Cristi Johnson: How to Beat Imposter Syndrome and Thrive in Your Purpose Jun 30, 2021

Show notes

We've all been there. The moment when you're ready to demand more from life. A more purposeful career, more income, more abundance. And that little critic in the back of your head steps in and whispers "Who do you think you are to want this?"

Imposter syndrome is real and it is the #1 factor that prevents people from truly creating their amplified life.

However, this week on a special case study episode, Dan talks to Cristi Johnson, one of Dan's success stories!

In nine months, she just had the ribbon cutting ceremony on her new personal training facility, skellaFiT in Norther Michigan.

Some of the topics discussed in the episode include...

How taking inspired action in the face of imposter syndrome has bred success in her line.
Unapologetically owning your story and how that will magnetize the masses and find the people you are meant to serve.
Letting go of control and how the art of surrender has led to some of the greatest blessings of her life.
How she built a brick and mortar business while also reducing her debt by 80%.

How to Talk to Your Boss about Your Return to Work Jun 22, 2021

Show notes

A study was released that said 50% of Americas are unsure they'll ever recover from the stress of living through the pandemic.

We know when our body faces a threat or stress, it goes to a fight to fight response.

So many people need a long vacation or even want to quit their job before they go back to the 9-5 work week.

It's creating a trend call "the great resignation," where we're seeing the highest number of employees resigning in the last 20 years.

If you don't have a strategy to deal with the stress and ask for your needs, you're going ot find yourself repeating the same patterns at the next destination.

This episode, Dan shares a three part framework that will help you address your return to work. Also, this communication strategy can help any relationship in your life!

Dr. Don Wood: How to Increase Performance by Healing Your Trauma Jun 01, 2021

Show notes

No matter where you are in your life, there's a next level you want to get to. So often, when we can't seem to close that gap between where we're at and where we want to be, we look for some external solution to solve our problem. But the real work that will help you move forward is by going within. Unhealed unemotional trauma is not just a block to better mental health it can be a block to better high performance and even some physical health conditions.

Dr. Don Wood, PhD developed the TIPP method after spending years researching how atmospheric conditions™ affect our minds and impact our lives. He went back to school later in life to get his PhD in clinical counseling and psychology, to learn how to heal his daughter’s crohn's disease and his wife’s autoimmune disease.

Topics discussed this week include:

The unconventional life circumstances that led him to researching trauma.
Unresolved trauma and its impact on marriage and relationships.
The surprising link between the mind and body.
Is trauma is stored in our body or are the physical symptoms we're experiencing just the result of what's happening in the brain?

What we can expect in terms of the lasting impact of the pandemic.

Five Questions to Call Yourself Out and Move Beyond a Victim Mentality May 25, 2021

Show notes

Sometimes when we interact with people, it doesn't go the way we planned. A potential online date doesn't always respond to your messages. A friend not returning your call when you reached out and needed help. We've all had that experience of a strange flashing you a dirty look as they walk past you.

These are just normal experiences in life but how do you interpret those situations? Do you take it personally and make it about you? Or do you stop and consider that maybe there's something else going on?

This week on the podcast, Dan is here to help you get really clear on the difference between being victimized and operating in the victim mentality.

Plus, you'll get 5 questions you can use to call yourself out so you can give up your victim mentality and thrive in your amplified life.

How to Stop Living on Autopilot and Take Back Your Life May 18, 2021

Show notes

It's often been said that decisions shape our destiny. If you traced the dots back, you could probably find the one decision that might have seemed inconsequential in the moment that led to some of the greatest joys of your life.

On the other side, there are probably some things that happened in your life that didn't go the way you want that all started with one decision.

Every decision we make is either moving us closer to the goals that we have or it's giving us the lesson we need to learn in order to make those things happen.

Every decision, even ones we think are minor, are having a profound impact on your future and on your destiny.

Dan has learned that there is one decision in particular that seems to have the most profound effect on everything.

This week, Dan will tell you what that decision is AND how to consciously and actively make decisions every day that lead you to where you want to go in life.

Four Steps to Move from Languishing to Flourishing May 11, 2021

Show notes

Over the last year, Dan has shown you people he's worked that that have been flourishing during the pandemic. He's also talked a lot about how to handle the mental health challenges so many are facing right now.

One thing that hasn't been discussed are people living in the messy middle: people not necessarily crushing it and not necessarily depressed.

For many, the dominant emotion over the last year has been a state of languishing. Showing up, but not living with purpose or aim.

This week, Dan is here to help you move from languishing to flourishing in your life.

Archie Messersmith-Bunting: The #1 Shift to Improve Your Well-Being May 03, 2021

Show notes

We can spend years reading the self help books. We can intellectually understand all the events of our life that have blocked us as fully and vibrantly as we want. But we stay in the place of intellectualizing. We understand, but we never embody a new way of being.

This week's guest is going to get you out of your head and back into your heart. That's where you can bring change into your life.

Archie Messersmith-Bunting is The Feelings Guy. He's a mental wellness coach, consultant and professional speaker. In his former life, he was a successful musical theatre performer on Broadway before addiction and clinical depression destroyed his childhood dream and led him to a place where suicide seemed like the only option.

After battling back from the jaws of addiction, Archie now uses the stage to remind us that we're all more than the wreckage of our past.

Some of the topics covered include:

How unresolved childhood trauma and drug use led Archie to a downward spiral that cost him his dream career, but how he also bounced back from it.
The night he died in a hospital and why Grey's Anatomy has been lying to us for the last 20 years.
How you can't get better until you get honest with yourself.
How trauma is healed in safe connection with other people.
How our suffering doesn't make us special.
The importance of taking personal responsibility for your life.
Why we need to feel our own grief without qualifying it.

The YOLO Economy and 5 Steps to Live Your Dreams Without Going Broke Apr 26, 2021

Show notes

Why should we wait to pursue our dreams after retirement?

There's such a push to work really hard right now and sacrifice the present for the future.

Why not create happiness right now in the present moment?

Dan believes this YOLO economy signifies the fact that as a global workforce, we've awakened to the biggest lie that corporate America has sold us: you have to obtain a certain level of financial security before you're allowed to address your own emotional needs.

People are waking up in the last year. The pandemic has changed our priorities and made us realize we don't have to live like this.

This week on the podcast, Dan holds a funeral for the "hustle culture" and shares five best strategies to live your dreams without going broke.
