  • Being Seen and Poetry w/ Guest Shelby Leigh

    3.21 Being Seen and Poetry w/ Guest Shelby Leigh

    Shelby shares her story of how she was a shy person in college who decided to write a poem a day for a year and share them anonymously, to deciding to step into the identity she wanted to embody as an author and claim ownership of her talents. She went from being anonymous to having over 500,000 followers on social media within the past 7 years! What are you shy about sharing with others that they might love? How can you become more visible in your field of expertise or with your talents?

    We also talk about the main subject of her poetry, which revolves around mental health and self-love. We talk about those for a little and I actually share a poem that comes to me in the moment as we're recording. How can you trust yourself and your abilities and talents more? How can you share them with others to help make the world a better place?
    Be sure to listen to today's episode and check out Shelby's website and socials to connect with her and read all of her beautiful poetry. She has a new book coming out next month in January!
    Remember, you can rewrite your stars and be seen and share your talents with others so that everyone is a little bit better. :)

  • Pain, Movement, and Your Body w/ Guest Molly Jaeger

    3.19 Pain, Movement, and Your Body w/ Guest Molly Jaeger

    Molly and I being this episode talking about pain, how it is very subjective to our perception of it, and how we can influence that. I share some examples and she shares from some studies. She also talks about how we can become so accustomed to pain or tension that we don't realize it's there until we relax or ease up. When have you noticed that you're in tension and released it from your body? How can you change your perception so that you have less pain? Molly and I discuss those things too.

    We also talk about how to use movement as a catalyst to release tension (which causes pain in the first place many times) in the body. We talk about how the mind and the body are connected and how pain is related to both. In what ways have you used your mind to mitigate pain before? Have you ever used your body to help calm your mind?
    Be sure to listen to today's episode and check out Molly's website to connect with her and learn more about how she helps people to work through their pain! Finally, remember, you can live pain-free and happy, use the tools mentioned and live awesomely and freely!

    Greg shares his story and various laws of success that he's learned throughout the many years and many experiences he's had while studying to learn these very things. How would your life be different if you had a personal book of philosophy for your own life? How would your life be different if you reviewed your progress and goals on a consistent basis? (like weekly!)
