  • Ep. 31: Danna Thomas - Happy Teacher Revolution

    It’s no surprise that the discussion around teachers often revolves around insufficient pay for the work that they put in day in and day out. Most of us can agree that we need to do a better job of honoring the teachers and educators in our lives. However, what if there was an even deeper issue at hand? What if there was more we could do than offer a simple pay increase?

     

    This week, I am talking with former kindergarten teacher turned founder of Happy Teacher Revolution, Danna Thomas as we discuss the importance of mental health and wellness of teachers. Danna believes that to solve the teacher burnout and turnover crisis man teachers face, we must come together as a community and revolutionize how we professionally support educators.

    Topics Discussed:

    • Why the best school supply is the investment in yourself
    • How to revolutionize how we professionally support educators
    • Why most teachers often suffer from burnout and turnover
    • How self-care practices for teachers create a ripple effect for students

  • Ep. 57: Why Are We Doing This- Purpose and Movement Mastermind w/ Justin Schenck

    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.

  • Ep. 30: Stop Playing the Victim and Turn The Heat Up

    What label are you allowing yourself to be defined by? Is there something from your past that is holding you back from reaching your highest potential? The truth is, we all have instances in our lives that we can allow ourselves to be defined by our circumstances. However, we don’t have to stay in the place of a victim mentality. In fact, we can use our past to rewrite our future. 

     

    This week, I am sharing the importance of understanding the difference between being a victim and playing a victim. Once we recognize that we can learn from our past circumstances by understanding the lessons behind them, we are then able to turn up the heat in our lives. I am also sharing one of my go-to practices that helps me redefine what it is that I am truly wanting to strive after in life and how it has allowed me to let go of my own self-limiting beliefs.

  • Ep. 29: Jon North Dying at the Zoo into his Bonus Life

    Have you ever had a near-death experience that left you realizing that there’s more to life than just barely getting by? Maybe you’ve been chasing material things that haven’t given you much joy and you want to experience something more. What if you realized that today was the last day of your life, how would you live your life differently?

     

    This week, I am talking with weightlifting champion, founder of The Attitude Nation, and host of the Red Circle podcast, Jon North about what it means to truly lead a life worth living for. After being pronounced dead for 16 minutes, Jon experienced a spiritual encounter with what he believes to be an angel in Heaven. After coming back to life, Jon now recognizes how precious life is and how to become the best husband and father possible. Listen as we dive into what it’s like to trust God in the process and to fully embrace our identity.

  • Ep. 27: Sacrifice is the Path to Success

    Are you the person that you want to be at the end of 2020? Is the way you are currently living your life going to get you to the place you want to be at the end of the next decade? Are the activities that you are currently involved in setting you up for the version of yourself that you want to be at the end of your life? These are the questions that we all need to ask ourselves when it comes to achieving our version of success. 

     

    This week, I am sharing the sacrifices that I made in the past to ensure that I am currently living up to my greatest potential. When we truly sit with the life that we want for ourselves and honestly look at the way we are living our lives, often times we find that we aren’t where we need to be. In order to find our own path to success, we must first lay down the things that are holding us back. 

     

    Topics Discussed:

    • What I gave up in order to live my life to the fullest
    • Why we need to evaluate our current lifestyle choices
    • How to change your daily habits to set yourself up for success
    • Understanding the idea that sacrifice is how we reach our full potential

  • Ep. 26: The Art of Reality: Energy, Vision, and The Perrin Method™ with Dennis Perrin

    What if your life was a canvas, and your beliefs were the brushstrokes? In this episode, Mark sits down with renowned painter and founder of The Perrin Method™, Dennis Perrin. While Dennis is celebrated for his stunning fine art, his true expertise lies in the understanding of energy and the power we all possess to manifest our own reality.

    Dennis and Mark dive deep into the idea that everything—from a finished painting to a successful business—starts as a form of energy. They discuss how self-limiting beliefs act as "dampeners" on our potential and how the simple power of choice can shift your circumstances instantly. If you’ve been struggling to believe in the version of yourself you want to become, Dennis provides a masterclass on how to harness the energy already within you to create a life of beauty and purpose.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Life as Energy: Understanding the metaphysical foundation of how our thoughts and energy dictate our physical results.

    • The Perrin Method™: Applying the discipline of a master artist to the "creation" of your personal and professional reality.

    • Dissolving Self-Limiting Beliefs: How to identify the mental blocks that are inhibiting your growth and stunting your potential.

    • The Power of Choice: Why your current circumstances are not your final destination, and how to "paint" a new future through intentional action.

  • Ep. 50: Justin Schenck - Growth Now Movement

    When was the last time you sucked at something new? Maybe you have dreams of becoming a best selling author one day but you’re afraid of failing so you don’t even try. Maybe you want to sell out an arena for a public speaking event but you let your nerves take over. The truth is, when we allow our fear to overcome our purpose, we cheat ourselves out of stepping into what we were called to do. But what if we shifted the way we look at our failure as a learning curve in the right direction?

     

    This week, I am talking with the founder of Growth Now, LLC and host of Growth Now Movement, Justin Schenck, as we dive into what it means to fully step into your purpose. Justin shares how his childhood upbringing set the stage for taking action and how he shares with others how to utilize their 1% each day. We discuss how our failures ultimately lead to our success and how to tune into our inner callings. Justin challenges us this week to suck at something new in order to gain confidence in ourselves to keep moving forward. 



    Topics Discussed:

    • Why every experience is a lesson to be learned
    • How we can learn from our failures
    • Why it’s selfish when you don't step into your purpose
    • How to step into your calling by sucking at first
    • Why you need to be working a little more towards your dream every single day
    • How to shut out the noise and start moving forward
