I’m already on my second round of reading this book.

 

The only guest I’ve invited on my show 3 times is my friend Benjamin Hardy. He is so smart, so good at explaining how to be your best self, and so genuine that I always want to talk to him about his work. His newest book is out and I’ve already read it twice.

His PhD research focused on entrepreneurial courage and transformational leadership. Before completing his PhD, his blogs were read by over 100 million people, he published his first major book Willpower Doesn’t Work, and he was running a 7-figure online training business. Since finishing his PhD in 2019, Dr. Hardy has published 5 additional books, including three co-authored with the legendary entrepreneurial coach, Dan Sullivan. His books have sold hundreds of thousands of copies and he is a sought-after teacher and speaker at corporate and entrepreneurial events as well as Fortune 500 companies. He and his wife Lauren are the parents of six kids and live in Orlando, Florida.

In this episode, Ben shares how to think of being your future self now, why that’s so important, and how it impacts every part of your life today.

How about progress over perfection?

 

It’s a new year and a new season of the show and I have a lot of creative energy flowing. I also am thinking of what I’ve learned about the power of focusing on making progress instead of focusing on perfection in achieving goals. It’s one of the most helpful shifts I’ve made in my life and I know it can be for you too.

In this episode, I share a story from my own life in the past year and how I have learned to focus on progress over perfection in my fitness. I’m also sharing my best tools and tips for setting progress-oriented goals because those are the ones that help us grow.

“Choice is the highest level of the human experience.”

Podcast: EP 91 The 5 Pillars of Health with Brooke Hemingway

Podcast: EP 91 The 5 Pillars of Health with Brooke Hemingway

by | Dec 7, 2022 | Podcast, Self Care

Health is wealth. So let’s talk about it.

 

Of all the success habits we talk about on the show, the one that sits at the top of my list is health. I invited my friend Brooke on the show to share some of the best tips that she has taught me about taking care of our bodies and our minds. It makes such a huge difference in all areas of life, and I know you’ll feel empowered by her insights on how to do this.

Here’s Brooke’s story in her own words: “I spent 20+ years in the gym setting teaching classes from MMA style workouts to vinyasa flow.  I received my degree in kinesiology from SDSU in 2002 and pursued my love of movement, working in top gyms in San Diego and LA. During that time I decided to take my studies into medicine, receiving my BSN from Mt St Mary’s in 2005, and going on to become an ICU RN. After 10 years I felt my heart calling me back to WELLNESS. I respect medicine and those who work in it, but in reality it didn’t align with my philosophy on health and how to truly keep one out of the hospital.  I came full circle back into health.  Since 2015 I’ve been building a massive wellness business based off premium quality supplements that address root healing.  Gut health, insulin resistance, and inflammation are at the core of almost all health issues and symptoms that have you feeling tired, overweight, under motivated, and sick.  That’s where I focus by combining a customized supplementation system, simple lifestyle and food modifications, and mindset support.“

In this episode, Brooke shares the powerful story of transforming her own relationship to her health, as well as her best tips to maintaining the 5 key pillars of health in your own life.

“Health is wealth.”

Podcast: EP 90 The Turned On Life with Kate Strong

Podcast: EP 90 The Turned On Life with Kate Strong

by | Nov 29, 2022 | Podcast, Self Care

There’s another way to practice self-care.

 

I love my friend Kate Strong — ever since I first met her at a women’s event years ago, I’ve been drawn to her self-love, her power, and her understanding of what it means to really take care of yourself.

Here’s how Kate talks about her journey and her work: “Most of the problems you are experiencing arise from battles within. I’ve been through it: faith transition, heartbreak, divorce, depression, anxiety, and more. On my journey of self-love and healing, I have become a healer, shaman, life coach, certified personal trainer, yoga instructor, and speaker. I am a guide who has walked the path to finding my true self, and from it has emerged a heart full of love, gratitude, perspective, and optimism. I want that for all. I am here to help.”

In this episode, Kate shares the key lessons that have transformed her life, her self-care, her work, and her love for herself. I know you’ll resonate with some or all of her story and be empowered to dive deeper into your own self-care as well.

“Asking myself led me to getting to know myself, which the end result of was loving myself.”
