoother the more conversations you have</li><li>The 4-step blueprint for having difficult conversations without causing a trainwreck&nbsp;</li><li>3 tests that help you figure out if you need to have a particular conversation</li><li>The discussion that could have got David prosecuted</li><li>And more…&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>It can feel easier to hold your tongue and not say anything. When you fear rejection or embarrassment, saying nothing feels less painful - in the short-term anyway.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Don’t let the fear of confrontation hold you back. Instead, listen to David’s episode and get yourself the tools you need to speak out with ease.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I don’t want to feel bad about the fact that I didn’t go for something.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Making a contribution is not just something you do when you’ve got everything else in place.

In a career that’s spanned decades, he’s written nine books [including a #1 bestseller], he’s spoken to audiences all over the world, and he’s trained thousands of people to become Awakening Coaches. He’s also appeared on TV and radio, and his message is so important, he’s been invited to speak at Google and the United Nations.</p><br><p>His mission is simple yet powerful. He’s a wizard at helping ‘brilliant’ people discover how they can make their greatest contribution to humanity - so they can move the game forward in an evolutionary way.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I’m a super fan of this episode’s guest!

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“One thing that most people don’t realise is a better you is a better world. So whatever makes you better off will make the world better off.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>At 28, Zion Kim has achieved huge success in business. He’s the founder of IMT as well as a serial entrepreneur who’s been the whisperer behind many high profile entrepreneurs and business leaders. As a result of working alongside so many impressive people, he’s got clear on what it takes to be successful.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And the answer may surprise you...&nbsp;</p><br><p>Zion believes most business issues are either psychological or mindset related. The reason we don’t hire that person or launch that product isn’t because we don’t know how to do it. Instead, it’s because we’re stopped by a deeper story. emotional states, or limiting beliefs. Until you work through these subconscious blocks, you’ll always operated at a level lower than what you’re capable.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>This is why Zion is passionate about business mindset and psychological leadership. He’s obsessed with empowering people to work through their mindset and emotional blocks - so they can achieve personal success, become better leaders, <em>and</em> make an impact in the world.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And in this episode, Zion reveals some simple practices you can explore to do just this.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“There are 7.7 billion gifts that are waiting to be unlocked in the world.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Zion describes an interesting chain reaction that happens when you work on your own mindset.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Not only can you achieve more personal and business success…</p><br><p>But as you rewrite disempowering stories and heighten awareness of your thoughts, you learn.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“When you feel like you’re stuck in your own head and you can’t get out of your own way, the best way to change that is to help someone else.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>It was January 3rd 2011 when Chris Winfield finally checked into rehab after drinking since the age of 13. His addiction led to an isolated life, which had created a ‘god-sized’ hole that left him wanting more. On the outside, everything looked good. The company he co-founded employed over 100 people and grew to a bunch of offices, but he wasn’t happy.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Then a piece of pizza changed his life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>During a phone call where he was trying to save his imploding company, his 3 ½-year-old daughter appeared looking for breakfast. Chris wasn’t available. The sight of his daughter stretching up to the microwave to reheat her own pizza changed him in a heartbeat.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If he couldn’t be available for the most important person in his life, something was drastically wrong. He had to do different.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The pizza moment kick-started a daily habit that’s fueled and shaped Chris’s life ever since - and it’s all focused around helping. And with the law of reciprocity stirred into motion, Chris’ life transformed.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“Whatever you put out is going to come back to you in some form.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Nowadays, Chris’s life is all about helping other people. As co-founder and CEO of Super Connector Media, Chris empowers entrepreneurs with their publicity and marketing so they can get their message out into the world.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The <em>Helping One Person Everyday</em> [or H.O.P.E] philosophy is infused into everything Chris does - earning him the nickname, “The Super Connector”.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Passion is just one thread in an intricate weaving of what’s ultimately going to satisfy you.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>It was 2008 when Kelly Ernst entered the corporate world. At the heart of the crash, Kelly felt lucky to find a job. But after working for JP Morgan as an engineer on Wall Street, she soon burnt out. Life felt more purposeful in Austin where Kelly joined a software business committed to helping kids learn. But that didn’t work out long-term either. After the company was bought out, Keely was faced with the choice between a severance package or moving states.&nbsp;</p><br><p>She took the package and committed to life as an entrepreneur. This wasn’t as easy as it sounds! Without the safeguards of healthcare and a pension, running a business felt like a big risk. But according to Kelly’s old boss she was ‘unmanageable’ so she had to figure out a way to work.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And she did! Kelly used her coding and engineer skills to launch Redemin - an online fashion brand that built JEANome - proprietary AI that helps women shop for the perfect pair of jeans.</p><br><p>But her entrepreneurial journey wasn’t always smooth.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Everything from my past happened for me. And not only did it happen for me, it happened for me to show others that they can overcome their past as well.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Mark Crandall endured an unbelievably traumatic childhood. He was burnt with cigarettes, handcuffed inside a locked closet, and neglected by his parents. Taken into foster care age 3, life didn’t get any better. He started stealing, became addicted to drugs, and spent seven years in and out of prison.&nbsp;</p><br><p>None of this was his fault. He’d been dealt a rotten hand by life and after enduring so much trauma, this was his destiny. Then Mark met Rob - his first mentor. Rob asked Mark a question that literally changed his life in a heartbeat.&nbsp;</p><br><p><em>“What’s it like being a 25-year-old man living the ages of 3-7. What’s it like to play the victim?”</em></p><br><p>This question kick-started an awakening in Mark. He began to question everything n an attempt to strip away the layers and get closer to his heart. Mark was done allowing his past trauma to define his life. He was done blaming everyone else and he was ready to give himself a blank canvas and start over from scratch.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And that’s exactly what he did.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“I'm not scared of failing because outside of quitting, I don't believe there is any such thing as failure.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Today, Mark’s life is unrecognizable from his drug addicted, crime-ridden past. He beat all the odds to go back to school and train as a social worker, chemical dependency counselor, and clinical interventionist. Now the host of the Purpose Chaser podcast and author of <em>Embrace Your Past, Win Your Future</em>, Mark is speaker and transformation coach who helps people break free from their limiting beliefs.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Man, this episode gave me tingles. Mark had everything stacked against him, but still turned everything around. Mark’s story is a reminder that you don’t have to allow your past to define your future - if you don’t want it too.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This is a beautifully inspiring episode that 100% proves PEOPLE CAN CHANGE. Regardless of where you’ve come from or what you’ve endured, you can transform pain into passion and create a beautiful life that inspires millions.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Tune into this episode to discover:&nbsp;</p><ul><li>The full story of Mark’s traumatic past</li><li>How your life experiences can trick you into becoming a victim - and leaving you feeling as if you have no other choice</li><li>The ‘clear as day’ message that persuaded Mark to go back to school&nbsp;</li><li>A powerful reminder that your assumptions about what’s possible for you are probably false</li><li>The reason to seek - not sulk</li><li>How Mark let go the disempowering stories from his past and created a whole new identity</li><li>The beautiful reason why Mark’s past is now his gift</li><li>Mark’s gift to Hal Elrod that changed his life</li></ul><p><br></p><p>And much more.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Mark’s authenticity is inspiring to me and I’m definitely a fan.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Most people base success on how much money someone is making. Based on that I was successful but felt horrible, and I knew something had to change.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>This episode’s guest got his first taste of entrepreneurship in middle school when he started selling candy out of his locker. By the time he was 24, Joshua Lee was running 16 companies and generating a couple million dollars a month.&nbsp;</p><br><p>To the outside world, he’d made it. He had more money than he knew what to do with. He was living a luxury life with his wife and two kids and he was surrounded by friends in similar positions. But inside, he felt horrible and miserable. His relationships had become transactional and his identity and self-esteem was driven by the figure in his bank account.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Worse than that, Josh didn’t feel as though he knew himself. His in-laws didn’t feel comfortable when he talked about his business success meaning there was this whole side to Josh that was buried and unexpressed to people outside his business circles.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Eventually Josh hit rock bottom. He knew he needed to restart his life and change his direction entirely. He realized he could always make more money, but he could never make more time so he divorced his wife, liquidated everything he owned, and found himself back in his parents’ home with just a few $000 in his account.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Age 36, Joshua once again had a blank canvas to play with - time to rebuild his life from scratch.&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“You can’t change the people around you but you can change yourself and that will in turn either draw or push away the good and bad people that you need in your life.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>Josh is an incredible example that you can build it all again - even if you’ve lost everything you worked so hard for. After escaping rock bottom and working through the depression his old life had created, Josh now helps other entrepreneurs be more human online.&nbsp;</p><br><p>He refuses to live with the spilt personalities so many entrepreneurs adopt, and instead is passionate about being himself all the time. Joshua is fueled by a mission to make the world a better place for his kids. Author of <em>Balance in Bullsh*t</em>, Joshua fulfils this purpose by helping other entrepreneurs scale themselves with their company so they do not scale themselves out of their company.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So if you feel that you can’t be yourself and you’d like to be inspired by a man who’s reinvented himself into a happier life, tune into the episode now.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Purpose is the precipice of meaning, and without meaning, we are just doing chores.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Purpose is <em>‘everything’</em>.&nbsp;</p><br><p>It’s the fuel that gives meaning to life and it’s the key that unlocks the motivation to act. Without purpose, there’s no reason to do the hard stuff or no incentive to step out of your comfort zone. That’s why figuring out your purpose is one of the most beautiful gifts you can give yourself.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But it’s not an easy path to walk - and that’s not your fault.&nbsp;</p><br><p>As a human, you have to dance through life with two competing ‘partners’. First, there’s your Monkey Mind - your reactive, inner critic, fear-fueled self. The part of you that’s desperate to keep you safe and keep you away from risk. Secondly, there’s your <em>‘Soul Purpose Heart’</em> - the part of you who’s connected to source. The wild dreaming, big loving consciousness that wants you to thrive.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And the life you get to live is determined by which partner you allow to dominate <em>your </em>dance.</p><br><p>This episode's guest is dedicated to helping you navigate this dance. She’s <strong>Demi McConkie</strong> -- the Soul Purpose Coach who’s helped me unlock my purpose. And in this episode, Demi shares some of her best soul purpose tips - so you can learn to master life’s ultimate dance.</p><br><p><strong><em>“One of the things I do with my clients is I have them dream more than they’ve ever dreamed and take smaller steps than they’ve ever taken before. Then you can cultivate more confidence in doing things that are slightly over your edge. There you can access that courage. You’re not gripped by monkey mind.”</em></strong></p><br><p>In every moment, both your Monkey Mind and Soul Purpose Heart have information and insights to share. It’s a beautiful and competing conflict that can help you discover who you really are - while you live your best life.&nbsp;</p><br><p>If you’re curious to discover your soul purpose and how you can use it, you’ll find this episode is pure gold. So tune in now and hear Demi speak about:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why purpose is <em>everything</em> and why you need to figure out yours to live a life you love</li><li>The reason your Monkey Mind and Soul Purpose heart compete and co-exist to help you grow</li><li>How radical curiosity opens the purpose door - and the five ‘zappers’ that kill it</li><li>A parenting ‘disaster’ that helped Demi define who she really was [if you’re a parent, you’ll definitely be able to relate to this]&nbsp;</li><li>The life-changing impact of dreaming bigger than you’ve ever dreamed while acting smaller than you’ve ever acted</li><li>Why courage is the prerequisite to confidence</li><li>How slowing down opens the door to knowledge you couldn’t otherwise access</li></ul><p><br></p><p>And much, much more.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I LOVE working with Demi. She’s a beautiful human with an incredible gift, which you’ll get a taste of in this episode.</p><p>So if you’re ready to live a more conscious, purposeful life, I promise Demi’s insights will give you a kick-start to help you on your way.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“Addictions, unlike people, will never let you down. They will always be there for you. They are your best friend because they are always there. They’re also your biggest enemy because of the damage they do to you.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>This episode’s guest became an addict when he was just 11-years-old.&nbsp;</p><br><p>The way it happened was quite innocent and even accidental. Michael Dash won his first ever bet during a family Thanksgiving dinner. It was an experience that led to a 20 year gambling addiction.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Thanks to his addictive personality, Michael didn’t stop at gambling. Instead, he kept chasing the high. And the more he got, the more he needed. This led him to pills at college, which evolved into marijuana and cocaine.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Despite these addictions, Michael was outwardly successful. Driven by hard work and addicted to doing well, Michael was earning 6-figures just two years out of school. Fuelled by the high that his addictions guaranteed, he worked his butt off to ensure he could fuel his obsessions.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>But he wasn’t happy. Instead, he was angry, isolated, and self-loathing.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Then he got wrangled into a million-dollar law suit with his ex business partner - and life slowly started to turn around.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The road to success is always under construction.”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><br><p>An entrepreneur’s event in Bali proved to be the turning point Michael needed.&nbsp;</p><br><p>At this event, he discover the principles of flow, which forced him to ask a different question - <em>“Would it be so bad to live a different way?”&nbsp;</em></p><br><p>The answer was of course NO, and in that moment, Michael began his transformation from angry addict to a life of fulfillment and freedom. And in this episode, he shares how he did it.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So tune in now to discover:&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How death enabled him to let go of the law suit that was draining his life</li><li>The powerful message Michael has for his 11-year-old self</li><li>The reason simple habits can remove the stranglehold of addiction</li><li>The power of curiosity to change your life and self-identity</li><li>How change is ‘easy’ and why he wants to help other addicts adopt the same belief</li><li>How tribes lead to fulfilment</li><li>The 1-10 scale of life and how the non-addicted Michael is able to feel it all</li></ul><p><br></p><p>And much, much more.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Michael’s story is proof that pain has a purpose and your mess can become your message.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So if you have an addictive personality or you know of someone who has, make sure you listen to this episode.

Prior to this life-changing experience, Ricky Roberts didn’t care whether he lived or died. After an abusive childhood, Ricky was full of anger and resentment. He thought about suicide frequently. He’d even put a gun in his mouth and played with the trigger.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But as he lay in the hospital bed watching the Emergency Staff work him, he realized he didn’t want to die after all.

She’s also the highly coveted author of the brand new book, “The Core 4”, and passionate about helping women build their inner and outer strength so they can take up more space.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Through her ‘Core 4’ teachings, Steph empowers women to ditch their diets, the scales, and exercise as a form of punishment. Her work is powerful, her story is inspiring, and I could not wait to go down the rabbithole with her in this incredible episode.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Like lots of other women, Steph used to struggled with her weight. She suffered with body dysmorphia and was obsessed with dieting. Food ruled and Steph never felt enough. Her inner dialogue told her she wasn’t pretty enough, smart enough, thin enough or even good enough. She had problems with blood sugar regulation and she wasn’t happy.&nbsp;</p><br><p>But all that changed when she discovered a whole new way of eating called paleo.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Out went her relentless calorie counting and in came fats and animal proteins. It was a revelation. Steph’s energy levels soared, and her body, mind, and confidence began to heal after years of pain.&nbsp;</p><br><p>And now, Steph helps other women experience the exact same results.&nbsp;</p><br><p>So if you’re fed up with endless dieting and you want to transform the way you feel about yourself and your body so you can get on with living, this episode is for you.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p><strong><em>“The people you see in life that you perceive as the most successful or are able to overcome hard things - they are not generally fearless.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“We can’t change the past — we can just learn from it. We can look at it and wonder what we could have done differently. How can we learn and do things so that we don’t make those same mistakes today?” </em></strong></p><br><p>As a kid, Colin was obsessed with golf. He was naturally talented and eventually turned pro. Then to his horror, he realized this wasn’t the life he wanted. He hit his breaking point on the 9th tee of a golf course in Arizona. Despite being in the state for two months, Colin realized he knew nothing about the area except the golf course. It was time to quit.</p><br><p>But that’s when the real ‘competition’ began.</p><br><p>Until that point, golf had been <em>everything</em> to Colin. It defined who he was, how others saw him, and what he did. How could he make the transition to something new when he didn’t even know what it was he wanted?</p><br><p>Business seemed like the obvious solution, but it wasn’t until he struggled as an entrepreneur for many years until he figured it out. He’s been trying to get rich quick, but that wasn’t the answer! Instead, he needed to dive into personal development and cultivate the self-awareness necessary to craft his version of an extraordinary life.</p><br><p>As soon as Colin focused on adding value and building strong relationships, everything changed. Now, Colin is successful in business, life, and media. He’s also discovered his true passion -- helping professional athletes prepare for life after sport.</p><br><p>To listen to Colin’s start-over story and to get inspired to begin your own, check out this inspiring episode now.</p><br><p><strong><em>“You need that vision for what you want and who you want to be in your life. When you do that, that’s when you can really find your voice and start to make a really positive change.” </em></strong></p><br><p>In this episode, you’ll hear about:</p><ul><li>The <em>exact </em>moment Colin realized he had to quit his professional golfing career</li><li>Colin’s ‘fist’ of steps that get you moving in the direction you want</li><li>The life-defining moment that happened in a cemetery</li><li>Why honest, daily reflection will rapidly accelerate your path forward</li><li>The steps Colin took to figure out his passion and find the work he wanted to do</li><li>The crazy simple way Colin found what he was looking for</li><li>The strategy that will help you divorce your path and start over</li><li>Why you have stacks more time that you currently believe</li></ul><p><br></p><p>And much more.</p><br><p>If you feel stuck in your life right now and something inside says it’s time for a change, this episode is for you. Yes, it’s beyond scary to start out from scratch, but the rewards can be huge. It worked for Colin and it could work for you too when you leverage the ideas and tips contained in this podcast.</p><br><p><strong><em>“I’m really passionate about what I want to do right now, but that may change in the future and I’m open to that.

