Shownotes
You can spend years working on yourself, building better habits, and chasing meaningful goals, yet still feel stuck somewhere between who you used to be and who you want to become.
I've experienced this myself. Even when you're making progress, it's easy to feel like you're not where you should be in life. And the harder you push toward the future, the more difficult it can become to appreciate where you are right now.
Today, I'm joined by Marc Champagne and Kelly Noonan Gores, co-authors of You're Invited: A Life-Changing Conversation with History's Greatest Wisdom Keepers. Using AI, they've brought together 14 influential thinkers, including Marcus Aurelius, Carl Jung, Rumi, and Lao Tzu, for an imagined conversation about the challenges of personal growth and becoming who you're meant to be.
We explore why personal development can sometimes leave you feeling like you're never enough, how ambition can turn into anxiety and self-doubt, and what centuries of wisdom can teach us about navigating the uncomfortable space between who we were and who we're becoming.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why You Feel Stuck Between Two Versions of Yourself
- How AI Brought History's Greatest Minds Together
- How to Pursue Growth Without Feeling Inadequate
- The Hidden Downside of Personal Development
- Overcoming Self-Doubt and Anxiety
- What Carl Jung Teaches About Relationships
- When Your Ambitions Become an Obsession
- Why Trust Matters More Than Timing
- The Power of Daily Rituals and Reflection
- You Don't Have to Grow Alone
- Becoming Your Best Self Without Chasing Perfection

660: How to Have More Energy with Dave Asprey

Shownotes
We've all been taught that managing our time is one of the keys to being productive and achieving our goals. But what if we've been focusing on the wrong thing? The reality is, it doesn't matter how much time you have if you're constantly exhausted, struggling to focus, or don't have the physical and mental energy to make the most of it.
Today, I'm joined by my good friend Dave Asprey, the man widely known as the father of biohacking. In his twenties, Dave weighed over 300 pounds and struggled with chronic fatigue, brain fog, and numerous health problems. After spending more than $2.5 million experimenting with ways to optimize his health, he transformed his body and mind, lost 100 pounds, and helped pioneer what has become a global biohacking movement. He's also a NYT bestselling author, entrepreneur, and someone I've known and learned from for over a decade.
In our conversation, Dave challenges the conventional wisdom around productivity and explains why managing your energy is far more important than managing your time. We explore how your daily habits influence your physical and mental performance, why your body has a greater impact on your thoughts and emotions than you might realize, and how making a few intentional changes can help you feel better, accomplish more, and show up as your best self for the people who matter most.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why managing your energy is more important than managing your time.
- How yesterday's choices determine today's energy levels.
- Why you should stop wasting willpower on draining activities.
- How evening light exposure affects your sleep and energy.
- Why meal timing is critical for better sleep.
- How salt and hydration can impact your morning energy.
- The surprising benefits of drinking coffee.
- Why Dave prioritizes protein, minerals, and healthy fats.
- How optimizing your body can improve your mind and emotions.

659: Heal Yourself from Anything with Kaitlin O'Toole
When you're going through an incredibly difficult time in your life, whether it's a health crisis, losing someone you love, or facing challenges that seem impossible to overcome, it can be hard to be grateful …
Shownotes
When you're going through an incredibly difficult time in your life, whether it's a health crisis, losing someone you love, or facing challenges that seem impossible to overcome, it can be hard to be grateful for anything. Sometimes, the struggle becomes so overwhelming that you forget what it feels like to be happy.
Today's guest, Kaitlin O'Toole, is one of the most inspiring people I've ever met. At just 24 years old, after battling multiple autoimmune diseases, Kaitlin was told by doctors that she had only five years to live. Despite trying countless treatments and medications, her health continued to deteriorate until she reached a point where she could no longer remember what it felt like to love her life. But what happened next completely transformed her understanding of what's possible.
After years of struggling with her health, Kaitlin decided to stop allowing her illness to define her life and started focusing on rediscovering joy through meaningful work, faith, and music. Today, she's sharing her remarkable journey and the inspiration behind Lovify, an app she created to help people use music to transform their thoughts, emotions, and mindset.
In our conversation, Kaitlin shares how she went from living in constant fear to embracing the gift of being alive, the extraordinary changes she experienced in her health, and why she believes our thoughts and emotions play such a powerful role in shaping our lives. We also discuss our shared experiences with life-threatening illnesses, the importance of surrounding ourselves with people who believe in us, and how anyone can start creating a more joyful, fulfilling life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- How Kaitlin overcame a devastating five-year prognosis.
- Why fear can keep us trapped in negative thought patterns.
- The turning point that changed Kaitlin's entire life.
- How music can instantly change your emotional state.
- Why your identity influences how you experience life.
- The incredible connection between your mind and body.
- How Kaitlin experienced an extraordinary recovery after ten months.
- Why surrounding yourself with believers can change everything.
- How Lovify helps people transform their thoughts through music.

