Podcasts about life you want

What if your money stopped dictating your schedule and started supporting the life you actually want to live? Joe Saul-Sehy welcomes CFP Dana Anspach of Sensible Money as special guest co-host for an episode featuring this week's mentor, Andy Hill. Andy shares how he stepped away from the corporate grind, redesigned his priorities, and built a life where family and flexibility came first. His story isn't about escaping work. It's about building a financial foundation that gives you options. Then the conversation shifts to a headline that caught everyone's attention: NASCAR driver Kyle Busch and his wife Samantha are suing their insurance company, calling the life insurance they purchased "a scam." Dana uses this case to break down one of the most misunderstood areas in personal finance: life insurance. From Indexed Universal Life (IUL) policies to knowing when insurance is a tool and when it's a distraction, she shows how clarity of goals should drive every decision and how to avoid the traps that caught even high earners like the Buschs. The episode also touches on estate planning, scams to watch out for, how young adults should think about budgeting and debt, and how to evaluate whether paying off loans or investing is the better move for your situation. It connects the dots between time freedom, smart planning, and protecting what you're building. What You'll Learn: • How to design your finances around the life you want, not just the paycheck you earn • What "owning your time" really means and how to start moving in that direction • Why your financial plan should begin with values and priorities, not products • How to think about entrepreneurship without blowing up your financial stability • What the Kyle Busch insurance lawsuit reveals about life insurance products and sales tactics • The truth about Indexed Universal Life insurance and when it may or may not make sense • How to evaluate life insurance based on goals instead of sales pitches • How estate planning protects your family and your legacy • The pros and cons of paying off loans versus investing • Budgeting principles that help young adults build strong money habits early • How to recognize and avoid financial scams (including insurance product traps) • Why celebrating progress matters just as much as setting the next goal This Episode Is For You If: • You feel like your money controls your life instead of supporting it • You want more flexibility and time freedom but don't know how to fund it • You're confused about whether life insurance products are helping or just costing you (especially after hearing about the Busch lawsuit) • You're trying to figure out the right order of financial moves (debt vs investing, insurance vs saving) • You want your financial plan to reflect your actual values, not just what you're "supposed" to do This episode is about aligning your money with your life. If you're ready to stop reacting to your finances and start using them to build more freedom, flexibility, and confidence, this one belongs at the top of your queue.

If you've been doing all the “right” manifestation work but still feel stuck, frustrated, or like nothing is landing — this episode is for you. In this conversation on A Millennial Mind, I sit down with renowned astrologer Debbie Frank to explore why manifestation often feels blocked, and how understanding timing, alignment, and your own inner patterns can change everything. We talk about divine timing, free will vs fate, and why forcing outcomes can actually create more resistance. Debbie explains how astrology isn't about prediction, but self-awareness — helping you understand when to push forward, when to pause, and how to work with your natural rhythms instead of against them. This episode is a grounding, practical reframe of manifestation that feels calm, empowering, and deeply reassuring.

As a high-achieving and self-led woman, it's time to stop using your nervous system, your to-do list, or your calendar as an excuse for why you're not living the life you say you want. In this quick and powerful episode, Monica calls out the real reason high-achieving women don't say yes to their next level—and how HER Year isn't “another program,” but the space where you build the internal and external structure to sustain your next level, not just manifest it. Inside the episode:

Success isn’t just about talent or intelligence – it’s about how we handle our emotions. Marc Brackett, founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, says emotional regulation is a skill, one that can be taught and practiced like any other. This hour, he joins us to talk about why our feelings matter, what happens when we ignore them, and how adults can get better at managing them. We’ll also hear how schools across Connecticut are helping kids build emotional intelligence from a young age.