How could he make the transition to something new when he didn’t even know what it was he wanted?</p><br><p>Business seemed like the obvious solution, but it wasn’t until he struggled as an entrepreneur for many years until he figured it out. He’s been trying to get rich quick, but that wasn’t the answer! Instead, he needed to dive into personal development and cultivate the self-awareness necessary to craft his version of an extraordinary life.</p><br><p>As soon as Colin focused on adding value and building strong relationships, everything changed. Now, Colin is successful in business, life, and media. He’s also discovered his true passion -- helping professional athletes prepare for life after sport.</p><br><p>To listen to Colin’s start-over story and to get inspired to begin your own, check out this inspiring episode now.</p><br><p><strong><em>“You need that vision for what you want and who you want to be in your life. When you do that, that’s when you can really find your voice and start to make a really positive change.” </em></strong></p><br><p>In this episode, you’ll hear about:</p><ul><li>The <em>exact </em>moment Colin realized he had to quit his professional golfing career</li><li>Colin’s ‘fist’ of steps that get you moving in the direction you want</li><li>The life-defining moment that happened in a cemetery</li><li>Why honest, daily reflection will rapidly accelerate your path forward</li><li>The steps Colin took to figure out his passion and find the work he wanted to do</li><li>The crazy simple way Colin found what he was looking for</li><li>The strategy that will help you divorce your path and start over</li><li>Why you have stacks more time that you currently believe</li></ul><p><br></p><p>And much more.</p><br><p>If you feel stuck in your life right now and something inside says it’s time for a change, this episode is for you. Yes, it’s beyond scary to start out from scratch, but the rewards can be huge. It worked for Colin and it could work for you too when you leverage the ideas and tips contained in this podcast.</p><br><p><strong><em>“I’m really passionate about what I want to do right now, but that may change in the future and I’m open to that.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“When it comes to my day-to-day and my mindset, I don’t think about the past and the future. I focus on the situation at hand.” </em></strong></p><br><p>This episode's guest is the incredible Steven Kuhn -- a speaker, author, and consultant who empowers people to improve their life through the principles of honesty, integrity and transparency. He’s a man that can turn failing businesses into success and whose clients include rockstars, sports personalities, and celebrities.</p><br><p>Steven is a big man who makes an even bigger impact everywhere he goes -- and I can’t wait for you to meet him in this show.</p><br><p>But life wasn’t always this good. As a kid, he struggled with self-loathing and self-hatred, then after serving on the front line in Iraq, he came away with severe PTSD and suicidal thoughts.</p><br><p>But against the odds, Steven figured out how to use these rock bottom experiences to turn his life into a conduit for joy and love. This powerful mindset has empowered Steven to turn vulnerability into a strength, pain into perspective, and hurt into love.</p><br><p>Steven shows the power of true self-expression and what’s possible when you push back society’s expectations of what masculine strength should look like.</p><br><p>This episode left me pumped and I just know it will do the same for you too. Check it out :)</p><br><p>And in this episode, he walks you through the mindsets, decisions, and beliefs that empower you to live an extraordinary life -- no matter how low your personal rock bottom.</p><br><p><strong><em>“Focus doesn’t mean blindly staring at one spot. Focus means I’m aware of all opportunities that present themselves in that situation.” </em></strong></p><br><p>Steven doesn’t hold back in this episode. Instead, he shares some powerful stories that will move you deeply and inspire a fresh perspective on life.</p><br><p>Tune in now to hear:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How Steven ended up with a shotgun in his mouth -- aged 14</li><li>Why a 7ft wall became a catalyst for insatiable self-belief</li><li>How a piece of candy became a metaphor for finding love in dark moments</li><li>The story of the mysterious cop who reminded Steven of his purpose</li><li>What happened when Steven was told he would almost certainly die</li><li>Why vulnerability can make you more attractive</li><li>How PTSD helped Steven unlock his superpower</li></ul><p><br></p><p>And so much more.</p><br><p>Steven is a rockstar.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“</em><strong><em>Success means different things to different people.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“</em><strong><em>Having a growth mindset is not needing to spend time growing.

To date, the Founders Pledge has secured binding pledges of $1.6bn from 1200 business founders in 30 countries. YES! It’s incredible work, and the momentum keeps building as more entrepreneurs and business owners get onboard.</p><br><p>For me, this is an organization that holds a promise that altruism, philanthropy, and helping others will become the new north star.

You will always have the freedom of choice</em></strong><em>.” </em></p><br><p>In this week’s episode, Matt shares the incredible story that cultivated his desire to give back. It all started on a bus ride in Panama and a paralysed right hand. As his condition spread and worsened, Matt received the devastating news that he’d contracted a life-threatening illness from which 20% of people die.</p><br><p>It was a turning point for Matt. He made a pledge to himself that if he survived this thing, he’d commit himself to helping others. And that’s exactly what he’s done - in the most profound way.</p><br><p>I just know you’re going to love this episode. Matt dives deep and you get to learn more about how this incredible man thinks.</p><br><p>In this episode we discuss:</p><ul><li>The story from self-serving to massive global impact</li><li>The link between personal growth and helping others</li><li>Imposter syndrome - what it is and how you can navigate it</li><li>Why we need to cultivate courage and not confidence</li><li>The powerful role that presence plays in Matt’s life</li><li>All about the Founders Pledge and the amazing work it does</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This episode is incredible for so many reasons.</p><br><p>If you’re a founder of a business and you want to make an impact with your exit strategy, this episode is definitely for you.</p><br><p>And if you’re simply curious to learn more about potent self-improvement strategies that will help you live an extraordinary life, Matt has a lot to teach you.</p><br><p>So dive in, enjoy, and discover how one man is helping to find and fund the world’s most pressing problems.</p><br><p><em>“</em><strong><em>Ultimately, we’re not necessarily looking for confidence.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“</em><strong><em>Having a growth mindset is not needing to spend time growing. It’s that you can look at every situation and take away what you’re learning from it</em></strong><em>.” </em></p><br><p>In a world of growing inequality, deepening environmental problems, and significant global change, we have a lot of stuff that needs fixing!</p><br><p>And this episode’s guest is passionate about doing his bit to find and fund some of the world's most pressing problems.</p><br><p>Meet Matt Hunter, CEO of the incredible Founders Pledge - a global community of entrepreneurs all committed to donating a % of their exit proceeds to charity. To date, the Founders Pledge has secured binding pledges of $1.6bn from 1200 business founders in 30 countries. YES! It’s incredible work, and the momentum keeps building as more entrepreneurs and business owners get onboard.</p><br><p>For me, this is an organization that holds a promise that altruism, philanthropy, and helping others will become the new north star. It’s why I couldn’t wait to get Matt on the show.</p><br><p><em>“</em><strong><em>Even in the worst moments, you can still choose how to react and respond. You will always have the freedom of choice</em></strong><em>.” </em></p><br><p>In this week’s episode, Matt shares the incredible story that cultivated his desire to give back. It all started on a bus ride in Panama and a paralysed right hand. As his condition spread and worsened, Matt received the devastating news that he’d contracted a life-threatening illness from which 20% of people die.</p><br><p>It was a turning point for Matt. He made a pledge to himself that if he survived this thing, he’d commit himself to helping others. And that’s exactly what he’s done - in the most profound way.</p><br><p>I just know you’re going to love this episode. Matt dives deep and you get to learn more about how this incredible man thinks.</p><br><p>In this episode we discuss:</p><ul><li>The story from self-serving to massive global impact</li><li>The link between personal growth and helping others</li><li>Imposter syndrome - what it is and how you can navigate it</li><li>Why we need to cultivate courage and not confidence</li><li>The powerful role that presence plays in Matt’s life</li><li>All about the Founders Pledge and the amazing work it does</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This episode is incredible for so many reasons.</p><br><p>If you’re a founder of a business and you want to make an impact with your exit strategy, this episode is definitely for you.</p><br><p>And if you’re simply curious to learn more about potent self-improvement strategies that will help you live an extraordinary life, Matt has a lot to teach you.</p><br><p>So dive in, enjoy, and discover how one man is helping to find and fund the world’s most pressing problems.</p><br><p><em>“</em><strong><em>Ultimately, we’re not necessarily looking for confidence. We’re just looking for courage</em></strong><em>.” </em></p><br><p><strong>How to contact </strong></p><ul><li>Discover more about the Founders Pledge at <a href="https://founderspledge.com/" target="_blank">https://founderspledge.com/</a></li><li>Follow the conversation on Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FoundersPledge/" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/FoundersPledge/</a></li><li>Get tweeting at <a href="https://twitter.com/founderspledge" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/founderspledge</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“</em><strong><em>When you show up in a present way for somebody, it is so powerful that your heart can’t help but come through.</em></strong><em>” </em></p><br><p>This episode was filmed in front of a live audience making it a Stay Grounded first!</p><br><p>Phoebe Mroczek is a fellow podcaster and marketing strategist. She thought she had her life figured out from the age of five. All she ever wanted was to play soccer professionally - and she was good enough. But when she hit 21, she realized soccer wasn’t her destiny.</p><br><p>It was a revelation that left a massive void in Phoebe’s life - and she had to figure out how to close it.</p><br><p>Letting go of her soccer dream made Phoebe realize that you don’t have to restrict yourself to a single identity. Instead, you can pick and choose who you want to be and how to want to show up - on a daily basis (if that feels right). This realization empowered Phoebe to create a life on her terms that’s a full expression of who she wants to be. It’s how she’s able to travel extensively, podcast regularly, and build an aligned business that lights her up.</p><br><p>Guided by her feelings, Phoebe now walks her talk by showing other entrepreneurs how to build a successful business that’s an extension of who they are. And in this episode, she’ll show you how you can do the same.</p><br><p><em>“</em><strong><em>I think it takes a major catastrophe for people to wake up, for people to tell someone they love them, to write the note, to start the business, to do whatever it is</em></strong><em>.” </em></p><br><p>Phoebe and I dive deep into the rabbit hole during this conversation. We cover a diverse range of topics including:</p><ul><li>The circumstances that made Phoebe realize business could be a form of self expression.</li><li>Your imagination, visualization, and the power of creating a rich sensory experience.</li><li>How to leverage the law of reciprocation and why giving and receiving are two sides of the same coin.</li><li>The super smart technique Phoebe uses so she never feels misunderstood.</li><li>How to cultivate trust in your feelings so you feel empowered to make the right choices.</li><li>The question Phoebe asks at the end of each day so she hits the pillow accomplished.</li><li>Why you want to live your life in alignment - and the steps you can take to get there.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Plus much, much more.</p><br><p>Identities can help us express who we are - but they can also keep us trapped. But as you’ll hear in this week’s episode, identities are flexible making them a powerful took for an extraordinary life.</p><br><p>So tune into the beauty that is Phoebe Mroczek and get yourself inspired to create the life you want - even if it means walking away from everything you currently know.</p><br><p><em>“</em><strong><em>What if I operated under the assumption that everybody is going through what I’m going through?

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“We are all essentially shades of shadow to light, and the shadow is just aspects of ourselves that we haven’t forgiven and brought into light yet.” </em></strong></p><br><p>Like many of us, David Newell started out on the traditional path through life. After graduating, he took a lucrative career in investment banking and all was good for a while - until he burnt out aged just 25. The burnout was so severe that David was forced to quit working and take 6 months to recover and find himself again.</p><br><p>But as often is the case, this rock-bottom moment blossomed into an opportunity for massive healing and self-discovery. In this time, David chose to travel, invest in retreats, and get curious about life. This healing journey uncovered an enduring need to dive deep into the inner self to understand the workings of the mind. It’s where his <em>Inner Truth</em> podcast and business was born - work that he loves and work that provides a platform for continuous growth.</p><br><p>Nowadays, David is obsessed with diving deeper and exploring further. It’s a journey that’s taken him from the Amazon, to temples, to everything in between. He’s read books, taken courses, had deep conversations and met indigenous cultures - all fuelled by his desire to figure out what it takes to live a good life.</p><br><p>In fact, thanks to David’s many explorations (including a trip to the 10th dimension courtesy of Toad Medicine), he’s developed a level of consciousness that inspires me.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“We are all essentially shades of shadow to light, and the shadow is just aspects of ourselves that we haven’t forgiven and brought into light yet.” </em></strong></p><br><p>Like many of us, David Newell started out on the traditional path through life. After graduating, he took a lucrative career in investment banking and all was good for a while - until he burnt out aged just 25. The burnout was so severe that David was forced to quit working and take 6 months to recover and find himself again.</p><br><p>But as often is the case, this rock-bottom moment blossomed into an opportunity for massive healing and self-discovery. In this time, David chose to travel, invest in retreats, and get curious about life. This healing journey uncovered an enduring need to dive deep into the inner self to understand the workings of the mind. It’s where his <em>Inner Truth</em> podcast and business was born - work that he loves and work that provides a platform for continuous growth.</p><br><p>Nowadays, David is obsessed with diving deeper and exploring further. It’s a journey that’s taken him from the Amazon, to temples, to everything in between. He’s read books, taken courses, had deep conversations and met indigenous cultures - all fuelled by his desire to figure out what it takes to live a good life.</p><br><p>In fact, thanks to David’s many explorations (including a trip to the 10th dimension courtesy of Toad Medicine), he’s developed a level of consciousness that inspires me. And I’m sure you’ll feel the same when you tune into this deep and meaningful conversation about life, love, and everything in between.</p><br><p><strong><em>“Everything is the pursuit of love.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I just want to choose happy all the time, and if I’m not loving something I’m doing, I let it go. And if it’s something that brings me joy, I keep travelling down that path.” </em></strong></p><br><p>Shari Aldrich was doing well on the traditional path through life.</p><br><p>Working as an IT Director back in the 90s she had a secure and stable job, but it didn’t bring her joy. Like many others, she stuck it out -- until her mom and two of her siblings died unexpectedly in the space of just four years. After losing half her family in such a tiny timeframe, Shari realized that life is too short to settle for choices that don’t create joy.</p><br><p>It’s how happiness became her ruler and empowered her to discover the work she was born to do -- massage.</p><br><p>Nowadays, Shari doesn’t wait for happy to come. Instead, she <em>proactively</em> chooses it -- even when pain makes a visit. In fact, pain has been a catalyst for massive personal growth and now influences Shari’s mission to use massage to relieve one million people of pain by 2025.</p><br><p>But her story doesn’t stop there...</p><br><p><strong><em>“Life is so short and you don’t have time to get stuck in there. Otherwise, it’s a wasted life and I don’t want to see that for anybody.” </em></strong></p><br><p>Tune into this episode and you’ll discover how life delivered Shari’s another cruel twist, which changed everything (again).</p><br><p>After building a highly successful massage practice, Shari suffered a life-changing injury. She’d never be able to massage in the same way again.</p><br><p>But instead of giving up, Shari choose happy. Instead of blaming life, she used this rock bottom moment to think differently and transform her business. As a result, she’s on course to impact more people and leave an even greater legacy.</p><br><p>Shari’s story is proof that purpose and passion <em>can</em> emerge from pain. You’ve just got to be willing to trust your gut and choose happy. And if Shari can channel her pain in such a powerful way, then so can you.</p><br><p>Shari believes you don’t have to stay stuck in a job you hate and you can move through the toughest times. So if you want to feel happier, tune in to see how Shari <em>‘ripped off the band aid’</em> to create an extraordinary life and legacy. I promise, you can’t help by feeling inspired by this beautiful and powerful story.</p><br><p><strong><em>“I think we all have to go through these cycles in life where you have something happen that drags you down and you have to keep pushing forward into the next thing.

