How Failure Is A Necessary Requirement For Mastery Of Anything w/ ETH University Zurich Professor Manu Kapur

Mar 24 2025 72 mins

Failure is a popular topic in the self-improvement world, but I feel it's generally addressed like a motivational talk. Don't let failure get you down. It's part of life. It's not failing, it's trying. Which is why I was interested when I heard about Manu Kapur (Man-oo kapoor) work on failure, who is a professor at the same university where Einstein attended and then taught. Manu s

Balancing Looking Good With Feeling Good & Giving Yourself Grace w/ Fitness Celebrity Chalene Johnson

Mar 21 2025 69 mins

I don’t normally gravitate towards people with the huge followings and big brand personalities. But I also like a good, down to earth story of personal evolution, and this is one I’m bringing back. A few years ago I got to have a long conversation with Chalene Johnson. We recorded a couple of shows and talked for hours longer about our sordid fitness and athletic journeys. Chal

Imagine Your Life As Literal Fiction - How Would You Narrate It

Mar 19 2025 21 mins

I’m thinking of a movie, Stranger Than Fiction. It came out in 2006 starring Will Ferrell, Emma Thompson, Dustin Hoffman, and Queen Latifah. In it, Will Ferrell plays a mentally unstable IRS auditor who starts hearing an author's voice in his head and as she writes this fictional story, he is the main character and the events literally happen in his life. So he hears her speak of

How To Revise Your Self-Talk & Revamp Your Very Existence w/ Marianne Renner

Mar 17 2025 88 mins

We all think we know what self-talk is. But I think we miss the gravity of it. I’m reminded of the joke where one fish asks another fish "how's the water?" The other fish replies, "what the heck is water?" We were never introduced to our own self-talk, it was there since the day we were conceived to varying degrees. We are not necessarily conscious of it. In this episode we expan

Filling The Deficit Of Mentoring In Your Life w/ Ken Blanchard & Claire Diaz-Ortiz

Mar 14 2025 63 mins

Mentors. Chances are slim you have someone who really fills the role. These days people will tend to cite their favorite authors and philosophers and influences as their mentors. And to that degree, I’d say that almost everyone in my life “mentors” me, as I learn from everyone. But I really define a mentor as someone who literally knows you and is invested in helping guide yo

A Quick Audit Of Our Life Alignment

Mar 12 2025 15 mins

We all understand what alignment is in regards to our car. It’s pulling one way or the other, the steering wheel is crooked when we drive straight. Over time it wears our tires out incorrectly, and if you’ve ever had an old, beat up car like I have, you are literally pulling it one way the entire time you drive. I find our lives are often this way in some areas. We are not in a

Can Anything Overcome Our Expectations For Ourselves w/ Spiritual Teacher Cathy Heller

Mar 10 2025 89 mins

I grew up in the Christian church amongst celebrated Bible verses, such as, “Ask and ye shall receive,” “Knock and the door will be open to you,” and “Seek, and ye shall find.” These concepts and requests were to be aimed at God. Today we hear a lot about manifesting. This often gets friction from the religious crowd as it feels like credit is given to the individual an

When Are The Best Times For Certain Activities, Conversations, & Tasks w/ Dan Pink

Mar 07 2025 59 mins

We often hear about morning routines and the best time for certain activities. What I mostly hear however, are people’s experiences of what works best for them, and while I’m appreciative they’ve found what works for them, I’m cautious to take anything and say it’s what everyone should do. I am interested in what research actually says though. Dan Pink is one of the most

Learn The Two Definitions Of Connection & Which One You Are Missing & Want To Increase

Mar 05 2025 19 mins

In the last episode I talked with Dr Adam Dorsay about the four types of connection we want and need as humans. I hope you listened and got benefit. I’ll list them out in this short episode. But here I want to draw attention to the real type of connection we are talking about, and most of us…missing. If we don’t understand, we’ll miss the concept entirely. Imagine one perso

Why True Connection Is At The Root Of Your Happiness & How To Truly Connect w/ Dr. Adam Dorsay

Mar 03 2025 89 mins

Dr. Adam Dorsay is a licensed psychologist and an executive coach in Silicon Valley where he serves people who have achieved all the big trophies of the world; money, status, possessions, power, and some of them, fame. And yet they are coming to him for help. Why? After all these years, he’s written a book to culminate the primary problem he sees. Lack of true connection. We are
