Life can be full of compromises. Some are not so good. We compromise with our dreams, our ambitions, our desires, and when we do that, we’re not truly living what I call “a purposely positive life.” On this episode, Tony Wechsler and Nichole Carlson are going to discuss "Living without Compromise.” Nichole is going to tell a bit of her story and discuss how we can make the decision to live each day the way WE decide.

We’ve been going through some difficult times when it comes to healthcare today. Now, on the positive side, we’ve made great progress in medicine, but many of the treatments are not actually cures. We just medicate and treat the symptoms and not the root cause. Is there a better way? On today's episode, Tony Wechsler and Dr. Sarah LoBisco discuss the question "Is Spirituality the Missing Link in Medicine." If you or anyone in your family has health issues, or if you're just interested in how to stay healthy and thriving, you'll want to listen.

Dopamine is a naturally occurring “feel-good” chemical that triggers our inner rewards system. It's normally released when we eat delicious food, have sex, and — crucially — when we take addictive drugs. Social media also mimics human connection, prompting dopamine release when we get likes and comments on our posts. Whether it's a day, a week, or a month, a social media detox is highly recommended by psychologists, as it is scientifically proven to enhance mental performance and make you feel happier. On today's episode, Tony Wechsler discusses Dopamine Detox with Jessica Godshall. You may remember Jess from her previous appearances where she discussed topics such as the importance of Self Care. If you check your phone multiple times a day for your social media feed, you'll want to hear this episode.

Momentum is defined as “the strength or force that something has when it is moving.”  Have you ever found yourself sitting there, and suddenly you just stop, and find yourself feeling the urge to move towards something right in front of you, like you have to make this yours? And not only that, but momentum also tells you that you’re making progress. You may only be moving one step at a time, but when you feel totally connected to your desires, momentum can be a force to be reckoned with.