At the time, the medical community didn’t even have a name for Aimee’s chronic condition - but that turned out to be a blessing.</p><br><p>Aimee’s condition left her drained and debilitated.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“I know people in the world today who aren’t free. They’re slaves to work, they’re slaves to stereotypes and slaves to cultures and customs they don’t even believe in. Not being in jail does not mean you are free.” </em></strong></p><br><p>This week’s guest is proof that your past doesn’t have to equal your future. You can drop the old stories, change your core beliefs, and create a life you love - even if your past says otherwise.</p><br><p>Rewind two decades and not only was Andre serving a 100-year prison sentence, he also ran all the gang activity in the prison. You could say it was his destiny. As a kid, he felt unwanted. He felt disconnected and left out. In turn, he never saw his potential and instead followed a life fuelled by drugs, alcohol, depression, self-harming, and ultimately crime.</p><br><p>But as is the case with many people, once he hit rock bottom he was able to turn his life around.</p><br><p>It was during a period of solitary confinement that Andre eventually pulled the metaphorical parachute for help. His epiphany inspired him to do the work, and after serving just 14 years, he was free.</p><br><p>But more than claiming his physical liberty, Andre also reclaimed his mind to take back full control of his life.</p><br><p>Now, Andre’s life is one of impact and giving back. His mission is teaching individuals and corporations how to turn any situation around. His innovative strategies against gang activity and inmate manipulation have also improved correctional facilities across the U.S. He’s an all-round inspirational dude with an impactful and powerful story to share.</p><br><p>Can’t wait for you to hear it.</p><br><p><strong><em>“Everything that takes you down helps you come up.”</em></strong></p><br><p>Andre is the man! I was so inspired to discover the strategies and mindsets that enabled him to turn his life around in the most extraordinary way. So tune in now and hear us talk about:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How gratitude for rock bottom experiences helps you walk the extraordinary path through life</li><li>The real definition of freedom - and why most people aren’t as free as they think</li><li>Why you need to take small steps today to actualize the person you want to be in the future</li><li>The insanely valuable lessons he’d teach his 26-year-old self</li><li>Why Andre believes it’s his curses that allow him to help people</li><li>The only way to fail</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Prison rarely changes people at such a profoundly core level. Instead, it compounds their anger, frustration, and trauma.</p><br><p>But for Andre, it was the turning point that set him on the path of extraordinary.</p><br><p>So if you’re stuck with an old way of being that doesn’t serve you, check out this podcast for proof that total and absolute transformation IS possible -- if that’s what you really want.</p><br><p><strong><em>“If you want to be great, you can.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>“There is a way in which we can ask good questions, and I think that is the bridge I often use to help people discover these latent powers within themselves and their own human potential.” </em></strong></p><br><p>What do you do if you feel pain in your body? If you’re like a lot of people, then your instinct will be to reach for the painkillers. But what if that’s not the right thing to do?</p><br><p>Our western culture is very cerebral. We spend a lot of time in our heads, while ignoring the calling of our body. It can be hard to express emotions and even more difficult to process them. As a result, we experience a lot of dis-ease.</p><br><p>Today’s guest has a different approach. After a back injury while playing college football, Lee Holden was told he’d be out for the rest of the season. He took pain medication, but when the pills affected his digestion he sought a different route for healing. To his surprise, acupuncture made him better after just a few weeks and he was back in the team faster than anyone predicted. This profound healing experience reignited Lee’s passion for understanding energy and inspired him to practice Qi Gong.</p><br><p>Qi Gong is a mind, body, spirit practice that helps us reconnect with our life force by opening the flow of the energy meridians. Through a combination of posture, movement, breathing, sound, and focus, Qi Gong can help us deal with stress and dis-ease. Lee has practiced Qi Gong for over 25 years and helped over 10,000 students feel less stressed and more energetic. Working with the energy of the ‘three treasures’ (the mind, body, and heart), Lee’s work empowers people to live their happiest, most vibrant, most fulfilled lives. You’ll find out how in this episode.</p><br><p><strong><em>“If we can start to work with the energy of the mind — the chi of the mind — in visualising the way we want to be in our health and vitality or the way we want our lives to go, we can start to have a dramatic impact in a positive direction.” </em></strong></p><br><p>Lee’s also passionate about exploring how energy awareness can unlock human - even superhuman potential. It’s the subject of his new movie and something we discuss in this episode too. Wait until you hear how some of the masters are shattering our perception of what’s possible. It will blow your mind!</p><br><p>Lee’s wisdom and insight about energy left me super curious to discover and explore more and I’m certain you’ll feel the same way. Check out what we cover in this deep-dive conversation:</p><p><br></p><ol><li>The layman’s guide to Qi Gong</li><li>Why your mind includes more than your brain</li><li>Why the thoughts you have aren’t even yours</li><li>How Lee’s passion for human potential is being explored in the new Superhuman Movie</li><li>Stories of exceptional people who are achieving the impossible</li><li>The importance of seeking the truth inside</li></ol><p><br></p><p>You’ll also get to experience your Qi first-hand. That’s because Lee shares a super simple energy generating exercise that will allow you to feel the electricity that runs through your fingers.

So dive into this beautiful episode and gift yourself an introduction to energy that will inspire you to dig deeper and explore further.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“An alter ego gives you an amazing tool to tap into the creative imagination to allow you to unfold and see more of what you’re capable of.”</em></p><p>This episode’s guest is an absolute rockstar.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I believe that our microbes are our connection to each other, it’s our commonality as human beings, but it’s our connection to the cosmos.”</em></p><p>What I love about the Stay Grounded Podcast is it enables me to interview people from all walks of life - proof that we all have our unique stories to share with each other and the world.</p><p>And this episode is no different - apart from the fact that our conversation heads off in directions you won’t anticipate at the beginning.</p><p>Dr Gerry Curatola is a pioneer in the dental field. He’s a top dentist with over 28 years experience who’s appeared on the likes of Dr Oz. One of the things that sets Dr Gerry apart is his passion for using the mouth as a window to the whole person. He’s obsessed with oral health - in particular the health of the microbiome. It’s a passion that led him to create his own toothpaste - Revitin - which is entirely different to any other toothpaste that you’ll find on the market.</p><p>In this episode, Dr Gerry will inspire you to look at your own mouth in new ways. There are plenty of practical takeaways too. For example, you’ll discover why fluoride is a problem and why you should be worried about gum disease.</p><p>Then we dive into the rabbit hole :)</p><p><em>“I’m convinced that spiritual problems are a root issues that transcends mind and body.”</em></p><p>In this incredible episode, you’ll discover how Dr Gerry knew from the age of six that he was going to be a dentist. You’ll discover how to cultivate love to ensure faith runs through your blood and why this is key to living a life you love.</p><p>You’ll also hear about Dr Gerry’s fascinating ideas about the microbiome and why he believes microbes are our link to spirituality.</p><p>Then my personal favorite - a beautiful story of what is possible when you have absolute faith that the universe will deliver.</p><p>Dr Gerry is an inspirational, super smart man with a massive heart. This is a man who’s approaching dentistry in a way I’ve never heard about before in an effort to improve our overall health and wellbeing.</p><p>So listen in to learn how to take care of your mouth, but perhaps more importantly, how you can take care of your soul.&nbsp;</p><p><em>“The currency of the universe is love.”</em></p><p>How to contact</p><ul><li>Check out Dr Gerry on Facebook - gerrycuratoladds</li><li>And on Instagram - @drgerrydds</li><li>And on Twitter - @drgerrycuratola</li><li>To learn more about Dr Gerry’s toothpaste, visit https://www.revitin.com</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We thrive on your feedback, so if you’ve enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Whom you end up being in your financial life is not a coincidence. There is a lot of context for it. Maybe there were patterns you just didn’t see. Until you recognise that, you can’t really enhance or change the life that you have.”</em></p><p>Do you have money issues or money blocks? If so, you’re almost certainly not alone. Money is a topic that’s highly emotionally and we all have our own individual conversations around it.</p><p>From fears around scarcity to concerns that you’re going to lose it all, money is a topic many of us struggle to talk about or feel in control of.</p><p>It’s why you’re in for a treat today.</p><p>That’s because in this episode, I’m interviewing the incredible Farnoosh Torabi - one of America’s leading finance experts. Over the years, Farnoosh has helped thousands of people master their money and use their wealth to live extraordinary lives.</p><p>Farnoosh is the real deal with a career that’s included everything 3 best-selling books and a primetime series on CNN, to regular columns in O and The Oprah magazine . She also has an award-winning podcast - <em>So Money</em> - which has attracted millions of views along with world-renown guests such as Tony Robbins and Robert Kiyosaki.</p><p>So sit back, listen to a master, and discover the mindsets and strategies you need to take control of your money so you feel empowered to use it to create a live you love.</p><p><em>“Wealth doesn’t have to be a mansion. It can just be moving your schedule around without financial consequence to do something you value a lot more.”</em></p><p>Money can be such an awkward topic of conversation, but with Farnoosh it just flows effortlessly.</p><p>She’s so fluent talking about all aspects of money that we were able to dive deep into some interesting angles and ideas.</p><p>For example, in this episode you’ll discover why the clues to your money blocks lie in your childhood experiences. Yup, it’s time to go down memory lane so you can discover your money context.</p><p>You’ll also discover the value of creating a ‘Financial Fortress’ as well as specific things you can do to change your mindset around money to make you feel more empowered.</p><p>Money won’t buy you happiness, but it does buy you choice. It’s a resource that creates opportunities, and gives you more autonomy and control over your life. It’s why money is a topic that deserves your attention - because regardless of where you are right now you can change how things will be in the future.</p><p>And this episode could well become the start point for an entirely new mindset and set of experiences around this powerful resource.</p><p>Can’t wait to hear what you take from this week’s conversation.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I don’t believe anything that happens is by chance. Every person that comes across our path, whether we like the interaction or not, it’s all for a purpose.”</em></p><p>If you recognize today’s guest from the TV, you’d be right! That’s because in this episode I’m interviewing no other than Josh Stuart from the Discovery Channel Reality TV show, ‘Diesel Brothers.’</p><p>Josh, otherwise known as ‘Redbeard’ is one of the most grounded people I know, and after chatting to him, it’s easy to see why. Josh grew up in Roosevelt, UT in the Uintah Basin which is part of a native American Indian reservation. It meant from an early age, Josh was introduced to the idea of connection between all things. He was raised on the idea that nature offers messages from the universe and if you’re alert enough, you can see the signs.</p><p>Josh finally got back on the spiritual path around five years ago after meeting his wife.</p><p>Now, he lives his life in deep connection with the energies all around us. Unsurprisingly, it’s a core topic in this episode.</p><p>So if you’re curious to discover more about how the universe talks with us, listen in now.</p><p>Josh is someone I couldn’t wait to go down the rabbit hole with - and I wasn’t disappointed! The conversation we had was beautiful, thought-provoking, and deep. And you get to be a fly on the wall when you tune in now.</p><p><em>“I believe that we all chose to be here and chose our challenges because we knew that those challenges would create certain strengths in us.”</em></p><p>This conversation is more than a discovery of Josh’s life, it’s also a deep dive into a beautiful philosophy about living.</p><p>I found some of Josh’s distinctions incredibly powerful. For example, Josh believes that everything in life happens FOR you, not TO you. He believes that our souls choose our particular path though life in order to acquire certain lessons and experiences. With this perspective, he’s able to ride every wave that comes - the good and the bad.</p><p>We chat about Josh’s love of jujitsu and how a dedication to his practice allows him to navigate everyday life with more grace and discipline.</p><p>We talk about gratitude and we talk about the power of money and what wealth is actually about.</p><p>This episode will open you up to a new way of thinking about challenges, desires, and everyday moments. It’s a story about creating extraordinary by becoming increasingly aware.</p><p>And in this age when we’re nose deep in our phones, I think Josh’s message is especially potent. Can’t wait to see what you think.</p><p><em>“Life is telling us exactly what to do, if we just pay attention.”</em></p><p>How to contact Josh</p><ul><li><a href="http://www.dieselpowergear.com/" target="_blank">www.DieselPowerGear.com</a></li><li>Facebook: @redbearddiesel</li><li>Follow Josh on Instagram: @red.beard</li><li>Check out Josh’s TV show - <a href="https://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/diesel-brothers/" target="_blank">www.discovery.com/tv-shows/diesel-brothers/</a></li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Unsurprisingly, it’s a core topic in this episode.</p><p>So if you’re curious to discover more about how the universe talks with us, listen in now.</p><p>Josh is someone I couldn’t wait to go down the rabbit hole with - and I wasn’t disappointed! The conversation we had was beautiful, thought-provoking, and deep. And you get to be a fly on the wall when you tune in now.</p><p><em>“I believe that we all chose to be here and chose our challenges because we knew that those challenges would create certain strengths in us.”</em></p><p>This conversation is more than a discovery of Josh’s life, it’s also a deep dive into a beautiful philosophy about living.</p><p>I found some of Josh’s distinctions incredibly powerful. For example, Josh believes that everything in life happens FOR you, not TO you. He believes that our souls choose our particular path though life in order to acquire certain lessons and experiences. With this perspective, he’s able to ride every wave that comes - the good and the bad.</p><p>We chat about Josh’s love of jujitsu and how a dedication to his practice allows him to navigate everyday life with more grace and discipline.</p><p>We talk about gratitude and we talk about the power of money and what wealth is actually about.</p><p>This episode will open you up to a new way of thinking about challenges, desires, and everyday moments. It’s a story about creating extraordinary by becoming increasingly aware.</p><p>And in this age when we’re nose deep in our phones, I think Josh’s message is especially potent. Can’t wait to see what you think.</p><p><em>“Life is telling us exactly what to do, if we just pay attention.”</em></p><p>How to contact Josh</p><ul><li><a href="http://www.dieselpowergear.com/" target="_blank">www.DieselPowerGear.com</a></li><li>Facebook: @redbearddiesel</li><li>Follow Josh on Instagram: @red.beard</li><li>Check out Josh’s TV show - <a href="https://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/diesel-brothers/" target="_blank">www.discovery.com/tv-shows/diesel-brothers/</a></li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I have learned and I teach that the only opinion that matters is mine. The only opinion about you that matters is yours.”</em></p><p>Diane Forster’s rock bottom moment happened in the bathroom of her family home when she decided to take her own life.</p><p>To the outside world, Diane seemed to have it all. She had the relationship and the successful corporate career, but inside she felt empty. Eventually, she reached the point when she couldn’t take it anymore. Then Diane felt her late mother’s presence and heard her voice telling her to put the pills down and get help - so she could help others.</p><p>Turns out your breaking point can be the most beautiful gift because from this peak emotional experience arises fresh opportunities.</p><p>In that moment, life changed. Diane’s mother died when she was just 53, but here she was providing guidance when Diane needed it most. What came next for Diane was a journey back to herself.</p><p>A journey of forgiveness, of compassion, and of reinvention to the point where Diane now helps others to live intentional, inspired, passionate lives - every single day.</p><p>So get ready to dive in and discover the tools, mindsets, and beliefs that will enable you to move beyond rock bottom and create an extraordinary life for yourself.&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Not forgiving is so debilitating. Carrying around anger, resentment, shame, guilt — any of those negative emotions — will literally eat away at you.”</em></p><p>Diane Forster is an incredible woman who radiates joy and passion for the work she does.</p><p>She is an Award-Winning Inventor, Best Selling Author, TEDx Speaker, TV Host, Podcaster, Intentional Living Expert and Re-Invention Specialist. Diane is also the CEO and Founder of I HAVE TODAY - A book, TV Show, and platform that helps women live enriched, empowered, inspiring lives through their transitions, to reinvent themselves.</p><p>I loved this conversation because we covered it all. We explore the power of forgiveness and how there are three stages you need to move through. We speak about the way we’re all supported and guided by a higher consciousness. We also discuss what it takes to be get inspired and how you can turn insights into momentum to drive you into to the life you want.</p><p>We talk about creativity, meditation, and the power of self-acceptance along with judgement, why we never feel enough, and the importance of looking out for signs.</p><p>In short, we dance through it all!</p><p>You’ll find that Diane’s philosophy on life is just beautiful - I promise she’s going to inspire you.</p><p>She’s an advocate for the idea that all you have is today.</p><p>And because of that, Diane lives intentionally with a commitment to make every day different, special, and extraordinary.</p><p>We can all live out our lives like Diane.</p><p>We can all tap into the resourcefulness and curiosity within to discover who we really are and what we want to do. We all have the power to create, expand, and grow so we can enjoy everything life has to offer.</p><p>So if you want a kick-start to a life you love, this episode is a no-brainer.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>This week’s guest ended up becoming the CEO of a tech company that he first discovered as a user.</p><p>Dan Clark was one of Brain.fm’s very first users. If you’re not familiar with Brain.fm, it’s a tool that maximizes productivity through music that boosts focus and gets you into your flow state with ease. It’s a tool I use (and recommend) and something I describe as <em>‘audio adderall’!</em></p><p>I first went down the rabbit hole with Dan in a bar in New York City. We were supposed to be watching the Texas game, but instead had a four-hour conversation about life, passion, and persistence.</p><p>It was so inspiring for me that I couldn’t wait to get Dan on the show so you could get a taste of his wisdom. He’s another incredible example of someone who’s living a passionate life by doing things that convention says shouldn’t be possible.</p><p>So take a listen to his episode now and discover the full story behind his journey with Brain.FM, why he started out for free, and the 12 persistent phone calls that kick-started it all. You’ll also discover Dan’s personal take on productivity, giving, and why he loves to travel, cook, and do adventurous things (such as deciding to step foot on all seven continents).</p><p>It’s a doozy of an episode to kick-start your 2019 and I know you’re going to take a ton away.&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Humans are the only creatures that can instill habits in themselves. So start really small, work on something, accomplish it and then do something a little bit bigger.”</em></p><p>One of the things I love most about this episode is Dan’s commitment to doing work that he loves.</p><p>[You have to be pretty passionate to work for someone for free, right?]</p><p>But as you’ll discover, this is an empowering and inspiring approach to life. Dan and I share a similar set of beliefs - that you’re here on earth for a limited amount of time and so you’d better make the most of that time.</p><p>You better create ‘the biggest splash possible’.</p><p>Want to inject some of this philosophy into your New Year plans?</p><p>Then tune into this episode of the Stay Grounded Podcast to discover ideas, strategies, and daily practices that will help you be your best self and do more with your time in the months ahead.</p><p>Can’t wait to hear your takeaways.</p><p><em>“Gratitude provides the foundation, curiosity is the skyscraper. I think sitting in this skyscraper and looking down at what you accomplished is the thing that keeps me grounded and pushes me to keep building skyscrapers.”</em></p><p>Host: Raj Jana</p><p>Guest: Dan Clark</p><p>Resources:</p><p>To try the app: <a href="https://brain.fm/" target="_blank">Brain.fm</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/brainfmapp/" target="_blank">@brainfmapp</a></p><p>To get in touch with Dan: <a href="mailto:dan@brain.fm" target="_blank">dan@brain.fm</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