658: Fix Your Sleep Issues with Dr. Michael Breus
Getting a good night's sleep shouldn't be difficult, and yet, it can feel almost impossible at times. And when you're not sleeping well, it affects everything from your energy and mood to your relationships …
Shownotes
Getting a good night's sleep shouldn't be difficult, and yet, it can feel almost impossible at times. And when you're not sleeping well, it affects everything from your energy and mood to your relationships, productivity, and overall health. I know firsthand how debilitating it can be, and how difficult it is to break the cycle once you're stuck in it.
In 2020, after undergoing 700 hours of chemotherapy, I was sleeping just two to four hours a night for months. My physical and mental health had deteriorated to the point where I was experiencing suicidal thoughts, and I was terrified that my lack of sleep would prevent my body from healing. Thankfully, I reached out to my good friend, Dr. Michael Breus, and the strategies he shared helped turn things around.
Dr. Breus, also known as The Sleep Doctor, is a clinical psychologist and world-renowned sleep expert who has dedicated his career to helping people improve their sleep and quality of life. He's also appeared in The Miracle Morning Movie, and I'm grateful to have him back on the podcast to share his expertise.
In our conversation, Michael explains why the pathway to better sleep is often simpler than we think and how our daily habits can help or hinder our body's natural ability to rest. We also discuss the powerful connection between anxiety and insomnia, what to do when you wake up in the middle of the night and can't fall back asleep, and some surprising misconceptions about sleep supplements, mouth taping, and other popular sleep strategies.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why anxiety is one of the biggest causes of insomnia.
- The five daily habits that dramatically improve sleep quality.
- How your wake-up time determines when you get sleepy.
- Why alcohol ruins the quality of your sleep.
- The 3-2-1 rule for a better night's sleep.
- How acceptance can help you fall asleep faster.
- What to do when you wake up at 3 AM.
- Why mouth taping can actually be dangerous for your health.
- What you should know before taking sleep supplements.

Shownotes
If your doctor said chemotherapy is your only option, would you automatically say yes?
If you or someone you love is facing a cancer diagnosis, or you simply want to do everything you can to prevent it, this conversation may completely change the way you think about healing, health, and the questions you should be asking right now.
Today, I'm joined by my good friend, Chris Wark. Chris was diagnosed with stage three colon cancer at just 26 years old, shortly after getting married. After surgery, his doctors told him chemotherapy was required, but Chris chose a different path. He radically changed his diet, leaned into his faith, and over the last two decades has remained cancer-free. He later turned that experience into Chris Beat Cancer, a platform that has helped millions of people find hope, guidance, and practical support.
In our conversation, we talked about what it really means to take ownership of your health, especially when the stakes couldn't be higher. We explore the mindset shift from being a passive patient to becoming an active participant in your healing, along with the role faith, nutrition, and lifestyle can play when you're facing one of the most difficult moments of your life.
We also dive into the questions many people never think to ask their oncologist, why Chris believes healing begins with believing it's possible, and how forgiveness, gratitude, and reducing stress can impact your health in powerful ways.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why Chris Wark Was A Pivotal Resource For Me
- Life Isn't Fair: Chris Wark's Stage 3 Cancer Diagnosis
- Trusting God & Finding Meaning in Hardship
- A Prayer Is Answered: A Path to Reject Chemo

