Passion Struck with John R. Miles

In this inspiring and refreshingly candid conversation, Dr. Tiffany Moon—a board-certified anesthesiologist, entrepreneur, and reality TV star—opens up about her journey from high-achieving perfectionist to someone learning to prioritize joy, authenticity, and self-compassion. She shares powerful stories from her new book Joy Prescriptions, revealing how chasing success left her burned out and disconnected, and what it took to rewrite her inner script.Together, we explore how societal expectations, burnout, and achievement culture can rob us of joy—and how to reclaim it through intention, play, and honest self-reflection.Click here for the full show notes:  https://passionstruck.com/tiffany-moon-write-yourself-prescription-for-joy/Join the Ignition Room!

In this solo episode, John R. Miles explores how mental health isn’t just about managing stress—it’s the invisible infrastructure of everything that gives life meaning. From personal breakdowns to societal myths about strength, John shares why ignoring mental well-being doesn’t delay the cost—it multiplies it—and what we can do to reclaim emotional sustainability.Join the new Passion Struck Community, The Ignition Room: https://station.page/passionstruckThis episode is part of Passion Struck’s Mental Health Awareness Month series, setting the tone for upcoming episodes on emotional resilience, internal reframing, and intentional habits for psychological well-being.Key Takeaways:

• Mental health is not a side conversation—it’s the foundation of purpose, clarity, and connection.
• Emotional erosion happens slowly and quietly, not all at once.
• We’ve internalized the belief that needing help means failure—but in reality, it reflects emotional intelligence.
• Disconnection begins when we stop believing we matter.
• Productivity without presence leads to quiet burnout.
• You don’t need to hit a breaking point to start tending to your mind.

What if the most important thing you could do in moments of confusion, fear, or identity crisis… was to pause and sit with the question, rather than race toward an answer?In a world that values certainty, performance, and instant solutions, Elizabeth Weingarten is offering something rare: a permission slip to not know. On this episode of the Passion Struck podcast, John R. Miles speaks with Elizabeth about her book, How to Fall in Love with Questions: A New Way to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty, and the profound shift that happens when we stop treating life’s hardest questions like problems to fix — and start treating them like partners in our growth.Click here for the full show notes: Join the Ignition Room!
Join the new Passion Struck Community! - The Ignition Room: https://station.page/passionstruckKey Takeaways:

• Uncertainty Isn’t a Problem—It’s a Portal - Life’s hardest questions aren’t meant to be solved immediately. They’re invitations to grow, reflect, and connect with your truest self over time.
• Our Obsession With Certainty Can Be Harmful - Fast, tidy answers—especially from influencers or institutions—often suppress deeper truths and can lead us further from what we truly need.
• Questions Hold the Key to Meaningful Change -Embracing open-ended inquiry helps us better navigate identity shifts, career transitions, moral dilemmas, and emotional upheaval.
• Living in the Question Requires Emotional Stamina -Sitting with not-knowing is psychologically demanding but ultimately expansive. It asks for patience, vulnerability, and a tolerance for ambiguity.
• Behavioral Science Supports the Power of Inquiry - Research shows that reflective questioning enhances decision-making, strengthens relationships, and deepens personal resilience.
• You Don’t Need to Be an Expert to Explore Your Life -“Question literacy” is a skill we can all build. The most important answers often emerge not from authority, but from curiosity and self-trust.

In this powerful episode of Passion Struck, John R. Miles sits down with Olympic silver medalist and skateboarding legend Tom Schaar, the first person in history to land a 1080—a mind-blowing three full spins mid-air. But Tom’s story isn’t just about defying gravity. It’s about defying doubt, embracing failure, and staying grounded while the world spins around you.At just 12 years old, Tom did what no one had ever done in skateboarding. But what most people didn’t see were the 999 failed attempts it took to get there. In this intimate and inspiring conversation, Tom opens up about the mental discipline behind his success, how he handles fear, the evolution of his mindset from prodigy to pro, and what keeps him pushing limits even after Olympic podiums.Whether you’re an athlete, entrepreneur, or simply someone trying to overcome a personal hurdle—this conversation is for you.Click here for the full show notes: https://passionstruck.com/tom-schaar-how-to-fall-999-times-and-still-win/Join the Ignition Room!