We were supposed to be watching the Texas game, but instead had a four-hour conversation about life, passion, and persistence.</p><p>It was so inspiring for me that I couldn’t wait to get Dan on the show so you could get a taste of his wisdom. He’s another incredible example of someone who’s living a passionate life by doing things that convention says shouldn’t be possible.</p><p>So take a listen to his episode now and discover the full story behind his journey with Brain.FM, why he started out for free, and the 12 persistent phone calls that kick-started it all. You’ll also discover Dan’s personal take on productivity, giving, and why he loves to travel, cook, and do adventurous things (such as deciding to step foot on all seven continents).</p><p>It’s a doozy of an episode to kick-start your 2019 and I know you’re going to take a ton away.&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Humans are the only creatures that can instill habits in themselves. So start really small, work on something, accomplish it and then do something a little bit bigger.”</em></p><p>One of the things I love most about this episode is Dan’s commitment to doing work that he loves.</p><p>[You have to be pretty passionate to work for someone for free, right?]</p><p>But as you’ll discover, this is an empowering and inspiring approach to life. Dan and I share a similar set of beliefs - that you’re here on earth for a limited amount of time and so you’d better make the most of that time.</p><p>You better create ‘the biggest splash possible’.</p><p>Want to inject some of this philosophy into your New Year plans?</p><p>Then tune into this episode of the Stay Grounded Podcast to discover ideas, strategies, and daily practices that will help you be your best self and do more with your time in the months ahead.</p><p>Can’t wait to hear your takeaways.</p><p><em>“Gratitude provides the foundation, curiosity is the skyscraper. I think sitting in this skyscraper and looking down at what you accomplished is the thing that keeps me grounded and pushes me to keep building skyscrapers.”</em></p><p>Host: Raj Jana</p><p>Guest: Dan Clark</p><p>Resources:</p><p>To try the app: <a href="https://brain.fm/" target="_blank">Brain.fm</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/brainfmapp/" target="_blank">@brainfmapp</a></p><p>To get in touch with Dan: <a href="mailto:dan@brain.fm" target="_blank">dan@brain.fm</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

We discuss his journey of self awareness and how he came to this journey of personal evolution. He discussed his experience with depression at age 13; being an immigrant, he was subjected to a lot of bullying and eventually joined a gang as an act of rebellion. That same year he attempted suicide and it was surviving that experience that gave him a renewed energy for life. These moments of renewal continued to show up in his life - what he describes as “deaths” and “rebirths;” there would be things in the Universe that would pull him to a mini death of what his life was at that moment and into a rebirth process of following his truth and his heart.</p><br><p>[9:10] “If you’re sensitive enough or awake enough, staying stuck in whatever life you’re in, even if it seems good on the surface - I can listen my soul crying, I could feel that pain inside”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Dima says that the pain of not living the life of your desired dreams can trigger a quick, mini death that drives things forward, brings about change, growth and evolution or it can feel like a&nbsp;more slow, painful death from the inside out. On the other side of that pain exists courage, strength and even naivety to keep moving forward, often into the unknown.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[12:15] I asked him how to tune into that voice, especially when things are going well. How do you hear the voice and how do you learn to trust it? We’re surrounded by voices, from the people in our lives, including our own. The lesson is figuring out how to understand them so that we can decipher which are the messages from divine guidance/intuition. Dima mentioned it’s important to develop this relationship with those voices so that we can be aware of them since they don’t always come from our higher self. Knowing the difference gives us the power to choose.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[18:12] We talk about the power of authenticity and vulnerability. I talk to Dima about vulnerability and how it plays in his life. His biggest lesson has been learning to share his truth with himself and others. He says that our world becomes a reflection of ourselves and he wants to live in a world where people are vulnerable and free to authentically express, that has to start with him!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[18:57] We all want to be seen, that’s the deepest human need and vulnerability is the key. It unlocks our own doors and breaks down the walls for us to be seen for who we are. It also does the same for others, giving them room to tear down their walls allows for an authentic connection. We also touch on navigating the need to be seen versus the need to be validated. Dima says validation and vulnerability doesn’t always jive.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[26:30] Being vulnerable when you feel like the world is expecting something from you&nbsp;has happened to Dima multiple times - especially w/ having to reconcile his internal feelings with having an external identity that’s based on clarity, vision and an ability to lead. He had a recent experience after Burning Man and had a vulnerable conversation with his leadership team about what he was able to contribute.&nbsp;By addressing his limitations, he created a conversation with his team around their dreams and visions, followed by a discussion on how they could manifest them into the culture without having to rely on him to contribute at full capacity.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[32:31] “Truth is more powerful than any of the most powerful lies” was his response when I asked him why he thinks that things tend to line up when we lean into radical honesty and authenticity. Even if it doesn’t appear that way, honoring our truth is always more aligned with what the Universe is conjuring up.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[38:27] We talk about Dima’s spoken word and what led him to expressing artistically,</p><p>‘Art is the outlet for whatever wants to come through us that doesn’t always find a channel through the rest of our lives.” He rapped as a teenager and channeled a lot of his darkness and anger. He picked up spoken word at age 25, a time when he was going through a heartbreak. Spoken world has also became a safe way for him to express his emotions.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[45:03} Dima shares how he stays grounded with yoga, meditation and journaling. He hasn’t been consistent with each practice but he makes sure to maintain at least one; currently, it’s journaling. He journals 3 pages of stream of consciousness writing daily. Dima suggests that we all do something each day that serves us and to do it consistently.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>“I had this realization that the greatest gift of being a human is the gift of imperfection. The gods or the universe don’t have the luxury of making mistakes and we do. So I relish in how many mistakes I get to make.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s officially the most wonderful time of the year, everyone! December is my favorite month, with the new year, literally, right around the corner, this is when I like to take a pause, sit back and reflect on the year. What worked, what didn’t work, what are the areas where I can evolve and grow in the upcoming year? 2018 shot by and it’s important that you take a moment to get grounded and align your mindset for success heading into the New Year!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Speaking of success, I can’t wait for you to tune into today’s episode of Stay Grounded. Ian Stanley is a stand up comedian, film maker and one of the best copywriters in the world, selling over $100 million worth of products in the last several years.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ian joins us today to chat about his journey as an entrepreneur and the session with psychotherapist Brent Charleton that changed his life, his business and set him on a new trajectory of success.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>After that session, Ian and Brent joined forces to create the <a href="https://www.lionheartworkshop.com/" target="_blank">LionHeart</a> workshop, designed to help uncover and resolve the hidden blocks keeping you from success in business, money, personal relationships, confidence or wherever you’re feeling stuck.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I’ve know Ian for a few years and can speak first hand to his transformation. Seeing his journey has been an awesome experience, as I’m always inspired to see entrepreneurs reach a new level of growth.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, Ian and I talk about fear, pain, and why you need to put yourself through the discomfort of growth. We chat about the core problem with entrepreneurs and their inability to slow down - and the damage this causes. We also discussed Ian’s ‘Brad Pitt of dogs’ and the two wolf story that can determine whether you live a life of fear or a life of love and joy. There’s so much good stuff to dive into. So if you’re always working…If you constantly self-sabotage your success…And if you have issues with money…You should definitely tune into this episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Also, heads up. You’re going to hear “teen” and “child” frequently throughout this conversation. This isn’t a reference to either my or Ian’s children or to young Ian and young Raj. The work we’re discussing is based on the 3 Ego States: The Wounded Child, The Adaptive Teen and the Functioning Adult.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Host: Raj Jana</p><p>Guest: Ian Stanely</p><p>Resources: <a href="https://www.lionheartworkshop.com/" target="_blank">LionHeart</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode is perfect for you if you:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Are looking to make waves in 2019 as entrepreneur, in your career or with overall success.</li><li>Want to reach the next level in business or in your personal life and can’t figure out where to begin.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Want to align your mindset with your actions and cultivate a life of gratitude, contentment and happiness.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[07:25] Having already had so much success ,we discuss why Ian felt the need to see a therapist. He discusses how the things that worked in the past were no longer serving him (this is common for a lot of entrepreneurs) and kept hearing from different masterminds that it would be beneficial for him to go!</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[10:41] This is where we get into the “why,” things that once worked him, stopped working. Ian talks about how these processes were built during his “adaptive teen” phase, the hustle and grind phase. As you move beyond that ego state to the state of the “functioning adult,” your teen has a hard mellowing out and decompressing.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[12:03] Ian tells us about his moment of enlightenment, it hit when he was 19. As great as it was, he noticed that being cut off from negative emotions left him numb because he was also unable to tap into positivity. He says the work to staying grounded and aware never stops - the degrees to it just change.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[16:08] Ian talks about how powerful a doing a correction is for tackling old, hindering habits. Now, when his teen makes a cameo appearance - he doesn’t feel the need to succumb to that hustle mentality. The adult takes the reigns, acknowledges the teen and takes the approach to care for himself.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[17:53] Both the child and the teen are defined by fear. No surprise, right? Ian says that inside each of us, there’s a part of us that’s scared (the child) and a part of us that’s trying to protect us from that fear (the teen).</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[20:21] Stand up is the thing that gets Ian’s heart pumping, it also triggers a lot of fear for him. He talked about the shame and guilt he experienced around stand up and realizing that the fear is stemming from this being the thing that he’s supposed to do. He says there’s “no greater fear than becoming who you are.”</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[24:50] I ask Ian why someone so successful, and aware of it, would put themselves through all of that emotional work? He says most people, when they actually take a minute to look, find that there’s something missing.The problem is, especially w/ entrepreneurs, is that they don’t slow down enough to take that look.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[32:24] Ian shares a heartfelt story about being reminded about a winner’s mindset and shares with us how feed the good wolf while reconciling the existence of the bad wolf. “Our attachment to emotions is what defines them as “good” or ‘“bad” and each&nbsp;moment we can either resist what’s happening (bad wolf) or surrender to the fact that this moment is your reality and exactly what’s supposed to be happening.”</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[42:14] I ask Ian how he makes the connection between challenges in his health and diet to other areas of his life.&nbsp;He checks in with himself to identify areas where things are going well - typically there’s a correlation. Ex: Having great success at work, being unable to handle that and using that fear to sabotage your body or your relationships.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[55:15] To stay grounded, Ian visualizes his life in the future with a perspective that it won’t necessarily be better, it’ll just be different. Also being in the adult state, you realize that everyone has equal value and we all just express it differently. We all have our own stuff and it comes from things beyond our control - we’re all just trying our best.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>How to contact</p><p>You can find more about Ian and Fixt Water via <a href="http://www.fixtwater.com" target="_blank">www.fixtwater.com</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

The work we’re discussing is based on the 3 Ego States: The Wounded Child, The Adaptive Teen and the Functioning Adult.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Host: Raj Jana</p><p>Guest: Ian Stanely</p><p>Resources: <a href="https://www.lionheartworkshop.com/" target="_blank">LionHeart</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode is perfect for you if you:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Are looking to make waves in 2019 as entrepreneur, in your career or with overall success.</li><li>Want to reach the next level in business or in your personal life and can’t figure out where to begin.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Want to align your mindset with your actions and cultivate a life of gratitude, contentment and happiness.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[07:25] Having already had so much success ,we discuss why Ian felt the need to see a therapist. He discusses how the things that worked in the past were no longer serving him (this is common for a lot of entrepreneurs) and kept hearing from different masterminds that it would be beneficial for him to go!</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[10:41] This is where we get into the “why,” things that once worked him, stopped working. Ian talks about how these processes were built during his “adaptive teen” phase, the hustle and grind phase. As you move beyond that ego state to the state of the “functioning adult,” your teen has a hard mellowing out and decompressing.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[12:03] Ian tells us about his moment of enlightenment, it hit when he was 19. As great as it was, he noticed that being cut off from negative emotions left him numb because he was also unable to tap into positivity. He says the work to staying grounded and aware never stops - the degrees to it just change.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[16:08] Ian talks about how powerful a doing a correction is for tackling old, hindering habits. Now, when his teen makes a cameo appearance - he doesn’t feel the need to succumb to that hustle mentality. The adult takes the reigns, acknowledges the teen and takes the approach to care for himself.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[17:53] Both the child and the teen are defined by fear. No surprise, right? Ian says that inside each of us, there’s a part of us that’s scared (the child) and a part of us that’s trying to protect us from that fear (the teen).</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[20:21] Stand up is the thing that gets Ian’s heart pumping, it also triggers a lot of fear for him. He talked about the shame and guilt he experienced around stand up and realizing that the fear is stemming from this being the thing that he’s supposed to do. He says there’s “no greater fear than becoming who you are.”</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[24:50] I ask Ian why someone so successful, and aware of it, would put themselves through all of that emotional work? He says most people, when they actually take a minute to look, find that there’s something missing.The problem is, especially w/ entrepreneurs, is that they don’t slow down enough to take that look.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[32:24] Ian shares a heartfelt story about being reminded about a winner’s mindset and shares with us how feed the good wolf while reconciling the existence of the bad wolf. “Our attachment to emotions is what defines them as “good” or ‘“bad” and each&nbsp;moment we can either resist what’s happening (bad wolf) or surrender to the fact that this moment is your reality and exactly what’s supposed to be happening.”</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[42:14] I ask Ian how he makes the connection between challenges in his health and diet to other areas of his life.&nbsp;He checks in with himself to identify areas where things are going well - typically there’s a correlation. Ex: Having great success at work, being unable to handle that and using that fear to sabotage your body or your relationships.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>[55:15] To stay grounded, Ian visualizes his life in the future with a perspective that it won’t necessarily be better, it’ll just be different. Also being in the adult state, you realize that everyone has equal value and we all just express it differently. We all have our own stuff and it comes from things beyond our control - we’re all just trying our best.</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>How to contact</p><p>You can find more about Ian and Fixt Water via <a href="http://www.fixtwater.com" target="_blank">www.fixtwater.com</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I actually am more brother and sister with people that are across incredibly diverse paths and walks of life than I had ever imagined.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this 50th episode (woohoo!) of the Stay Grounded Podcast, I wanted to bring you an extra special guest to mark this big milestone.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And Matthew Abrams delivered. Matthew’s passion (and life purpose) is to support individuals and collectives to reach their fullest potential. He does this by creating and holding courageous spaces where people feel safe to explore with vulnerability, and honesty.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The reason Matthew can do this so beautifully is because of his rich curiosity for himself and his fellow humans. After spending 9 months travelling, living, and working in really diverse cultures Matthew learned first hand how similar we all are - and how are differences can create deep connection.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We just have to be prepared to pull away the veil.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“There’s something in the space between you and me that’s magic and only together through curiosity and exploration and a commitment to that pursuit can we find it.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode is about collective evolution as much as it is about individual development.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matthew addresses the sensitive issue of privilege, religion, and the barriers to wholeness in ourselves and as a collective. Could understanding that we all have a different piece of the puzzle help us find common ground and unite as one?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s a conversation that can get uncomfortable - Matthew acknowledges this, but inspires us to go to the uncomfortable edge because that’s where all the growth lies.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So brace yourselves for a deep discussion about courage, curiosity, and the need to understand yourself - so you can understand others. Dive into a conversation about vulnerable connection, deep self-awareness, and what can happen when we’re unwilling to go to get curious and walk through the doors that open..</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I was so inspired by Matt’s presence and his philosophies - and I’m sure you will feel exactly the same.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So settle into this episode and let yourself be inspired and uplifted by your friend, the incredible Matthew Abrams.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“I love holding spaces that are courageous places to explore vulnerability, to explore connection, to explore personal discovery and collective achievement - that’s why I’m on this planet.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>How did you learn to navigate life in the artful way that you do?