Shownotes
Do you struggle to keep yourself motivated throughout the year? I certainly do. In fact, I've been struggling with it today. Whether it's perfectionism, fear of the unknown, or simply feeling exhausted, there are plenty of days when we don't feel motivated to take the actions necessary to achieve our goals.
In today's episode, I'm sharing what I call the four cornerstones of motivation: clarity, commitment, discipline, and faith. I'll explain why you shouldn't wait around hoping to feel motivated, and why learning to act your way into feeling can help you generate the motivation you need to move forward.
I'll also share how I use these principles in my own life when I'm struggling with perfectionism or stepping outside my comfort zone, why your feelings can be unreliable indicators of what you should do, and how maintaining unwavering faith can keep you moving forward when your effort hasn't produced the results you hoped for yet.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Motivation is a system you generate, not a feeling you wait for.
- The four cornerstones of motivation: clarity, commitment, discipline, and faith.
- How to "act your way into feeling" when motivation is lacking.
- Real commitment starts when you stop negotiating with yourself.
- How discipline builds confidence by following through on your commitments.
- Why unwavering faith is the belief that consistent actions will lead to a desired outcome.

Shownotes
Sometimes the tools that have always helped you manage stress suddenly stop working, and keeping a positive mindset isn't enough.
When that happens, the answer isn't to push harder or immediately look for the silver lining. Sometimes you need to acknowledge what you're going through and allow yourself time to get the support you need.
Today's guest, Ruby Fremon, knows firsthand what that feels like. Ruby is an author, coach, and someone I've had the privilege of knowing for years. She's also the author of Potent Leadership and has spent the last several years studying Somatic Experiencing. She works with high-achieving leaders who have reached a point where they know they can't keep living and leading the way they have been.
In 2022, Ruby was at the highest point of her career when a traumatic event involving the death of her dog triggered a very unfortunate series of events. Over the next few years, her mental and physical health declined; she stepped away from the business and identity she had spent years building, and eventually reached a point where she was contemplating taking her own life.
In our conversation, Ruby shares what helped her survive the darkest season of her life and explains why healing doesn't always mean immediately finding the positive in what happened. We also talk about how trauma can affect the way you experience life, practical ways to build your capacity to move through difficult emotions, and how losing the person you thought you were can ultimately help you reconnect with who you really are.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- What happens when the regular life tools stop working
- Why healing doesn't always begin by finding the silver lining
- The importance of acknowledging what you're actually going through
- How Somatic Experiencing can help build emotional resilience
- True regulation means increasing your capacity to experience emotions
- How your identity is usually shaped by past experiences
- How A dark night of the soul or season can challenge your sense of self
- Why high achievers need to stop trying to do everything alone
- Finding the right support can change your healing journey

Shownotes
Have you ever had a dream that you gave up on because you tried and it didn't work out right away? One of the biggest mistakes someone can make is assuming that failing once or twice is proof that they're not capable of achieving their goals. In most cases, we simply haven't given ourselves enough time to learn, grow, and become the person capable of making that dream a reality.
Today, I'm joined by Stephanie Fisher, a mother of four and former civil engineer who completely reinvented herself as a full-time content creator. Just over a year ago, Stephanie was waking up at 4:00 AM, raising four young kids, working a full-time engineering job, and trying to build an audience on Instagram. After months of making virtually nothing from her content, her consistency eventually paid off, and she's now on track to earn 3X what she used to make as an engineer.
In our conversation, Stephanie shares how she went from roughly 100 followers to building a successful business and creating more time and financial freedom for her family. We also talk about the pivotal moments that changed the trajectory of her life, the unexpected opportunity that came from losing her engineering job, and how pursuing her dream has allowed her to make a bigger impact while being more present with her family.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- It's never too late to reinvent yourself and pursue a dream.
- Any skill can be learned if you put in the reps.
- Focus on the actions that you can control, not the results.
- Give yourself enough time to become great at something
- How Stephanie's discipline helped adapt her morning routine.
- Consistency matters even when you're not seeing immediate results.
- How to use other people's success to keep yourself motivated.
- The importance of self-care when life feels overwhelming.

