Can you actually sit in silence for five minutes without reaching for your phone? If the answer is no, you're giving away your power to everyone and everything except yourself—and it's costing you more than you realize.

This week on The Big and Small Podcast, Jason and Marit dismantle the fluffy meditation mythology and reveal what recentering actually means. This isn't about quieting your mind (spoiler: that's impossible). This is about developing the ability to observe yourself so you can stop being controlled by your internal chaos and start directing your own life.

From a chiropractic clinic conversation to the neuroscience of why your brain is running 150 channels simultaneously, this episode exposes why elite performers treat meditation like the competitive advantage it is—while everyone else stays distracted and mediocre.

What You'll Learn:

05:41 - The clinic conversation that exposed meditation stereotypes
08:07 - What "recentering yourself" actually means (hint: it's not what you think)
10:29 - The structure of consciousness: why you're not really "in the moment"

21:52 - Why CEOs pay $8,000/hour to learn meditation (the performance secret)
24:21 - Silent meditation: why it's the hardest and why that matters
25:59 - Elite parents are removing technology from their kids—here's why
30:37 - The chain of manifestation: goals, habits, emotions, and roles
35:06 - From vision to prophecy: how success becomes inevitable

Why do you turn into an awkward, rude mess the moment someone genuinely appreciates you?

Your nervous system is screaming information you refuse to hear. When someone bakes you a cake and you respond with "should've been cheesecake" - that's not rudeness, that's your emotional overwhelm creating protective barriers against feeling good. You've become so practiced at negative emotions that joy literally short-circuits your system.

This isn't about being ungrateful. This is about your self-hatred being so entrenched that appreciation threatens the very identity you've built on "not being enough." Your emotional buffers aren't protecting you - they're suffocating the parts of you that deserve to feel worthy.

What You'll Learn:

• 00:00 - Feeling emotions vs accessing them
• 04:00 - Geographical positioning inside yourself
• 07:00 - Full emotional range as superpower
• 09:00 - What emotional buffers actually are
• 12:00 - Taking in genuine appreciation
• 15:00 - Growth reflection without shutdown
• 18:00 - Manifestations beyond imagination
• 22:00 - Gratitude vs overwhelming appreciation
• 26:00 - Why emotional overwhelm creates snark
• 29:00 - Cultural understating patterns
• 32:00 - Emotional landmines in relationships

Ready to Stop Sabotaging Your Own Worth?

Listen to the full episode to understand how emotional buffers are keeping you from receiving the appreciation you've actually earned.

Are you living your life or performing roles that were handed to you by others' expectations? Today Jason and Marit expose the uncomfortable truth: you're already in a cult—but it's probably not one you consciously chose.

This isn't about joining something new. It's about recognizing that your current belief system, your automatic behaviors, and your identity were largely programmed by your parents, teachers, and society. The question isn't whether you're in a cult—it's whether you're going to stay in someone else's or finally create your own.

Stop bouncing between 150 different roles every day like tumbleweeds on fire. Your scattered focus is bleeding your decision-making power and leaving you exhausted by choices that don't even matter. It's time to consciously choose the three roles that will define who you become.

What You'll Learn:

• 00:00 - The cult accusation and why mystical experiences aren't religious
• 05:00 - How to know if you're being brainwashed (the life audit test)
• 08:00 - Why you're already brainwashing yourself with unconscious patterns
• 11:00 - The mission evolution: from goals to statements of being
• 13:00 - Why you play 150+ roles daily and it's destroying your focus
• 17:00 - Healer vs chiropractor: how bigger roles eliminate internal conflict
• 22:00 - Power stacking: the dopamine science behind role mastery
• 25:00 - Why life transitions demand conscious role reevaluation
• 28:00 - The athlete's dilemma: when your identity shifts completely
• 33:00 - Why every 3-4 months you need a meeting with yourself

Stop living someone else's programming. The Flow State Continuum Workshop teaches you the nervous system technologies to consciously reprogram your default mode network and choose the roles that will create the life you actually want.

Why Your "Spiritual Awakening" Isn't Changing Your Actual Life?

You've had the insights. You've felt the expansion. You might have even experienced what felt like a breakthrough. But here you are, months later, still caught in the same emotional reactions, still stuck in the same patterns, still living a life that doesn't match what you glimpsed was possible.

The problem isn't that your awakening wasn't real. The problem is that you think awakening is the destination instead of just buying your ticket for the real journey.

Today on The Big and Small Podcast, Jason and Marit expose the brutal truth about why most people's spiritual experiences never translate into lasting change—and introduce the Flow Funnel system that shows you exactly where you're getting stuck.

What You'll Learn:

• 00:00 - Why awakening is just the beginning, not the end goal
• 03:09 - How your default mode network sabotages transformation
• 06:20 - The physics-backed truth about mystical experiences (it's not woo-woo)
• 08:32 - The two questions that turn insights into integration: "What?" and "Why?"
• 13:18 - Name it, frame it, integrate it: The only manifestation formula that works
• 18:05 - Why your conflicts sabotage manifestation before it starts
• 20:06 - The Flow Funnel: Mapping exactly where your consciousness gets stuck
• 22:28 - Why flow disappears the moment you leave your expertise zone
• 27:18 - The real reason you avoid transformation (it's not time or money—it's terror)
• 29:25 - Two women who stopped making excuses and faced their fears
• 34:19 - Role mastery: Why you can only excel at maximum 3 roles
• 36:41 - How small role definitions keep you playing small

The Flow State Continuum Workshop isn't another place to have an experience and forget it. It's where you learn to use the Flow Funnel to diagnose exactly where your consciousness breaks down—and build the systematic practice that turns temporary insights into permanent upgrades.

September focus: Mastering the roles that multiply your results instead of fragmenting your energy.