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“We’re all human beings and we all crave connection with other human beings.”</em></p><p>In this episode, I get to speak with the incredible Ken Blackman - a sex and relationship expert who focuses on sex, intimacy, and connection.</p><p>I believe your life is a product of your relationships - whether that’s with your friends, parents, your partner, your kids, or your work colleagues. In my own life I’ve found that the better your relationships, the better your life becomes so I couldn’t wait to get an expert perspective on something we all struggle with to some degree.</p><p>We’re social beings - we CRAVE connection - but it’s also an area of lives where we can find it difficult to have what we really want.</p><p>And in this episode, you’ll get some insights that will help you understand why that is.</p><p><em>“Courage is NOT fearlessness.”</em></p><p>Although Ken has been coaching for over 20 years, he wasn't always a relationship expert. Previously, he worked at Apple, but he found his true passion after struggling with intimate relationships himself.</p><p>Ken used to believe he had it all going against him - that he was a ‘hopeless case’. He didn’t see himself as attractive or charming. Instead, he saw himself as short, shy, and introverted - until he changed ONE thing.</p><p>And that’s just one of the topics we cover in this deep conversation.</p><p>So if you’re socially awkward, or you struggle with intimacy, or you just find connection hard, you’re going to want to tune into this episode. I promise you’ll take away some insight and some practical ideas that are going to transform the way you interact with the people in your life.</p><p>So enjoy!</p><p><em>“I learned that the only thing that mattered in my relationships is how I felt about myself.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Let’s go back to that first year. How did you become a relationship expert, what drew you to that, and how was it starting something new when you came from a corporate background. [1:10]</li><li>You mentioned that what happens in the bedroom is a microcosm for what’s happening in the entire relationship. What role does self-awareness play in this? [4:55]</li><li>What are some of the things you did that made you feel good about yourself? [7:21]</li><li>Do you think self awareness and self belief are the same thing? [8:36]</li><li>Why do you think facing your fears allowed you to feel better about yourself and shaped the man you are today? [10:22]</li><li>How do you turn things around if you’re afraid of social situations? [14:45]</li><li>Is vulnerability an absolute must for connection? [17:00]</li><li>How does emotional intelligence help you build a fulfilling life? [22:16]</li><li>How can you develop intuition and then use it to make sound decisions?

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“We’re all human beings and we all crave connection with other human beings.”</em></p><p>In this episode, I get to speak with the incredible Ken Blackman - a sex and relationship expert who focuses on sex, intimacy, and connection.</p><p>I believe your life is a product of your relationships - whether that’s with your friends, parents, your partner, your kids, or your work colleagues. In my own life I’ve found that the better your relationships, the better your life becomes so I couldn’t wait to get an expert perspective on something we all struggle with to some degree.</p><p>We’re social beings - we CRAVE connection - but it’s also an area of lives where we can find it difficult to have what we really want.</p><p>And in this episode, you’ll get some insights that will help you understand why that is.</p><p><em>“Courage is NOT fearlessness.”</em></p><p>Although Ken has been coaching for over 20 years, he wasn't always a relationship expert. Previously, he worked at Apple, but he found his true passion after struggling with intimate relationships himself.</p><p>Ken used to believe he had it all going against him - that he was a ‘hopeless case’. He didn’t see himself as attractive or charming. Instead, he saw himself as short, shy, and introverted - until he changed ONE thing.</p><p>And that’s just one of the topics we cover in this deep conversation.</p><p>So if you’re socially awkward, or you struggle with intimacy, or you just find connection hard, you’re going to want to tune into this episode. I promise you’ll take away some insight and some practical ideas that are going to transform the way you interact with the people in your life.</p><p>So enjoy!</p><p><em>“I learned that the only thing that mattered in my relationships is how I felt about myself.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Let’s go back to that first year. How did you become a relationship expert, what drew you to that, and how was it starting something new when you came from a corporate background. [1:10]</li><li>You mentioned that what happens in the bedroom is a microcosm for what’s happening in the entire relationship. What role does self-awareness play in this? [4:55]</li><li>What are some of the things you did that made you feel good about yourself? [7:21]</li><li>Do you think self awareness and self belief are the same thing? [8:36]</li><li>Why do you think facing your fears allowed you to feel better about yourself and shaped the man you are today? [10:22]</li><li>How do you turn things around if you’re afraid of social situations? [14:45]</li><li>Is vulnerability an absolute must for connection? [17:00]</li><li>How does emotional intelligence help you build a fulfilling life? [22:16]</li><li>How can you develop intuition and then use it to make sound decisions? [32:56]</li><li>Does the fear voice get quieter or does it get smarter? [37:10]</li><li>How do the best relationships stay grounded? [48:25]</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>How Ken’s relationship challenges and the transformation he personally experienced, kick-started his coaching journey.[2:51]</li><li>Why changing the way you feel about yourself can change your experience in relationships.

He was outgoing, social, and identified himself as an athlete.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But that all changed in his second semester when he got diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. Used to peak fitness and endless physical energy, Frank started to experience intense stomach pains and blood in his stools - on a daily basis. Sport became painful and Frank’s social life dried up because he never wanted to be far from a toilet.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>After 18 months of declining health, Frank put his trust in the doctors and agreed to have his colon removed. This involved major surgery and a length recovery process. Frank felt better for a few months, then the pain started all over again.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, Frank tells his story of finding positivity amongst this chaos.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He shares how he was able to learn from his dwindling health to take control of his life and find a way to be of service to others.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“I was going to get advice from everyone and filter that through my own decision-making system.