Shownotes
One thing I've learned in life is that achieving your biggest goals rarely happens exactly the way you think it will. Things go wrong. Plans fall apart. You get knocked down, and sometimes you have to start all over again. But just because the path changes doesn't mean you have to give up on the vision.
And today's guests have gone through all of that and ultimately built what my wife and I consider sacred ground—a place that has taken our marriage and relationship to a whole new level.
Today, I'm joined by Seth and Tori Bolt, the husband-and-wife team behind Bolt Farm Treehouse. Seth spent 23 years as a founding member of the Grammy-nominated band NEEDTOBREATHE before stepping away to start a family and focus on the business he and Tori built together.
What started as a treehouse Seth built with his dad for their honeymoon eventually became an 11-year entrepreneurial journey filled with incredible highs and several brutal setbacks. Despite all of the challenges, they now have a world-renowned mountaintop destination designed to help couples recharge, reconnect and deepen their love for each other.
In our conversation, Seth and Tori share their incredible journey building Bolt Farm Treehouse, along with the setbacks and sacrifices they faced along the way. We also talk about staying grounded through seasons of uncertainty, creating unbelievable experiences that bring people closer together, and the lessons they've learned from more than a decade of pursuing their dream.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- How Bolt Farm Treehouse helps couples reconnect with each other
- Staying laser focused is essential to achieving your biggest goals
- How to keep going when your original plan falls apart
- Building in public with authenticity helps people connect with your journey
- Be at peace by saying no to opportunities that distract from your mission
- How the Miracle Morning helped Seth and Tori persevere
- Learn from mentors instead of figuring everything out yourself
- How delaying gratification leads to achieving bigger goals
- Finding purpose and opportunity in your greatest adversity

Shownotes
Nobody achieves anything meaningful alone. Yet, we're led to believe that success means being "self-made."
The truth is, the relationships you surround yourself with can either keep you where you are or help bridge the gap between where you are today and the person that you aspire to become.
Today, I'm joined by my good friend Jayson Gaignard, author of Community Made: The Truth About Success and the Relationships That Create It and founder of Mastermind Talks. When Jayson got married, he had only two people at his bachelor party: his brother and brother-in-law. But today, he's created an extraordinary network of entrepreneurs and leaders and just recently sold 20,000 copies of his book on Kickstarter, despite having roughly 2,500 Instagram followers.
In our conversation, Jayson shares three simple questions to help you intentionally decide who belongs in your life and why generosity is the foundation of meaningful relationships.
He also explains why asking someone "How can I help you?" doesn't actually help the person you want to help, how to make people feel genuinely seen, and how you can build relationships with extraordinary people even if you don't have money, status, influence, or an existing network.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why Nobody Is Truly Self-Made
- How To Intentionally Design Your Peer Group
- Three Questions For Choosing The Right Relationships
- Generosity Is The Foundation Of Meaningful Relationships

- Why Gratitude Gains Power Through Witness

What if losing weight is actually making your metabolism worse?
JJ Virgin has spent more than 40 years studying nutrition, fitness, and metabolism. She's a four-time New York Times bestselling author who has helped millions of people lose fat, build muscle, and improve their health.
And she believes we've been taught to think about weight loss completely wrong.
In her new book, The Metabolism Fix, JJ explains why getting lighter doesn't necessarily mean you're getting healthier. Losing the wrong kind of weight can leave you weaker, slow your metabolism, and make it easier to regain fat.
So why does metabolism seem to slow as we get older? Why can dieting repeatedly make the problem worse? Is cardio actually helping you lose body fat? And what are GLP-1 medications really doing to your muscle?
JJ also explains why the number on your scale may be one of the least useful ways to measure your progress, and what you should be paying attention to instead..
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Build Muscle And Lose Fat Fast
- Why Your Metabolism Isn't Broken
- The Scale Can Damage Your Metabolism
- Redefining Weight Loss
- Fasted Vs. Fed Workouts
- The Metabolism Fix Explained
- What JJ Eats In A Day

