Podcast: EP 82 Total Transformation with Heidi Powell

Loving ourselves can mean a lot of things.

 

The idea of being fit, beautiful, successful, and smart can be overwhelming. It’s easy to look at people who seem to have it all and think it’s just a luck of the draw. But when I met today’s guest at an event we both spoke at, I loved her take on this so much, I knew I wanted her to share it with you.

Heidi Powell is the ultimate female force. She is a trainer, transformation specialist, mother of four, savvy businesswoman and entrepreneur, author, nutrition nut, and overall health guru. Heidi became a fixture in America’s living room as she worked side-by-side Chris Powell on ABC’s hit show, Extreme Weight Loss. Heidi empowered thousands across the globe as the matriarch and tour de force for the often-struggling participants, serving as their daily fitness coach, voice of reason, and biggest cheerleader. 

This conversation is about the journey to purpose, health, and joy and why it’s okay for it to be winding, unique, and one of a kind. Heidi is a bright light and I know you’ll connect with her story, her wisdom, and her joy.

“I am always going to be a work in progress.”

Podcast: EP 80 The Magic of Surrender with Kute Blackson

Podcast: EP 80 The Magic of Surrender with Kute Blackson

Have you ever struggled to surrender?

 

The idea of surrender is complicated for many of us. But when I read my friend Kute’s new book about the magic of surrender, I was so inspired to rethink what surrender can do for us. I truly loved this book and can’t wait for you to hear Kute’s wisdom in this episode.

A beloved inspirational speaker and transformational teacher, Kute Blackson offers a fresh, bold look at spiritual awareness for a whole new generation. Born in Ghana, West Africa, Kute’s multicultural upbringing as the child of a Japanese mother and a Ghanaian father has spanned four different continents. His unique lineage lay the foundation for his approach to breaking down barriers and unlocking an individual’s true gifts and greatness.

This conversation is about rethinking what surrender is (and what it’s not), how we can let go of what is holding us back, and ways to allow more magic in your life.

“Surrender is the password to freedom.”

Podcast: EP 39 Personality Isn’t Permanent with Dr. Ben Hardy

Podcast: EP 39 Personality Isn’t Permanent with Dr. Ben Hardy

Have you ever wondered if you can’t change?

 

I am bringing back one of my earliest podcast guests for a second episode because he just wrote a new book and it is so good. If you remember Episode 4 about willpower, you’ll know that Benjamin Hardy is someone worth listening to.

Dr. Benjamin Hardy is an organizational psychologist and bestselling author of Willpower Doesn’t Work and Personality Isn’t Permanent.

His blogs have been read by over 100 million people and are featured on Harvard Business ReviewNew York Times, Forbes, Fortune, CNBC, Cheddar, and many others. He is a regular contributor to Inc. and Psychology Today and from 2015-2018, he was the #1 writer in the world on Medium.com.

 
 
 
He and his wife Lauren adopted three children through the foster system in February 2018 and, one month later, Lauren became pregnant with twins, who were born in December of 2018. They live in Orlando.
 
 
In this conversation we dive deep into the myths versus truths about how much our personality impacts who we are and what we do. Ben teaches us wisdom about how to make powerful choices about our future self, how to become who we want to be, and how to view our personality as an asset instead of a limitation.

 

“A person’s view of their own future is the strongest indicator of who they are.”