In this episode, Emily and I are kicking off 2026 talking about fresh starts. Why we love them, why they matter, and why they don't always go the way we hope. There's something about a new year that invites us to pause, reflect, and ask what kind of people we actually want to become. I'm sharing 8 books you should read in 2026 - not as a checklist, but as tools that can help shape your thinking, your faith, and the direction of your life. Even one or two of these could make a real difference. If you're stepping into this year with hope, questions, or a desire to grow, I hope this episode will encourage you.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Energy Is Everything Series — a six-part conversation series all about protecting your energy, expanding your capacity, and building a life and business that actually feel sustainable in your body.In this opening episode, I'm joined by the brilliant and wildly honest Heather Chauvin for a raw, grounded conversation about identity fatigue, impossible standards, and the invisible ways women are bleeding energy in the name of success, motherhood, and safety.This is not a “do more, try harder” conversation. It's about reverse engineering the life you want by starting with how you want to feel, and letting that guide your choices, boundaries, and identity… even when it disrupts everything you've been taught.TOPICS & TANGENTS: • Why energy is the real currency behind success • Reverse engineering your life from how you want to feel • Identity fatigue and the cost of impossible standards • Survival mode vs. aliveness • How women enable their own exhaustion to stay safe • The hidden energy leaks in motherhood and ambition • Co-regulation, support, and learning how to be held • Why balance is a myth rooted in perfectionism • Emotional repair as a daily practice • Letting go of performative strength • Choosing embodiment over hustle • Reclaiming feminine power without bypassing realityPOINT OF THE STORY: You don't need to become someone new to create the life you want… you need to stop abandoning yourself to maintain an identity that's draining you. When you reverse engineer your choices from how you want to feel, your energy returns, your boundaries clarify, and your life begins to align without force.MENTIONED:Dying to Be a Good Mother- BookFollow Heather ChauvinInstagramEmotionally Uncomfortable PodcastThis episode sets the tone for the entire Energy Is Everything Series.

We talk about this all the time on the Ultimate Intimacy podcast — emotional intimacy and sexual intimacy go hand in hand. You can't expect a strong sex life if you're not emotionally connected first.For most people, especially many women desire doesn't start in the bedroom. It starts with feeling heard, valued, and emotionally safe. If that connection is missing, sexual intimacy often disappears right along with it.That's why when couples say, “Our intimacy isn't where we want it to be,” we usually ask them how the emotional connection is, and most the time it isn't connected either.When you focus on listening, showing appreciation, spending intentional time together, and connecting without pressure, walls come down and desire naturally begins to return.And here's the exciting part... when emotional intimacy improves, sexual intimacy often comes back stronger than ever. Couples become more open, playful, and connected, and intimacy turns into something you both look forward to again.So if you want a better intimate life, don't skip the foundation.Build emotional closeness first, and watch every part of your marriage thrive.If you haven't already, go check out the Ultimate Intimacy App in the app stores, or at ultimateintimacy.com to find "Ultimate Intimacy" in your marriage.

As we arrive at the final episode of this journey, we focus on the one tool that quietly holds all the others together purpose.Throughout this series, we explored twelve tools that can help you move closer to your goals, build better habits, and create a life that feels aligned and intentional. But without purpose, even the best tools can feel directionless.In this episode, Mind Coach Anu Krishna helps us reflect on what purpose truly means. Is it something grand or something found in small daily choices? How does purpose give us energy, reduce confusion, and bring clarity in a noisy world? And how can each of us begin discovering our purpose, starting today?As you step into 2026, we hope these twelve tools stay with you not as rules, but as gentle guides. May the coming year bring you clarity, consistency, growth, and peace.Wishing you a happy, healthy, and truly successful New Year.Expert: Anu Krishna Host/ Producer: Archita PuranikSound: Mahesh R....#TALRadioenglish#Purpose #LivingWithMeaning #NewYear2026 #PersonalGrowth #LifeCoaching #MindCoach #AnuKrishna #SelfDevelopment #IntentionalLiving #12ToolsForLife #ClarityAndGrowth #Touchalife #TALRadio

Ever wished your anger could do more than burn bridges? I dive into emotional alchemy—the practical art of turning heavy feelings into clear boundaries, grounded choices, and honest desire. Rather than chasing quick fixes or bypassing pain, we build a container where rage, grief, and fear can be felt fully, safely, and usefully. Think music rituals, movement to complete the stress cycle, and simple journalling to let the body speak before the mind explains.I share how explosive emotions often sit on top of sadness and unmet needs, and why acknowledging that softer layer is the turning point. Rage isn't a flaw; it's a loving protector saying not okay. When we honour it without letting it run the show, the charge disperses and a deeper truth emerges: what we actually want. That focus point becomes the channel for your energy, shifting attention from avoiding hurt to moving toward love, fulfilment, and aligned action.You'll learn a repeatable practice: choose a song that matches the mood, root down through breath and body, feel without fixing, move to release, then write whatever is real. Go at your capacity—some processes complete in one sitting, others unfold over weeks. The goal is steadiness, not speed. Along the way we talk nervous system regulation, shadow work, the paradox of holding anger and joy together, and how desire clarity turns chaos into momentum.If this resonates, subscribe, share the episode with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to help others find the show.

