The 200% Life — Business
The 200% Life

Over the past 13 years, Adam Hergenrother has bootstrapped his way to a billion dollar organization. He’s had what others call success… but he found himself asking, “Is this all there is?”

The truth is, the material success we experience in our outer worlds is only 100% of the puzzle. We also need to tap into the 100% of life that is our inner world (meditation, the ego, identities and self-concepts, etc.) to truly experience the life of fulfillment, joy, and enthusiasm we all strive for. We call this the 200% life.

This show is for the leaders and high achievers who have reached success on the outside and still feel like something is missing in their life. We dig deep into the tough questions about life and business and leadership. You’re going to learn how to get and give anything you want in life by mastering your inner world first.

After all, business is nothing but a conduit for your personal growth.

This is The 200% Life, hosted by Adam Hergenrother. (Previously Business Meets Spirituality)

What Motivates Successful Leaders? May 04, 2021

Show notes

The driving force behind human action is motivation. Think about what truly motivates you. You may be motivated to lose weight, make more money, or gain more freedom. The thing is, if the motivation turns out to be a means to end, then it is not true motivation. The most impactful motivation comes from when you are living from your true and authentic self, free from ego, from which you can experience a much more powerful drive that is focused by your intentions in alignment with nature. From this place of authenticity, you can start living a bigger life than you ever thought possible.

But, it’s not easy to just let go of old drives that do not serve you or to surrender the mind’s stories we have long believed about ourselves. So this week, we talk about how to flow from a state of acceptance, joy, and enthusiasm, and why that will help us be even more productive and clear than just trying to muscle through with external motivation.

Seven Mistakes To Avoid When Scaling a Business Apr 27, 2021

Show notes

Learning how to successfully scale businesses isn’t exactly like learning to ride a bike. There is no surefire way to grow any business with guaranteed success, and the risks stretch beyond yourself. There aren’t any training wheels, but there are mistakes you can avoid when you begin the journey into growing and expanding your organization which will save you some growing pains down the road. This week, Hallie and I discussed the top seven mistakes we see leaders and CEOs make when trying to scale a business, whether it’s scaling for the wrong reasons, holding onto projects that would be better handled by someone else, or simply how they treat their own finances as their profitability increases. We have made some of these same mistakes along the way, but we are here to help you learn from our experience so you can avoid some of the pitfalls of growing your own business. See full show notes.

An Interview With Neuroscience & Consciousness Author Chris Niebauer — No self, No Problem Apr 20, 2021

Show notes

This week, I am joined by Ph.D. Chris Niebauer, author of the groundbreaking new book, No Self, No Problem: How Neuropsychology is Catching Up to Buddhism. Chris shares with me the story of how he became interested in neuroscience, psychology, and Eastern philosophy after being devastated by the loss of his father. During his studies and research in grad school, he found parallels between the latest discoveries about the brain and the philosophies of Buddhism, specifically the practices that allow us to develop an awareness and manage basic mental challenges like fear and anxiety to alleviate suffering. He wrote his book to share his findings with the world and help others who are struggling with anxiety. Chris and I talk about the interplay between consciousness and neural science, embracing emotions, and why Chris feels it’s best to have one foot in the doing world but not attach yourself to the outcomes in it.

How Do You Find Your Right Leader or Executive Assistant Match? Mar 30, 2021

Show notes

We get this question all the time from people who have read or listened to The Founder & The Force Multiplier — how do you know if you are working with the right strategic partner? Everyone wants to have a strategic partnership, but finding a partner and building and maintaining that relationship requires both parties to be equally committed. It requires you to take a good look at yourself and ask if you are ready and able to take on the responsibility of being one half of this kind of partnership.

First, Hallie and I define what a Force Multiplier even is, and how this role fits into a person’s goals and vision beyond just being a timely business buzzword. We also talk about the difference between a Force Multiplier and an assistant, and how both strategic and transactional roles have their purpose and are important in different ways. Then, we talk about how a leader can find a Force Multiplier from their talent pool, and the distinguishing factors to look out for when setting up a dynamic relationship between both parties. Listen for tips on finding talent and achieving more with the power of a Founder and Force Multiplier dynamic. See full show notes.

Input Overload! How To Consume Media Purposefully & Stay Focused Mar 09, 2021

Show notes

There is a mountain of content out there for each and every one of us. Between social media channels, emails, the news, emerging apps, tools, and technology, there’s a lot of noise in our world. We are nearly constantly bombarded with new articles we “need” to read, new must-listen podcasts, conferences, webinars, new episodes to stream — all while our emails are piling up in multiple inboxes. It is easy to feel overwhelmed by this ceaseless influx of new information — some of it contradictory, and much of it ultimately useless to our businesses and our lives.

This week, Hallie and I talk about how to cut through the noise and get purposeful about the content you consume. Of course, it’s important in whatever industry you are in to pay attention and stay on top of the news, but not at the cost of your and your team’s performance in the moment. We talk about building purpose into your content choices by revisiting goals, staying centered and laser-focused, and how to say no to media that isn’t helping move you or your business forward.
