Optimize Your Life & Business
Mindfulness is the key to living an examined life, to unlocking your true potential. It’s so much more than meditation, though meditation is a key component. Ultimately it’s having awareness of your awareness. The following episodes will help take you down the mindfulness rabbit hole…
"What’s meant to be will always find a way. But almost always, our fate comes down to the choices we make in our life."Tian Mu A spiritual awakening can happen in so many different ways. However it happens or whenever it does, one thing you can always say is that it leaves you a changed person. I was an agnostic for decades until I experienced my first big awakening in 2012 in India, and I’ll remember it my whole life. If you’re a long time listener, you’ve heard my awakening…
"Finding your Enneagram type doesn't mean it is who you are forever. What's great about self-assessment is when you're aware of who you are, you now have better ways to access your true gifts."Beth Kuper The ancient Greek aphorism “know thyself” isn’t just some bumper sticker expression. It can bring you much abundance and success in your life. One way to know yourself better is through personality assessments. While there’s a plethora of tests out there made by world-renowned psychologists, in today’s episode, we’re going to focus on the, Enneagram…
"When you cultivate mindfulness, you start to have all experiences that come from within that aren't necessarily framed in any religious context."Charlotte Thaarup-Owen In a world where sharing your beliefs can divide and alienate, exchanging controversial opinions through an open, accepting, and honest conversation is refreshing. Today’s guest, Charlotte Thaarup-Owen and I have very different beliefs when it comes to spirituality. Nonetheless, we’re both after the same outcome - to become better individuals. As Ram Dass famously said, “we are all just walking each other home.” Charlotte is the founder…
"Once you recognize that you are an essential element in the universe, you become a conduit of goodness and a child of God."Barry Shore It’s no surprise that stress leads to illness and struggle in one's life. While going through stress is inevitable, Barry Shore says one good way to fight it is to SMILE, which is an acronym for "See Miracles In Life Everyday." While you may not feel like doing so while in the thick of things, it is doable and it leads to powerful outcomes. Barry Shore's…
"I do believe that all of us have that creative spark in us for something. For me, it was writing and storytelling. "Lisa Papademetriou Like art, writing aims to express, inspire, and educate. It holds power to touch and even save people's lives. However, pouring your heart out through your writing can prove quite challenging. As a prolific writer myself with three books published by O’Reilly and hundreds of articles published over a variety of media sites, I've had my fair share of the dreaded writer's block. With a new…
"I don't treat disabilities. I help people unwrap their gifts because the gift won't unwrap itself."Dr. Edward Hallowell There is no one "right" way of thinking, learning, and behaving. Yet so many people have had the ADD or ADHD label slapped on them. Sadly, Attention Deficit is considered a disorder, even a disability. But what if it’s more like a superpower? According to my guest, the world renowned Dr. Ned Hallowell, to call it a disorder is a huge mistake. It's a trait that, if managed well, becomes a superpower.…
"In everything I do, I am aiming to reveal more light."Stephan Spencer My guiding principle is to reveal light in everything I do. I hope that comes through on this podcast. I really do think about it every time I interview a guest. And of course I consider that when I appear on other people’s podcasts too. CK Lin of the Noble Warrior Podcast interviewed me on How to Have Transcendent Transformations In Life and Business. I talked about why habit changes don't work but identity shifts do. I shared…
"The journey of becoming is one’s personas being integrated over time into a full being."Dr. John Demartini It’s always a pleasure and an honor to talk to people in tune with their intuition and on track with their soul mission. They just seem to emanate light, and who wouldn’t want to access their deep wisdom? Many of my recent episodes have focused on spirituality. I think that when your spirit is fed, everything else just lines up. Today I am joined by a polymath who has already shared so much…
"Responsibility is the gateway to freedom and peace. Avoiding responsibility maintains the emotional and mental paralysis we're in. We remain trapped because we're not taking action."Dr. Sam Qurashi It’s important to remind ourselves that emotions aren’t ever meant to be suppressed. Feel it fully and let it pass through you. My guest believes that emotional stress is the bane of modern living and a global problem, wounding billions of people and affecting countless families. As a psychiatric resident in a hospital, when he witnessed profound healing happen, it was due…
"Being on masterminds is not about networking. It is investing in yourself to grow in different aspects of life."Stephan Spencer How do you invest in yourself? In my case, one of the ways I invest in myself is through masterminds. I’m a connoisseur of high-level masterminds. At any given moment I’m in 5 or 6 masterminds at the same time. Many people believe that masterminds are about networking - meeting people to grow and market your business. Like it’s a BNI, Business Networking International, group. It’s so much more than…
