Have you ever just wanted to get back to the good ole' days? Back to when things were a little easier, the weight of the world was a little lighter, and when you were a bit more care free?  Us too!   But let's face it.. Sometimes it's your inner child that is holding you back, telling you can't or that you're not good enough.  Becca and Steve talk about all of it in this episode... And there's a surprise!  The band does an acoustic version of "Keep Your Heart Young" by Brandi Carlile.  Check it out!

Discipline takes a lot of.... Discipline!  Becca and Steve talk about it in today's podcast, using Marcus Aurelius' 10 key points to staying disciplined.   The 10 points he came up with in the 1600's of BC are still relevant today!

Finding your "happy place" isn't easy, but it's worth the effort.  It takes persistence.   It takes a lot of work, focus, and fortitude to make it happen.  Becca and Steve talk about what's worked for them, what's worked for others, and some practices that may also work for you.   Listen to this episode to hear some heartfelt stories that hit home on this topic. 

In this episode we have the honor of speaking with Alex Dean, a Marine!  He talks about his journey so far, fitness, mindfulness, nutrition, positivity, and..... UFO's!!

Becca and Steve had a really great conversation in this podcast!  

With all of the craziness in the world, it's sometimes difficult to stay positive.  It's sometimes difficult to not start to despise people that have significantly different points of views than you.   Let's all take a step back and remember that we're all human. We all have some kindness in us.  Look for reasons to love rather than reasons for hate.  It will make the world a better place.   Choose Love!

Resilience:  The capacity to recover quickly from  difficulties; toughness.   In today's episode, we talk about resilience and what it means to us and others and how it affects the mental state and well being of people.  We worked through technical difficulties (four camera shut downs and forgetting to hit record!), so we showed some resilience here today too!  We apologize for this being a day or two later than normal... We know you can handle it, because you're... You Know.... Resilient!

Music is a powerful force that has a broad spectrum of influence over people.   It can be motivating, healing, calming, energizing, relaxing, depressing, intoxicating and many other things.  For many, it is highly emotional.   Steve and Becca talk about the Power of Music in this week's episode!

Remember when Steve was going to do a Facebook Live and tell you about what was going on with his health?  Well, he had to cancel because he ended back up in the hospital with an infection.  Apparently Becca thought it was a publicity stunt  :) ... Regardless, Steve talks about what his health issues have been which eventually required him to have a major surgery. 

Fear is disabling and can stifle productivity, relationships, and frankly, stops you from living your best life.  Becca Frame and I talk about it in our first pod cast, TRIPS with Steve O and Becca.  Check it out to find ways to overcome it!
