Alive and Free

It's time to rip the cover off what really works to finally ditch stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, depression, past trauma, chronic pain, and all other kinds of human suffering. No, not just relief, recovery, comfort, healing, or sobriety. We're talking the F word here — freedom — Happiness and well-being on autopilot. My team and I will share straight from the trenches what we've learned from using a non-therapy, body-based approach to leave our own struggles behind while also coaching thousands of others to do the same. And since these are often such heavy topics, we’re gonna get a bit irreverent and have a good time while we're at it. Because, despite what you may have been told, real freedom never involves a fight.

In this episode, I’m ending relapsing once and for all so you’re never a prisoner to your habits and addictions again. Here Are The Show Highlights: The dirty “R-word” that is co...

The Illusion Of Control

There are two main philosophies guiding all of our lives. You either try to take control of every aspect of your life. Or you trust in the cosmos that everything will work out. And both seem pretty silly on the surface. Trying to control everything never works and ends in anxiety, depression, and worry. But passively hoping that everything will work out is equally as dangerous to your success. However, trying to control everything is more dangerous than the other philosophy. Why? Because control...
