In this episode, we’ll talk about all that’s going on with the global Coronavirus pandemic and how at first we didnt take it too seriously because we were not so confident in all the news we were seeing and reading from the different news outlets. Some of our friends felt it was a conspiracy, others were blaming Trump and the government, while others thought the media was blowing the whole thing out of proportion, but it got real for us when schools were closed and other events cancelled.

We’ve observed people buying up groceries and other basic stuff to stockpile them in their homes and at some point we realized we had to do it too just for our family’s survival because things have just been going downhill every 24 hours. The one thing we’re going to highlight though, is the fact that we’re all going through this together. Personally, I had met with three potential buyers for the bakery just a week ago, but with all the rumors making rounds, I had to close the bakery on the 16th and lay off my staff. Two staff members had even already left because they were scared for their lives.

It’s been one problem after the next, but at the end of the day, we just keep appreciating that we're safe, and we're healthy. Nobody gets to complain at our house. Our kids are taking their school classes online, and I just can't imagine what it’s like for those parents who are having to homeschool their kids while also having to work or do other important things at the same time. At the end of the day, we all just have to do the best that we can through this, and find the blessings in this current situation, because when you have a roof over your head, and food to eat and drink, then you’re super lucky, because there are people out there who have it worse.

We challenge you to have some compassion and lend a hand to those in need in whatever way you can, and together let’s push ourselves to quarantine in our homes so we can flatten the Coronavirus curve and come out victorious. Listen in to the episode and share with as many people as possible so they can also know that they’re not alone, and don’t forget to join our 30-Day Challenge.

Key Points Discussed:

• From chilling to survival mode within just 24 hours and all the craziness going on due to the Coronavirus scare (03:15)
• All the unexpected and horrible disruptions and helping our tribe through the process (06:35)
• We're all going through the same storm, but all of our boats are different (10:44)
• Imagine trying to control 26 to 35 students on a Zoom call (13:41)
• Counting our blessings and being grateful (16:20)
• A test to see how we're going to rise to the occasion (21:13)
• Focusing on connections and reaching out to the people that we don't often have the time to reach out to (24:57)
• This is an opportunity to come up with great ideas that will thrive and change the world (32:12)
• The rise in underlying conflicts that has caused a rise in divorces in China after the quarantine (38:03)
• Watching Contagion and the similarities in the movie to what’s happening now (48:55)

In this episode, we’ll have a conversation with Adele Tevlin, the founder of Adele Wellness, a premium weight loss consultancy for high performance professionals with demanding lifestyles. Adele works with CEOs and C-suite executives to help them push past their BS in order to produce profound results. She's also a behavioral expert and pattern interrupter that uses a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, neuroscience and psychology to ensure that clients achieve their transformation and breakthroughs, and stay committed to the things that they're trying to achieve in their lives. She's a mom to an almost four year old boy and is engaged to marry the love of her life in June. Adele specializes in helping people see their blind spots, and break their behaviors and routines in order to get out of their own way so they can accomplish their goals. 

She’s going to talk to us about how our inner voice (the ego) can take over our entire lives if we allow it to, and almost always, not in a good way. Our narrative is always a part of the ego part of our mind (The limbic system) which tells us we are not enough, we are not safe, we need to have more comparison, judgment, or fear, and many other things. But the more we work on ourselves, and improve our mindsets, become more aware and mindful, we are able to quiet that voice and it becomes more of a whisper. 

That way we are able to still take action on things even when we hear that voice. Unfortunately for a lot of people, they don’t work on themselves, and so they tend to believe that what their ego tells them they are is who they really are. And that’s what Adele seeks to change in people’s lives. She will dive into how our subconscious patterning is formed between the ages of zero to seven, how that ends up shaping our identity, the way it affected her in her own life, and how she overcame it. It’s going to be such an eye-opening episode that will help us all rewrite our limiting beliefs about ourselves so we can push forward with confidence and achieve greatness in every part of our lives.