Shownotes
What would you do if you were told you were diagnosed with cancer and had only 4 to 6 months to live? That's exactly what happened to today's guest.
Two and a half years ago, Mark Allen Ruegg was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer that had already spread to his liver and lymph nodes. His doctors hoped chemotherapy could stabilize the cancer and give him more time, but Mark wasn't willing to accept that as the best possible outcome. He wanted to do everything in his power to beat the odds.
After discovering the documentary Heal, Mark began taking an integrative approach that combined conventional treatment with major changes to his diet, meditation, spirituality, exercise, stress, and mindset. Within months, his scans showed no evidence of cancer, and even his doctor was stunned when he could no longer find the tumor in Mark's pancreas.
But Mark's story didn't end there. Three months ago, a tumor was discovered in his pancreas again. The fears and unknowns came back with a vengeance, sending him into what he describes as a deep, dark place.
In our conversation, Mark shares how that recurrence forced him to confront his fear, return to the fundamentals of his Healing Recipe, and recognize the missing ingredient he needed most: unwavering faith.
We talked about why healing doesn't have to be an either/or choice between conventional and holistic medicine, what it means to surrender without giving up, and how the combination of unwavering faith and extraordinary effort can help you navigate even the most difficult moments of your life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why Mark refused to accept a terminal prognosis
- Combining conventional treatment with an integrative approach
- The lifestyle changes Mark made after his diagnosis
- How Mark's cancer disappeared after his initial diagnosis
- Why Mark believes fear became his greatest challenge
- What happened when Mark's cancer returned
- Unwavering faith and extraordinary effort leads to results

647: Freedom From Suffering with Peter Crone (REPLAY)
What if the limitations you believe about yourself aren't the truth but a prison of your mind's design? Today, we'll explore how our deepest struggles—feelings of fear, not being enough, or childhood trauma—are …
Shownotes
What if the limitations you believe about yourself aren't the truth but a prison of your mind's design? Today, we'll explore how our deepest struggles—feelings of fear, not being enough, or childhood trauma—are rooted not in reality but in subconscious stories we've come to accept as true. Those invisible narratives keep us in a state of suffering and prevent us from reaching our full potential.
Peter Crone, known as The Mind Architect, has helped world-class athletes, executives, and everyday people rewire their subconscious beliefs and unlock "the power of infinite possibility." Having tragically lost both of his parents by the age of 17, Peter learned firsthand the pain of loss and the impact of unconscious trauma. But rather than letting it define him, he used it as a catalyst to understand the inner architecture of the mind, and now helps others break free from their own constraints.
In this conversation, Peter guides me through a live coaching experience and unpacks the nature of emotional suffering, the origins of limiting beliefs, and why healing starts with awareness. If you've ever felt stuck, burdened by the events in your past, or disconnected from your true self, this episode is a masterclass on navigating negative emotions and returning to a place of freedom, love, and possibility.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- How early life trauma wires subconscious beliefs that shape our identity.
- The difference between emotional pain and psychological suffering.
- Why affirmations often don't work—and the language used to dissolve limiting beliefs.
- The 10 "primal prisons" that keep us stuck in patterns of fear, shame, and inadequacy.
- How to access inner freedom through self-inquiry and conscious awareness.
- A powerful mindset shift for men and women around emotional expression and empathy.

Shownotes
Why is it that we'll spend most of our lives believing that happiness, peace, and fulfillment are waiting for us somewhere in the future? Maybe it'll happen after the next promotion, once our finances improve, or when our relationships get better. But what if everything you've been searching for has been not only available to you, but has been inside of you all along?
In today's episode, I'm challenging one of the biggest assumptions we've been conditioned to believe: our circumstances determine our emotional well-being. I'll share why lasting peace isn't something we create by changing our lives, but something we uncover by changing our consciousness.
I'll also explain why resisting reality is the true source of emotional suffering, how accepting reality can create freedom instead of complacency, and why learning to choose your mental and emotional state consciously may be the greatest superpower you can develop.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why everything you're searching for already exists within you.
- The hidden cost of resisting reality instead of accepting it.
- How to consciously choose your mental and emotional state.
- Why inner peace creates better decisions, relationships, and results.
- A simple perspective shift that can transform every moment of your life.

Shownotes
A year ago, I had serious concerns about the impact AI could have on humanity. Today, I use it in nearly every area of my life, from my business to my marriage and even with my kids.

