Welcome to this episode on courage, a fundamental quality that drives us to lead a life of purpose and fulfillment. Life demands the best of us, challenging us to rise out of our fears and comforts into the zones of peak performance. This conversation is deeply personal to me because I believe that within every human lies an incredible capacity to be strong, push past limits, and experience a broader range of joy, health, vitality, success, and achievement.However, many of us make excuses about why we aren't courageous or can't have what we deserve. We often fall into a victim mindset, believing that our challenges and struggles are beyond our control. This mindset holds us back from achieving our true potential.Courage isn't just about overcoming fear. It's about tapping into those things that push us to new levels and heights, not being defined by fear. Today, I'll share five areas to evaluate your level of courage and five strategies to improve it. Think of courage as a muscle that needs consistent exercise. By repeatedly stepping out of your comfort zone, you can strengthen your courage muscle.The life you want to live is worth the effort. While it won't be easy initially, it is possible, so challenge yourself to explore your courage. Dedicate yourself to being a courageous person and dare to live the life you've imagined. It's time to step out of the wings and take center stage in your life because you are worth the effort. Always have been and always will be. Until next time, go out there every single day and realize you are stronger than you ever imagined.Are you ready to embark on a transformative journey that blends logic and intuition?

Boosting your personal energy is essential for achieving success and living a fulfilling life. As someone once said, the world belongs to the energetic. If you need a mantra to guide you back to your best self, demanding accountability and providing the stamina to achieve anything, remember this: the power plant does not have energy; it generates energy. We must be the generators in our lives. By consciously intending to take command of our mind, body, and energetic source, we can choose to amplify our energy. This conscious choice allows us to spark our lives, increase our energy, and avoid depleting it through our thoughts, actions, behaviours, and emotions. Building an abundant and replenishing energetic bank account is within our control.Let's be honest: the root of all success is your energy—the stamina in your mind, heart, actions, and the habits you create. To help evaluate where your energy stands, I use a four-part energy gauge with my clients. This evaluation goes beyond daily routines, diving into the essence of how you feel in four key areas of your life. This process serves as a quick accountability assessment, encouraging you to reflect deeply on your current state of energy.Find a quiet place, free from distractions, and take the time to think about these benchmarks. It's more than just a conversation—it's an honest look at your energetic life. This reflection aims to reignite your energy, bringing renewed enthusiasm and engagement to all parts of your life—mentally, physically, and emotionally. While it's challenging to get the best out of ourselves, remember that the foundation of all success begins with energy. Let's embark on this journey to rediscover the spark and excitement for life with a new sense of aliveness.This episode is proudly sponsored by Karen Lyu, whose book 'Singing in Tune' takes a truly holistic approach to singing and contains clearly defined, yet simple-to-understand lessons, exercises, and practical tips for developing body awareness and maintaining a healthy, in-tune, and skilled voice.

This week on Voice and Beyond, we revisit an enlightening episode with my dear friend and colleague Dr. Travis Sherwood. Travis, who was recently honoured for his article “Powerful Dynamics: Exploring the Evolution of the Master-Apprentice Tradition,” has been recognized with an honorable mention in the 2023 Richard Sjoerdsma Award for Excellence in Writing.Travis holds advanced degrees from the University of Southern California and just recently was tenured and promoted to Associate Professor of Voice at San Diego State University's School of Music and Dance. His active performance career includes recent engagements with the Amarillo Opera, Opera a la Carte, La Jolla Symphony, and various international festivals.In addition to his performance career, Travis frequently leads masterclasses and lectures on artistic literacy, student-centered pedagogy, voice pedagogy, and vocal literature. He recently presented “A Compassionate Shift to a More Student-Centered Pedagogy” at the Cal-Western NATS Conference.In this episode, Travis delves into his research on the master-apprentice model's traditions and limitations. He explains how this model enforces a hierarchy in the teacher-student relationship, often leading students to prioritize their teacher's insights over their own, hindering their expressive and autonomous voice exploration. Travis advocates for evolving teaching practices to create safer, more supportive learning environments.Join Dr. Travis Sherwood and I for a thought-provoking discussion that challenges traditional teaching methods and encourages reflection on fostering creativity and independence in voice education.This episode is proudly sponsored by The LoVetri Institute for Somatic Voicework™ .

If overeating were simply an emotional issue, Dr. Glenn Livingston, a veteran psychologist, would have been best prepared to access those emotions to overcome his own overeating. Yet, despite making great strides to address his own issues, he still found himself binging. As a consultant for “Big Food”, he also understood that food manufacturers create and advertise their products in ways that are intended to hijack our reptilian brains. Willpower, he explains, is just the ability to make decisions. And in a society that demands we make an increasing amount of decisions big and small, we inevitably reach fatigue before the day is even through.    To circumvent these challenges, we must learn to recognize our trouble areas and put space between the stimulus and the response. Dr. Glenn unpacks a series of self-regulatory behaviors which can be valuable even to those who don't suffer from binging but who find themselves making decisions beyond their better judgment.   Quotes • “I was consulting for “Big Food” and also “Big Pharma”, but I feel guiltier about Big Food because they were engineering these hyper-palatable concentrations of starch and sugar and excitotoxins and salt, all engineered to hit the bliss point in the reptilian brain without giving you the nutrition to feel satisfied, which created more and more craving.” (7:50 | Dr. Glenn Livingston) • “We live in a society where we're overburdened with inputs and we're overburdened with decision-making. This tears down your willpower.” (19:20 | Dr. Glenn Livingston) • “If the emotions are the fire, then it's easier to build the fireplace so the ashes don't get out than it is to put out the fire. Most of the people in our culture think that you have to fix the emotional problems before you can stop overeating, and that's a very long journey.” (23:51 | Dr. Glenn Livingston) • “Overeating or the desire to break these rules, it really comes from the reptilian brain wanting to push your rational brain out of the way because it perceives an emergency stint.” (31:27 | Dr. Glenn Livingston) • “If you have strong cravings, stronger than other people, it's not because you have a diseased or a sick mind, it's because your mind is healthier than other people.” (50:07 | Dr. Glenn Livingston)   Links Connect with Dr. Glenn Livingston: Website: https://www.defeatyourcravings.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livingstonglenn/   Movemate Award-Winning Active Standing Board https://www.letsmovemate.com/drandrewfix Exclusive Promo Code: DRA15       15% off the price!   Flux Footwear Coupon Code: drandrewfix https://flux.rfrl.co/2g988  10% off   HYDRAGUN