Key points discussed:

• How sometimes we are our own worst enemy with the things we say to ourselves (03:37)
• Understanding our ego and being a super achiever on steroids (04:42)
• Rewriting and rewiring our limiting beliefs and patterns (07:30)
• Understanding the law of cause and effect: How our thoughts create our reality (10:25)
• You can't solve a problem from the same level it was created (16:20)
• Choosing to either feed our ego or feed our higher self (20:17)
• Meditating and doing mindfulness work to transcend the ego (26:21)
• One cannot really create at the level that they’re capable of when they’re living in fear (30:17)
• The importance of understanding that our thoughts create our feelings and behaviors (33:50)
• Asking ourselves the right questions so we can stop being judgemental (37:34)
• Appreciating our parents and understanding that how they raised us was at their highest level of consciousness and capacity (43:04)

What happens when you are sick? You know, for more than one day (for one day, you get the benefit of just being sick and trying to sleep as much as you can), like sick for a week? What do you do? What if you were sick and feeling miserable for a lot longer. You might get angry. You might start cursing the world. You might just give up hope. And what if it was worse and you knew you’re going to die? Think about the things that you wouldn’t do during that little time that you had left.

That’s exactly what this week’s guest, Ari Meisel, did when he was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease. He realized that he had to make some changes. So he did. He started realizing that he could optimize, automate, and outsource all of his tasks in life and business to be able to get things done easier than he was doing them before and deal with the daily stresses of life. 

As an entrepreneur, author, CEO, TED speaker, real estate developer, green building consultant, and productivity expert, Ari is passionate about teaching people, mostly entrepreneurs, how to master the art of doing less, while still getting more done, and he’s going to talk to us about that and share his own personal experience, so we can all learn how to optimize our lives to PUSH past overwhelm and have the freedom we've always wanted. 

Key Points Discussed:

• The widespread overwhelm that people are experiencing with juggling their personal and professional lives (03:38)
• Tips and frameworks for how to deal with overwhelm (05:01)
• How extreme restriction helps people get their shit together (08:19)
• How trying to get people to see what the future looks like with the way that they're doing things now works (11:00)
• Focusing on the things that really matter by applying business efficiency techniques into our day to day personal lives (12:51)
• Growing by offloading 70% of what you do today (17:01)
• The majority of the things that you do can be done by other people or other things, as well or better, and probably faster (17:57)
• The crazy household things that Ari and his wife decided to outsource or automate (20:56)
• Becoming more plan-oriented than reactive, and saving time to do less (26:53)
• Progress is about the ability to abandon things that used to work for you (31:21)

In life, most of us grow up being told that we can only follow a certain path. That we must study hard in school and follow certain career paths, so we can grow up to be successful people in society. So most of us come up with the mindset that we can only focus on certain areas of study, so we can fit into certain careers, and when somewhere along the line we’ve achieved all that, but we’re not happy with the way our lives are, it becomes near impossible to leave what we have to venture into something else that can make us happy and more fulfilled.

In this episode, Eddie and I have a conversation with Goli Kalkhoran, a lawyer-turned-entrepreneur and the host of the Lessons from a Quitter Podcast where she tells the stories of people who have left the corporate world to pursue their dreams. Goli’s is a self-professed perfectionist and steered her life based upon the praise of others. When she realized that it was her concern for other people’s opinions that kept her from leaving the career she hated, she had a decision to make. She could either live a life that pleases others, or live the life she was capable of. After practicing law for 6 years, she obviously chose the latter.

She was a lawyer that was stressed, overworked and unfulfilled.  The thought of doing legal work for years until her retirement made her sick to her stomach and seemed unimaginable. But so did quitting. For her, being a lawyer was such a big part of her identity. She had known from a very early age that’s what she wanted to do, and she had invested so much time and money into her education, that the thought of not being a lawyer didn’t seem like a real possibility. But finally, one day, with a push from her husband and a host of other things, she quit and started on her journey into entrepreneurship.

Goli will share how hard it is to realize you’ve spent your entire life driving for a singular goal only to realize how miserable you truly are, and talk about just how crippling a perfectionist mindset can be. She will also share all the valuable wisdom and lessons she learned from quitting. So if you’ve been wondering how you can go after the life you truly desire, then this episode is perfect for you. It will definitely give you the push you need to go for it. Enjoy.

