  • Episode #15: The Myth of Multitasking

    Most people think that they can handle or master performing many tasks simultaneously, but that simply isn't true. Neuroscience research is clear on this point. The human brain is unable to give 100% focus and attention on two or more things at the same time and attempting to do so makes us less efficient, less productive, and prone to mistakes. Fortunately, there are answers, and this episode provides solutions that will allow you to be more efficient and perform better in all areas of your life.

  • Episode #12: Knowledge Isn't Power?

    It's likely that at some point in your life you've heard the expression: "Knowledge is power." That phrase, that sentiment has been, in many ways, blindly accepted as true, but, in reality, it is a myth, a fallacy. By itself, acquiring knowledge is good, but it fails to account for one fundamental thing: TAKING ACTION. This episode addresses how and why NOT sharing knowledge limits the growth and success for ourselves and other people. Also discussed is why sharing knowledge can lead to better outcomes in our own lives and the lives of others. Thank you for joining the conversation! Contact the Show.

  • Episode #11: For Your (Emotional) Reference...

    We all have emotional "baggage" that can undermine even our most meaningful relationships. This baggage serves as "triggers" or "hot buttons" that disallow us from regulating our words or behaviors in a given moment, which leads to relationship pain. Fortunately, like any other skill, we can improve our emotional intelligence and become better for ourselves so we can become better for others, especially those that we care about the most. And the really cool part is that we take back control provided that we are willing to take responsibility.

  • Episode #10: Hard Stop

    Rather than adding more to our lives, try creating less. If you want more time every day or to move beyond self-limiting beliefs or a quicker solution to any of your problems, add to your life by subtracting from it. Stop engaging in things that are "Time Bandits." Stop comparing yourself to what others have and what you don't. Stop limiting your potential. Stop creating drama or participating in the other people's drama. Doing so gives us a better perspective on how we can engage with life and allows us to participate in those activities that have productive value. Hard stop! Thank you for joining the conversation!

  • Episode #8: Become More Interesting

    We are all interesting because we are uniquely different, but what does it take to become MORE interesting? Curiosity. Curiosity is correlated is correlated with intelligence. It allows us to explore and learn new and different things. It allows us to become more interesting. In fact, in order to be interesting we have to (first) be interested not just in a few, specialized areas but across a broad array of topics. From developing new skills to taking greater interest in other people to becoming more self-expressive, becoming more interesting requires us to proactively learn every day and engage with life.

  • Episode #7: Coping with Worry

    We all worry. It's part of being human. Part of being uniquely different as a human being, compared to all other animals, is our imagination. Our imagination allows us to think critically, creatively, and innovatively. It allows us to solve complex problems and dream big, but it can get away from us at times. The question is whether we can use it to our advantage or have it lead to negative outcomes in our lives. This episode examines how coping with worry can serve us well or serve to undermine what we want for our lives. As always, thank you for joining the conversation!

  • Episode #6: Validation as Addiction

    As children, we need to be externally validated by the adults in our lives...parents, teachers, coaches. The pursuit of external validation throughout our teenage years and into adulthood, however, perpetuates an "addiction" that can lead to various forms of pain, questions one's self-worth, and a life of imbalance. This episode examines how pursuing INTERNAL VALIDATION serves as a counterbalance and how engaging in actions for the sake of doing them well is far more motivating and gratifying. Prepare to shift your mindset! Thank you for joining the conversation!
