DB 185: How I Schedule My Day & Make It A Game! Mar 27, 2020

Show notes

The first week of having the kiddos home from school was definitely a challenge. We continue to work full-time with important calls scheduled throughout the day, and Eva and Sophia also have online Zoom classes to join. We know from chatting with our friends that Week 1 was chaotic for everyone. It became quickly apparent that we needed to get our family on the same page, and make adjustments to meet the challenges of this new reality. We are happy to report that Week 2 is going so much better, and it all comes down to how we schedule our day. We've even gamified the day with a game called Score 4. To earn 4 points, you need to score 1 point in each of the following 4 categories: (1) Body; (2) Brain; (3) Best Friends & Family; and (4) Big Dreams.

In Episode 185, Eva shares how scheduling our day has been such a game-changer, and shares the essential elements of her daily routine. We're planning to do a Score 4 challenge with you all in April, so stay tuned for more details on that. And be sure to join our "Dream Big Squad" Facebook Group -- where we shared a PDF of our Daily Planning sheet, which incorporates the Score 4 game. We'll also be going live in our Group in April to connect with all you Big Dreamers who are participating in the Score4 challenge with us. So join the Group, and together we'll come out of April stronger than ever before :) Show notes at DreamBigPodcast.com/185

DB 184: How This Pandemic Is Like Riding A Bike (Up A Steep Hill) Mar 25, 2020

Show notes

Ever since Eva launched the podcast in October 2016, we have published a new episode every monday. We have not missed a single Monday since we launched because it is our commitment to all you Big Dreamers to create content that will train your brain to be strong and optimistic no matter the circumstances. Given these challenging times and the fact that Eva is home from school, we are going to double down on our efforts and produce more content than ever before. We're not sure exactly what that will look like just yet -- because we are learning as we go -- but we wanted to do our part to give your families positive and inspirational messages during the Pandemic.

Today, Eva shares a powerful metaphor for how our new reality is much like the challenge of biking up a steep hill. We went for a bike ride this weekend to Eva's school, and had to climb a long, steep incline as we approached the school. We had to keep moving, keep pedaling to get to our destination. If we had slowed down and stopped pedaling, we would have never made it! The same applies here. Our families have to keep growing during these challenging times. Eva shares the story of our bike ride, and how we can all keep momentum in the weeks and months ahead as we battle and ultimately win this fight against the Corona Virus.

DB 183: When You Are Upset or Stressed, Answer These 3 Questions. Mar 23, 2020

Show notes

It's been a challenging week for the entire world. The stock market is crashing. "Stay At Home" orders have been issued. Kids are home from school. And outside our immediate family, we can't interact in-person with our closest family and friends. Under these circumstances, it is no surprise that people are stressed, angry, and scared. But we can't let those negative emotions consume our lives, and that is especially the case for our young kids. In this Episode 183, Eva shares the 3 Questions our family has been asking to train our brains to stay strong during these difficult times. As Tony Robbins famously says, when you ask better questions you get better answers. When Sophia, our 4 year old, was feeling upset the other night because she misses her teachers and friends, we went through the 3 questions and she went from crying to laughing :) Links to our show notes, as well as to the free Positive Mindset course we released can be found at DreamBigPodcast.com/183

DB 182: Corona Virus: We Are Here To Help (2 Free Resources) Mar 19, 2020

Show notes

We know that these are very scary, uncertain times. That stress is further magnified as millions of kids (including ours) are home from school, and even worse, are isolated from friends and relatives. Now, more than ever, our kids need to train their brain to stay upbeat and positive as we navigate this challenging period in human history. We feel we are in a unique position to help given Eva's podcast. We have over 180 episodes filled with personal growth content and interviews with world-class performers like Simon Sinek, Mel Robbins, and the late, great Kobe Bryant. But we want to do MORE, and now have the extra time to do it with Eva home from school. So we are making 2 announcements: (1) We are releasing a FREE Positive Mindset course. The course contains 5 professionally illustrated video lessons (taught by Eva) and an accompanying PDF fill-in-the-blank workbook. This is not content we rushed to put together in the last few days. It is part of a premium course we will be releasing later this year, but we know how important it is to keep a positive outlook through this ordeal so we are releasing this now FREE OF CHARGE; and (2) We created a free Facebook Group called the Dream Big Squad. With our entire family home, we will be sharing videos showing you behind-the-scenes on how we are maintaining a good attitude during these trying times. The podcast is audio-only so we are looking forward to sharing video content in the Group and connecting with you on a more personal level. As an added bonus if you join the Group, you will see we are offering a bonus course on how kids can be more confident speakers (this is for those who leave their email address in the Group's questionnaire).

DB 181: The Power of EPIC Experiences Mar 16, 2020

Show notes

Last week, Eva went on a week-long outdoor education trip with her entire 5th grade class. When we picked her up from school after the experience, she had tears streaming down her face as she exited the bus. Initially we were concerned, but within a few seconds she shared that she had so much fun that she didn't want the trip to end. And that's why she was crying! Eva had enjoyed an EPIC experience with her friends. At our family dinner that evening, we were amazed when Eva observed that it is experiences that matter most in life. In this episode, Eva opens up about her special week with her classmates, and also explains why experiences (especially epic ones) can be so powerful and make such a lasting impact on your life.

