Enjoy this week as we get to know Cal’s personal journey and how he applies these skills to his work and life today. #leadership #motivation #inspiration #mindset #mindfulness #courage #inspirational https://www.milestonemind.com/journal/episode-63-from-muhammad-ali-to-serena-williams-mindset-with-legendary-cal-fussmanSupport the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

Transitioning from war to non-war life presented challenges to Stacy Bare that he wasn’t sure he was ready to take on at that point in his life. That was until a friend asked him if he would go for a climb with him, and to reconsider doing anything self-destructive until after they completed the expedition. Since that climb, things have never been the same for Stacy, and that how that adventure saved Stacy’s life. Come listen to my conversation with Veteran, Adventure Not War Founder, and 2014 National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, Stacy Bare. #climbing #northface #veterans https://www.milestonemind.com/journal/episode-62-overcoming-adversity-through-adventure-with-north-face-athlete-stacy-bareSupport the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

But, this is just the beginning. Kevin’s road to recovery, and its ups and downs, is the story of life and how it is asking us to keep going even in the depths of despair and hopelessness. Come listen to Kevin’s story of resiliency and grit as he recalls overcoming a series of challenges that tested him to his core - https://www.milestonemind.com/journal/episode-59-hard-learned-lessons-in-resilience-and-self-reliance-with-former-green-beret-kevin-flike --. #resiliency #tests #living #mindset #motivation #greenberet Support the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

milestonemind.com/journal/episode-57-how-do-we-define-failure - 'Fear of failure' is one of the most common motivators that pervades our professional world today. The deeper and deeper I've gotten into the science of motivation over the past several years, it appears that those who have succeeded at something worthwhile were almost entirely motivated by something other than fear or 'fear of failure,.' And, although many want to replicate these results from the inspirational people we look towards, by and large, we still feel compelled to try to motivate ourselves through fear or 'fear of failure.' This presents us a conundrum. Listen now. #inspiration #science #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #motivational #motivation #mindfulnessSupport the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

Cornell M.D. David Cunningham, along with his partner Wendy Cohen, Stanford M.D., made a massive leap moving from a system where they were paid through health insurance, to convincing patients it was to their benefit to pay for their primary-care out of their own pockets. https://www.milestonemind.com/journal/episode-56-redefining-the-doctor-patient-relationship-mindset-with-dr-david-cunningham And, they succeeded. Why? Instead of just sitting back and lamenting about how bad things are and were, they decided to do something about it. Come listen now as David goes through his journey of trusting his gut, his value system, to ultimately shifting his mindset to take on what seemed to be the inconceivable, to what is today a thriving - and rapidly growing - new business model in the healthcare field. #healthcare #howto #healthinsurance #massive #businessmodeling #leap Support the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

Would you give up everything and sail the world to save your marriage and relationships? https://www.milestonemind.com/journal/episode-55-sailing-around-the-world-with-his-family-while-selling-a-7-figure-business-with-caspar-craven That's what Caspar Craven did. From the New York Post: "Before the Cravens took their oceanic leap, Caspar was your typical, middle-aged man with young children that he barely saw and a strained, on-the-rocks marriage. “We were having a crummy time,” Caspar, 45, told The Post of his relationship with his wife, Nichola, 46. “The pressures of money, work and children were catching up with us.” Caspar and his wife decided they weren't going to wait any longer before the lived their dreams, when they knew that hoarding more money or accomplishments was just getting in the way of this. Come listen to Caspar's remarkable story, that he has since written a book named 'Where the Magic Happens' documenting this amazing journey with his family. #sailing #living #go #leadership #motivationalspeakingSupport the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

It was one of the most peaceful moments of my life this Friday, 13-years ago. I've never felt such love and support from the world around me - I got to experience the power of the human spirit and not just my own, but that of other amazing, everyday people. This week, I take some time to reflect about this experience of my brush with death, and share  with you a series of poems I've written that have helped me encapsulate these feeling into words. Although, somewhat somber, the real essence I hope is joy, love and gratitude. Support the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

What do greats like Walter Payton, UCLA Coach John Wooden, Blind Side’s Michael Oher all have in common? They created personal greatness that extended well past what seems comprehensible - but, it was in their approach and humility, that Don would exclaim, that they were unaware of their great effect. That, that is what makes a champion. Don Yaeger is a nationally acclaimed inspirational speaker, longtime Associate Editor of Sports Illustrated, and author of over 30 books, eleven of which have become New York Times Best-sellers. Enjoy my conversation this week with Don.Support the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)

What if we were to totally flip marketing on its head, and develop a bottom-up, organic approach to launching businesses, or better yet, helping local populations overcome acute disasters? That's exactly what Jesse Levin has developed with his 'expeditionary entrepreneurialism' approach, and the results are fascinating. This is a must listen if you're thinking about starting a new venture, and hopefully, this gives you hope that you don't need to become an Instagram or Facebook selfie star in order to do so.Support the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)
