The Purpose Chasers

Have you asked yourself what opportunities you're not currently seeing? Is there an opportunity that you're not allowing yourself to embrace? It's no secret that COVID-19 is impacting all of us but that doesn't mean we can't find beauty amongst the chaos. You may feel "stuck '' during this time but don't allow fear to consume your thought life. Start today by shifting your perspective from how this is affecting you negatively to how you can use this as an opportunity to grow.

In this bonus episode, I am sharing my heart with you guys and how I refuse to allow obstacles, such as COVID-19, to stop me from chasing my purpose. This may be a kick-in-the-teeth episode as I get super honest with you about how many of us are in a scarcity mindset with everything going on in the world right now. But Purpose Chasers don't fold up in difficult times. No, we support, encourage, and challenge each other. We press on. We will find a way to get through this, together. Are you one of the ones who will take this as an opportunity to stay in the ring and keep fighting?

Topics Discussed:

• How to avoid a scarcity mindset during Covid-19
• Recognizing opportunity amongst adversity
• Utilizing obstacles to find deeper levels of strength

Embrace Your Past, Win Your Future  -"The difference between being a victim and playing one" - Mark Crandall 

https://www.amazon.com/Embrace-Your-Past-Win-Future-ebook/dp/B07PVWMN79

Is the story you’re currently telling yourself allowing you the access to truly step into transformation? Is there a lie you’re currently believing about yourself that is hindering your growth? Often times, what we really need in order to grow is a mental shift in the right direction. If you are feeling even the slightest bit of resistance towards your goals, you may be allowing your thought life to dictate how you take action.

This week, I am sharing with you the two phrases that have hindered more personal development growth and transformational growth in my life than anything else. In order to have a true transformation, we must first realize that we have the potential to take action. Our mindset and thought life are huge indications of whether or not we show up for ourselves. 

Topics Discussed:

• The two MOST restrictive phrases that hinder personal development
• Why our thought life is potentially blocking our transformational growth
• The relationship between our thought life and the ability to take action
• How to shift our mindset from playing defense to finding a new truth for ourselves
• Understanding how the story we tell ourselves dictates how we show up in the world

Building a community based on the philosophy of giving creates an atmosphere in which everyone receives. 

Most Masterminds are founded and operating from a mindset of scarcity.  Each member’s ego is fighting for praise, striving to look better than other members, and gain recognition from the Mastermind facilitators.

The Purpose & Movement Mastermind is designed for individuals that want to lead from their hearts and reap the rewards of giving. We seek to nurture an environment in which everyone supports, encourages, and challenges each other to grow and excel at and/or find their calling. 

We are excited to #give, not scared to #ask, or #celebrate our community #wins. When one member #wins we all WIN. When we pull each other up we all reach the sky.

Are you living your life, or are you living out someone else’s expectations? Most people don’t actually lack motivation; they lack the permission to be themselves. In this episode, Mark is joined by fitness coach, author, and host of The Million Pound Mission, Adam Schaeuble (aka the "Previously Heavy Dude").

Adam shares his journey from feeling stuck and unfulfilled to radically transforming his body, his business, and his mindset. We dive into the "Identity Trap"—the dangerous habit of trying to fit into a mold that was never meant for you. Adam and Mark discuss how to stop looking for external permission and start looking within to unlock your true potential. If you need a mix of real-talk, humor, and the "audacity" to finally chase your greatest purpose, this conversation is your green light.

Key Takeaways:

• Breaking the Expectation Trap: Why we struggle to chase our purpose when we are too busy trying to please others.

• The "PHD" Journey: How Adam’s transformation from a "Heavy Dude" to a high-performance coach fueled a global mission.

• Radical Self-Audit: Learning how to look within to identify the specific goals that actually ignite your passion.

• The Permission Myth: Why you don't need an invitation or a degree to start living your best life and dreaming big.

How many times do you answer an opportunity with the phrase: “I’ll think about it”? Odds are, for most of us, this is our go-to answer when faced with a decision that we don’t want to make. Even if it’s something we think would be beneficial for us, we often use the phrase “I’ll think about it” as an exit strategy to withhold making an executive decision for as long as possible. Maybe it’s something we don’t want to do but we don’t want to hurt someone else’s feelings. Or maybe it’s something we would like to do but we have a lot of self-limiting beliefs holding us back. 

This week, I am sharing with you my strategy on how to shift our mindset from “thinking” to “doing”. If I’m being honest, I have had to stop myself in the past from using this phrase because I wasn’t quite ready to make a decision. However, with my 3-step process, I will be able to help you define what exactly it is that you want for your life and how to know if you’re on the right track.

Topics Discussed:

• How to stop thinking and start deciding 
• Why we need a defined purpose, why, and vision for our lives
• How “thinking” about something is just procrastination in disguise

What do you want to do with your life? When you look within, what is it that you want to create or do with your life? The thing is, every single one of you already has an answer to what that looks like. We all have dreams of what we want our lives to look like in the future. But most of us don’t actually know what the first step looks like in order to get there. So, how do we get to those places?

This week, I am sharing with you the importance of speaking up for yourself and how you can take action despite what your current circumstances look like. The truth is, our dreams don’t become reality until we are ready to activate our true purpose.

Topics Discussed:

• How we can lean into our true purpose
• Re-discovering our dreams and how to make them a reality
• Why taking action towards our goals shifts our mindset 
• How we can disprove our own insecurities and self-limiting beliefs

Do you currently have someone that you trust with your most audacious goals and dreams? Maybe you’ve been wanting to invest in a mentorship but aren’t sure what direction to take. Or maybe you’ve tried mentorships before but there was no mutual relationship to carry through. What if we were able to rethink how we approached mentorships in a way that allowed us to grow and level up in ways we never thought possible?

This week, I am sharing the power of mentorship and how having my own mentor stretched me to chase after my greatest goals. In this episode, I talk about how I outgrew old mentors and how I set criteria for the best mutual relationship possible. When we are able to be authentic and vulnerable with those we work closely with, we are able to truly step into our greatest purpose.

Topics Discussed:

• The importance of mentorship and how they help us grow
• How mentors stretch us to take actions beyond our self-limiting beliefs 
• How to recognize when a mentorship no longer serves you
• Having a successful mentorship relies on authenticity and vulnerability
• Why we need to have a mutual relationship between us and our mentors

This week, I am sharing why it took me TWO years to launch the Purpose Chasers Academy and how I am pushing past my self-limiting beliefs.