He realized the problem wasn’t just in his physical body - it was connected to his emotions and mindset too.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Betting on yourself is probably one of the most accelerated tracks of genuine personal development that you’ll ever go down.”</em></p><p>In this episode I dive deep into the rabbit hole with psychotherapist and the ‘Shrink for Entrepreneurs’ - Peter Shallard.</p><p>Peter started his business journey in his homeland of New Zealand with a brick and mortar psychotherapy clinic. After a local business owner became a client, Peter was inspired to explore entrepreneurialism to build his own practice. This kick-started a love affair with business and how business can be used as a tool for accelerated human growth and development.</p><p>Fast-forward a decade, and Peter now works with entrepreneurs to help them achieve wealth, freedom, and sanity (the ultimate hat trick for entrepreneurs) so they’re in a position to figure out ‘what next’ - because that’s the place where life gets most fulfilling.</p><p>This episode is incredible. Peter is obsessed with understanding what makes people tick and why they’re compelled to do the things they do. Peter’s depth of insight is profound and it’s remarkable to hear him articulate the different dimensions of the psyche. It’s an episode I just know you’re going to take a ton away from.</p><p>The freedom-responsibility paradox: <em>“Freedom is a great value to get you moving, but ultimately what you end up building requires a shouldering of some responsibility.”</em></p><p>Peter believes that now is the best time to be alive. Thanks to technology we have the ability to do so much. It’s one of the reasons that entrepreneurialism is such an attractive path to take through life.</p><p>Business helps you figure out your purpose and is a vehicle to uncover meaning. It drives personal development and growth too thanks to all the paradoxes you move through. So listen in…</p><p>You’ll hear an incredible conversation about suffering, pain, chaos, and struggle, and why we need these in our lives. You’ll learn how true freedom can only come from the shouldering of responsibility and you’ll hear why the service of others is the most powerful route to fulfillment.</p><p>Whether you’re a business owner.or not, I promise you will not view your work through the same lens after you’ve listened to this episode. It’s informative, inspiring, but above all transformative.</p><p><em>“I’m happiest and most centered when I’m drinking coffee and reading a good book.”</em></p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>What was it about the field of business psychology that attracted you in the first place? [5:47]</li><li>What was the shift that made you want to learn about sales, marketing, and copywriting? [12:25]</li><li>How did you train/brainwash your subconscious to ensure it was on your side as you made this shift? [15:58]</li><li>What are the similarities between people who are going through really dark stuff and people who have an eternal optimism about them? [20:15]</li><li>How do you recognize the fear patterns in your own life so you can bring them to the surface and solve them? [24:10]</li><li>What’s the value of uncovering those demons by putting yourself through so much struggle - what makes the journey worth it? [26:10]</li><li>How do you view responsibility? [28:40]</li><li>How does the pursuit of purpose in the shouldering of responsibility fuel some people? [31:50]</li><li>How do you train yourself to notice when the right opportunities show up in life? [34:56]</li><li>How do you change your relationship with hardship? [39:35]</li><li>In the midst of everything, how do you stay grounded? [47:53]</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><ul><li>How a business owner client turned things around for Peter. [9:00]</li><li>How Peter used his psychotherapy background to become a more effective and impactful sales person. [17:40]</li><li>Why Peter recommends that entrepreneurs should get a job. [19:00]</li><li>The challenges we all have in common - regardless of who we are. [21:00]</li><li>Why taking on the challenge to create something from nothing is one of the most valuable things you can do for your own personal journey. [25:01]</li><li>The number one reason why people stop businesses in the western world. [27:30]</li><li>Why our current circumstances have put us on a search for meaning. [32:35]</li><li>Why an obsession with avoiding pain and seeking freedom and what feels good can stifle your personal and business growth.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“An addiction is something that’s covering up something else.”</em></p><p>Jenn Edden has been helping people quit their sugar addiction for over 14 years. As you’ll hear in this episode, this is Jenn’s calling and she’s hugely passionate about the work she does.</p><p>Jenn captivated me because you don’t often hear sugar and addiction in the same sentence. But when you learn that sugar lights up the same part of the brain as cocaine, you realize how serious this addiction can be. I guess that’s what’s most scary. How many times were you given a lollipop when you were hurt or sick as a child?</p><p>Jenn is the real deal. Raised in an addictive family, Jenn admits she’s seen a lot. It’s one of the things that makes her such an authority on this subject. She knows her stuff and she’s going to get you to view sugar in a whole new way.</p><p>Especially if you have kids...</p><p><em>“First answer, right answer.”</em></p><p>As a mom of three, it’s fascinating to learn how Jenn has drawn from her own experiences and teachings to raise kids who have high self-esteem and strong awareness of their emotions. So listen in and discover some of the strategies Jenn uses to stop addiction from bedding down - so you can use them in your own life.</p><p>This episode dives into topics I wasn’t expecting to come up in a conversation about sugar - but as you’ll see they’re all related to addiction. We cover everything from guilt to forgiveness, to goal-setting, delayed gratification, failure, passion, and purpose.</p><p>I loved this episode so much and I know you’re going to love it too. So listen in. You’ll learn a heap about managing addiction, preventing addiction, and ultimately living in a way that’s true to your soul.</p><p><em>“Guilt is a wasted emotion and a learned behavior… Get the lesson and the guilt should melt away.”</em></p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>There are so many addictions out there. How did you decide to focus on sugar? [1:20]</li><li>When was the moment you realized enough was enough with the sugar in your life? [3:35]</li><li>Why do you think a near-death experience can help define what’s important for you? [6:48]</li><li>How do you teach kids and teenagers to love themselves? [19:00]</li><li>How does forgiveness play a role in addiction? [23:35]</li><li>What habits do you implement every single day so you can retrain your brain? [28:00]</li><li>Why does gratitude serve as a shield for you from the habits you don’t want to have? [29:59]</li><li>How do you keep track of your lessons? [25:23]</li><li>If you haven’t gone through a rock bottom, how do you create a rock bottom experience for yourself so that you can have the same level of knowledge? [36:50]</li><li>How do you stay grounded on a daily basis? [45:24]</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><ul><li>Where does addiction come from? [9:00]</li><li>How you can know if you’re addicted to something. [12:26]</li><li>The most important lessons Jenn learned from her parents. [22:20]</li><li>The three words that can heal anything. [24:20]</li><li>How guilt is linked to sugar. [25:50]</li><li>Jenn’s 1-minute journaling practice that helps keep her aware and stops her getting into old stuff.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“The ego uses the past to predict the future… By holding onto the past, you’re just creating the same pattern.”</em></p><p>This episode’s guest didn’t think she’d make it to her 40s.</p><p>Raised by immigrant parents, Adamaris was brought up with the belief that you have to work hard for everything. She was taught that no one was going to give her anything - she had to do it all herself.</p><p>So that’s what she did.</p><p>As a high achiever, Adamaris committed to the grind and tackled life the ‘world’s way’. She worked her way through the education system to ace college and get a masters degree before landing a corporate job in an investment bank.</p><p>Then she worked and worked until she reached the point where her body couldn’t take it anymore.</p><p>Thanks to severe adrenal exhaustion, Adamaris’s dream fell apart. Incapable of work she had no choice, but to quit her job. Suddenly, she was $50k in debt, living at home with her parents, and so broken her body couldn’t even digest foods - only liquids.</p><p>It was an insane low that became the ‘gift’ which transformed Adamaris’s life.</p><p><em>“Instead of feeling fear as something bad, I just shift it into WOW - some change is coming. I’m going to another level and getting new information.”</em></p><p>When you’re at rock bottom, it can feel alien to surrender to the now - especially when hard work and hustle is all you know. But the truth is, we can’t do it all alone.</p><p>It’s only when you surrender that you can activate the energetic source that created everything.</p><p>As soon as Adamaris opened the door to help, she received it. This kick-started a healing and personal discovery that’s turned Adamaris into the coach and mentor she is today.</p><p>In this incredible episode (which was recorded on Adamaris’ 44th birthday!) we dive deep into key concepts that catalyse growth and self-discovery. We discuss the power of fear before getting into an in-depth discussion about the role of the ego. Listen out for this topic - it’s going to help you understand why repeating patterns show up in your life.</p><p>Adamaris’s story is typical of so many high-achievers who get seduced into the hustle. But as you’ll see, letting go is powerful too - if you want to create a life that’s extraordinary and deeply aligned with your true calling.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“There is no wrong way to live life.”</em></p><p>I’m super pumped for episode 40. It’s another BIG milestone for the Stay Grounded podcast and we’ve got an incredible guest to mark this special occasion.</p><p>Marc Cordon and I have similar roots. As second generation immigrants, we’ve both grown up as minorities trying to find our own version of the American dream. And it’s been one hell of a ride!</p><p>As you’ll hear in this episode, Marc wasn’t always the approachable, compassionate guy you’ll hear today. He used to be ‘an angry Asian’ - desperate to not be Filipino so he could be like everyone else and fit it. But that wasn’t Marc’s destiny. In fact, standing out became the very thing that helped him achieve the success he enjoys today.</p><p>Inspired by Michael Jackson, Marc is the coach that coaches the coaches. A positive psychology expert and the force behind Make Money Coaching Program, Marc’s mission is to empower people and have as much fun as possible.</p><p>So settle in because you’re in for a treat! Along with some incredibly honest life advice, Marc dives into his story from former Asian band, to social justice campaigner, to highly sought after coach. I took a whole ton from this conversation and I know you will too.</p><p><em>“Growth does have pain, but it also has an ecstacy part to it.”</em></p><p>Another thing Marc and I have in common is our obsession with using fear as a positive force.</p><p>In this episode, Marc shares some of the neuroscience and psychology that helps explains why fear shows up and how you can channel it. It’s a game-changer. As you’ll see, this all tracks back to our tribal roots.</p><p>There’s a wake up call right there… because the voice that tells you that you can’t do something stems from just a tiny bundle of cells. The rest of your incredible brain isn’t being used.</p><p>It’s why - as Marc says - positive psychology can only explain so much. The rest of it, you just gotta get out there and life your life. You’ve got to go with the ups, the downs, and the all arounds!</p><p>P.S. Make sure you listen right to the end of this episode and you’ll discover how to grab a FREE copy of Marc’s upcoming book.</p><p><em>“We are built to grow. We are not built to stay the same. We are built to evolve”</em></p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>How did you get into positive psychology? [4:29]</li><li>How did you flip your us v them mentality to one that’s more inclusive and warm? [12:35]</li><li>How does separating suffering from growing pains link back to finding your purpose? [17:14]</li><li>If we’re meant to grow together, how does solo growth fit into the mix and what’s a good balance between the two? [20:15]</li><li>How do you reframe loneliness and turn it into something you can positively use to find happiness and fulfillment? [24:30]</li><li>How do you turn yourself into someone who’s never surprised by change so you can embrace change in your own life? [29:05]</li><li>How do you build belief in your own life and how do you keep fostering that spirit so that you can continue moving forward as you evolve and grow? [31:42]</li><li>How do you train yourself to savor moments? [38:50]</li><li>Once you figured out the distinction between pain and suffering, did you ever have a point in your life when you got pulled back? [44:35]</li><li>In the midst of everything you’ve gone through, how do you remember to stay grounded? [49:50]</li></ul><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><ul><li>What Marc saw was working and how that framed his future life. [6:24]</li><li>How Marc got to play in the ‘best Asian band in the south.’ [8:38]</li><li>‘What went wrong?” The song lyrics that summed up Marc’s life and helped him make a shift. [10:10]</li><li>How Michael Jackson helped Marc figure out what he wanted to do. [11:05]</li><li>Marc’s ‘weak minded view’ of social justice. [12:15]</li><li>Why a conversation about a student’s best class made Marc so angry. [13:51]</li><li>How Marc sees happiness - and the problem with goal setting.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“If you just work with amazing people, helping a billion isn’t as crazy as it sounds.”</em></p><p>I first heard this guest speak at a recent event and I was hooked immediately.</p><p>Dr. Steve Young has, what many would call, a crazy goal.</p><p>In fact he calls his mission to help a BILLION people love their way to building their greatest legacy by providing the tools and systems for success his ‘moonshot’ goal.</p><p>But as you’ll hear in this episode, it’s not as crazy as it sounds.</p><p>Since 2001 Dr. Steve has personally healed over 7 thousand people and influenced countless more indirectly. Using functional medicine and drawing upon science-based principles, Steve helps people resolve their physical ailments so they can return to health and high energy.</p><p>He’s all about the process - not the hacks. Specifically, Steve inspires people to transform their relationship with food so they can regain control of their body and leverage health to live a happier life.</p><p><em>“We all have this ability of heightened intuition. Our reality is so much more than the five senses.</em></p><p><em>“How do I get my productivity in today in a way that is serving of my health and my happiness.”</em></p><p>But this episode is about so much more than food, nutrition and weight loss. Instead, we dig deeper into what drives Dr. Steve to do what he does.</p><p>Steve explains that how we do one thing is how we do everything.</p><p>In other words, whatever you’re doing with food, you’ll be doing with your work and relationships too. But&nbsp;obstacles are just opportunities. When you can transform your roadblocks into a new door, fear dissolves and a new path opens up.</p><p>So if you’d like to live to 150 and you’re ready to explore a new relationship with food, life, goals, and health, you’re going to love this deep conversation with Steve.</p><p>As well as practical tips, we also talk about tuning into the ‘magic’ that’s always there to guide you towards the life where maximum happiness awaits.</p><p>So listen in now and discover why Steve has become one of my favorite people!</p><p><em>“You want to have goals, but you need to practice taking off your blinders and being open to what I call magic.”</em></p><p><em>“Our brains have infinite wisdom.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I became OK with failing - with the possibility that it might not work out. That was where the freedom came.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode’s guest and I have a lot in common.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We both have corporate backgrounds in engineering (in fact, Darla calls herself a recovering engineer!) and we both experienced similar trigger moments that ‘forced’ us to take the leap out on our own.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now, Darla’s life couldn’t be more different! As a coach, she hosts intimate retreats that help people fast-track their learning and get out of their own way.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So if there’s a part of you that’s not fully satisfied with the life you live right now, this episode is for you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Like me, Darla lived her life as convention tells us to do. She did all the right things, but life still slapped her in the face. But sometimes we need to be forced backwards before we can move forward again.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So if you want to get unstuck, listen in as Darla dives deep into her own journey. Along the way, she reveals the hidden beliefs and experiences that are probably holding you back too. Many of which stretch all the way back to when you were just seven-years-old. (Listen out for our discussion around this critical age.)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“We don’t know how much time we have, but I was living like at some point in the future the stars will align and I’ll be able to do my thing.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Darla’s passion is helping people be themselves so they can explore their own unique expression on this planet. Listen out for the reasons why Darla is so driven by this mission. When you understand the wider context of Darla’s work, you’ll see just how significant it really is.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I took so much from this conversation and I know you will too.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Whether you want to pocket a couple techniques to help you break free, get a deeper understanding of the stories that are driving your subconscious mind, or just be inspired by a ‘recovering engineer’ who now spends all her time doing what she loves, this is for you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So settle down and treat yourself to the genius that is Darla Le Doux.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“I have so little drama in my life now because I make the decisions in advance, consciously rather than letting my subconscious take over and then having to pick up the pieces.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“What is this revealing to me?”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“The more we can tune into how we’re feeling and share it, and let people know, the better.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“When you hear the opportunity to get in the door with someone, do it.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>How did you finally make the jump into coaching and what was the trigger point that made it come alive for you. [4:06]</li><li>How did you turn divorce and your stepdad's passing into fuel that helped you move forward? [9:33]</li><li>How did moving through a divorce motivate you to do what you do now and show up as you show up now. [13:36]</li><li>How has your relationship with pain changed over time? [17:40]</li><li>How is your life’s purpose showing up through the work you do right now. [18:44]</li><li>How does your ego line up with your subconscious and influence your day-to-day? [27:00]</li><li>How do you help someone’s ego step aside because it knows you need it. [31:00]</li><li>How do you rewrite your own story? [31:54]</li><li>In the midst of everything you’ve achieved, how do you stay grounded. [48:16]</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Darla’s 10 years in the self help aisle. [4:45]</li><li>What gave Darla the urgency and perspective she needed to make her big life-changing decisions. [10:21]</li><li>How ‘real stuff’ makes us present to life, purpose, and what we want to spend our time doing. [13:10]</li><li>How divorce helped Darla become aware of the subconscious thoughts that were running the show - so she didn’t make the same choices again. [16:23]</li><li>The question that Darla uses to reframe pain. [18:25]</li><li>Why Darla is passionate about retreats and the power they have to help us grow. [19:50]</li><li>Why a lack of connection and intimacy is the cause of the crises we have in the world right now. [21:00]</li><li>How shifting your environment helps you expose the subconscious thoughts so you can see inside yourself. [22:14]</li><li>Why the age of seven is such a critical age. [27:50]</li><li><em>‘Be smart, get loved’</em> - how this story played out and ran Darla’s life. [29:00]</li><li>Why you need to share and validate the parts of you that you hide before you can feel safe&nbsp;showing it to others. [35:02]</li><li>The question to ask throughout the day to tune into your intuition and where you’re at. [36:47]</li><li>How to use live events to create an environment that helps you grow.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Hardship is really what makes us who we are. It’s easy to be an optimist when things are going great, but who are you when things get really difficult?”</em></p><p>Today’s guest is one of the most exciting people I’ve ever met. Ultrarunner, Charlie Engle was the first man to run across the Sahara Desert. He’s a real life action hero too - all documented in a documentary film produced and narrated by Matt Damon (yes, you read that right!)</p><p>What I love about Charlie is his ability to take on and succeed at things which seem humanly impossible.</p><p>Charlie is right at home when he’s neck deep in struggle. In fact, struggle has defined a whole chunk of his life. From crack cocaine and alcohol addiction, to a stay in federal prison, to the extreme feats of physical endurance, Charlie is proof you can survive anything.</p><p>And that’s what we talk about in this episode. Why push yourself to the absolute limits? Why put yourself under so much pain? How do you move beyond exhaustion to achieve things most people can even imagine (wait until you hear about the next ‘crazy’ adventure Charlie’s planning!)</p><p>So brew a cup and listen to an inspiring story of hope about a man will just will NOT give up.</p><p><em>“We spend a whole lot of time worrying about things that are out in the future and out of our control when what we should be doing is focusing on exactly what’s right in front of us.”</em></p><p><em>“It just doesn’t matter what happens to us. It only matters what you do about it. You get a chance to respond in some way to everything that happens to you.”</em></p><p>I’ve got to be honest, I seriously loved talking with Charlie. I come from a similar mindset - that struggle can be transformative and that you can grow and discover more about the person you are as a result of intense challenge.</p><p>It’s like Charlie said, anytime you purposely put yourself into a challenging situation you always learn something from it.</p><p>Often we choose the comfortable path through life (perhaps unknowingly). But I agree with Charlie. <em>“Comfort is overrated”</em> and <em>“comfort as a goal is very unfulfilling.”</em> In Charlie’s words, <em>“I’m not on this planet to have an easy experience. I’m here to do as many things as I can.”</em></p><p>So if you’re curious about the mindset and philosophies of a man who’s more comfortable in struggle than out of it, you’re in for a treat. And if Charlie’s story inspires you to take on a feat of your own, I’d love to hear about it.</p><p><em>“Measuring success for me is finding a way to be OK with unresolved conflicts.”</em></p><p><em>“Continuous forward movement pretty much always wins the day. You don’t have to be awesome all the time. You just have to not give up.”</em></p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>Can you share with us why you started running and why you choose this over everything else? [4:16]</li><li>What motivates you to chase the emotional rewards you get when you finish one of your incredible feats? [7:03]</li><li>What are the similarities between running across the Sahara and overcoming addiction? [9:18]</li><li>You seem to be using struggle to take care of yourself. How do you think struggle and self care go hand in hand? [14:51]</li><li>Why do you think it’s so hard for people to live a life with passion? [18:49]</li><li>How has going through addiction shaped your definition of success? [21:51]</li><li>How do you balance expecting life to be hard with enjoying the fruits of your successes? [24:07]</li><li>What is the most important lesson you’ve learned that reinforces your own philosophy on life? [27:24]</li><li>Dead Sea to the top of Everest. What’s motivating you to do this trip at this time? [30:40]</li><li>How do you reframe challenges to make them seem practical? Is it a skill or experience? [35:36]</li><li>How does resilience differ when the pain is someone else’s? [40:33]</li><li>In the midst of everything you’ve been through, how do you stay grounded on a daily basis? [47:00]</li></ul><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><ul><li>Emotional rewards and what running did to help Charlie turn his life around. [6:40]</li><li>One step at a time mantra and how this connects crossing the Sahara and overcoming addiction. [9:41]</li><li>How to approach first time experiences (which we spend our lives chasing) so they bring possibilities instead of anxieties. [13:45]</li><li>The question that left Charlie speechless and why one of his challenges is to be happy and comfortable when things are ‘ok’. [16:30]</li><li>Why comfort is underrated. [17:20]</li><li><em>‘We compare our insides with other people’s outsides.”</em> - why this can shut down passion and affect how we feel. [19:55]</li><li>Why you have to be comfortable with unresolved conflicts. [23:00]</li><li>Why you don’t have to be perfectly prepared to take on the things you’re planning.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I like to see that what you do in the gym as lab for the rest of your life.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Today’s guest was not naturally athletic.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As a teenager, he was thin - scrawny even. Not the pillar of strength looking back at me through Zoom. But such is the power of goals. After reading the biography of a strongman, Logan wanted to perform at a super high level too. He wanted to accomplish feats of strength that most people could only dream about!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And that’s been his focus since the age of 18 - with incredible results. That’s because just like the strongman who inspired him to step up, Logan can also pull an antique fire truck <em>with his hair!</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So check out this episode and discover how he did it.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Self care is mandatory… If you think you’re going to be at your highest performance without self care, you’re fooling yourself.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I first met today’s guest in New York at an entrepreneurial event we both attended.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There was something about Julian! He had a vibe that made me feel good and made me want to be around him. And I wasn’t alone. I noticed how others had the same experience. When I asked Julian what was going on, he said it was because we had connected to his ‘inner god’ and that he was actively looking for the god in each person he encountered.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We didn’t have time to go into the detail of what this meant, but I was hooked and super curious. I had to know more! So I invited Julian onto the Stay Grounded podcast so we could dig deeper into this concept.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And the depth of insight this discussion unleashed blew me away - and I’m pretty sure it will be the same for you too.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“By me witnessing the god in others I’m calling them up to the vibrational level of their god-selves.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode we talk about all sorts of cool stuff - all around how you can be your best self.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What this means in practice. What inspires you to show up as your best. The simple daily practices you can engage in to really life life to the full. Julian really does hold nothing back. As you’ll hear, he gives my questions careful consideration and as a result we went to some super interesting places.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Such as a definition of meditation that everyone can connect with (even if you can’t sit still for a minute on the cushion!)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And Julian’s 3-minute, daily sex practice that’s not only created more love and connection with his wife Marla, but bleeds into everything else that he does.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And perhaps my favorite comment of all. Listen out for when Julian tells me to, <em>“Just be Raj. You don’t have to be anything. Just be Raj.”</em> [And of course insert your name as he says it.]</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode left me super inspired in so many ways and it’s my hope that it will do the same for you too.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So brew yourself a coffee, pull up a chair, and get ready to indulge yourself in a beautiful dose of life wisdom - courtesy of my friend, the extraordinary Julian Colker.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“The things you don’t want are opportunities for growth, opportunities to learn, and opportunities to get curious.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>What does feeling your inner god mean to you?

