A lot of people get sucked into the, into the swirling waters of daily life and responsibility and just everything that's on everybody's plate. There's a lot going on that it’s so easy to be frazzled, frenzied, and pressured. Everything piles up and we live in a state of overwhelm. How do you create happiness intentionally? Communications expert, brand consultant, and executive coach Sam Horn says you just need to get out of your head and calm and come to your senses. Sam believes that the happiness we seek is available anytime we want for a moment's notice, and that we see something deeply when we are 100% present. If we stop for a moment even in the midst of that and look around us, we’re reminded of what really matters and gives us more grace about handling the responsibilities in our life. As Henry Miller quote says, when we give close attention to anything, even a blade of grass becomes an indescribably beautiful work. Sam talks about what happiness means and shares how she’s been able to handle pivots, adversity, and stress.

The soul is our guiding force. If we connect with the soul or listen to the inspirations and the impulses of our soul, it will guide you on a pathway that is so much better than your mind could ever imagine. The battle of Jennifer McLean’s life has been to listen to the soul and not the fears, worries, upsets, and stresses that the mind creates. Jennifer is an internationally acclaimed healer, author, speaker, edge pusher, and transformational change agent. She is the creator of the renowned healing accelerant, the Spontaneous Transformation Technique (STT), that delivers instant transformation and healing in seven to ten minutes. Jennifer shares that she was stressed out in her business and wasn’t necessarily happy. She was the definition of success, but the pivot point came when she was burnt out and couldn't do it anymore. She realized there's more than just the business A to B to C to D. There's the soul, and when the soul says you're done with something, it doesn't matter how hard you hang on, you are moving on. Jennifer unpacks the challenges she faced and the pivot she did in order for her to finally love her life.

The real key to happiness is knowing who you are. Most of us are so lost in everyday life that we don't know what our purpose is, what we are good at, and what truly brings us joy. Most of us are caught up in only focusing on wanting to make a comfortable living. Japanese novelist Ken Honda, known as the "Warren Buffet of Japan", argues that if you know who you are and what you’re supposed to do, you can still be happy even though you may not have money. Ken discovered that if you do what you love, you’re more likely to succeed than pursuing something you don’t like. Ken discusses the findings from his many books that have supported people in their quest to do what they love and who, in the process, find happiness and money. What can you do to find who you are?

Change happens. Resilience expert Adam Markel and his inspiring guests teach you how to embrace and leverage change in order to thrive. No matter what life throws your way.
Change…
Resilience is the secret key―the “it” factor―and the thing Change Proof host Adam Markel knows best. In his bestseller, PIVOT, Adam taught how building resilience can supercharge your life and career. Now, he shows how becoming Change Proof helps you move beyond managing change to actively embracing it — actually using times of uncertainty, crisis, and chaos to create opportunities and stimulate individual and team growth. Through insightful discussions with business leaders, social innovators and inspiring authorities, Resilience Expert Adam Markel uncovers and shares ways to utilize change, fully embrace new opportunities, master the art and science of innovation in today’s disruptive marketplace, and use your “disadvantages'' as stepping stones.
Whether you lead a team, pursue entrepreneurial passions or are looking to achieve a higher capacity in your performance and life, Change Proof is the place for life-changing stories, and real tools you can actually use―AND WILL WANT TO!
Change Proof is about thriving instead of just surviving. And this is a skill you can cultivate, both personally and professionally. Using case studies, current research, and real-life anecdotes from his work as an executive mentor, Markel and his guests explore concrete actions you can take in order to become “change proof” and change your relationship with change.
Bestselling Author, Renowned Keynote Speaker, Business Mentor, and CEO, Adam Markel has accomplished plenty and checked life’s “success boxes” and all of that work showed him something very profound about life in general―it’s not always about that. You can have success and still be unhappy. You can be in charge and still have stress. You can build your dream and not feel fulfilled. Change Proof goes beyond the topical, beyond the check boxes, beyond the list of things we think we’re supposed to be doing, to uncover the layer where our performance, peace and happiness exist.
When we think of resilience, we think of being able to “roll with the punches” and “bounce back” after uncertainty or change. But Resilience Expert and Researcher Adam Markel encourages you to aim higher. Change Proof is a show that will teach you how to truly, actually embrace change―to find the creative opportunity in uncertainty, as opposed to simply riding it out or reacting to it.
Let’s get real. You could be aiming higher. You could be thriving instead of surviving. You could be hitting back when life throws punches―instead of dodging and ducking. And there is no better time than right now to take back your life and to love it, no matter what.
Change Proof isn’t just a podcast, it’s a life philosophy that shows you how to truly, actually embrace change―to find the silver lining, use uncertainty to your advantage, and pivot when life is stressful, into something that serves you instead of something that stops you.
Drop into weekly episodes so full of the good stuff you won’t hear on any other show, you’ll be binging and growing instead of watching those reruns of Friends you’ve already seen anyway. When you tune in, you will learn how to thrive on uncertainty instead of merely managing it. This is where it begins, this is where you stop running from pivots and learn to love leaning into them, even when you aren’t sure of the outcome.
Through Change Proof, Adam Markel offers a much needed dose of energy, HEART and real talk to your day, making this a show experts call “bingeable” and “a must listen".
