561: How to Love ALL People (Especially Those You Disagree With)

Last week, I shared a quote from Mark Groves on Instagram about reconciling our differences, especially in the context of voting and politics. Unsurprisingly, the responses varied—some resonated deeply, while others disagreed. And that's okay because it brought to light a truth I've been reflecting on all week: Love and understanding aren't conditional. They're not reserved for those who agree with us or share our worldview. Every single person is worthy of compassion, regardless of their backgr...

560: Moving Forward After the Election

For those of you who follow me on Instagram, you may have seen the post I made on the morning of the US Election last week, long before the results were known. That post was about finding a positive way to move forward , no matter who won. Not surprisingly, it generated many comments and reactions, some positive and some negative, which is to be expected with any presidential election—especially this one. Now that the election is over, and whether you are celebrating or mourning the results, I w...

557: A Tribute to John Ruhlin - The Power of Thoughtful Gifting

554: How Can We Talk WITH God?

Do you ever talk with God (or whatever you call that voice of wisdom that seems to know better than you do)? In other words, rather than praying or meditating and hoping something magical happens, do you ever pray or meditate to set an intention and then quiet your mind to receive valuable clarity, wisdom, and guidance specific to your needs? I usually do this first thing in the morning (during my SAVERS) and right before bed, and when I do, I consistently receive what I refer to as “downloads.”...

548: Reflecting on Religion & Spirituality

Religion can be a very polarizing and even taboo topic. That’s why most people shy away from it at work, dinner parties, and family gatherings. But today, I want to challenge the notion that our differences define us and approach this sensitive topic from the perspective of unity. Regardless of whether you believe in a God or a divine force or are undecided about the existence of something greater, I believe the core thread that unites us all is a shared spirit that transcends those labels. In t...

547: Reflecting On Death (Our Own and Our Loved Ones)

545: Taking Your Personal Development to the Next Level with René Rodriguez

Which aspects of your life do you most want/need to improve? Take a moment to think honestly about your answer... Whatever area of your life you’d like to improve, I’ve found few philosophies more accurate and effective than Jim Rohn’s: “Your level of success will rarely exceed your level of personal development.” In other words, it’s who we become that determines our ability to create the life we want. And I’ve found this to be true in virtually every area of my life—finances, health, parenting...

I have a confession: in the last few years, I gave up on my dreams. Or more accurately, I stopped dreaming altogether.

Of course, these last few years haven't given us much more certainty. However, life has always been unpredictable.

Today’s episode was inspired by a comment on a post I made in our Miracle Morning Community Facebook Group. Someone asked how I built the Miracle Morning into a worldwide movement. As you may know, one of my “impossible goals” was to change one million lives one morning at a time by selling a million copies of my self-published book. The truth is, I failed miserably in that first year and was 987,000 copies short of my goal. But the lesson from that was that I didn’t give up and found the right ...