In a world that's more connected than ever, why do so many people feel aloneWhat truly makes a relationship meaningfulAnd why do the smallest moments of listening and kindness matter more than we realise.In this episode of 12 Tools For The Life You Want, Anu Krishna explained the power of human connection from deep bonds versus surface level socialising to healing broken relationships and finding strength during difficult times.Because success feels empty without connectionAnd life feels richer when we are truly seen, heard, and valued.

Today, I'm speaking with Ayelet Polonsky, a Kabbalistic Manifestation Expert. She is the Creator of The Manifestation Method and a skilled, passionate and trauma-informed facilitator in the world of manifestation and healing. She's had quite a journey to get to this point in her life — after college she was led to the Amazon jungles of Peru, then India for six years and then finally to Israel where she spent eight years studying and teaching Jewish mysticism, known as Kabbalah. Ayelet now lives on the East Coast with her husband and two children.With the development of The Manifestation Method, Ayelet synthesizes Kabbalistic wisdom and modern psychology to help individuals heal their past traumas, and transform their dreams into reality. She is a trained expert in hypnosis, trauma healing, somatic experiencing and meditation. Ayelet's approach is a harmonious blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, EFT, and Somatic Experiencing, all combined with her signature hypno-visualization techniques. Manifestation is something I've been interested in for awhile and have been wanting to explore through a Jewish lens. I've learned a little bit about it in secular spaces and in this conversation with Ayelet, we really get to the root of what Jewish manifestation actually looks like. We speak about:-Ayelet's journey to getting to where she is today doing this work-How Jewish manifestation differs from the secular interpretation and some myths about it she's correcting-Why manifestation is a lifestyle — not just a singular practice and what that looks like-Her methodology and the specific goals she helps clients achieve-The power of our words and the way our conscious and subconscious brain works to create a new reality-What true faith and bitachon really feels like-How our trauma (whether it's with a big t or small t) informs the inner work we do today and what that trauma can be used for-Creating the vessel for the things we want in our lives to actually happen-The power of rituals-Seeing miracles in our everyday lives and how to manifest more of them-The unbelievable power we can all take from the Chanukah lights and bring into our everyday lives-How she manifested her husband…and SO MUCH MORE.Ayelet just takes my questions and brings them to a whole new level with her responses. She both elevates them and takes them deeper in a way that will change how you see the world, your relationship with Hashem and how you deal with the struggles in your life.To get in touch with Ayelet, visit ayeletpolonsky.com.

Over the years, he's launched and scaled companies across education, media, software, community, and physical products—from Smart Passive Income and SwitchPod to niche websites, podcasting tools, and more recently, a Pokémon YouTube channel that pulls in 10 million views a day. What ties all of these ventures together is the way Pat builds them. Through his Lean Learning philosophy, he's able to use content to test ideas, reduce risk, and explore a wide range of opportunities while still staying super focused. In this episode, you'll learn exactly how Pat's able to start so many ventures, his approach to mastering any skill, the merger that freed up his time and allowed SPI to scale, and the viral short-form content strategy that's driving millions in both views and revenue.=   Key Takeaways 01:16 Finding the Fun That Fuels Momentum 03:41 Why Pat Abandoned Blogging 04:47 The Problem With Audio-Only Podcasts 05:30 10M Views/Day from Pokémon Short-Form 07:21 Letting Data Drive Your Content Strategy 11:46 The Mental Shift That Separates Creators Who Win 15:32 The 20% Rule Powering Pat's Side Ventures 22:14 The 12-Minute Workflow Generating $25K–$40K Videos 25:30 The Smart Acquihire That Became SPI Media 33:25 Designing Your Business Around the Life You Want 36:21 Just In Time Learning vs. Just In Case Learning 43:12 How Community 3.5x's Your Odds of Success 47:03 Micro-Mastery to 10X Results in ANYTHING 54:12 Using Voluntary Force Functions to Take Massive Action 1:03:02 Pat's Advice to New Entrepreneurs 1:03:53 What No Longer Works in Content Creation     Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/hFRAiXt4lAU    Let's Connect: Website | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | Twitter | Facebook

