Are you sabotaging your success with bad sleep?

If you’re burning the candle at both ends, this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast is a wake-up call you don’t wanna miss!

I’m resharing an absolute powerhouse conversation from our private mastermind with Dr. Michael Breus, aka The Sleep Doctor. This guy is a clinical psychologist and sleep medicine expert who’s worked with top-level entrepreneurs, athletes, and high performers to optimize their sleep for maximum productivity, success, and—most importantly—well-being.

In this episode, Dr. Breus breaks down the science behind high-performance sleep, covering everything from radical honesty in relationships to how your health impacts your business success. Spoiler alert: If you’re not prioritizing your sleep, you’re leaving money AND energy on the table!

One of the biggest game-changers we dive into is chronotypes—your body’s natural sleep rhythm. Understanding whether you’re a Lion, Bear, Wolf, or Dolphin can seriously level up your productivity and help you work with your body instead of against it.

Dr. Breus doesn’t just tell us what to do—he also lays down some hard truths about the biggest sleep disruptors.
Alcohol & Caffeine: Think that nightcap is helping you relax? Think again! And don’t even get me started on those late-day coffee runs.
Melatonin Myths: Is it really the magic sleep pill? Dr. Breus breaks it down and shares what works.
Gender & Sleep Differences: Ladies, did you know your sleep needs shift throughout your menstrual cycle? Understanding these changes can be a game-changer for your energy and focus!

Look, I get it—entrepreneurs are wired to push hard and hustle 24/7. But if you’re skimping on sleep, you’re not just wrecking your energy levels—you’re hurting your business, your relationships, and your overall happiness.

This episode is packed with actionable sleep hacks to help you optimize your rest, boost your performance, and wake up ready to dominate the day.

Have you ever met someone who talks a big game but never backs it up?
You know, the kind of person who seems to know everything but does nothing?

Well, today, we're diving into the difference between parrots and practitioners—breaking down procedural versus declarative knowledge—and giving you five tactical ways to shift from being a talker to a doer.

I haven’t always been a practitioner. I used to be a parrot. And today, I want to share how I transitioned and how you can too.

A parrot is someone who repeats things they’ve heard but never actually applies what they’ve learned. You probably know a few of these people. They attend every seminar, read every book, take every course—but never do anything with the knowledge. They throw around business buzzwords but don’t have real-world results to show for it.

Parrots thrive on declarative knowledge. That’s when you know about something but don’t actually do it. Think of someone who’s read 10 books on investing but never put a dollar in the market. Or a “health expert” who preaches fitness but doesn’t look the part

On the other hand, a practitioner is someone who does the work. They apply what they learn, experiment, fail, refine, and keep pushing forward—whether or not anyone is watching. Practitioners build procedural knowledge, meaning they’ve lived through the experience and earned their expertise.

Practitioners say, “I did,” while parrots say, “I should.” And that distinction makes all the difference.

So, how do you make the shift? Here are five tactical steps to go from just talking about success to creating it.

1. Audit Your Knowledge vs. Execution
   Ask yourself: Are you consuming information just to sound smart, or are you applying it? Take stock of what you’ve learned recently and make a plan to put it into action immediately.

2. Adopt the 70/30 Rule
   Spend 70% of your time doing and only 30% of your time learning. Reading books is great, but results come from execution. Like Tony Robbins says (and I’m gonna parrot him here), knowledge isn’t power—execution is.

3. Set Action-Based Goals
   Instead of saying, “I want to start a business,” say, “I will create my first offer and get five paying customers by the end of the month.” Make it specific, measurable, and time-bound.

4. Surround Yourself with Practitioners
   You become who you hang out with. If your circle is full of people who talk but never do, it’s time to level up your network. That’s why we have The Happy Hustle Club—a mastermind of high-level entrepreneurs who are actually taking action.

5. Apply the 48-Hour Rule(Game-Changer!)
   Whenever you learn something valuable, apply it within 48 hours. This prevents you from becoming a knowledge hoarder and forces you to take action.

The world is full of parrots, but success belongs to the practitioners. If you want to truly Happy Hustle your dream life, you need to do the work. Audit your execution, set action-based goals, surround yourself with the right people, and most importantly—apply what you learn.

So, are you a parrot or a practitioner?

