“I have to change everything I eat at once.”
“I’ve tried before and it didn’t work. It’s not possible to lose weight.”
“I’ll start after the holidays…”
Do any of these thoughts sound familiar? Whatever we’ve thought about food, one thing is for sure, we are not alone in those thoughts! Another thing that is also for sure is, there is a way out from underneath our thoughts and feelings around food that don’t serve us!
We often know what to do in terms of what to eat. For example, eat our fruits and vegetables, watch the amount of sugar we eat, and don’t eat too much. However, it’s creating the right habits that work for us to actually eat this way that stand in our way of doing so. Join us and Nutritionist Kiki Magnuson as we dive into creating the intelligent eating habits that do allow us to eat healthily and have our donut too!

Being at the top of our game isn’t just about peaking physically, it’s also about peaking mentally. In fact, it’s the mentality that’s the more important of the two.
How hard we push ourselves in athletics, at work, and other areas of our lives comes down to the thoughts we have around what we are doing. Our brains register the effort we are outputting and tell us it’s too easy, just right, or too hard. It’s this – our mentality – that reaches its limit first. However, if leveraged properly, our mentality can work for us. It can uplift us and take us to new heights, drive us to get better, and bring about the success we seek.
Join us and former professional soccer player Megan Richey as we dive into the power of mindset and how it led her to a career in professional sport, as well as, how it helps the young athletes of today. If you want a competitive edge in your next competition or at work, this episode is for you!

“Suffer in silence!”
Have you ever heard this phrase, been told it, or even without prompt keep to yourself and don’t express the struggles you have? If you do, you are NOT alone!!!
We face very real trauma in our lives today and being told to suffer in silence makes it that much worse! We often feel there is no release, no way out, and no one can help us. Today, we share, there is a way!
Our guest, Amber Kivett, founder of KIPRS – Kivett Instant Pain Relief System – shares her story with us through heartache, pain, and resilience. This truly is an episode you don’t want to miss!
If you are suffering, in any way, this episode WILL help you!

Being a parent is not easy! Not only do we face the challenges of raising our children, we also face the expectations and pressures of society for doing so. What we see on social media is often disconnected from what we experience “IRL” – in real life – which makes us feel alone, ashamed, and even that we are messing up as parents.
We’re here to tell you, you’re not alone!!! You are not alone in the challenges you face as a parent. You are not alone in the desires you want for kids to not struggle in life. And, you’re not alone in feeling lost as a parent! There are parents just like you out there, facing the same challenges as you, and, there is way to overcome them and embrace what is truly within our control!
Join us as we get H.O.T. (honest, open, and transparent) with Tanya Perhsin, author of “MOM”ing: It’s Not All Sparkles and Tutus.

Do you feel disconnected from those you work with and a means to an end? If you do, you’re not alone! As a whole, work across the world has fundamentally reverted back to being transactional. We are overloaded, have ever changing priorities, and don’t have the time! Because of it, when we interact with others, we want to get in, get out, and be done with it. We’ve limited how we communicate and interact with others to the bare-bones necessities to keep the needle moving forward.
The simple trick that gets us over all of this is: making work personable again! Join us as we talk through easy ways to make work personable again and reclaim the connection we crave.

The ability to forgive others can be difficult. When someone does or says something, who we naturally are dictates our reaction to it. It may be a serving reaction and it may be a non-serving reaction, either way, that’s okay! It’s who you are and is to be embraced!
If our natural reaction is non-serving, we can either let it consume us or counteract it and choose how we want to respond. Responding is different than reacting. It is our cognitive ability to understand and embrace how we react that allows us to then determine how we want to respond! We don’t have to let our rage and anger consume us, we can embrace a serving response, forgive others, and behave how we want!
Join us as we dive more deeply into understanding the differences between reacting and responding to forgive others.
-
Challenges are a part of life. They can overwhelm us, cause us heartache and pain, or, they can be powerful opportunities that lead us to achieving what we truly want. The choice is ours to make!
When we are challenged and face adversity, we have the ability to choose to be resilient – to say “No, not today!” We are, and will always be, in control of our mentality. The choice to focus on what we want to achieve, the desires we have, the outcomes we seek is ours! And, it is what helps us rise above and conquer the challenge we are facing!
Each and everyone of us has this ability to focus on what we want, to say “not today,” and to annihilate the barriers we face to achieve what we want! Join us as we dive into the keys to harnessing our resilience in the face of adversity. -
Have you ever walked away from a conversation, meeting, or even from watching a sporting event thinking: “That didn’t go how I thought it would”?
As human beings, we tend to make assumptions about how things are going to go. For example, we may presume someone will react a certain way to what we have to say to them. The danger of this is, we can actually create self-fulfilling prophecies that blind us, fueling the “fire” and prevents us from interpreting what the other individual actually meant.
If you’ve ever ripped into someone only to have them come back with: “Hang on! That’s not what I am saying at all!” then, you know what we mean. When we presume we know what someone is thinking, what they are going to say, or what they intend, we have a habit of interpreting their reactions and what they say through our lens versus being truly open to what they are actually conveying to us. This leads to create self-fulfilling prophecies.
All it takes to alleviate this is a slight shift in the way we approach these conversations. We can prepare for the possible outcomes of how a conversation may go without forcing our narrative to be met by remaining open to the possibilities; rather than, forcing our narrative to be met through assumptions. Join us as we dive into how to create this subtle, yet powerful, shift. -
Have you ever done something you weren't happy about and beat yourself up for it happening? If you have, you're not alone at all!
As human beings, we put expectations upon ourselves that can cause us to get trapped in a downward spiral that doesn't serve us and keeps us down. We tend to expect that we won't be a certain way and are often left wanting when it turns out that we are that way, which then causes us to be upset because it happened AND because we feel we shouldn't be that way. This creates a compounding effect upon us that stems from our expectations of ourselves.
On the other hand, if we turn inwards and embrace who we are, accepting all parts of us (the serving and the non-serving), we naturally alleviate this non-serving compounding effect. Join us as we explore how to shift our expectations to be serving and, as a nice bonus side-effect, alleviate stress, tension, and pressure we put on ourselves.

