In this episode, Jessica and Darren Salquist invite you to transform your life with willpower, coaching, and commitment. It all starts with a clear vision, the right mindset, and a solid support system. Be the HERO who takes charge of your journey and makes lasting changes. Today, we're excited to explore the power of willpower, the role of coaching, and the importance of commitment in achieving personal transformation. Drawing inspiration from influential voices and our own experiences, we're here to share insights that will help you harness your inner strength and build a roadmap to success. Alden Mills captures the essence of today's discussion perfectly: "Until the fear of staying put is greater than the fear of moving in the direction of your goal, you will stay put." In this episode, we break down how to harness the fear of stagnation as a motivator to propel you forward. We discuss the transformative power of coaching, drawing on our experiences with Laurie Mage, a dedicated coach who has helped us master willpower and self-control. We'll dive deep into the mechanics of willpower—understanding it as a muscle that can be strengthened—and how to manage the factors that deplete it. We also explore strategies for energy management, proactive decision-making, and the importance of recommitting to your goals regularly. You'll learn how to create a sustainable action plan and how to use the WOOP framework (Wish, Outcome, Obstacles, Plan) to turn your aspirations into reality.

Alden Mills is a three-time Navy SEAL platoon commander, author of Unstoppable Teams and Be Unstoppable, and was the CEO of Perfect Fitness, one of the fastest-growing companies in America. He learned that even in an elite team like the SEALs, leadership is not a given and respect must be earned. Alden shares about his transition to civilian life. It involved him adapting to a new set of values and culture, but his training in the military helped him set new goals and a mission plan to achieve them. He talks about having 2 oars: passion and purpose. Without one, he would go around in circles, but with both, he has his north star. To be unstoppable, use your progress forward as the fuel that keeps you going with the next action, and then the next, and so on, until you reach your goals.
