January 04, 2022 New Year Episode: Science-Based Tips for Keeping your New Year's Resolutions!
In this episode, Steve and Erin share their New Year's Resolutions for the year, chat about why it can be so hard sometimes to stick to these goals, and they go over 5 science-based tips to help you keep your New Year's Resolutions.

A resolution has a far greater chance of being a success if it meets the following criteria:

1) Cue-based plan
2) Has a penalty clause
3) It's Fun
4) Allows room for emergencies
5) Has support from friends

A few books that Steve and Erin read in 2021 that they highly recommend:

Steve:
The Seat of the Soul by Gary Zukov
Super Attractor by Gabrielle Burnstien
Awakening the Soul of Power by Christian de la Huerta
You are a Badass by by Jen Sincero
A Promised Land by Barack Obama

Erin:

December 31, 2021 Feel Good Friday! The Story of the Wandering Fish Chair and the Matching Tattoo!
This week’s 6-minute Feel Good Friday Episode tells the story of Emily Delfavero, a very unique chair, and a very special Facebook Group that brought them all together.

Emily, an auto mechanic from Syracuse, New York spotted a chair posted to a Facebook group that happened to be the exact fish chair that inspired her to get an image of it tattooed on her leg a couple years earlier. She had not only never owned the chair, but had never actually seen the chair, nor knew it existed. She had only seen the design on a doll house chair years ago. So she commented on the post with a photo of her matching tattoo.
This inspires a group of complete strangers to take action, raise the money, and somehow get the chair to Emily who lives 300 hundred miles away. This is a story of overcoming abuse, kindness, compassion, connectedness, and love all rolled into one.

December 17, 2021Feel Good Friday! A Second Chance for People and Things who Deserve It!
This week’s feel good story is about a company called Second Chance, in Baltimore, Md. Second Chance offers 2nd chances for materials and 2nd chances for people.
Second Chance is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides people, materials and the environment with a second chance. They deconstruct buildings and homes, salvage usable materials, and make those and other donated items available to the public for reuse at their more than 200,000 square foot retail center. With the revenue generated, they provide job training and workforce development for those with various employment obstacles in the Baltimore region. Many of the people they hire, were previously incarcerated and/or had drug addictions.

Second Chance's mission has always been:
to retrain and create employment for displaced and unemployed workers, in many cases, previously incarcerated workers;
to reclaim building material to reduce environmental harm and demolition debris in burgeoning landfills; and
to renew both people and products to a useful, purposeful life.

December 07, 2021 Mark Bunn: Vedic Science, Dharma, Breathwork, Conscious Living, and the Importance of Finding Our Purpose.
Mark Bunn has spent the last 30 years studying the ancient wisdoms of health, transcendence, higher consciousness, dharma (natural purpose) and the deeper mysteries of life.

Drawing primarily on the timeless Vedic tradition of India (including Ayurveda) and the teachings of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, he discovered how numerous cultures throughout history have known of a great secret to life – that hidden beyond our physical universe are certain unseen ‘natural laws’ governing all of life.

Most importantly, by understanding and learning how to live in tune with these eternal laws of life, we can enjoy exceptionally good health, freedom from suffering, maximum evolution and growth to higher states of consciousness - the supreme state of ‘enlightenment’.

Known as Dharmic Living - Life as nature intended - this is what Mark talks about in his books (Ancient Wisdom for Modern health), keynote talks, podcasts or as he says, "mumbling to himself because no-one else is listening."

In this episode we chat about:

* Vedic Science
* Dharmic Living
* Ayurvedic Medicine
* Ice baths and intermittent fasting
* The Consciousness Revolution
* Secrets of the world's healthiest, longest living people
* Breathwork and how it can change your life
* How ancient wisdom can help maximize business success
* What do the world's healthiest and highest performers do differently?
* Mark's advice on how we can help make the world a better place