In our conversation, Geoff shares his CRIT framework and explains how it can completely transform the way you use AI. He also shares how he created an AI marriage coach and how his executive assistant used AI to completely redefine her role, earning two promotions and putting herself on a path to becoming Geoff's COO.

Shownotes
The healthcare system was designed to manage symptoms, but too often, it fails to address the root cause of why we're tired, inflamed, overweight, and not feeling our best.

In our conversation, Jay breaks down what peptides are, why GLPs and other peptide therapies are on the cusp of becoming one of the biggest breakthroughs in longevity, but also why they're not magic bullets or shortcuts.

Writing a book is a goal that many people talk about for years, but very few actually follow through. We convince ourselves that we'll get started when life slows down, and before you know it, years have gone by with a great idea just sitting on the back burner.

Shownotes
Implementing a new habit rarely feels life-changing at first. Going for a morning walk and getting a few minutes of sunlight, or visualizing checking something off a to-do list, might sound like activities that barely move the needle.
Yet over time, those small actions often become the difference between feeling stuck and becoming the person you're capable of being. And after reading the first chapter of Jon Gordon's newest book, The Power of Positive Habits, I felt the benefits from that one simple action in the first 5 minutes.
Jon is the bestselling author of 33 books, including The Energy Bus, which has sold more than 3.5 million copies worldwide. But before becoming one of the most respected voices in leadership and personal development, Jon struggled with negativity to the point that his wife told him their marriage wouldn't survive unless he changed. That wake-up call led him on a journey that transformed his mindset, career, and life.
In our conversation, Jon shares the habits that reduce friction and make it easier to follow through, why becoming your own greatest encourager can change everything, and how letting go of the past can unlock the mental blocks that prevent you from becoming the best version of yourself.

What happens after you die? It's a question that has fascinated humanity for thousands of years. Today's guest has an answer that might surprise you.
Dannion Brinkley has been clinically dead multiple times, and what he learned from those experiences led him to one extraordinary conclusion: nobody ever dies.
Dannion is the bestselling author of Saved by the Light and Secrets of the Light, a hospice volunteer with nearly 50 years of service, and one of the world's most well-known near-death experience survivors.
After being struck by lightning in 1975 and clinically dead for 28 minutes, Dannion says he experienced what he calls a panoramic life review that completely transformed the course of his life.
Dannion has devoted his life to helping people face death without fear. He has spent more than 34,000 hours at the bedside of veterans in the VA, provided hospice support to over 2,000 people during their final days, and helped build one of the largest end-of-life volunteer programs for veterans, the Brinkley Center Foundation.
In our conversation, Dannion shares what he has learned from decades spent helping people navigate life's final transition, why he believes no one truly dies, what happens during the panoramic life review, and how we can live in a way that brings more love, service, and meaning to the people around us.

639: How To Become Irreplaceable In The Age Of AI with Jeff Burningham

Shownotes
AI is evolving faster than most of us can comprehend. And for many people, it's creating a very real fear about the future. If machines can outthink us and eventually outwork us, what does that mean for our careers, our purpose, and even our identity?
Perhaps an even better question is: what does it mean to be human in the age of AI?
Today, I'm joined by Jeff Burningham. Jeff is an entrepreneur, investor, and author who has built more than a dozen companies valued at over a billion dollars and recently released his powerful new book, The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI. Unlike most conversations about AI that focus on productivity, efficiency, or making more money, Jeff explores something much deeper: how AI can actually help humanity reconnect with wisdom, presence, empathy, and the qualities that make us uniquely human.
In our conversation, Jeff explains why AI is not just a technological disruption, but a spiritual challenge and a mirror reflecting humanity back to itself. We talk about fear, optimism, consciousness, emotional regulation, and why wisdom—not intelligence—may become the most valuable human trait moving forward.
If you've felt uncertain or overwhelmed about where humanity is headed, this episode will challenge the way you think about both AI and yourself.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why AI Forces Us To Reevaluate Humanity
- Why AI Is A Spiritual Challenge For Humanity
- The Human Qualities AI Can Never Replicate
- Jeff Addresses The Fears People Have About AI
- Fear vs. Optimism In The Age Of AI
- Using AI As A Bridge Back To Human Connection
- How To Use AI Wisely And Mindfully
- The Real Challenge Facing Humanity Right Now
- The Choice Is To Focus On Who You Choose To Be
- Simple Questions That Reveal Your Awareness

