How to buy back your time (and why you really should) May 24, 2024

Show notes

Delegating. Outsourcing. Reprioritizing. To the average person, these terms might give off a sense of passivity and lackluster effort. But in reality, business success doesn’t have to come at the expense of your freedom. Instead, successful entrepreneurs know how to pass along work that doesn’t inspire them, so they can focus on work that does.

This week’s episode tackles the question, “Does free time have more impact on professional success than time spent working?” According to Wall Street Journal best-selling author Dan Martell, the answer is a resounding “yes.” According to Albert and Stephanie, there’s way more to this topic than meets the eye.

Tune in to hear a spirited discussion about how our hosts view this concept, how they create separation between their work and personal lives, and what things they value most from their own free time. (Spoiler: There may be a middle ground for some people, but Albert and Stephanie are definitely sitting on different sides of this debate.)

Chakras and Energy Healing | How It Works May 01, 2024

Show notes

What do ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, the Bible, the Quran, the Upanishads, and the Vedas all have in common? They depict or discuss using hands for healing. This method of healing, whether physical or psychological, appears again and again across histories and cultures. With such a storied background, I was compelled to dive into the world of Energy Healing.

In this episode, I decided to experience energy healing firsthand. I invited an energy healer to guide me through the process. Tune in as I explore the basics of the 7 Chakras, describe my session with the energy healer, and share the mantras she taught me to help open my chakras.

Plus, I’ll share a story that completely changed how I view life’s experiences. It’s a shift in perspective that has allowed me to let go of regret, fear, pain, and anger, and it has been nothing short of eye-opening.
