DB 105: Iron Cowboy James Lawrence On The 50-50-50 & The Power Of Self Belief Oct 01, 2018

Show notes

Iron Cowboy James Lawrence completed 50 Ironman distance triathlons, in 50 days, in each of the 50 United States -- The 50-50-50. A single Ironman is an incredible accomplishment -- as it consists of a 2.4-mile (3.86 km) swim, a 112-mile (180.25 km) bicycle ride and a marathon 26.22-mile (42.20 km) run, raced in that order and without a break. So you can see why everyone told James he was absolutely out of his mind to think he could do an Ironman 50 days in a row, especially with the travel required to do this in all 50 US States. But as you'll learn in this episode, James did reach his goal, learned a ton about himself and life through the process -- and certainly earned his incredibly cool nickname -- the Iron Cowboy.

Show notes

Eva shares a very powerful secret with our Big Dreamers, and we have to give credit to author Rachel Hollis for this one!

For those of you are not familiar with Rachel, she is a super successful author and podcaster and influencer who recently wrote a best selling book called Girl, Wash Your Face which has sold over 1M copies.

DB 102: Why The Word "Hate" Is A Dream Killing Monster! Sep 10, 2018

I hate traffic (ok, maybe I've been guilty of saying that too often). Is the word "hate" is overused in your household? If so, be sure your kiddos listen to this powerful episode where Eva shares the devastating impact that the word "hate" can have on your life. For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/102

DB 101: 3 Powerful Tips to Overcome Negative Thoughts Sep 03, 2018

Show notes

Today, Eva answers a question from Tom in Seattle. Tom writes: Eva, I hope you can help me with something. I play baseball. I've been playing for a few years now, and it is my favorite sport. Like in any sport, you have good days and you have bad days. Sometimes, I will play really well, and I'll get a few big hits, score some runs, and even help my team win. Other times, it feels like I can't hit the ball. I'll strike out or hit the ball right to the infielder for an easy out. Here's the problem that my parents and I noticed. While I do feel happy when I play well, I feel way way worse when I play bad. For example, if we win, we give High 5s to the other team, we celebrate, I feel great, and then I just go about my normal day. But when we lose and I play bad, it really bums me out. And not just right after the game. I'll actually come home and still be upset about it hours later. Do you have any advice on how I can enjoy the good games more, and not let the bad games affect me so much?

Enjoy this episode where Eva shares the scientific explanation for why humans tend to focus on the negative more than the positive, and 3 powerful tips to help overcome negative thoughts (and embrace positive ones)!

DB 100: Episode 100! Top 5 (Surprising) Lessons Learned From The 1st 100 Episodes Aug 27, 2018

Show notes

We did it! 100 Episodes of the Dream Big Podcast. Nearly two years of publishing weekly episodes. It has been a remarkable journey and we thank you all for being part of it. Rather than do a normal interview or solo episode, Eva wanted to recap the top 5 lessons she has learned from the first 100 episodes. What's so incredible about these 5 lessons is that we could not have predicted any of them when we first launched the show. But that is the way life works! You live, and you learn!

DB 099: What Should You Do When You Get Angry (And What You Should Never Do!) Aug 20, 2018

Show notes

This episode covers a topic that is rarely discussed on the podcast, and that is anger. We often talk about the importance of having a positive attitude, but sometimes -- especially when something that is unfair has happened -- we are human and get angry. But what you do (or do not do) when you get angry is the focus of this episode. Eva shares a classic story to illustrate her point -- that it is best to control your temper and make sure you are calm rather than responding in anger. We think you'll love the story she shares, and the lesson we can all learn from it. For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/99

DB 098: Zig Ziglar's Timeless Quote: You Don't Have To Be Great To Start, But You Have To Start To Be Great Aug 13, 2018

Show notes

In this week's episode, Eva answers a question from a Big Dreamer who is interested in starting her own podcast. Jenny from Long Island has been waiting for 2 years to launch her podcast because she is trying to get everything perfect before she publishes her 1st episode. Eva shares a great Zig Ziglar quote -- "You Don't Have To Be Great To Start, But You Have To Start To Be Great" -- and encourages Jenny to get started now. There is a great lesson for all Big Dreamers, young and old, who are pressing the snooze button on their dreams. There is never going to be a perfect time to start, and you always learn so much about yourself during the process. For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/98

DB 097: Worst Case Scenario Thinking: A "Backwards" Strategy To Get You Out Of Your Comfort Zone Aug 06, 2018

Show notes

We are big proponents of having a positive attitude here at the Dream Big Podcast. So I think that most of our Big Dreamers will be surprised that this week's episode is about engaging in Worst Case Scenario thinking. This "backwards" strategy is very powerful, and will be a good lesson for kids and adults that the "worse case scenario" is often not that terrible after all. And when you compare the "worse case scenario" with the benefits that you'll experience if the outcome turns out positive, this strategy will help you break out of your comfort zone and grow.
