In today’s episode, I’m taking a look at one of the big reasons that so many people don’t make the changes they want to make. 

That reason is the swirling, mad vortex that our lives seem to become shortly after we get out of bed every morning. 

Does your day get away from you more often than not? Do you find yourself with lots of intentions to do things better, to make even small changes but very little in the way of actual progress toward those changes? If so, you’re probably stuck in the vortex. So how do you get out? 

When it comes to the vortex, there’s only one way out. Lucky for us, the path out is a straightforward one. Listen to this episode, and learn how to escape the swirling, mad vortex.

Today I’m talking about Mental Hygiene. Ever heard of it? 

Most of us give considerable thought into what we put into our mouths, what we put in our bodies, on our bodies. We try to have good dental hygiene and good physical hygiene. So why is it that we’re less selective about what we let into our minds? Why do most people never think about their mental hygiene? 

Learn about mental hygiene and learn a few things you can do to improve yours. Listen now!

So what do you think of the title of today’s episode? A little provocative, maybe. Who am I to ask you if your reason for changing is good enough? Well…let me explain what I mean by good enough, and trust me when I say that what you learn here today is solid gold when it comes to change.

I’ll start with what I don’t mean. When I ask that question, “is your reason for changing is good enough,” it’s not about judgement. Maybe you want to lose weight or get fit so you look better in your clothes – or on a nude beach. Hey, you do you! Maybe you want to start your own business so you can get wildly rich and famous. Also totally up to you. 

So when I say “good enough,” it’s not about judgment. It’s about making sure that your reason for making any change is solid enough to help you actually make that change and solid enough that you can come back to it, look at it, and get inspired to recommit to making that change when the going gets tough and change starts to feel like work. 

I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that change is hard. So if your reason for changing isn’t rock solid, it won’t hold up under pressure. You’ll just look at it and say, “nah, not worth the effort.”

So how do you get your reason for changing, or as I call it, your why to the point that it’s rock solid and will do what a why needs to do? In this episode, I'll tell you. Listen now!

Today I’m going to tell you how I learned how to be a student when I was 26 years old, and how learning how to be a student literally changed my life.

But doesn't everyone know how to be a student? No, and very few of us actually know how to be good students. It's not intuitive. We need to learn how to be good students.

Give this episode a listen and see what I mean!

Today I’m talking about authenticity, being true to yourself, and living with authenticity.

What do I mean when I say authenticity? I mean that you’re genuine, real, living your life in a way that’s true to yourself and who you really are.

Why does living with authenticity matter? Well, according to a 2014 study at Louisiana Tech University, as well as multiple other studies on the subject, we’re happier when we’re living with authenticity. 

So why is that? According to Dr. Stephen Joseph, writing in Psychology Today, there are 3 main reasons. 

First, if you’re living authentically, that means you’re following a path that you’ve chosen, one that feels natural to you. You’re pursuing your passions and developing your competence in things that interest you. You’re creating the life you want to live, a life that fits with who you really are. And all of that makes for a happier you.

Second, if you’re living with authenticity, you value your autonomy and trust your ability to make the right decisions. You’re also able to resist pressure from people trying to impose their wishes on you, and you’re working to reach your goals and aspirations - not trying to fulfill someone else’s dreams for you. Again, happy life stuff. 

And third, your relationships are better. You’re not wasting your time with people who don’t have your best interests at heart or who want you to be something you’re not. Instead, you’re cultivating relationships with people who support you in being true to yourself, and you’re supportive of their living with authenticity too. 

So if you’re living with authenticity, you’re following your path, trusting yourself, not being pressured by others to live in a way that you don’t want to live, and you’re in relationships that support your living authentically.

So what does it take to live authentically? Give this episode a listen to find out!

Today I want to talk about a very often overlooked topic when it comes to making change in our lives, and that is defining your what. Deciding exactly what you want to change is one of the first things we do when we set out to change anything. Deciding on your “what” seems easy enough, and for some people, it is. But that’s not the case for everyone. If you want to set yourself up for change success, it’s important to take the time to make sure that you really know what you want. Because if you don’t know what you want, how will you ever get it?

Like I said, knowing what you want isn’t always easy. If you’ve always been focused on meeting other people’s expectations of you rather than focusing on what you want, figuring out what you want may be a challenge. Likewise, if you’ve bought into other people’s limitations for you or if you’ve set limitations on yourself, you may find it hard to let yourself dream big enough to discover what it is you really, truly want for yourself. 

So how can you figure out what you want? Listen to today's episode to find out!

Today I’m talking about creating space in your life for whatever it is that you want, whatever change you want to make. 

Why might you need to create space? Everything in our lives requires time and energy. Everything we have including our stuff, our relationships, our jobs, and everything we do takes time and energy. If you’re going to change anything, that’s also going to require some time and energy, and if, like most people, you already have areas of your life where you feel stretched, finding the time and energy to put toward making the change you want to make can be a real challenge. Before you undertake making that change, it’s smart to do what you can to minimize any obstacles that might get in your way, and one way to do that is by creating space for change.


Whether it's your physical surroundings, your mind, your emotions, and/or your calendar, you need space to create the life you dream of living. Listen now to learn how to make that space.

Every week on this podcast, I strive to give you something that can help you live the life you want to live. I work to provide something in each episode that can help you change whatever it is in your life that you want to change. I work to help you build your change skills.

Today’s episode is no different, but you may not think of the subject of today’s episode as a change skill. But I assure you that learning how to do this one thing will help you make any change you want to make and just enjoy your life better overall.

Now that’s a lot to ask of one little change, but by the end of this episode, I believe you’ll see exactly how powerful doing this one little thing can be.

I’m sure you’ve seen the viral video of the little girl struggling to buckle herself into her car seat but refusing all offers of assistance from her dad. Every time he’d offer to help her, she’d say, “worry ‘bout yourself.” It’s hilarious and adorable, and it’s also great advice.

Now I don’t mean that you should WORRY about yourself. Maybe "focus on yourself and what you’re doing’’ is a better way of putting it. Or ‘don’t worry about what other people are doing.’ Another good way of putting it.

In other words, stop worrying about what everyone else is doing, and focus your time and energy on creating the life you want to live. Listen to this episode and see what I mean.

Can a planner really help you change your life? This one can. Because this isn't just any planner.

In today’s episode, I’m asking you to think about what you want from life. Why am I asking that? Because so few people actually have any idea what they want from their lives. They’ve never asked themselves that question and instead find themselves living their lives on auto-pilot, just reacting to what happens to them instead of deciding what they want and actively working to create the lives they dream of living. 

 You don’t have to live life on auto-pilot, and you shouldn’t, but for most of us, deciding what we want takes work. And going for it once we’ve decided takes courage. I’ll come back to courage later.

 So what about you? Have you thought about what you want from your life, what kind of life you want to create for yourself? If you have, congratulations! But if you’re living life on auto-pilot, simply reacting instead of proactively creating your life, the first thing you probably need to do is to remind yourself that you have one chance at this thing called life, and whether you make the most of it or not is entirely up to you.

Listen now to learn how you can determine what YOU want from your life.