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“Self care is mandatory… If you think you’re going to be at your highest performance without self care, you’re fooling yourself.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I first met today’s guest in New York at an entrepreneurial event we both attended.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There was something about Julian! He had a vibe that made me feel good and made me want to be around him. And I wasn’t alone. I noticed how others had the same experience. When I asked Julian what was going on, he said it was because we had connected to his ‘inner god’ and that he was actively looking for the god in each person he encountered.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We didn’t have time to go into the detail of what this meant, but I was hooked and super curious. I had to know more! So I invited Julian onto the Stay Grounded podcast so we could dig deeper into this concept.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And the depth of insight this discussion unleashed blew me away - and I’m pretty sure it will be the same for you too.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“By me witnessing the god in others I’m calling them up to the vibrational level of their god-selves.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode we talk about all sorts of cool stuff - all around how you can be your best self.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What this means in practice. What inspires you to show up as your best. The simple daily practices you can engage in to really life life to the full. Julian really does hold nothing back. As you’ll hear, he gives my questions careful consideration and as a result we went to some super interesting places.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Such as a definition of meditation that everyone can connect with (even if you can’t sit still for a minute on the cushion!)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And Julian’s 3-minute, daily sex practice that’s not only created more love and connection with his wife Marla, but bleeds into everything else that he does.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And perhaps my favorite comment of all. Listen out for when Julian tells me to, <em>“Just be Raj. You don’t have to be anything. Just be Raj.”</em> [And of course insert your name as he says it.]</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode left me super inspired in so many ways and it’s my hope that it will do the same for you too.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So brew yourself a coffee, pull up a chair, and get ready to indulge yourself in a beautiful dose of life wisdom - courtesy of my friend, the extraordinary Julian Colker.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“The things you don’t want are opportunities for growth, opportunities to learn, and opportunities to get curious.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>What does feeling your inner god mean to you? [1:20]</li><li>What does vibrational level mean? [6:29]</li><li>When you’re in a low vibrational state how do you train yourself to start appreciating and seeing the joy all around you.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Writing thank you cards for me is my canvas. It’s the manner in which I express myself to the world about how I feel.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As the owner of a gifting company, today’s guest felt his was living out of alignment. Gifting involves expressing your love and appreciation to the people you care about, yet John didn’t feel this value featured highly enough in his life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Something had to change - so John committed to send FIVE handwritten thank you cards <em>every day</em> for one year. The Mr Thank You Project was born.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But what started as a challenge quickly morphed into an incredible journey of self-expression, personal growth, and deepening relationships.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When you think about thank you cards, you traditionally imagine obligatory notes sent after receiving a gift. But John knew those letters would get dry and boring pretty soon! So he decided to write cards that truly appreciated someone for who they are and what they’d done for him. It was a decision that forced John to be vulnerable and put his heart on the line, but the results - as you’ll see in this episode - were life-changing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“I became hyper aware of my emotional state everyday – because if you have to sit down and write someone a thank you card you can’t be in a lame, negative, upset attitude. Well you can, but it’s not going to be very good card!”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode John reveals the nitty gritty about what happened during his one-year Mr Thank You project.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He tells some incredible stories of compassion, appreciation, and love for the most unlikely people who changed his life as he touched theirs.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I promise, John will transform the way you look at thank you cards. This episode exposes their true power not only to transform your relationships, but also influence the core of who you are and how you show up in the world.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Fair warning! Don’t be surprised if you get an urge to rush to the nearest store after this episode to buy a pack of cards. There’s something about John’s story that compels you to want to start writing notes of your own :)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And that is John’s mission. Through the Mr Thank You Project, John is determined to elevate the level of gratitude in the world by 1% by inspiring people to write 74 million thank you letters.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So grab your cup and get ready for a masterclass as I hand you over to the inspirational, Mr Thank You himself - John ‘Izzy’ Israel.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Curiosity is the birthplace of appreciation and appreciation is the start point of empathy.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“Microscopic living... It’s about going into the smallest places and finding treasure that explodes and expands to everybody else.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When today’s guest lost the love of her life in a tragic accident, her whole life plan was stripped from the table.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But part of the human condition is the ability to transform tragedy and heartache into something beautiful. It’s how her husband’s death became one of the pivotal points that enabled Sheevan to become - in my words - “the Queen of Flow”.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I was so pumped to talk with Sheevaun, this conversation made me so happy! I learned some incredibly profound things too. But that’s what happens when you sit down to talk about life with a business advisor, master coach, and energetic thought leader. In fact, Sheevaun has helped over 25,000 entrepreneurs, CEO's and leaders tap into their soul’s unique formula - so they can show up in the way that’s right for them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And in this episode, she shares some incredible wisdom and insight that will inspire you to challenge your understanding of how the world works (so you can make life work for you too).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Nearly all our communication is energetic before we say a word.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My conversation with Sheevaun gets pretty deep as we dig into the tangible as well as the intangible. We talk about everything from inner reflection, to microscopic living, to the importance of cleaning up your ‘hot mess’!&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s an episode that left me feeling inspired and empowered.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s true. There may be a lot of negativity floating around in the world right now, but that doesn’t mean we’re powerless to do anything.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“Microscopic living... It’s about going into the smallest places and finding treasure that explodes and expands to everybody else.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When today’s guest lost the love of her life in a tragic accident, her whole life plan was stripped from the table.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But part of the human condition is the ability to transform tragedy and heartache into something beautiful. It’s how her husband’s death became one of the pivotal points that enabled Sheevan to become - in my words - “the Queen of Flow”.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I was so pumped to talk with Sheevaun, this conversation made me so happy! I learned some incredibly profound things too. But that’s what happens when you sit down to talk about life with a business advisor, master coach, and energetic thought leader. In fact, Sheevaun has helped over 25,000 entrepreneurs, CEO's and leaders tap into their soul’s unique formula - so they can show up in the way that’s right for them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And in this episode, she shares some incredible wisdom and insight that will inspire you to challenge your understanding of how the world works (so you can make life work for you too).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Nearly all our communication is energetic before we say a word.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My conversation with Sheevaun gets pretty deep as we dig into the tangible as well as the intangible. We talk about everything from inner reflection, to microscopic living, to the importance of cleaning up your ‘hot mess’!&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s an episode that left me feeling inspired and empowered.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s true. There may be a lot of negativity floating around in the world right now, but that doesn’t mean we’re powerless to do anything. In fact, Sheevaun reveals some very practical steps we can take to feel better about our own lives and make our mark on the world.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So tune in and discover some of life’s secrets and how flow can help you create success, fulfillment, and happiness in your life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“I love that the human condition can take a really negative thing and transform it into something really amazing and beautiful - if we allow it.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“If we don’t keep that attitude of gratitude then we block the oncoming prosperity.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Today’s guest has worked with powerhouses such as Chet Holmes and Tony Robbins before setting up his own venture that empowers people through accountability.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But life wasn’t always so successful. As a troubled teen, Mitch danced with death - at one point being just 15 seconds away from an early exit.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Fortunately, a wake up call kicked him out of the downward spiral and put him on a path where success was the only option. Since that point, Mitch has committed his life to helping others while creating a beautiful, productive life for himself.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And he spills all the beans in this incredible episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“The wisdom only comes from the arrows in your back and the times you’ve tried and didn’t make it, not from the one time that you happened to get it right and hit a home run.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Fair warning! This episode is a rollercoaster. Mitch’s backstory reduced me to tears and tingles. I’m grateful for the powerful reminder that there’s <em>always</em> a way up from rock bottom, back into the realm of abundance and fulfillment.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And that’s Mitch’s passion. Over the years, he’s honed some specific strategies that have helped him be his best and in this episode he shares them with you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What I love about this episode is its practicality. Mitch is generous in his sharing and reveals some techniques you can use right now. Covering everything from daily rituals to the power of mindset, this episode will lift your spirits leaving you happy to be alive :)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Interviewing people like Mitch is an honor and a privilege. My heart was overflowing with gratitude for Mitch’s candid sharing. I’m sure it will move you too.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And if that wasn’t enough, Mitch also has a special gift just for you that’s going to empower you to create more for your life - but you’ll have to listen to the end to find out what that is.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So grab your cup and settle in for a real treat as I hand you over to the the very wise, highly accomplished Mitch Russo.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Uncertainty is a gift that most people don’t feel as a gift… Uncertainty simply means that the possibilities are limitless.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Tell us about your thoughts on accountability and why you think it’s such an effective tool. [5:30]</li><li>What is the psychology behind accountability that makes it work so well? [9:38]</li><li>How is accountability a part of your daily routine? [10:50]</li><li>I’ve never seen gratitude and accountability tied together. How do you think gratitude helps you be more accountable? [13:06]</li><li>How does accountability tie in with internal motivation and how do you motivate yourself? [17:20]</li><li>How does your morning routine fuel you? [19:20]</li><li>It’s easy to celebrate the ‘sexy’ big things. How do you programme yourself to acknowledge the small wins too? [22:19]</li><li>How do you take control of your own life if you haven’t had a wake-up call? [31:00]</li><li>Why is it important to you to pay it forward? [33:42]</li><li>You’ve achieved so much. How do you cope with the ‘shiny squirrels’ and decide what you’re going to do next? [36:22]</li><li>Tell us about your relationship with failure. [43:05]</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>What happened at Petuchi’s restaurant on a weekly basis that transformed Mitch’s life. [6:30]</li><li>The real story behind the birth of Mitch’s new venture - ResultsBreakthrough.com. [8:50]</li><li>What accountability questions you should ask yourself. [11:42]</li><li>How gratitude opens up a portal to prosperity. [13:20]</li><li>The power of understanding the emotions that block you from the things you want to do.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“If we don’t keep that attitude of gratitude then we block the oncoming prosperity.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Today’s guest has worked with powerhouses such as Chet Holmes and Tony Robbins before setting up his own venture that empowers people through accountability.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But life wasn’t always so successful. As a troubled teen, Mitch danced with death - at one point being just 15 seconds away from an early exit.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Fortunately, a wake up call kicked him out of the downward spiral and put him on a path where success was the only option. Since that point, Mitch has committed his life to helping others while creating a beautiful, productive life for himself.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And he spills all the beans in this incredible episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“The wisdom only comes from the arrows in your back and the times you’ve tried and didn’t make it, not from the one time that you happened to get it right and hit a home run.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Fair warning! This episode is a rollercoaster. Mitch’s backstory reduced me to tears and tingles. I’m grateful for the powerful reminder that there’s <em>always</em> a way up from rock bottom, back into the realm of abundance and fulfillment.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And that’s Mitch’s passion. Over the years, he’s honed some specific strategies that have helped him be his best and in this episode he shares them with you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What I love about this episode is its practicality. Mitch is generous in his sharing and reveals some techniques you can use right now. Covering everything from daily rituals to the power of mindset, this episode will lift your spirits leaving you happy to be alive :)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Interviewing people like Mitch is an honor and a privilege. My heart was overflowing with gratitude for Mitch’s candid sharing. I’m sure it will move you too.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And if that wasn’t enough, Mitch also has a special gift just for you that’s going to empower you to create more for your life - but you’ll have to listen to the end to find out what that is.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So grab your cup and settle in for a real treat as I hand you over to the the very wise, highly accomplished Mitch Russo.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Uncertainty is a gift that most people don’t feel as a gift… Uncertainty simply means that the possibilities are limitless.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Tell us about your thoughts on accountability and why you think it’s such an effective tool. [5:30]</li><li>What is the psychology behind accountability that makes it work so well? [9:38]</li><li>How is accountability a part of your daily routine? [10:50]</li><li>I’ve never seen gratitude and accountability tied together. How do you think gratitude helps you be more accountable? [13:06]</li><li>How does accountability tie in with internal motivation and how do you motivate yourself? [17:20]</li><li>How does your morning routine fuel you? [19:20]</li><li>It’s easy to celebrate the ‘sexy’ big things. How do you programme yourself to acknowledge the small wins too? [22:19]</li><li>How do you take control of your own life if you haven’t had a wake-up call? [31:00]</li><li>Why is it important to you to pay it forward? [33:42]</li><li>You’ve achieved so much. How do you cope with the ‘shiny squirrels’ and decide what you’re going to do next? [36:22]</li><li>Tell us about your relationship with failure. [43:05]</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>What happened at Petuchi’s restaurant on a weekly basis that transformed Mitch’s life.

You’ll discover how unexpected meetings, events, and situations when you’re down can transform your life in ways you couldn’t imagine.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“For anyone that’s in a situation now where it feels terrible and that life is against them… there are numerous people that have had the exact same situation and ended up having the most amazing life.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>What inspired your trip to Europe?

It’s Michael O’Neal, host of the Soulpreneur podcast which has racked up a staggering 681 shows.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mike is an outstanding podcaster and he shared a few insider secrets with me in this show - so if you’re a podcaster too, you’re going to love this one.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But I didn’t ask Mike on to talk about his skills! While we do discuss the power of storytelling and interviewing, I wanted to dig into the inspirational story that’s taken him to where he is today.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It started back in 2006 when Mike lost both his parents in less than 12 months.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Despite achieving a level of success, medical bills soon hemorrhaged his life meaning he was effectively starting from scratch.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And that’s when he went to Europe.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Success recognizes hustle.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mike’s story is about creating your own luck - despite tragedy and troubles.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s about being 75 and sunny in all areas of his life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And finding a way to build your life around the things you enjoy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mike is proof that you <em>always</em> have a choice - and that the choices you make in any given circumstances determine the experiences you have.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So if you feel as though life is against you right now, take a listen to Mike.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“My routine is my awareness tool. My tracking tool to tell me when I’m on track, when I’m off track, when do I need to course correct, and when I need to double-down.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My guest today has flipped over 150 houses in the last six years. He’s Matt Aitchison, creator of 6FigureFlipper.com and an individual who has a unique and inspiring approach to happiness.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matt’s goal is to be a millionaire in ALL areas of his life. Passionate about showing up as his ‘organic self’ consistently in all 8 of his ‘life gardens’, Matt’s attention to detail and ‘small bet’ testing mentality is an inspiration.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks to his daily routines and methodical tracking, Matt has developed an intense level of self awareness, which helps him know when to course correct, double down, or change tact.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s an approach that’s brought him wealth in business, health, relationships, and financially - and a methodology that he shares in this powerful episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>What you’re doing right now - in this exact moment - was once a stretch for you mentally and physically, but you figured out a way to normalize it. It’s just what you do now.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matt wasn’t always this focused and dedicated to his path.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In fact, it took a nosedive to rock bottom after a college arrest for a physical altercation. This was the wake-up call he needed to start designing the life his organic self craved.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For the last 10 years, Matt has been dedicated to 2.0 himself. Fuelled by a belief that what seems scary can become his new reality, Matt leverages his all in, all out personality to live a full on life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So if you want hacks and strategies that will help step into your ‘organic self’, this episode is a must watch.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I promise, it’s a doozy!&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“I’ve always believed that we grow into the conversations around us. If you want to be a millionaire, go hang out with nine other millionaires and most likely you’re going to adopt the mentality, the disciplines, the habits, the network, the research - all the information that will empower you to be on that path as well.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>Tell me about your story and your transformation in your own words (0:56)</li><li>When you realised in college that you had to make some serious changes, how did you make that party happen? What was the first sprint like after you decided to get started? (9:33)</li><li>How does your daily routine keep the party going down the path you’ve chosen. (17:15)</li><li>How did you come up with your core values and what are some of the non-negotiables on your routine list? (22:42)</li><li>You say you want to be a whole-life millionaire. How does your mission, vision, and values help you find balance? (29:00)</li><li>How does gratitude feature in your life? (36:55)</li><li>Tell me more about Six-Figure Flipper. (39:55)</li><li>In the midst of everything you’ve accomplished, how do you stay grounded on a daily basis? (44:29)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>How an altercation at school turned Matt’s life upside down and taught him that actions create consequences. (3:33)</li><li>Why a college arrest and brutal reality check taught him that your past doesn’t need to equal your future. (5:33)</li><li>How Matt got interested in real estate entrepreneurship. (7:50)</li><li>How a life audit helped Matt figure out what he needed to change and the two places he chose to edit first. (11:03)</li><li>Matt’s easy, two-column strategy that empowered him to step into his new life. (11:45)</li><li>The impact mentorship played in Matt’s turnaround. (13:47)</li><li>The book that led Matt down a path of self acceptance and transformation and gave him permission to be his ‘organic self’. (14:50)</li><li>What happened when Matt began living as the organic version of himself. (16:03)</li><li>Why clarity helps you eliminate distractions, condense your life, and be ruthless - so you can hone in on the things that are most important to you. (17:30)</li><li>The benefits of ‘small bets’ and how they help you figure out the best formula. (20:25)&nbsp;</li><li>Matt’s three daily non-negotiables and the role they play in his life. (23:14)</li><li>How MVVBP can help you discover your core values. (25:37)</li><li>Why counterbalance is more accurate than balance in life. (29:08)</li><li>How you spell love (it’s not what you think). (31:00)</li><li>Matt’s Legendary Life Rating and why he tracks them. (33:16)</li><li>The power of your RAS and how gratitude can help you enhance the things that are important to you.

Passionate about showing up as his ‘organic self’ consistently in all 8 of his ‘life gardens’, Matt’s attention to detail and ‘small bet’ testing mentality is an inspiration.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks to his daily routines and methodical tracking, Matt has developed an intense level of self awareness, which helps him know when to course correct, double down, or change tact.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s an approach that’s brought him wealth in business, health, relationships, and financially - and a methodology that he shares in this powerful episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>What you’re doing right now - in this exact moment - was once a stretch for you mentally and physically, but you figured out a way to normalize it. It’s just what you do now.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matt wasn’t always this focused and dedicated to his path.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In fact, it took a nosedive to rock bottom after a college arrest for a physical altercation. This was the wake-up call he needed to start designing the life his organic self craved.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For the last 10 years, Matt has been dedicated to 2.0 himself. Fuelled by a belief that what seems scary can become his new reality, Matt leverages his all in, all out personality to live a full on life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So if you want hacks and strategies that will help step into your ‘organic self’, this episode is a must watch.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I promise, it’s a doozy!&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“I’ve always believed that we grow into the conversations around us. If you want to be a millionaire, go hang out with nine other millionaires and most likely you’re going to adopt the mentality, the disciplines, the habits, the network, the research - all the information that will empower you to be on that path as well.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>Tell me about your story and your transformation in your own words (0:56)</li><li>When you realised in college that you had to make some serious changes, how did you make that party happen? What was the first sprint like after you decided to get started? (9:33)</li><li>How does your daily routine keep the party going down the path you’ve chosen. (17:15)</li><li>How did you come up with your core values and what are some of the non-negotiables on your routine list? (22:42)</li><li>You say you want to be a whole-life millionaire. How does your mission, vision, and values help you find balance? (29:00)</li><li>How does gratitude feature in your life? (36:55)</li><li>Tell me more about Six-Figure Flipper. (39:55)</li><li>In the midst of everything you’ve accomplished, how do you stay grounded on a daily basis? (44:29)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>How an altercation at school turned Matt’s life upside down and taught him that actions create consequences. (3:33)</li><li>Why a college arrest and brutal reality check taught him that your past doesn’t need to equal your future. (5:33)</li><li>How Matt got interested in real estate entrepreneurship. (7:50)</li><li>How a life audit helped Matt figure out what he needed to change and the two places he chose to edit first. (11:03)</li><li>Matt’s easy, two-column strategy that empowered him to step into his new life. (11:45)</li><li>The impact mentorship played in Matt’s turnaround. (13:47)</li><li>The book that led Matt down a path of self acceptance and transformation and gave him permission to be his ‘organic self’. (14:50)</li><li>What happened when Matt began living as the organic version of himself. (16:03)</li><li>Why clarity helps you eliminate distractions, condense your life, and be ruthless - so you can hone in on the things that are most important to you. (17:30)</li><li>The benefits of ‘small bets’ and how they help you figure out the best formula. (20:25)&nbsp;</li><li>Matt’s three daily non-negotiables and the role they play in his life. (23:14)</li><li>How MVVBP can help you discover your core values. (25:37)</li><li>Why counterbalance is more accurate than balance in life. (29:08)</li><li>How you spell love (it’s not what you think). (31:00)</li><li>Matt’s Legendary Life Rating and why he tracks them. (33:16)</li><li>The power of your RAS and how gratitude can help you enhance the things that are important to you.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“If you want to live a full life, you’ve got to throw your routine out the window sometimes and just be willing to take a ride on what the universe has to offer you.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode’s guest uses Facebook for a very different reason than most.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Instead of getting lost in the timeline, Frost Fassett scrolled through the 100 plus events in his local area to pinpoint ONE to attend.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Then he did this EVERY SINGLE DAY for an entire year.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>That’s 365 events in 365 different communities so he could have ONE profound conversation and learn something new <em>every single day</em> in 2017.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>His DICE (Daily Inspiring Community Events) Project took him across America and overseas and gave him a unique insight into people and communities from all walks of life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s totally fascinating and something we discuss at length in this episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Community events are the social fabric of America. If we can have more community events we can have more real-world, face-to-face conversation with people shaking hands, then that is what is going to truly impact our nation. That is what is going to evolve our democracy.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Frost believes that while we’re more connected than ever, we’re more isolated and alone than ever.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What’s more, the information silos we live in is leading to more polarisation as people don’t get to interact with perspectives and ideas that don’t align with their own beliefs.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He wanted to push back against this trend and get stuck into real-life conversations with real people doing good in their communities.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This experienced shaped and influenced Frost and he reveals all in this fascinating interview.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So whether you’re curious as to how one man can pack so much in or you’re interested to explore a simple idea that could inject more adventure, curiosity, and connection into your life, this episode is for you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Because as Frost discovered, there is a superpower in community connections and when you have that sense of belonging somewhere, something beautiful and new can open up for your life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Over to Frost...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Life is not static… We have a past and we have a future… Life it’s a work in progress… Where I’ve got to go has got to be a constant re-evaluation of where I’m at right now.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>Tell us about your incredible 2017. (3:47)</li><li>How was it travelling 90 minutes to get to a different location to get to an event? (12:35)</li><li>A lot of people aren’t putting in the work to find fulfilment and to be happy. What do you have to say about that? (13:40)</li><li>What are some of the biggest things that you learned during the year? What are some of the positives? What are you taking with you and what are you leaving behind? (20:33)</li><li>From a year of meeting so many people, how has that changed you as a person. How has that changed how you interact with others and build relationships? (26:42)</li><li>How did you find the middle ground so you could make connections when going to different communities and meeting different people? (31:07)</li><li>I believe there are fundamental things that humans can connect on, regardless of who we are. How did universal principles factor into your conversations to help you find common ground? (33:21)</li><li>What mindset did you take to these events? For example, did you rely on any rituals to foster a sense of positivity? (38:32)</li><li>Where did the best conversations come from? (45:16)</li><li>How do you stay grounded everyday? (50:37)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><ul><li>The 10k near-death experience in 2014 that jilted Frost and forced him to reassess what he wanted to do for his life and the impact he wanted to make. (4:08)</li><li>How Frost emerged with a new community mantra for life - and how it was influenced by polarized events. (5:02)</li><li>How conversations can change the world and the framework that can make that a reality. (7:39)</li><li>The community party event attended by 700 people that kicked off Frost’s mission with a ton of media coverage. (7:52)</li><li>How a book idea and his first event triggered Frost’s decision to proactively live his mantra daily through DICE (9:20)</li><li>What is DICE and how it defined a year of Frost’s life. (9:40)</li><li>The Facebook ‘thing’ Frost believes he is onto. (11:22)</li><li>The thought process that morphed DICE from a one-off decision to an annual project. (15:01)</li><li>The two motivations that kept Frost going for an entire year. (15:47)</li><li>The most uncomfortable conversation Frost had during his DICE project that turned into an inspiring, profound experience.

