Are you an ‘All In or All Out’ Person? This is for you | CWM EP 230

Do you call yourself an ‘All in or All’ out person? If you said yes then I want to ask - do you want the good news or the bad news first? The thing is if being all in worked then we wouldn’t need to be here, right? And so we have to think differently about the way we commit to things which is what this episode is all about. Restructuring the way we think about commitment so that we don’t continue the self sabotage loop of abandoning our commitments when things don’t feel right. In this episode I...

What constitutes a superfood exactly? It’s hard to figure out since it feels like everything that has ever come out of the grown has had its day in the marketing limelight of superfood stardom.

Why Most People Repeat the Yo-yo Diet Cycle | CWM EP 228

Do you wish that life was different? Or even just your own body? Aside from the few people that have genuinely had bad luck (and it really is only just a few) the rest of us are writing our own stories. The sad truth is that if we're NOT writing our own stories, we become part of the carnage of someone else’s and that means that we don’t take ownership or direction of our life. Without a life that we want to live, with purpose and drive, there really is very little reason to maintain a body that...

How To Stop Cognitive Decline and Manage ADHD with Dr Amy Moore | EP 227

Does your memory not quite work as well as it used to? Are your kids not doing that well at school? It’s probably no surprise that social media, phone addicted world is causing physical destruction to our brains.

The Pursuit of Pleasure is Ruining Your Life | CWM EP 226

Do you want to be happy? It seems like we’ve been told since we were little kids and yet we no longer really need to pursue it. Things that give us pleasure and joy are absolutely everywhere. In our pockets, in our fridge, in the 24 hour service station down the road. There is so much happiness that it’s causing the opposite problem. So we have to take life by the horns and do it unconventionally to stop making ourselves so happy and comfortable all the time that it ends up leading down a dark a...

Your Annual Check-up: The 80 Point Checklist for Reflecting on Your Year | EP 213

Do you want to know whether your year was great or sucked? Often people write off the whole year based on their feeling or memory of a small collection of events and think that next year will be better. It’s rarely better because the same person is in both years. So step 1 to change the narrative is developing a realistic assessment of what happened over the last year before we attach spontaneous feelings to our thoughts about it. Listen in and feel okay about the parts that sucked and thankful ...