Key points discussed:

• Lawyer turned entrepreneur and how important it is to quit when it’s necessary (02:53)
• The misleading frameworks of society that lead people into the wrong careers  (08:12)
• The meaning people attach to failure and how that keeps them from trying new things (13:49)
• How we rob ourselves of happiness by living a life that we’re not happy in (19:29)
• The role that the “Seasons of life” played in helping Goli’s with her shift (26:38)
• As human beings we need growth and change (28:41)
• Being honest with ourselves and making the decision to quit and try something new (37:32)
• Try and fail at things and you’re not going to die (40:42)
• We are living in the greatest time in history to start a side hustle (43:27)
• You will not have success without failure (49:09)

I saw an article recently that was talking about how 78% of Americans don't like their jobs, meaning they don’t like to go to work, and a lot of them talk about dreaming about starting a business, but they never actually know how they can go about it, and when they do find out all the hard work and sweat they would have to put it, most of the just back away. 

While at a family birthday party the other day, someone approached me and told me about how he would like to leave his 9 to 5 and start a hair and beauty business. But he didn’t know anything about the industry, so I advised him to go out and do some research so he could learn about the business and the industry it’s in before he ever considers starting it. This is critical for anyone who is thinking about starting a business.

In this episode, we will talk about the major differences between dreaming and doing especially where becoming a business owner is concerned. A lot of people believe that when they start a business around what they’re good at, that they are automatically guaranteed of success, but that is so far from the truth, because running a business is about so much more than that. One has to have skills in leadership, marketing, sales, communication, and so many other areas to successfully and sustainably run a business. 

And so, before one endeavors into setting up a new business, regardless of whether it’s centered around what they love or not, they must first of all invest in acquiring all those skills and learn everything about the industry they’re going into, so they can be better prepared to hustle and grind no matter what challenges they face to make sure that they succeed in the business. I’m going to share my own experiences with that from the time I started the bakery up until the point where I’m at now, and share all the actionable lessons I learned along the way, so you can apply them in your own entrepreneurial journey. So listen, learn, and go implement.

Key Points Discussed:

• Having a “What in the world” and how Eddie takes retelling stories to a whole nother level (02:17)
• Everyone says they would love to leave their 9 to 5, but no one actually takes the action towards that (09:32)
• The huge difference between dreaming something and actually immersing yourself into it and doing whatever is necessary to make it work (14:47)
• The Instagram life dreams that people have about starting a business (21:02)
• The most important thing one needs to be a successful personal trainer (26:30)
• The difference between a dreamer and a doer (28:22)
• Immerse yourself to find out the business within the business and where the profit really is (36:06)
• The value in networking with people in other businesses other than the one you’re in (38:58)
• The power of mindset shifts especially for business owners (43:22)
• Make yourself love whatever season you're in right now (48:54)
• A business owner is financially compensated in direct proportion to the problem that their business solves (55:14)
• Don't quit your damn day job yet (58:07)

This year has been super special for me because it’s the year that I've decided to close the chapter of being a bakery owner and pursue a new interest in my life. It’s been a really awesome journey running the bakery with my awesome team. With the coaching/consulting business that Eddie and I run, we’ve been travelling a lot and juggling both businesses for the last two years has been a little hectic for me, but despite that, my main reasons for choosing to sell the bakery are more personal. 

I’m a completely different person than I was when we started the bakery back in 2009, and my priorities and passions have completely shifted my life. The fact that it’s been over a decade since we started the bakery was also enough of a reason to go into something else.

In this episode, we will share the amazing experiences starting and running the bakery has given us and our kids, and the valuable lessons we’ve learned about hard work and never giving up on our goals no matter the challenges we encounter. 

I’m very excited to step into the next chapter of my life helping women and small business owners step into their power and create the businesses of their dreams, and in that spirit, Eddie and I will share the six steps you can take to help you with the shift in the transition you might be going through as a business owner. Stay tuned as we dive into each one of those steps so you can learn more about them and how you can implement them into your life for greater success and fulfillment.

When was the last time you did a full revision of yourself? 

Adult life can be a lot of work if we don’t find a way to focus on what we want to achieve in the short and long term. That’s why we took some inspiration from various check-up systems to help you be more aware of your process and to determine if you’re going in the direction you need to be going right now. 

In this episode, we discuss creating your adult report card, grading your performance in life using very specific categories, in which we include:

• Communication skills
• Creativity
• Decision making
• Leadership
• Self-confidence

We want to give you that push that encourages you to pursue the action and gets you out of the rout. The best way to do this is by getting yourself accountability for every area of your life you need improvement a start evaluating each one of them.

Tune in to start the exploration process, and if you need some help by getting all the categories in order, don’t forget to go to thepushpodcast.com, where you can download the list and take it with you anytime, anywhere you go.
