Episode 186: Trust Your Desires Nov 24, 2022

Show notes

Sometimes we're scared to pursue our goals and dreams. Sometimes we even have the thought that maybe its selfish or self-centered to pursue what we want. Sometimes we can think that pursuing our own wants and desire is indulgent and that with all the trouble in the world, maybe what we want isn't important and we shouldn't be concentrating on it.

But I want you to notice something…everything you love and appreciate in your life is there because someone followed their own desires.

In today's podcast, I'll show you that not only are your desires good, but they come from God, and they are there to help you grow and they allow you to bless others. If you trust your desires and are willing to do the work to create the things you want in your life, you have the incredible opportunity to expand your own life experience and the experience of others.

Episode 185: How to Love Everyone at Your Holiday Table Nov 17, 2022

Show notes

You don't have to love everybody.

But you can if you want to.

We are about to enter the time of year when we have lots of get-togethers with our families and friends. That's a lot of human brains (who all think differently!) sharing the same space and gathering around the same table. That also means there are also going to be plenty of opportunities to have all kinds of thoughts and feelings about these other humans.

Your brain doesn't want to choose love. Your brain is only interested in what's gone wrong. And around your holiday table, it's going to be really focused on other people's choices and how they way the choose to think or feel or act is a problem.

Since you've never had any control over other people or their choices (no matter how much you disagree with them), the way to feel more love and peace around your table to is look at your own choices and make sure you agree with those—especially when it comes to choosing how much love you want to feel.

In today's podcast episode I'm sharing why it's sometimes hard to love everyone around the table and what you can do if you want to.

Episode 184: Fix Your Dopamine Deficit Nov 10, 2022

Show notes

All of us want to be happier. But that's actually part of the problem. Our constant desire for happiness, pleasure, ease, and contentment and our easy-access to dopamine-triggering activities and substances is causing most of us to end up in a dopamine deficit. This means that the more we pursue pleasure, the more pain we end up feeling.

In today's podcast episode, I explain how your brain's dopamine response works and how our pleasure is directly related to our pain. I'll show you how trying to avoid the painful part of our lives is throwing us out of balance and causing our brain to down regulate the amount of dopamine it creates, leaving us with depression, anxiety, and even withdrawal symptoms.

If we want to create more lasting happiness in our lives we need to consider intentionally reducing how much pleasure we have and purposefully increasing the amount of discomfort we experience so that we can heal our brain's dopamine deficit.

Episode 183: When You Don't Want To Nov 03, 2022

Show notes

We've all had the experience of deciding to change something in our lives or work on a new goal or pursue a dream, only to find ourselves "not wanting to do it" when the time comes to actually get to work and do it.

Our brains are really good at thinking "I don't want to," and even though it doesn't seem like a very important or significant thought, it is probably the thought that prevents most of our goals and dreams from happening.

In this week's podcast episode, I'm explaining why "I don't want to" is almost always a lie and what to do when you brain tells it to you so that you stop believing you don't want to and start getting all the things you really want.

Episode 182: Hope in the Darkness Oct 27, 2022

Show notes

It's easy to think that we should always be happy and, given the relative and ease and comfort of our lives, we also think that happiness should be easy to get and easy to sustain.

But the truth is that our human experience is a full of highs and lows. All of our lives are made up of contrasting emotional experiences, and we are here on earth to feel the full spectrum of human emotion. This means that we will all have times in our life where it feels like a fight to be happy.

In today's podcast episode, I'm sharing some thoughts to give you hope when things are dark, and I share ten things to remember when your thoughts feel dark and heavy and you find yourself struggling to be happy.

Episode 181: Meeting God on the Mountain: Spiritual lessons from 29029 Oct 20, 2022

Show notes

The lessons I got from completing the 29029 ultra-endurance event just keep coming. In this final episode, recapping and recounting the things I learned through this experience, I am sharing what I learned on the mountain on a spiritual level.

On that mountain I came to know more about me and more about God and more about my relationship with him than ever before. And I hope these thoughts will help you think about love and sacrifice and suffering and endurance in new ways.

Whatever challenges you are facing, you are not alone in them and the suffering and pain you experience can create a portal through which you can better understand God's deep and enduring love for you.

Episode 180: Climb Your Everest Oct 13, 2022

Show notes

I recently completed 29029, an ultra-endurance event in which participants climb the equivalent height of Mount Everest in 36 hours. Even though I had prepared for nine months for the event, I learned pretty quickly that preparation alone wasn't going to be enough to get me to the finish line.

29029 was so much harder than I thought it would be. It required so much more out of me than I anticipated, but through this experience I also figured out that was stronger than I ever thought I was. I was surprised at what I found out about myself, how deep my courage and commitment went, and what I am really capable of.

I want you to have that experience in your own life. In today's podcast, I'm sharing five ideas to encourage you to set big goals, blow your own mind, and keep going long after your brain says you should give up. Your Everest is waiting…go climb it!

Show notes

I recently completed the 29029 Everesting event, an ultra-endurance event in which participants climb the equivalent height of Mount Everest in 36 hours. This was the most challenging physical event I've ever participated in and I learned lots of mental and emotional lessons along the way.

No matter what challenge you are currently working on, the lessons I learned will help you see yourself and your experience differently, and strengthen your ability to endure, overcome, and eventually, triumph!

Episode 178: Your Visit to Earth Sep 29, 2022

Show notes

Queen Elizabeth once gave a speech and speaking of our life experience, she said: "We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love... and then we return home."

This is such a powerfully simple statement about the purpose of our lives.

We have all been given the gift of life. You are here. And all that is left is to decide how you are going to spend your visit.

In today's episode of the podcast, I want to encourage you to make the most of your visit to earth, to use the days you have to do the things you want to do as you pass through this place and show you what gets in the way of that.

You are visiting earth and you get to do whatever you want while you are here and today I'm sharing some powerful thoughts to help you do that.