Today, I'm joined by two of my favorite people, Mike and Lindsay McCarthy. Mike and Lindsay are the co-authors of The Miracle Morning for Parents and Families and the Miracle Morning for Parents and Families Playbook.
Mike is also the CEO and co-founder of the Gobundance mastermind and co-created Fambundance with his wife, Lindsay. Together, they've spent more than a decade helping families create stronger relationships, healthier communication, and intentional family meetings and habits through events and their family legacy framework.
In our conversation, we talk about the systems and values that have helped them create a deeply connected family culture, how intentional parenting evolves as your kids grow older, and why creating shared experiences and family traditions can shape your children long after they leave home.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Getting Kids Involved In The Miracle Morning
- Teaching Kids About Service Through Daily Habits

The truth is, almost everyone struggles with procrastination. It keeps us stuck in unhealthy patterns, convinces us to wait for the "perfect" time to take action, and gets in the way of what we truly want. Whether it's starting a business, improving your health, writing a book, or having a difficult conversation, procrastination often becomes a roadblock between who we are and who we want to become.
Today, I'm joined by Jon Acuff. Jon is an 11-time NYT bestselling author, a top-100 INC keynote speaker, and has just released his newest book, Procrastination Proof. Jon has spent years studying mindset, perfectionism, and the habits that keep people from taking action to achieve their biggest goals. His ability to simplify complicated ideas into practical frameworks has helped millions of people create meaningful change in their personal and professional lives.
In our conversation, Jon explains why procrastination isn't actually a character flaw or a sign of laziness, but a "solution" we use to avoid discomfort, fear, uncertainty, and criticism. We unpack the mindset patterns that keep people stuck, the hidden reasons why we procrastinate, and why so many people mistakenly believe they "work best under pressure."
Jon also shares a 4-step framework that makes someone "procrastination proof," along with practical ways to overcome perfectionism and finally stop delaying the life you truly want. If you've ever felt stuck between your intentions and your actions, this episode will help you close that gap and start moving forward.

If you love your partner but still feel disconnected, misunderstood, or frustrated by recurring issues in your relationship or marriage, you're not alone. Today's episode is about bridging the gap between the relationship you have and the one you want.
Today, I'm joined by my friends Christine Hassler and Stefanos Sifandos, a married couple and master relationship coaches with over 30 years of combined experience helping people heal relationship wounds, break the cycles that keep showing up in their love lives, and build the kind of relationship most people have stopped believing is possible.
Stefanos is the author of a powerful new book, Tuned In and Turned On, which offers a path to self-healing, deeper connection, and true love that lasts. Christine brings the feminine perspective and spiritual psychology, while Stefanos brings deep work around masculinity, trauma, and what he calls Sacred Union.
In our conversation, we discussed why relationships can be so challenging, even when both people are committed to growth. Christine and Stefanos also explain why attempting to change your partner often creates more disconnection, how unmet childhood needs are projected onto your relationship, and why true repair matters more than avoiding conflict in the first place.

We are living in a world that is more digitally connected than ever, yet there are millions of people who are struggling with loneliness. Whether it's your marriage, friendships, or work, that lack of deep connection can quietly affect your overall health and happiness.
Today, I'm joined by my friend Michael Trainer, who has a new book out called Resonance: The Art and Science of Human Connection. Michael is one of the most fascinating people I've ever met, and his work is centered around helping people create deeper, more aligned relationships in every area of life. From co-creating the Global Citizen Festival, which has helped raise over $40 billion to defeat extreme poverty, to studying human connection across cultures and the neuroscience behind it, Michael brings a unique blend of real-world experience and science-based insights.
In our conversation, we discussed the loneliness epidemic and why so many people feel disconnected despite having greater access to communication than ever before. Michael shares what it means to create "resonance" in your relationships, how the people you surround yourself with directly influence your emotional and physical well-being, and practical ways to become someone who attracts and builds powerful, life-giving connections.
We also explore how to identify the relationships that energize you versus the ones that drain you, and how taking intentional actions can completely transform the quality of your relationships and your life.