Do you feel like you’re spinning your wheels but not getting anywhere? Like something’s blocking you from reaching your full potential? Well, my friend, chances are you’re dealing with one (or more) of these five dream killers. And let me tell you, if you don’t know the last one, you’re probably doing it—without even realizing it—and it’s keeping you from where you truly want to go.

In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I’m breaking down the five biggest dream killers and, more importantly, how to overcome them so you can Happy Hustle your way to a life you truly love—one filled with passion, purpose, and positive impact. And hey, if you’re not careful, these dream killers will sneak up on you. So let’s dive in!

1. Doubt – The Silent Dream Killer
   Doubt is that little voice in your head whispering, You’re not good enough. You can’t do this. Who do you think you are? Sound familiar? Yeah, doubt is sneaky like that. It stops you before you even start, and if you let it, it’ll keep you stuck forever.
   Solution: Confidence, my friend. And confidence comes from repetition and results. Start stacking small wins every single day. Say your I AM mantras (I do this daily). Remind yourself of your past successes. Speak positivity into your subconscious and cut that doubt out of your life for good.

2. Delusion – The False Story You Keep Telling Yourself
   Delusion is believing your own excuses. It’s blaming others, thinking the world is out to get you, and refusing to take ownership of your own results. And the danger? It keeps you in a victim mindset instead of a victor mindset.
   Solution: Radical responsibility. Audit your excuses. Ask yourself, Is this belief empowering me or holding me back? Then replace limiting beliefs with empowering truths. Own your actions. Own your results. Own your future.

3. Delay – The Procrastination Trap
   “I’ll start tomorrow.” “I’ll launch my business next year.” “I’ll get healthy when work slows down.” Sound familiar? Delay is a dream killer, and too many people take their dreams to the grave because they keep waiting for the perfect moment.
   Solution: The 5-Second Rule. Countdown—5, 4, 3, 2, 1—and take action before your brain talks you out of it. Good and done is better than perfect and never finished. Just get started.

4. Discouragement – Letting Setbacks Stop You
   Setbacks, failures, criticism—yeah, they suck. But the biggest mistake you can make? Letting them discourage you to the point of quitting. Most people give up right before their breakthrough. Don’t let that be you.
   Solution: Shift your mindset. Failures aren’t setbacks; they’re setups for something greater. Every challenge is happening for you, not to you. Failure is just fertilizer for future growth. Keep pushing forward.

5. Distraction – The Ultimate Dream Killer
   And here it is—the biggest dream killer in today’s world: distraction. Death-scrolling on Instagram, binge-watching Netflix, playing video games for hours—these things suck your time and energy away from what truly matters.
   Solution: Create focus zones. Block out 90 minutes of deep, uninterrupted work. Track your time for 24 hours and see where your distractions are creeping in. If it’s not moving you closer to your goals, it’s stealing from your dreams.

   These five dream killers—doubt, delusion, delay, discouragement, and distraction—are what’s keeping most people stuck. But now that you know them, you have the power to overcome them. Start taking action today, and Happy Hustle your way to a life of freedom, fulfillment, and impact!

We also dive into actionable steps you can take to cultivate joy daily. From morning gratitude practices to embracing the simple wins, Amberly shows us that joy isn’t something we find—it’s something we create. And let’s be real, who doesn’t want to wake up feeling more energized and fulfilled?

Amberly also opens up about the highs and lows of launching her book and creating a book club. If you’ve ever thought about sharing your story with the world, you’ll love her insights on why building a supportive community around your work is crucial.

How do you spend your money? Are you buying things that elevate your life, or are you stuck in a cycle of spending that keeps you broke? The truth is, your money mindset determines your financial future. And today, I’m breaking down the four money mindsets that separate the wealthy from the broke.

And let me tell ya, the fourth one might just surprise you. Stick around because this simple mindset shift can take you from scarcity to abundance in no time!

First off, I gotta give credit where credit is due. My main man, Alex Hormozi, first shared this concept, and I’m expanding on it with my own insights because it really hits home.

The Four Money Mindsets That Shape Your Financial Future

1. Poor People Buy Stuff
   Poor people stay broke because they spend their money on things that don’t add long-term value—like the latest iPhone, flashy cars, or expensive clothes just to impress people they don’t even like! It’s not about how much money they make—it’s about what they do with it.

I know people who make six figures a year but are still stuck because they finance luxury items instead of investing in their future. If your spending isn’t improving your life in the long run, you’re going to stay in the same spot.