DB 180: My GrandMentor Myron Golden On Sales, Marketing & Storytelling Mar 09, 2020

Show notes

Our guest in Episode 180 is Myron Golden. In episode 176, Eva had her mentor Russell Brunson on the show. Russell is considered one of the world's leading marketers and Myron is the person that Russell commonly refers to as his mentor. That's why the title of this episode refers to Myron as Eva's GrandMentor :) We are big believers that it is never too early to start dreaming big and taking action. But we're also big believers in the power of mentorship, and after you hear Eva's interview with Myron, you will understand why Russell turns to Mryon for advice. Myron contracted polio as an infant and has walked with a metal brace on his leg his entire life. That hasn't stopped Myron from becoming a black belt in martial arts and a skilled golfer. And it certainly hasn't held him back in business - where Myron has become a go-to speaker and trainer in the areas of sales and marketing. Eva met Myron at Russell's Unlock the Secrets event last year -- and we're so grateful that she decided to introduce herself, invite him on the podcast, and that Myron agreed to be her guest. Please enjoy Eva's interview with her GrandMentor, Myron Golden. For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/180

DB 179: 2 Important Life Lessons We Can Learn From My Chickens! Mar 02, 2020

Show notes

A few months ago, Eva finally convinced us to let her get chickens. Up until last week, the entire experience has been smooth sailing. Eva and Sophia feed the chickens, clean the coop, and our dog Annie actually gets along with them. The kids prefer to be outside with the chickens and Annie than inside on their devices, and we started getting fresh eggs last month. So the chickens have been fun and nutritious. But then last week, Eva came to us very concerned because one of her hens named Velvet did not want to leave the nesting box. When Eva tried to remove Velvet from the coop, the hen even hissed and pecked at her. How rude! Eva did some research and figured out that Velvet was brooding. She was sitting on the eggs for the purpose of hatching them. The problem is that we don't have any roosters so these eggs are unfertilized and have no chance to hatch! Even worse, we discovered that brooding behavior is contagious because one of Eva's other hens Phoenix also started to brood. Eva thought it would be fun to do a podcast episode about the brooding hens, and she shares two important life lessons we can learn from their behavior. Eva has done a number of episodes on life lessons we can learn from animals, but this is the first time she has done an episode on her own pets. This is one of our favorite episodes, and we hope you love it too! For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/179

DB 178 - School Success Blueprint - How To Get Good Grades & Have A Blast At School! Feb 24, 2020

Show notes

It took us over 3 years -- but Eva has finally launched her first product, the School Success Blueprint at SchoolSuccessBlueprint.com. We could not be more proud of this professionally illustrated video workshop series. The Dream Big Podcast podcast (178 episodes now) has and will continue to be free -- but we have heard from so many of you who wanted Eva to go deep on a particular subject. In surveys to our listeners, we noticed a common pattern. Parents are struggling to get their kids to focus on school, especially with all the distractions now with devices and the internet. That's why we created School Success Blueprint, which shares the top mindset and productivity principles Eva has learned interviewing top performers, like Simon Sinek, Mel Robbins, General Stanley McCrystal and Kobe Bryant. All of the workshops and bonuses are beautifully illustrated and cost less than a family outing to IHOP! Eva worked tirelessly the last 4 months to put this together, and we are super proud of her effort and the result. We have an iron-clad 30-day money back guarantee, so enroll in SchoolSuccessBluepint today for a risk-free trial. Make this small investment in your kids' future today at SchoolSuccessBlueprint.com.

DB 177: Marketing Legend Russell Brunson On Creating Irresistible Offers + My Very First Funnel! Feb 17, 2020

Show notes

If you are a long-time listener of the Dream Big Podcast, you know that Russell Brunson has had a major influence on my life. I've already done 4 solo episodes sharing with you Big Dreamers the life-changing strategies I have learned directly from his teachings. So I could not be more excited to share that Russell is this week's guest on the Dream Big Podcast. Russell is probably most famous for popularizing the concept of sales funnels and launching ClickFunnels, a software that enables anyone with a voice to create an irresistible offer and then sell that offer online via a sales funnel. But to me, Russell should be most famous for being one of the world's best teachers. He provides frameworks that anyone can follow to share their unique gift with the world. Since today's interview is with the "category king" of Sales Funnels, I thought it would be the perfect time to show my mentor how even a 10 year old can "Do What Russell Says" and create an irresistible offer. So after you listen to my interview with the legendary Russell Brunson, you can check out my first funnel at SchoolSuccessBlueprint.com -- where I teach the top mindset and productivity principles for your kids to excel academically and socially at school. I have put together an incredible "stack" (my fellow Funnel Hackers will know what that means!), and you can give your kids a life-changing toolkit for less than what it costs for a family outing to IHOP :) But first, please enjoy my interview with my mentor Russell Brunson.

DB 176: If You Want To Be Perfect, Listen To This! Feb 10, 2020

Show notes

Last weekend, Eva performed as Annie from the class musical Annie! In this episode, Eva shares how it went (spoiler alert: it went great!) but also some important lessons she learned from her experience. Specifically, she talks about the things that went "wrong" during the show, and how she stayed focused and kept on performing to the best of her ability. We could not be more proud of Eva for her performance, but more importantly how she handled herself when things did not according to plan. Because as well all know life does not follow a perfect script, and the ability to adjust and keep on moving is an essential skill. For show notes, please visit DreamBigPodcast.com/176
