I feel like there is this shift in what used to be the habits and routines of “extreme biohackers” or “health gurus” and now those same things have become part of a lifestyle that people are adapting to make it their new healthy normal. What we eat, how we move, what we focus on, how we approach health & supplements & body recovery, having a low stress lifestyle - all of it. This is - my opinion - the best ever cultural shift… because it makes us all healthier, happier in our day to day ...

If you spend 18 minutes a day — focused on learning or practicing a skill, you will become better than 95% of the population at that skill. That’s the 100 hour rule. It’s about consistency and this concept of small daily progress that compounds over time. Jesse Itzler popularized this concept and it shows that you can become great at anything you’re willing to put 100 hours towards. You don’t need more time. You need more intention. In this episode I’m pulling out so many of the highlighted sect...

We took Parker and the girls and a few buddies to Dave and Busters a few weeks ago and there was this small thing that happened that has been a huge perspective shift in my life. it's worth a podcast episode.

The craziest thing that I’ve learned over the last year of reading and re-reading aging and longevity books is that much of what we think is natural aging is actually neglect. My goal in this episode is to reframe what we assume or are told is “natural aging” or “just getting older” and show all the small things that we might be neglecting over time. This whole concept is so empowering!! Rather than feeling like we aren’t in control of how we age, we realize that we are actually in control of so...

Quick story to explain this - I was testing out a new business and I was talking to my husband about this product and the cost of goods and profits and the industry and I was explaining about the strong positioning I’ll have in the marketplace and he was like many sold last month and what was the net profit? And when I told him - he’s like your time is worth more- that’s not big enough - and I’m like totally - but I haven’t even gotten started. He’s like but you have sales- I was like I know, bu...

Today we are training to be unaffected by chaos! How to get through it without anxiety or stress or losing your cool. I love topics that make us make a plan ahead of time, so when we are in a situation like this, we react exactly as we want to because we’ve thought through it ahead of time. We aren’t reacting out of emotion, but out of a place of control and strategically. You probably know I always talk about reacting based on what you want the outcome to be, not how you feel in the moment. We’...

This podcast topic might seem a little extreme, but I honestly think it’s the difference between planners and doers. Between amateurs and pros. It’s this attitude that I will succeed at this or I will die trying. Said differently - I won’t stop until it works. Because everything takes a long time and it will eventually work if you try hard enough and do enough repetitions and fail enough and learn enough lessons. Sometimes the original plan is what ends up working and sometimes you pivot 50 time...

There is this incredible freedom that comes when you simply cannot be offended. You have more inner peace, stronger relationships and just more joy in your days. In order to never be offended by something someone says, I think we need to first put them in one of two buckets, then unpack from there. They are either in your inner circle or not in your inner circle. If they are - then you love them unconditionally and you know they aren’t perfect, just like all of us, and we have bad days or bad mo...

To me Valentine’s is so much more impactful when it feels like a season of extra love, rather than a mandatory date night on a certain day. At the entrance to our wedding in 2009, when I was 27 years old, I hand rhinestoned letters to go over the arch walking into our reception in Mexico that said CELEBRATE LOVE because that’s literally my life mantra. Love is what we all want to feel and experience and it’s one of the greatest life gifts. This podcast episode is all about ways to use this time ...

This is one of those things that I wish I would have understood as clearly in my 20s and 30s as I do now in my 40s… but I guess that’s living and learning. It’s the understanding that the small things are what matters. The small things we do or don’t do everyday. It’s what Warren Buffet describes as the power of compounding interest. It’s building a little snow ball and rolling it down a very long hill. It’s slow then it’s fast. This is my problem with the whole - don’t sweat the small stuff thi...

When someone asks you if you can attend an event or party or get together, what’s the first thing you do? You check if you’re free! If you’re available at that day and time. And then, if you are free, you’ll probably say yes. How could you say no, you aren’t busy then. This is where it happens! We feel like we owe it to them to go, because we aren’t busy. But we could end up spending that half a day doing something really fulfilling and invigorating, instead of going to the obligatory baby showe...

Here’s how it works. Every Sunday when you are planning out your week, you decide on what your four no’s will be. These are things that you just won’t do. It works so well because it’s not making this big list of things you have to do - like go to the gym for an hour a day, set aside time and a quiet space to meditate- while I love all things like that too- what we are talking about today is so much easier because it doesn’t require more time or energy. It just requires discipline and self contr...