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“If you want to live a full life, you’ve got to throw your routine out the window sometimes and just be willing to take a ride on what the universe has to offer you.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This episode’s guest uses Facebook for a very different reason than most.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Instead of getting lost in the timeline, Frost Fassett scrolled through the 100 plus events in his local area to pinpoint ONE to attend.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Then he did this EVERY SINGLE DAY for an entire year.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>That’s 365 events in 365 different communities so he could have ONE profound conversation and learn something new <em>every single day</em> in 2017.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>His DICE (Daily Inspiring Community Events) Project took him across America and overseas and gave him a unique insight into people and communities from all walks of life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It’s totally fascinating and something we discuss at length in this episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Community events are the social fabric of America. If we can have more community events we can have more real-world, face-to-face conversation with people shaking hands, then that is what is going to truly impact our nation. That is what is going to evolve our democracy.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Frost believes that while we’re more connected than ever, we’re more isolated and alone than ever.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What’s more, the information silos we live in is leading to more polarisation as people don’t get to interact with perspectives and ideas that don’t align with their own beliefs.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He wanted to push back against this trend and get stuck into real-life conversations with real people doing good in their communities.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This experienced shaped and influenced Frost and he reveals all in this fascinating interview.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So whether you’re curious as to how one man can pack so much in or you’re interested to explore a simple idea that could inject more adventure, curiosity, and connection into your life, this episode is for you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Because as Frost discovered, there is a superpower in community connections and when you have that sense of belonging somewhere, something beautiful and new can open up for your life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Over to Frost...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Life is not static… We have a past and we have a future… Life it’s a work in progress… Where I’ve got to go has got to be a constant re-evaluation of where I’m at right now.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><ul><li>Tell us about your incredible 2017. (3:47)</li><li>How was it travelling 90 minutes to get to a different location to get to an event? (12:35)</li><li>A lot of people aren’t putting in the work to find fulfilment and to be happy. What do you have to say about that? (13:40)</li><li>What are some of the biggest things that you learned during the year? What are some of the positives? What are you taking with you and what are you leaving behind? (20:33)</li><li>From a year of meeting so many people, how has that changed you as a person. How has that changed how you interact with others and build relationships? (26:42)</li><li>How did you find the middle ground so you could make connections when going to different communities and meeting different people? (31:07)</li><li>I believe there are fundamental things that humans can connect on, regardless of who we are. How did universal principles factor into your conversations to help you find common ground? (33:21)</li><li>What mindset did you take to these events? For example, did you rely on any rituals to foster a sense of positivity? (38:32)</li><li>Where did the best conversations come from? (45:16)</li><li>How do you stay grounded everyday? (50:37)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><ul><li>The 10k near-death experience in 2014 that jilted Frost and forced him to reassess what he wanted to do for his life and the impact he wanted to make. (4:08)</li><li>How Frost emerged with a new community mantra for life - and how it was influenced by polarized events. (5:02)</li><li>How conversations can change the world and the framework that can make that a reality. (7:39)</li><li>The community party event attended by 700 people that kicked off Frost’s mission with a ton of media coverage. (7:52)</li><li>How a book idea and his first event triggered Frost’s decision to proactively live his mantra daily through DICE (9:20)</li><li>What is DICE and how it defined a year of Frost’s life. (9:40)</li><li>The Facebook ‘thing’ Frost believes he is onto. (11:22)</li><li>The thought process that morphed DICE from a one-off decision to an annual project. (15:01)</li><li>The two motivations that kept Frost going for an entire year. (15:47)</li><li>The most uncomfortable conversation Frost had during his DICE project that turned into an inspiring, profound experience. (22:53)</li><li>The importance of finding common ground when meeting new people to create space for conversation and rapport. (35:35)</li><li>Why Frost poured his heart out in a bowling alley to secure his project. (39:47)</li><li>Frost’s passion for bigger businesses to get engaged with community events.

How did you motivate yourself? (24:20)</li><li>How do you balance work-related with your personal goals? (29:40)</li><li>What do you think about sharing your intentions with others. How does that work as a practice? (33:20)</li><li>How did you develop such a sense of ownership for your own life? (36:29)</li><li>How do you stay grounded on a daily basis? (42:55)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>How Shannon started out with Belay. (0:56)</li><li>The critical role gratitude plays in Shannon’s life - and the practice she pairs with it to help frame her day.

(12:27)</li><li>Shannon’s new tactic for this year that’s inspiring her weekly planning, daily task management, and an ongoing feeling of accomplishment.

As I’m sharing this episode with you, so is Austin sharing this exact same episode on his podcast.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Austin is the CEO and founder of Entrecloud - a forward-thinking WordPress hosting company that helps amplify entrepreneur’s voices online. Austin is also a deep-thinker, a philosopher and an action-taker.

It’s not a place elsewhere or in the future. If you aren’t present or content in the moment, you will always be chasing the dragons that you’ll never reach”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you want to create a happier life, you have to take responsibility for creating a happier life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Happiness is a mindset and a choice. It’s an emotion that’s inherently human, and also one that you can cultivate and design - if you have strategies to do that.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this week’s episode, Austin and I explore the philosophy of happiness, the importance of men being able to process their emotions, and the awesome power of fear and how you can use it to get what you want.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We also talk about cheat codes, taking massive action, and how your higher self is always drawing you closer to the live you want to live.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This conversation took place over a glass of wine in the beautiful Californian sun and the more we talked, the more the ideas and insights flowed.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Austin inspired me and I’m confident he’ll inspire you too.

Her energy, passion, and excitement for life just oozes out of her. But it wasn’t always that way.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When you’re not connected with the truth of who you are, life feels out of alignment - and that can make for a miserable existence.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This was the experience faced by today’s podcast guest - just four short years ago.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A slow, but steady period of discovery shocked Heather into realizing her life was a lie. After a decade of marriage with four beautiful kids, Heather realised she’d <em>‘married the wrong gender’</em>. It was a shocking discovery and one that took a while to process. It also became the trigger that forced Heather to reevaluate <em>everything</em> and laid the foundations for the life she enjoys today.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this deeply personal episode, Heather talks about what it was like to reshape her identity and learn to tap into her heart and soul so she could discover who she really was.

(7:50)</li><li>With all the chaos, what’s the non-negotiable that you lean on to get things back under control.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I can teach you business in one word - meditation.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Todd White is the founder of <em>Dry Farm Wines</em> - a passionate business based in Napa Valley that’s busy transforming the way people drink and view wine.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this podcast, Todd talks about the practices and principles that enabled him to learn from a previous business failure (that cost him millions), to create <em>Dry Farm Wines</em>. A business that did $37,000 in revenue during 2015, $15m in 2017, and is in course to generate $28m in 2018.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What’s interesting about Todd’s incredible success is he hasn’t relied on conventional methods.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Instead, he’s creating from a place of flow - from a place where he’s connected with source energy. And that’s not just Todd. All 15 of Todd’s passionate employees practice the same daily rituals and ketogenic diet creating a powerful lifestyle where business success comes without disrupting Todd’s peace and presence - something that’s hugely important to him.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“Coffee is for morning love and wine is for evening love - that way you can love all day!”&nbsp;</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Todd is unlike most business owners I’ve met.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He has a unique take on the importance of money and has plenty to say about life architecture - something we dive into deep during this podcast episode.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So if you’ve been looking for a way to build a life of peace and calm and you want to know how an 8-figure business owner proactively builds his life (and company) in a way that removes stress and anxiety, this episode is for you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Todd also throws down a challenge that wine can enhance your love life! Make sure you listen in to the end to hear what I have to say about that :)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And if you love wine, and you’d like to enjoy more (without the hangover), listen out for Todd’s special gift <em>exclusively</em> for Stay Grounded listeners. I think you’ll love it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“When we feel great and we have our best cognitive performance, that’s when we can really start to enhance our overall performance through mental training, meditation, and gratitude.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>How did your staff learn the manifestation and meditation rituals that you practice? (10:30)</li><li>You follow a ketogenic diet. Can you explain for our listeners what that is and why you made the choice to eat in this way. (16:58)</li><li>When it comes to how you live your life, you seem so dialled in. Have you always been this way or was there a particular moment when it all clicked and you set out on a path to change. (22:49)</li><li>You talk a lot about <em>‘life architecture’.</em> Can you explain to our listeners what you mean by that? (29:57)</li><li>You run a company called <em>Dry Farm Wines</em>, can you explain what your business does for the wine industry and for your customers? (35:41)</li><li>On a day-to-day basis, how do you stay grounded?

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“I love 30 day challenges. In 12 months you can have 12 new habits that can transform your life. In 3 years you have 36 new habits and you’re a whole new person.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Brad Hart is an experienced entrepreneur, investor, trader, advisor, and mentor to people who want more from their life. We met at a mastermind and connected immediately.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Brad is a bundle of fired up energy and a force for good. His articles have been read over a million times and his charity works keeps changing lives for the better.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But Brad’s life wasn’t always this way…</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>After a freak accident left his dad unable to walk, Brad was forced to grow up fast. By the age of five he was expected to be self-sufficient and in his early teens he started living out of his car - to escape his drunk father and avoid the mom he resented.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This challenging childhood taught Brad that he didn’t belong and that people didn’t like him. It was the reason he became an accidental entrepreneur.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He longed to be rich and wealthy - and he succeeded.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><em>“You are the best doctor for your body. You are the best therapist for your mind. You’ve just got to do the work.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Rewind the clock 4 ½ years and today’s guest was recovering from a heart attack.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The cumulative effect of a lifetime on the stage had led to everything from diabetes to sleep apnea, to fertility problems, heart disease, and seriously high cholesterol.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But there was something about facing death that shifted professional comedian, Matt Kazam’s perspective.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He shocked him to realize that despite doing the work he was born to do, he was still unhappy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But in the face of his own mortality he became more open-minded. He didn’t want to die, he didn’t want to pump himself full of medication. Instead wanted to figure out a ‘real’ way to live a life of joy, health, and happiness.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And it was this insight that transformed his life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“If you created a blueprint for unhappiness, it would be how western society lives its life.”&nbsp;</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, Matt shares how he went about undoing 45 years of living the wrong way.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>More than fixing his diet, Matt’s story is one of rewiring and re-booting. He attacked his problem from a place of logic and common sense and went back to the way we’re supposed to live our lives.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With a day-to-day structured around rituals and routines that fill Matt with health, positivity and happiness, Matt’s story is an example of what’s possible when you take charge of your life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a guy who couldn’t tie his shoes - yet six months later he ran a half-marathon.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a man who was infertile - but now he’s the inspirational dad to a beautiful three-year-old.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is an ‘unhappy comic’ who recognised that we’re meant to be happy, positive creatures - so he created a blueprint that allowed him to experience that truth.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matt’s passion for his journey flows out of every pore. His excitement for life and his passion for figuring out the path to happiness is an inspiration. So listen in and I’m certain Matt will help you see your world through fresh new eyes. He may even inspire you to start a journey of transformation for yourself.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“If you’re looking for joy where joy doesn’t exist,</em></p><p><em>you’re NEVER going to find it.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>What did your day look like before you transformed your lifestyle? (6:33)</li><li>What does your day look like now? (13:58)</li><li>Why do you think your routines and rituals are so effective at keeping you in line? (25:54)</li><li>How do your non-negotiables help you make happiness a daily priority? (31:10)</li><li>If someone feels at rock bottom or they’re not where they want to be, what advice or tips do you have to help them start out on the road to change? (41:07)</li><li>How do you stay grounded so you don’t slip back into the way you were?

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<p><em>“You are the best doctor for your body. You are the best therapist for your mind. You’ve just got to do the work.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Rewind the clock 4 ½ years and today’s guest was recovering from a heart attack.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The cumulative effect of a lifetime on the stage had led to everything from diabetes to sleep apnea, to fertility problems, heart disease, and seriously high cholesterol.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But there was something about facing death that shifted professional comedian, Matt Kazam’s perspective.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He shocked him to realize that despite doing the work he was born to do, he was still unhappy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But in the face of his own mortality he became more open-minded. He didn’t want to die, he didn’t want to pump himself full of medication. Instead wanted to figure out a ‘real’ way to live a life of joy, health, and happiness.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And it was this insight that transformed his life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“If you created a blueprint for unhappiness, it would be how western society lives its life.”&nbsp;</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, Matt shares how he went about undoing 45 years of living the wrong way.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>More than fixing his diet, Matt’s story is one of rewiring and re-booting. He attacked his problem from a place of logic and common sense and went back to the way we’re supposed to live our lives.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With a day-to-day structured around rituals and routines that fill Matt with health, positivity and happiness, Matt’s story is an example of what’s possible when you take charge of your life.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a guy who couldn’t tie his shoes - yet six months later he ran a half-marathon.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a man who was infertile - but now he’s the inspirational dad to a beautiful three-year-old.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is an ‘unhappy comic’ who recognised that we’re meant to be happy, positive creatures - so he created a blueprint that allowed him to experience that truth.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matt’s passion for his journey flows out of every pore. His excitement for life and his passion for figuring out the path to happiness is an inspiration. So listen in and I’m certain Matt will help you see your world through fresh new eyes. He may even inspire you to start a journey of transformation for yourself.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><em>“If you’re looking for joy where joy doesn’t exist,</em></p><p><em>you’re NEVER going to find it.”</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Some questions I ask:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>What did your day look like before you transformed your lifestyle? (6:33)</li><li>What does your day look like now? (13:58)</li><li>Why do you think your routines and rituals are so effective at keeping you in line? (25:54)</li><li>How do your non-negotiables help you make happiness a daily priority? (31:10)</li><li>If someone feels at rock bottom or they’re not where they want to be, what advice or tips do you have to help them start out on the road to change? (41:07)</li><li>How do you stay grounded so you don’t slip back into the way you were? (55:33)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, you will hear about:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>The decision that kick-started Matt’s new path. (Spoiler. It was much more than his diet).

It’s that time for New Year’s Resolutions and goal setting!&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But goals can be hard to achieve when you lack foundations that inspire success and enable accomplishment.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode, I reflect on the key success strategies discussed by Allen Brouwer in his podcast interview.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Allen is a high performer and has achieved some incredible successes in a very short space of time. What’s fascinating about Allen’s accomplishments is they’ve been built on the back of some very powerful self-care habits.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So in this episode, I reflect on the importance of filling yourself first - to empower yourself with the energy and mindset that enables success. I hope you hear something that helps you make 2018 a good year for you.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In this episode I talk about:&nbsp;</p><ul><li>The power of the words - I’ll never <em>let myself</em> feel this way again.