Imagine the possibilities if you stopped waiting until you felt ready and just committed to the idea you've had that could make a huge impact on other people's lives.
If you've ever felt the pull to make a bigger difference but told yourself you didn't have enough time, money, or clarity to begin, this conversation will challenge that excuse in the best possible way. It's a powerful reminder that impact doesn't start when everything is figured out. It starts the moment you decide to take action.
Today, I'm joined by my friend Matt King, CEO of GoBundance, who is preparing to ride his bike 2,000 miles from Mexico to Canada over 13 consecutive days! Why is he doing it? His goal is to raise over $1 million that will be given directly to people in overlooked communities along the route. No nonprofit overhead, just real people helping others in ways that will make a huge impact immediately.
In our conversation, Matt shares why he committed to this mission before he knew exactly how it would come together, and how that decision set everything in motion. We talk about how great outcomes are achieved by taking action first, what it means to lead by example for your kids, and why so many of us spend our lives waiting for permission instead of trusting that we'll find the way once we begin.
Above all else, Matt explains how seemingly small acts of kindness can make someone feel seen, loved, and heard, and how anyone can get started if they want to achieve something that's bigger than themselves.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Matt's Unique Approach to Charitable Giving
- Commit to The Outcome & Then Figure It Out
- 150 Miles A Day for 13 Straight Days
- When the Why Is Strong Enough, You'll Persevere
- The Moment Matt Realized He Had To Go First
- How Matt Finds The People He's Going To Help
- Who You Become by Doing Hard Things
- The First Step to Making a Huge Impact

If your doctor said chemotherapy is your only option, would you automatically say yes?
If you or someone you love is facing a cancer diagnosis, or you simply want to do everything you can to prevent it, this conversation may completely change the way you think about healing, health, and the questions you should be asking right now.
Today, I'm joined by my good friend, Chris Wark. Chris was diagnosed with stage three colon cancer at just 26 years old, shortly after getting married. After surgery, his doctors told him chemotherapy was required, but Chris chose a different path. He radically changed his diet, leaned into his faith, and over the last two decades has remained cancer-free. He later turned that experience into Chris Beat Cancer, a platform that has helped millions of people find hope, guidance, and practical support.
In our conversation, we talked about what it really means to take ownership of your health, especially when the stakes couldn't be higher. We explore the mindset shift from being a passive patient to becoming an active participant in your healing, along with the role faith, nutrition, and lifestyle can play when you're facing one of the most difficult moments of your life.
We also dive into the questions many people never think to ask their oncologist, why Chris believes healing begins with believing it's possible, and how forgiveness, gratitude, and reducing stress can impact your health in powerful ways.

Shownotes
Why is it so easy to let negative thoughts creep into our minds, even when we know they're holding us back? For many people, negative self-talk can feel so familiar that it starts to sound like the truth, even when it isn't.
Today, we're exploring how your thoughts shape beliefs, how those beliefs influence your reality, and why making positive changes often begins with the language you use toward yourself.
Lucy Osborne is the global leader of intenSati, a movement and mindfulness practice that combines spoken affirmations with physical exercise, and the voice behind the guided S.A.V.E.R.S. practices in the Miracle Morning app. Over a decade ago, she walked into her first intenSati class believing that if she could just get smaller, her life would finally get better. By the end of the class, she experienced real joy and realized that nothing had changed on the outside, only the input she was feeding her mind.
In our conversation, Lucy explains why the brain works a lot like ChatGPT, finding evidence for whatever you feed it. She explains how a belief is simply a repeated thought and why you don't have to believe a new affirmation before you start saying it. We also talk about how guided S.A.V.E.R.S. can help you interrupt morning routines on autopilot, shift your inner voice, and begin creating more joy, confidence, and intention in your life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Defining intenSati and Its Health Benefits
- Lucy's First Life-Changing intenSati Experience
- A Belief Is Just a Thought Repeated
- Bringing S.A.V.E.R.S. to Life Through Guided Practice
- A Live Demo of intenSati with Lucy
- How Your Words Impact Your Kids
- Getting the Most From the Miracle Morning App
- Where to Connect & Learn More With Lucy