1. Lazy People Buy Distractions
   Netflix binges, endless video games, and mindless scrolling—sound familiar? These distractions steal your attention and keep you from creating your dream life. Lazy people trade their time for temporary pleasure and then wonder why they’re not progressing.
   Look, I get it. I watch shows with my wife, and I scroll through the ‘gram. But the difference? I set time limits. I keep my social media use to one hour a day, and I’m more of a producer than a consumer. So ask yourself—are you using your time wisely, or are you buying distractions?

2. Ambitious People Buy Skills
   Let me say it louder for the people in the back: SKILLS PAY THE BILLS. If you want to make more money, invest in skills. Coaching, courses, books, experiences—these are the things that actually increase your value.

If you look at the top entrepreneurs, they didn’t get rich by being good at everything. They became the best at one or two things and then expanded. One skill I highly recommend? Sales. Mastering influence will change your entire financial trajectory—trust me on that.

1. Rich People Buy Time
   This is the big one. Wealthy people value their time above all else. They don’t try to do everything themselves—they delegate, automate, and eliminate unnecessary tasks. That’s why they have assistants, cleaners, private jets—anything that saves time and increases efficiency.

If you’re doing everything yourself, you’re stuck in a scarcity mindset. Start thinking like a CEO: What’s the highest and best use of your time? Invest in delegation and free yourself up to focus on what truly matters.

Now that you know the four money mindsets, how do you actually shift from scarcity to abundance? Here are three actionable steps:

1. Increase Awareness
   Track your finances. Know where your money is going. What you measure, you can manage.

2. Reallocate Your Spending
   Take 5-10% of your income and stop buying stuff. Instead, invest in skills or delegation—hire an assistant, take an AI course, or learn a high-income skill.

3. Buy Back Your Time
   Think like a CEO. Ask yourself daily: What’s the best use of my time? Prioritize the tasks that create the biggest impact and delegate the rest.

Episode Sponsor: Magnesium Breakthrough from BiOptimizers (https://bioptimizers.com/happy)

If you've been on a restricted diet lately or maybe even taken some meds to shed those pounds for the summer, I gotta warn ya—be careful! You might have unknowingly created a nutrient deficiency that could not only mess with your health but also jeopardize those weight loss goals.

Did you know that over 75% of Americans are already deficient in magnesium? Yeah, it's wild! Magnesium is this powerhouse mineral that's involved in over 600 biological reactions in your body. It helps with everything from sleep to stress management to hormone balance—all key players in keeping your weight on track.

And if you’re still on those meds, you might be dealing with some side effects like sleepless nights, digestive issues, or irritability, which can totally throw off your commitment to your goals. Whether you’re taking meds or not, setting up healthy habits is crucial to maintaining your weight over time. One of the best things you can do? Make sure you're getting all the magnesium your body needs.

Don’t let a magnesium deficiency derail your progress! Give Magnesium Breakthrough by BIOptimizers a shot. Unlike other supplements, this one’s got all 7 forms of magnesium that your body can actually absorb, so you get the full spectrum of benefits.

This approach will help you crush your goals and maintain a healthy weight while keeping your overall health in check.

Ever feel like you’re doing all the right things but still not getting the results you want? Like you’re grinding hard, pushing forward, yet something deep inside keeps pulling you back? Well, my friend, it might not be about working harder—it could be about rewiring your subconscious identity. And that’s exactly what we’re diving into in this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast with the legendary Jim Fortin!

Jim is a world-renowned expert in personal transformation, subconscious identity shifts, and neuro persuasion. He’s worked with top entrepreneurs, celebrities, and even professional athletes, helping them break free from limiting beliefs and step into their most powerful selves. Oh, and did I mention he’s been personally mentored by a shaman for decades? Yeah, this guy knows a thing or two about transformation on a deep level.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ Why your subconscious identity controls 95% of your success (and how to reprogram it)
✅ The real power of self-talk and how it shapes your reality
✅ How to use neuro persuasion to ethically influence and grow your business
✅ The surprising link between shamanic wisdom and high-performance
✅ Why most people stay stuck—and how you can break free TODAY

One of my favorite moments in this conversation is when Jim breaks down his ‘Unstuck Challenge’, a game-changing approach to shifting your mindset, identity, and actions. If you’ve been feeling like you’re spinning your wheels and not making progress, this is the wake-up call you need!