Growth begins in the moments we pause. Reflection isn't just about looking back — it's about looking within. It helps us understand our choices, learn from our mistakes, and uncover the strengths we often overlook.Whether it's through journaling, daily check-ins, or a few minutes of quiet, reflection sharpens our decisions, deepens our wisdom, and prepares us to set meaningful goals. Because when we reflect, we don't just revisit the past we reshape our future with intention and clarity.Find the right tool to reflect on your actions, behaviors, and habits — and transform them in the direction you choose.Expert: Anu Krishna, Mind CoachProducer/Host: Archita Puranik..#TALRadioenglish #PersonalGrowth #SelfReflection #MindsetMatters #LeadershipDevelopment #ContinuousLearning #GrowthJourney #WisdomInPractice #Touchalife #TALRadio

Many founders stay stuck in the space between yes and no, not because of timing, money, or strategy, but because of resistance disguised as logic. In this powerful solo episode, Jerome Myers speaks directly to high performers who feel called to their next chapter yet hesitate to move. He breaks down the most common objections founders use to delay meaningful growth and reveals the deeper fears beneath them—from the discomfort of pausing long enough to feel, to the fear of being truly seen without the armor of achievement.  Jerome also opens up about his own experience with the Founder's Exit Paradox and the identity unraveling that happens once success goes quiet. This episode serves as a mirror, a challenge, and an invitation to stop circling the life you want and begin stepping into it with clarity, alignment, and courage. [00:00–02:18] Sitting in the Gray Space Founders hesitate not because of time or money but because of quiet resistance Resistance dresses itself up as logic, busyness, and “reasonable” excuses The episode frames the work ahead: naming the fear so it stops running the show [02:19–04:45] The Five Surface Objections (and Their Real Meaning) “It's not the right time” really means, “I'm scared to slow down and feel” Busyness becomes a shield protecting founders from their inner truth Pretending everything is fine becomes exhausting — and unsustainable [04:46–07:02] The High Performer's Dilemma: “Will This Work for Me?” Strategy solves business problems, but it doesn't heal identity problems Founders fear inner work because it requires vulnerability The Intensive works differently than a playbook — it goes to the root [07:03–09:28] Trust, Fatigue, and the Fear of Hope “I need to talk to my advisor” often signals lack of self-trust “I need a break” reveals survival mode, not true rest The deeper fear is hoping for change and being disappointed again [09:29–12:32] The Founder's Exit Paradox Founders fear being seen without their achievements as armor Jerome shares his own unraveling after leaving his $20M division Success becomes identity — titles, applause, income, roles The question underneath everything: “Who am I without what I built?” [12:33–17:32] Choosing Your Next: The Real Invitation Speaking desires out loud dissolves guilt and activates clarityRemoving the founder mask leads to alignment, wholeness, and freedom Staying stuck is a decision — so is choosing your next chapter The Next Intensive becomes a turning point where founders finally feel alive again Key Quotes: “Vulnerability is not exposure.

Something many people don't know about me is that I'm deeply spiritual. I believe in God, and I've spent most of my life quietly trying to understand how this whole “creating our life” thing really works. A few years ago, I came across a book that opened my eyes — The Power of Awareness by Neville Goddard. One line in that book completely stopped me in my tracks and opened my eyes to how much power we actually hold when we wake up to who we really are. In this episode, I'm sharing what that realization looked like for me — how awareness changes everything, why imagination isn't fantasy but faith in motion, and how science and spirituality are finally saying the same thing. If you've ever felt like there's more to life than what you can see, this conversation will help you experience that truth in a whole new way. If this conversation spoke to you — if you're ready to take these ideas and actually live them — I'd love to invite you to my Midlife Spark Session. It's a powerful hour where we explore what you've been assuming, what beliefs are shaping your current reality, and how to re-align your awareness with the life you truly want — the one that feels clear, alive, and deeply you. Because awareness is where transformation begins. And once you see it, you can't unsee it. You don't have to hustle harder or fix yourself. You just have to come back to you, to the awareness that you are already whole, already capable, already connected. That's the real power. Book your Spark Session here.

