Welcome to a brand new episode of MorningCoach®, where your host JB Glossinger invites you to embrace the start of August with renewed focus and energy. In this inspiring kickoff to the month, JB highlights the power of positivity and optimism as essential tools—not just for brightening your outlook, but for strategically driving progress and creativity during this pivotal time of year. As summer fades and we gear up for a productive fall, JB encourages listeners to get intentional about setting goals, aligning daily habits, and building momentum that can transform not just your week, but the rest of your year.

In this episode, JB gets real about the common challenges we all face—moments of doubt, negativity bias, and the temptation to give up when things don’t go as planned. He offers personal insights, sharing stories of his own struggles and triumphs, and gives practical advice for breaking out of negativity, shifting your internal narrative, and finding gratitude in your current circumstances. With the help of MorningCoach® tools and techniques—like organizing your priorities with the “seven Ps,” reflecting on your wins, and anchoring your week with projects that energize rather than drain you—JB shows how optimism can move from a vague hope to a practiced, life-changing habit.

JB also gives us a roadmap for the week to come, including a deep dive into Anthony De Mello’s transformative book, “Awareness,” discussions around handling apathy, addressing financial abundance, and integrating small daily rituals for better self-care and organization. With actionable prompts, such as writing down your three “roses” (the things that are working right now), and reflections on how to reframe areas where you’ve been too negative, this episode is packed with wisdom for anyone ready to take control of their mindset and cultivate more joy, energy, and fulfillment. Start your day with MorningCoach® and let’s dance in the rain together—because positivity isn’t about ignoring the storm, it’s about learning to thrive right in the middle of it.
