In this reflective and energizing episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany share insights from a transformative retreat in Sedona, Arizona, where they hit pause on the noise of life to reconnect, recharge, and reset. Immersed in nature and guided coaching, their time away became a powerful reminder of the importance of creating sacred space—for clarity, creativity, and connection.

The episode explores how stepping outside our day-to-day grind allows us to re-evaluate where we’re operating on autopilot. The couple discusses the deep work they did as individuals and as partners, highlighting how we all benefit from moments of grounding, intentional presence, and time to “replug.” From journaling and meditation to desert hikes and labyrinth walks, their experience reaffirmed a powerful truth: we must lead ourselves before we can lead others.

One of the standout takeaways is Patrick’s concept of Mind Shui—a term he coined to describe the intentional reorganization of mental space, much like Feng Shui aligns physical space. Mind Shui is about removing internal clutter—old beliefs, emotional baggage, unprocessed thoughts—so that energy can flow clearly across all seven areas of life. The clearer the mind, the faster the momentum.

They also touch on economic uncertainties, generational divides, and the importance of keeping perspective during turbulent times. At the core of it all is this message: when the world feels chaotic, come back to what you can control—your mindset, your energy, your environment.