Have you ever wondered: "What makes a leader?" Or perhaps, "How do I become a leader?"
If you have, you're not alone AND, we have you covered!
John Maxwell's book, "5 Levels of Leadership," is a great foundational book explaining the transformative journey a leader can go on to create true impact for those they lead, their organization, and themselves. Join us as we walk through each of the 5 levels of leadership and the ways in which you can naturally progress through each of them to achieve the results you seek.
HINT: It's not about assigning work and making sure people follow-through. That's purely transactional. Rather, it's about being able to truly ignite a spark within others that drives them to be a part of something they value and feel a part of.

It's a new year! And, with a new year comes new year resolutions. This year, however, we are proposing a slightly different take for you that can help you actually keep the resolutions you make.
If you find that your new year resolutions tend to go by the wayside by the time January 31st rolls around, this episode is a must listen which WILL keep you on point!
Instead of setting resolutions, try setting intentions. Intentions are different than resolutions as they get to the true heart of what it is we deeply desire - the value, meaning, and importance achieving something has for us. The bonus this has for us is that it naturally drives us towards our goal and keeps us motivated along the way, helping us to overcome the bumps in the road that may otherwise cause us to fall short of our resolutions.
In addition, once we know our intentions for the year, we can back out a step-by-step plan that will create our success through achievable actions that do not overwhelm us!
Take a listen! We promise you won't be disappointed and you WILL be setup for success to achieve your goals.

One of the hardest things for us to do is look inward. We often place blame upon others or feel things are happening to us instead of seeing what is within our control. What we expect out of life is no different! The expectations we have of ourselves can either serve us and lead us to where we want to go or not serve us and hold us back from doing so. The choice, believe it or not, is up to us!
Join us as we open up the conversation about truly being honest with ourselves to allow our expectations to serve us in the best way possible AND explore the conditions we impose on ourselves that can stand in our way.
As we like to say, "Practice the life you want." We can be who we want to be in life, free of the conditionality we impose on ourselves.

This is an episode you don't want to miss!

Do you shy away from the camera or turn away when someone puts you in the spotlight? If you do, you're not alone!
Feeling uncomfortable in the lime light is a natural human reaction that we all have! However, with practice, we are capable of embracing what DOES cause us to be comfortable when we are the center of attention AND allows us to be at our best.

Each and every one of us IS capable of not only being confident, but also, performing at our best. This episode truly dives deeply into key elements that will leave you with a clear path to success.

Have you ever felt like you can't go on and you want to throw in the towel? If so, you're not alone!
In challenging times, we tend to give more power to the little voice in the back of our heads that says:
"Stop!"
"Give up!"
"You can't go on!"
However, we CAN overcome that voice and embrace what WILL get us across the finish line!
Join us as we dive deeply into a day where practically everything did not go Steve's way as he was facing down completing 140.6 miles at Ironman Lake Placid. In this episode, we explore how we CAN harness our resilience to literally keep putting one foot in front of the other.
Each of our finish lines ARE in sight, whether you cross it or not IS up to you!

Are you struggling to create the success you seek in life?
If you are, you're not alone!
Many people struggle to achieve what they want; however, each and every one of us IS capable of getting what we want. The key to it is harnessing our resilient mind.
In this episode, we reflect back upon how to create success through resilience, specifically: effective strategies to manage ourselves and needs; managing our time, health, mindset, and communication skills; and how to practice these skills daily.

Have you ever felt down and needed someone to talk to or simply just needed someone to understand what you're experiencing?
If so, you're not alone!
As human beings, we need to feel connected to others and we want them to be empathetic and compassionate towards us. We don't want to be surrounded by people who are not, give us a hard time, or put us down.
Empathy and compassion are two fundamental human characteristics that not only apply to how we want others to interact with us, they also apply to how we want to interact with others AND ourselves.
This episode is truly a real, raw look into the connection Andrew and I share, as well as the empathy and compassion we have for each other. This is a one-of-a-kind episode you won't find anywhere else!
Come on in and take a peek behind the veil of two very personal experiences we've had...we welcome you to join us in reliving them!

Emotional intelligence is not just a "buzz" word, it's a necessity.
Being aware of our emotions, how they influence us, and how they come across to others is just the tip of the spear. Our emotional intelligence goes beyond us and can greatly impact those around us. It even extends to how we interpret and deal with the emotions of others.
Join us as we dive deeply into what emotional intelligence is and how we can best harness it to have the impact we want for ourselves and those around us.
This is a must listen for anyone who wants to create stronger relationships in their lives.