Jim isn’t just another mindset coach—he gets into the science of subconscious transformation and the psychology behind influence. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, leader, or just someone looking to level up, this episode is packed with insights that can literally change the way you think, act, and create success.

What if I told you that you could crush it in life and business without burning out? That you could make money, create impact, and enjoy the journey—without sacrificing your health, relationships, or happiness?

Yeah, I know. Sounds almost too good to be true. But trust me, it’s not. It all comes down to balance. In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I’m breaking down the 10 Alignments of a Happy Hustler—the S.O.U.L.M.A.P.P.I.N. system—so you can assess where you’re thriving and where you need to level up.

SOUL MAPPIN’ is your soul’s map to the blissfully balanced promised land. It’s a framework I developed to systematically harmonize ambition and well-being so you can create your dream reality without sacrificing what truly matters.

Here’s what it stands for:
S – Selfless Service
O – Optimized Health
U – Unplug Digitally
L – Loving Relationships
M – Mindful Spirituality
A – Abundance Financially
P – Personal Development
P – Passionate Hobbies
I – Impactful Work
N – Nature Connection

Now, I want you to rate yourself in each of these areas on a scale of 1 to 5. Be real with yourself. No sugarcoating. 5 is like an A you're crushing it. You're happy hustlin 4 is like a B You're satisfied making progress 3 is like a C. You're okay and getting by 2 is like a D You're slacking and need to step it up and then 1 is like an F You're significantly lacking This will give you clarity on what’s working and what needs some serious attention.

Let’s Break It Down

1. Selfless Service – Are You Giving Back?
   It’s all about making a difference. When was the last time you gave your time, money, or expertise to help someone else? Use the GIFT acronym: Give, Insight, Finances, Time—and start small.
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Do one random act of kindness today. Buy someone’s coffee, give a genuine compliment, or donate your time to help a friend in need.

2. Optimized Health – Are You Feeling Your Best?
   Without health, nothing else matters. Your physical and mental well-being should be a top priority. Use the ENERGY system: Exercise, Nutrition, Environment, Rest, Gallon of Water, Youthfulness.
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Move your body for at least 30 minutes, drink quality water, and get solid sleep!

3. Unplug Digitally – Are You In Control of Your Devices or Are They Controlling You?
   Phones, social media, endless notifications—they can suck your soul if you’re not careful. Use the BREAK method: Barriers, Recharge, Eliminate, Airplane Mode, Keep your word.
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Spend the first 30 minutes and last 30 minutes of your day device-free.

4. Loving Relationships – Are You Nurturing the Right People?
   Life is about connection. Use the LOVER framework: Listen, Observe, Voice, Empathize, Repair—especially with your closest people.
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Send a heartfelt message to someone you appreciate.

5. Mindful Spirituality – Are You Centered?
   No matter your beliefs, having faith and connecting to something greater is powerful. Try the SITS method: Sit in the Stillness.
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Meditate for 10 minutes, write down five things you’re grateful for, and pray or reflect.

6. Abundance Financially – Are You Managing Your Money Wisely?
   Money isn’t everything, but it’s a tool for freedom. Are you spending, saving, and investing with intention?
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Track your expenses for the day. Awareness is the first step to financial growth.

7. Personal Development – Are You Growing?
   Are you learning, evolving, and becoming the best version of yourself?
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Read 10 pages of a book or listen to one educational podcast today.

8. Passionate Hobbies – Are You Having Fun?
   All work and no play makes for a miserable life. When was the last time you did something just because you love it?
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Spend at least 20 minutes on a hobby you love.

9. Impactful Work – Are You Creating Value?
   Is your work aligned with your purpose? Do you wake up excited for what you do?
   ➡️ Daily Action Task: Identify one way to bring more purpose into your work today.

10. Nature Connection – Are You Getting Outside?
    Fresh air, sunshine, and time in nature are essential for a balanced life.
    ➡️ Daily Action Task: Spend at least 15 minutes outside today—walk, hike, breathe in that fresh air!

Now that you’ve rated yourself in each area, where do you need to improve? If you’re scoring low in any category, don’t stress. Awareness is step one. Step two? Take daily action to improve.

Remember, Happy Hustlin isn’t about working less—it’s about working smarter while prioritizing what truly matters. So use this system, track your progress, and start creating that blissfully balanced life today!
