Most people I work with are looking for ways to increase their productivity, but we’ve all got the wrong ideas on how to go about it. There are 4 common myths surrounding productivity, when in reality productivity is simple: it’s a balance between doing what is urgent and what is important, and very few things are both.

Imposter syndrome manifests as that constant internal feeling that we don’t know enough, that we lack knowledge and ability, and that we don’t have what it takes to play a certain role or follow a certain profession. Thinking less of ourselves can lead to anxious feelings and self-sabotage, but it’s important to know that imposter syndrome is a very common issue and everyone at some point has gone through something like this before.

In this episode of Take Care Radio, Danny talks about how to deal with imposter syndrome. More important than trying to overcome it, Danny explains, is trying to get familiar with it and trying to understand where is this feeling coming from and what is triggering it. There isn’t a magic pill to get rid of this problem but according to Danny: ‘if you always do your best, it will eventually eliminate the sensation of self-judgment.

“Growth is inherently uncomfortable. You have to let your old self die to become this new self and the side dishes of that are going to be insecurity, they are going to be inadequacy, they are going to be embarrassment.” – Danny Coleman

This episode is coming to you for the first time from Colorado as Kels and I settle into our new home. We didn’t have to move, but there was something more calling to us. Something was pulling us towards change and new challenges, because we need those things if we want to build a life we’re excited about living. Our surroundings shape our behaviors, and trying something new is a part of living in alignment with our values, which in turn fuels wellbeing. Today I want to share with you the 13 sources of wellbeing and how they drive motivation, engagement, and fulfillment. Building a meaningful life isn’t a one-and-done situation—it’s a continuous process. There’s always something new to try that can move us towards purpose, growth, and resilience.

What is “purpose” and how do we find it? We tend to think that a purpose or calling is some magical entity out there in the universe that we spend a lifetime trying to find, but in my opinion, purpose is something we have to create. Purpose isn’t bestowed upon us by the cosmos; it’s a decision we make through our actions, intentions, and the way we show up in the world. With purpose, we can start shifting our perspective on daily tasks can transform the chaos and mundanity of life into something meaningful every single day. When the universe asks you who you want to become, you decide how to answer.

In a world overloaded with distractions, responsibilities, and nonstop noise, many feel trapped in the Cloud of Chaos—a relentless cycle of overwhelm, anxiety, and decision fatigue. In this episode, we explore why our brains struggle to process today’s flood of information, how excessive input makes us more fragile, and why common coping strategies like control, avoidance, and burnout fail to bring relief. Instead, it’s much more powerful to shit your focus to what you and your clients can control, so you can cut through the noise, reclaim clarity, and build resilience.

Communication is at the heart of coaching, but what does it mean to be an effective communicator? In order to communicate well, we have to be able to identify the communication killers we might be bringing to our conversations—which, by the way, we’re all guilty of, even me! Once you identify the way you might be killing communication in your life, you can build up the honesty, safety, and respect necessary to get your ideas across effectively.

Today is Valentine’s Day, and the cynics of the world would tell you that it’s a holiday made up by Hallmark and Russell Stover in order to sell more product. While cynics are right more often than not, they’re also less successful and far more miserable than the optimists—and romantics—of the world. On Valentine’s Day, we can celebrate all kinds of love, including self-love. There’s a lot of superficial advice out there on how to love yourself, but you already know that here at Take Care Radio, we like to take a more evidence-backed and practical look at what it means to love yourself, and how to get there if you don’t already.

Many people I work with have a goal to become more adaptable, and that’s a great goal—adaptability is one of the most psychologically healthy traits we can develop. Those with a flexible view of themselves and their environment are far happier and higher performing. The problem is, most people have a serious misunderstanding of what adaptability really is. Instead of seeking to give up control, they look to gain even more control, and to become better “multitaskers.” The secret to adaptability isn’t multitasking, and it isn’t doing more. Adaptability is about doing less, better.

Coaching is one of those skill sets that are simple, but not easy. If you’re a long time listener to this podcast, you’ll know that facilitating behavior change all comes down to relationships—if you can’t connect with people, you can’t expect them to change when you correct them. If you want to be a leader, you’ll need to practice these two habits.

When we think of people we admire, we often think about the people known for their acts of heroism and courage. Similarly, we even reflect on the times we’ve acted courageously and count them as the proudest moments of our lives. In any case, one of the most lauded and appreciated qualities is courage, and for good reason. Courage is the best catalyst we have for growth—the number one thing that prevents us from reaching our potential is a lack of courage, or fear. But one thing people get wrong about courage is assuming it only exists in large, dramatic moments. Most of the time, courage is a small, daily act. If you want to be successful in this life, all you need to do is be a little less lazy and a little more brave than the next person. There are no bold moments required to be courages. You can show up boldly in 4 different ways starting now.
