  • 042: How to Achieve a Soul/Life Balance Instead of a Work/Life Balance with Sam Kabert

    "I believe that the reason why we're facing such a mental health crisis, even before the pandemic, is because we've severed the connection to something greater than just this human experience."

    Sam Kabert

    In this episode of The Modern Man, I welcome Sam Kabert, a serial entrepreneur turned spiritual seeker who's helping others embark on their path of self-discovery. Sam is an Integration Coach, author, speaker, podcaster, and Creator of SOUL/Life Balance, the practice of putting yourself first, prioritizing your mental health, and showing up for your life and work with more energy. Essentially, it's about creating a soul/life balance instead of a work/life balance.

    When you reach a certain level of success, you start to seek something more, something greater. You might even start to feel sad, lost, or depressed. Do you resonate? Many times, we chase success and when we reach it, we thought we'd feel better or different in some way… but we often don't. The good news is, you don't have to feel that way forever.

    You have a powerful opportunity in front of you, one that requires you to go deeper within yourself to find out what you truly want out of life – what makes your soul happy. Will you take it? That's up to you.

    If you're a workaholic or you feel unfulfilled in your career and you want to figure out what lights your soul on fire, you're going to gain a lot from this conversation with Sam!

    Key Takeaways / What You'll Learn:

    [01:03] About Sam Kabert's journey into spirituality and SOUL/Life Balance.

    [04:57] If you have success and you're still unsatisfied, what's missing?

    [14:39] How to prioritize yourself and your soul's needs.

    [21:37] Hesitant to dive into your spirituality? Listen in as Sam shares how he started his spiritual journey after a numbing depression.

    [30:15] What is a soul contract and how can we use them to make sense of our life?

    [32:50] How to feed your soul and be spiritual without losing touch with your humanness.

  • 037: How to Reach Peak Performance & Let Fear Be Your Compass (Even With a Learning Disability) with Christopher Dedeyan

    Are you letting fear hold you back from reaching your greatest goals? Let's talk about how to reverse that. In this episode of The Modern Man, I welcome Christopher Dedeyan, a peak performance coach, professional speaker, and advocate for learning disabilities. Chris specializes in helping top tier individuals and entrepreneurs hit peak performance in their personal and professional lives.

    Chris is proof that people with learning disabilities or difficult upbringings are more than capable of creating a successful career for themselves. It takes resiliency and the willingness to uncover and utilize your biggest strengths.

    Listen in as Chris shares his story with Dyslexia and tells us his secrets for confidently pursuing anything you want to succeed in. He describes the importance of habits and rituals in being your best self and how to use fear as a compass for your life.

    Even if everyone thinks you're crazy or incapable of achieving your goals and dreams… if you step out of your comfort zone and build resilience within yourself, you CAN do it.

    "Now, I can very confidently say the main reason why I succeeded is because I am dyslexic and I learned to be relentless." – Christopher Dedeyan
