Why do we pull back just as life starts heating up? In this episode of Mindset Matters More, Andy breaks down the thermostat theory from The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks—and how self-sabotage creeps in when things get too good.

Whether it’s money, love, or success, we all have an inner “comfort setting.” When life rises above it, we unconsciously cool things back down. Andy shares the subtle ways we block blessings, why grind culture isn’t the answer, and how to turn up the heat in your life without burning out.

If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why do I keep getting in my own way?”—this one’s for you.

“Shoot for the moon, and even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.” Sounds poetic, but it’s also a little scientifically inaccurate—and that’s exactly why Andy is talking about it. In this episode of Mindset Matters More, we’re breaking down what it really means to aim high, dream bigger, and push past the self-imposed limits that keep us stuck.

Andy shares why your brain needs big, bold goals—even the ones that feel impossible—to expand your sense of what’s possible. Because if you’re stuck thinking, “I can’t,” you’re already at zero. Learn how to stretch your mindset, reframe your limits, and adopt the belief that abundance is for YOU.

If you’re ready to stop playing small and start aiming for galaxies, this one’s for you.

You can’t become something new while acting like the old you. This episode is your permission—and your plan—to start living the life you say you want.

Are you really giving 100%? Or are you half-assing your way through life, business, relationships, and goals? In this episode of Mindset Matters More, Andy breaks down the sneaky ways we give less than our best—and how it shows up in self-sabotage, ego-driven excuses, and even the tasks we flat-out hate.

From thinking certain jobs are “beneath you” to convincing yourself it doesn’t matter, half-assing isn’t just about effort—it’s about alignment, discipline, and integrity. Andy shares why the little details matter, why delegation isn’t always the answer, and how to find love (or at least purpose) in the hard stuff so you can finally show up fully.

If you’re ready to ditch mediocrity and start living like you mean it, this one’s for you.

Today we’re getting all kinds of Jesusy—“Our Father who art in Heaven,” you know the vibe. Andy’s back from Portugal and diving straight into the deep stuff: what does it really mean to be kind? Not the fake-nice, say-what-people-want kind of kind—but the kind that makes you unshakeable, righteous, and rooted in divine mercy.

In this episode of Mindset Matters More, we explore how walking in forgiveness and resisting the urge to retaliate isn’t weakness—it’s power. Andy unpacks the spiritual buffer between wrongdoing and consequence, the strength in pausing before you react, and how kindness isn’t about approval—it’s about becoming someone even betrayal can’t break.

If you’ve ever wanted to rise above the petty and step into your higher self, this one’s for you.

Hey guys, it’s Andy with Mindset Matters More and today we’re diving deep into a deceptively simple question: Am I a good person?

This episode explores the paradox of goodness—the fine line between genuine generosity and self-serving acts done in the name of kindness. Can you give too much? Can being “nice” sometimes be more about you than the person you’re helping? And how do we reconcile the messy, imperfect parts of ourselves with the desire to be good?

I share a powerful analogy about pouring from a pitcher into a full cup, reflect on what too much love can actually look like, and break down the three-part process that I believe defines goodness: acknowledge, accept, and correct.

This one’s raw, honest, and very human. No perfection here—just a lot of heart.

👇 Let me know what you think makes someone good.

Hey friends, it’s Andy with Mindset Matters More, and I’m about to head to Portugal — but first, I have to fit my entire life into a 21-pound carry-on. No checked bag. No backup plan. Just vibes, flip-flops, and a capsule wardrobe I’m praying will work.

In this episode, I unpack (pun intended) the chaos of minimalist travel, my overthinking spirals about underwear emergencies, gym gear, and European laundry machines that might betray me. I talk strategy, stress, and surrender — and share how planning this trip is weirdly teaching me to let go, live simply, and trust that I’ll figure it out as I go.

So how do you pack? Are you team “ball gown just in case,” or do you live like my husband with two pairs of shorts and blind optimism? Let’s talk about it.

What would your past self say to you today? In this heartfelt episode of Mindset Matters More, I read a letter I wrote to myself five years ago using the service FutureMe—where you write an email to your future self and schedule it to arrive years later.

This morning, that email landed in my inbox. I hadn’t remembered exactly what I wrote, but reading it out loud on this episode got real, fast. Vulnerable, emotional, and powerful—this letter reminded me of a truth I didn’t even know I needed: my capacity, my ability, and how far I’ve truly come.

I’m sharing it with you not just because it moved me, but because I believe we all need these reminders sometimes. Tune in—you might just be inspired to write one to yourself, too.

Hey guys, it’s Andy with Mindset Matters More—and today we’re diving into one of the weirdest, wildest, most mind-expanding questions I’ve asked myself lately: What if 1 + 1 = 10? Would you believe me?

In this episode, I unpack a powerful metaphor about how limited understanding can make us reject truth too quickly. I share a personal story from my journey learning Kabbalah—specifically, how I struggled with a concept I didn’t agree with… and how that resistance led me to challenge not the idea, but my understanding of it.

From binary math to beliefs about life and death, we’re talking about:

• Why being wrong might actually mean you’re on the edge of expansion

• How to hold space for what you don’t yet understand

• The beauty of being a “philomath” (someone who learns for the love of it)

• And why sometimes, you need to ask if you’re missing the library behind someone’s truth

So let’s get curious. Let’s get uncomfortable. Let’s explore what it really means to open your mind—because maybe, just maybe, 1 + 1 is 10.