In Episode 601 of the Passion Struck podcast, host John R. Miles sits down with renowned Tibetan Buddhist meditation master, Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, for a conversation that will stay with you long after it ends. Known for his radiant smile, open heart, and profound clarity, Rinpoche shares a perspective on emotional healing and inner peace that turns conventional thinking upside down.Rather than offering a roadmap to “fix yourself,” Rinpoche invites us to explore the idea that we already possess what we need. Drawing from his early life struggles with severe panic attacks, he shares how fear became his greatest teacher—an unlikely but powerful path to awakening.Click here for the full show notes: https://passionstruck.com/yongey-mingyur-rinpoche-why-the-path-is-with-you/Join the Ignition Room!
Join the new Passion Struck Community! - The Ignition Room: https://station.page/passionstruckThe conversation explores core themes like:

• Why pain isn’t the enemy, but a guide
• The illusion of needing to "earn" mattering or self-worth
• How awareness and compassion are not destinations—but your natural state
• The power of micro-moments to create deep transformation
• How to move from “I matter” to “we matter” in a fractured world

As Rinpoche explains, “Awareness doesn’t mean we get rid of thoughts or pain. It means we learn to hold them with kindness.” It’s a radical reframe—one that reminds us healing is not about becoming someone else, but about coming home to who we’ve always been.For more information on Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche - https://tergar.org/yongey-mingyur-rinpocheSponsors:

We tend to think of serendipity as something that just happens—a lucky break, a happy coincidence, a moment of chance. But what if it’s something deeper?In episode 600 of Passion Struck, host John R. Miles explores a powerful idea: serendipity becomes mattering the moment someone feels seen without expectation. It’s not just about luck. It’s about recognition—and how those unexpected, seemingly small moments can change the air we’re breathing.Join the new Passion Struck Community! - The Ignition Room: https://station.page/passionstruckThis episode asks the question: why do we remember certain moments that, on the surface, didn’t seem important? A text. A comment. A passing compliment. These interactions often stick with us not because of their content—but because of what they reflect back: you’re still visible. You still register in someone’s world.Key Takeaways:

• Serendipity is not luck—it’s a mirror of what we notice and act on.
• Moments of unexpected recognition can have biological and emotional impact.
• You don’t chase serendipity—you live in a way that invites it.
• Preparedness and presence are the mindset tools that turn randomness into resonance.
• The smallest messages, when well-timed, can become turning points.
• Feeling seen without expectation is one of the deepest human needs.
• Serendipity becomes mattering when it reflects back our worth.

Imagine that your thoughts, cravings—even your emotions—aren’t entirely your own. That they’re being driven by trillions of microscopic organisms living inside you. It sounds like science fiction, but in Episode 599 of Passion Struck, Dr. Steven Gundry explains why this is scientific fact.Dr. Gundry, a former cardiothoracic surgeon turned gut health expert, joined me to discuss his new book The Gut-Brain Paradox and the profound connection between your digestive system and your mental state. As he puts it, "We are passengers on a bus driven by our microbiome—and they’ve been at the wheel a lot longer than we have."For full show notes:  https://passionstruck.com/dr-steven-gundry-radically-heal-your-microbiome/Key Takeaways:

• Your Gut Runs the Show: Dr. Gundry explains how trillions of bacteria in your gut send messages that shape your thoughts, cravings, and emotional states.
• Leaky Gut Is Everywhere: If you’re battling fatigue, autoimmune disease, or mental fog, there’s a high chance you have a leaky gut—and it's reversible.
• Food as Medicine: Changing what you eat, including eliminating certain lectins and processed foods, can reverse chronic conditions like Parkinson’s, anxiety, and more.
• Microbes vs. Free Will: The bacteria in your gut may be influencing your decisions more than your conscious mind.
• Beyond SSRIs: Many antidepressants work by altering the microbiome, not just serotonin levels—a strong argument for gut-first mental health care.
