In this episode of ShowUp2Heal, Dwayne Morton sits down with author, coach, and creator Jon Prince, known online as The Perception Coach, for a powerful conversation about fear, purpose, mindfulness, taking action, self-doubt, personal growth, and learning to start before you feel ready.
Jon shares how his years as a professional poker player taught him to navigate uncertainty, losing streaks, confidence, and the stories we create around our circumstances. He explains how changing what he focused on—from constantly noticing his losses to intentionally recognizing small wins—began to change not only his mindset but the way he experienced his life.
They also explore leaving behind a successful career that no longer felt fulfilling, discovering purpose through volunteering, meditation, content creation, overcoming perfectionism, and taking meaningful action even when fear is still present.
Jon also shares the story behind his book, Start Before You're Ready, including the doubts he experienced while writing it, the publishing process with Hay House, and why becoming ready often happens after you begin—not before.
If you're overthinking your next move, waiting until you feel completely prepared, struggling with fear or perfectionism, or wondering what the next chapter of your life could look like, this conversation is a reminder that you don't need the entire path figured out. You just need to take the next step.

In this episode of ShowUp2Heal, Dwayne Morton sits down with breathwork facilitator, teacher, mentor, and founder of The Willful Warrior, Leland Holgate Sr., for a powerful conversation about healing, nervous system regulation, gratitude, performance, identity, resilience, and learning how to experience life without constantly judging yourself by the outcome.Leland shares how an intentional morning practice helps shape the way he approaches his day, why gratitude can begin with the simplest things we often take for granted, and how breathwork can create space for greater awareness, stillness, and presence.They also explore fear, failure, manifestation, self-worth, competition, public speaking, friendship, spirituality, personal growth, and the freedom that can come from releasing the need to perform. Leland explains why he views failure as feedback, why supporting other people's success doesn't diminish your own, and what changed when he stopped trying to force and began allowing himself to actually live them.If you're working on your mental health, trying to move beyond performance-based self-worth, learning to trust yourself, exploring breathwork, or simply wanting to experience more of your life instead of constantly trying to prove yourself, this conversation offers a different perspective on what it means to show up, heal, and grow.

7:37 — Big T and little t traumaKelly explains that trauma can be obvious or subtle, but either way it must be integrated, not just named.
8:30 — Healing hurts, but leads to growth He compares healing to working out: discomfort is often the sign that growth is happening.

24:22 — Self-love is proven by behavior He explains that self-love shows up in the promises you keep to yourself and the decisions you make.

https://www.facebook.com/SarahElkins.HUmanMeetsBEinGIG: human_meets_beingIn this episode of Show Up to Heal, Dwayne Morton talks with Dr. Joe Vitale about mental health, personal responsibility, kindness, and the inner work behind lasting transformation. The conversation moves from suicide prevention and negative thinking to ho'oponopono, morning routines, curiosity, and the ideas behind Zero Limits Living.We discuss why healing starts with the questions we ask ourselves, how support and community can change a life, and why Dr. Joe believes curiosity is one of the most powerful forces in personal growth.Key topics:Dwayne opens with a personal reflection on why Dr. Joe’s voice and work have been meaningful in his own journey.Dr. Joe answers three mental health questions by emphasizing that growth begins with conversation, curiosity, and being willing to learn from others.He says one of the biggest improvements people can make is reading more every day, even if it is only a few pages.Dr. Joe explains that many people stay limited because of inherited and cultural programming that shapes beliefs early in life.He shares why helping others has never felt like a burden to him, tracing that mindset back to the kindness he received while homeless and living in poverty.He references Bob Proctor and Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People as examples of the power of kindness, service, and focus on others.Dr. Joe speaks openly about surviving a suicidal moment in the 1970s and explains how curiosity about tomorrow helped him put the gun down.He offers practical advice for people in crisis: hold on to hope, keep your dreams alive, and get support through groups and community.He describes negative thinking as a kind of addictive pattern and says the remedy is to become the witness of your thoughts rather than obey them.He recommends Napoleon Hill’s Outwitting the Devil as a key book for understanding the mental patterns that sabotage progress.Dr. Joe explains how his morning routine of silence, gratitude, prayer, intention, reading, and stretching sets the tone for his whole day.He shares the origin story of learning ho'oponopono, including hearing about Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len, hiring a private detective, and meeting him in person.Timestamps:00:00 - Dwayne introduces the episode and Dr. Joe Vitale00:54 - Dr. Joe’s bio and the purpose of the conversation03:21 - What mental health is doing right04:11 - Why reading every day matters05:09 - Breaking free from inherited limitations08:03 - Why helping others has never felt like a burden10:26 - Dale Carnegie, kindness, and living for others12:11 - Why most people stay focused on survival15:18 - Suicide awareness and what people in pain need most16:03 - Dr. Joe’s suicidal moment and the question that saved him19:01 - Hope, dreams, and getting support20:31 - The power of helping someone else22:48 - Negative thinking as an addictive pattern30:22 - How to handle negative thoughts without fighting them32:10 - Napoleon Hill’s Outwitting the Devil33:31 - Why morning routines shape the day36:13 - The story behind discovering ho'oponopono39:23 - Curiosity as the engine of Dr. Joe’s life41:41 - Why everyone should get more curious43:08 - Building Zero Limits around multiple voices45:36 - The impact and reach of Zero Limits47:53 - New movies, new books, and mixed martial arts goals50:20 - Dwayne closes the interview and thanks Dr. JoeResources & Links:https://joevitale.com/Zero Limits Moviehttps://www.zerolimitsmovie.com/The Pillars of Power Moviehttps://thepillarsofpower.com/Napoleon Hill Foundationhttps://www.naphill.org/Connect with Dr. Joe Vitale:https://www.facebook.com/drjoevitaleIG: drjoevitale