Travel is never just about the destination — it's about what the journey makes possible. In today's episode, we explore how learning to earn and use credit card points isn't just a smart financial decision. It's a pathway to freedom, abundance, and experiences that reflect the life you actually want to live. From upgraded flights to dream hotels, points can turn everyday expenses into extraordinary opportunities. No one embodies that transformation quite like Dielle Charon. A former social worker turned seven-figure business coach for women of color entrepreneurs, Dielle has used points not only to change the way she travels, but to expand what she believes she deserves. In this conversation, we explore Dielle's shift from a scarcity mindset around money and travel to one grounded in abundance. We talk about the emotional impact of flying business class for the first time, how points became a tool for self-care, celebration, and access, and why choosing ease and luxury can be deeply supportive — not frivolous. Whether you run a business or simply want to travel with more intention and possibility, this episode offers a powerful look at what becomes available when you allow points to elevate more than just your travel plans. This conversation is rich with honesty, strategy, and inspiration — and it's about so much more than travel. It's about possibility, mindset, and unapologetically claiming ease, luxury, and joy.

Living with Intention: The Daily Habits That Build a Life You Love This week, Melissa continues the conversation from Episode 239 — The #1 Thing Standing Between You and the Life You Want — where she shared the importance of getting clear on what you want. Now, in Part Two, she goes deeper into what to do once you've found that clarity, and how to live with intention even in the middle of life's stress, chaos, and constant demands. Click here to listen to part one on Apple!  Click here to listen and read on our website! In this episode, Melissa shares insights from a workshop she recently gave to women at her church about living intentionally and managing the mental load that comes with modern life. She explains what "intentional living" really means — making choices based on your values and goals instead of defaulting to busyness or comparison — and walks through a practical exercise you can do right now: asking yourself, What do I really want? She guides listeners through a journaling activity that reveals recurring themes, hidden desires, and areas where you might need more clarity. Then, she moves into the second half of the conversation — managing stress in real life. From a day spent painting with her kids that turned chaotic to simple strategies for lowering stress hormones like dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin, Melissa shows that living intentionally doesn't mean living perfectly — it means noticing what's working and making small, conscious adjustments. She also highlights one of the most underused yet powerful tools for reducing anxiety and increasing self-awareness: journaling. Melissa shares research showing its benefits and how writing down what's in your head — no matter how messy — can be both healing and clarifying. This episode is a gentle, encouraging reminder that you don't have to overhaul your life to live more intentionally. Sometimes it's as simple as pausing, reflecting, and asking: What's one thing I can do today to move closer to the life I truly want?   LINKS: All Links Family Brand!  stan.store/familybrand familybrand.com/quiz familybrand.com/retreats.  Episode Minute By Minute: 00:00 – Welcome to Part Two of the Living with Intention series 01:00 – Why this episode stands alone but connects to clarity (Part One) 02:00 – What intentional living actually means — and what it doesn't 03:30 – Knowing what you want and living in alignment with it 05:00 – Why this question — "What do I want?" — keeps showing up 06:30 – The writing exercise: ask yourself the question seven times 08:00 – Identifying patterns and themes in your answers 09:00 – How clarity leads to alignment and purpose 10:00 – Transition: managing the mental load of daily life 11:00 – The painting story — and how "small stress" still adds up 12:30 – The four happiness chemicals and how to activate them 13:30 – Dopamine: reward yourself and celebrate small wins 14:00 – Oxytocin: connection through touch, kindness, and service 14:30 – Serotonin: stability through sun, nature, and mindfulness 15:00 – Endorphins: joy through laughter, movement, and music 16:00 – The surprising science behind journaling and stress relief 17:30 – Why journaling is powerful — and why we often avoid it 19:00 – How confronting your thoughts can lead to healing 20:00 – Creating your personal plan of action 21:00 – One small step toward more peace and less stress 22:00 – Closing encouragement: be still, do what brings you joy, and live with intention

Career alignment refers to the state in which anindividual's work harmonizes with their personal values, interests, skills, andlong-term goals. It involves ensuring that your professional life contributesto your overall well-being and personal fulfillment, rather than merely servingas a source of income. When a career is aligned with one's values, it leads toincreased engagement, job satisfaction, and a more meaningful professionaljourney. According to LinkedIn (2023), 82% of U.S. professionalsbelieve that it is important to work for a company with a culture and valuesthat align with their own. Additionally, Gallup (2025) found that 63% ofAmerican workers report that their organization provides opportunities foradvancement. However, these opportunities are not evenly distributed, as 25% ofworkers lack a clear path for career growth. Caroline Sangal is a Life-First Career Coach and the founderof Next Success.

Episode 3790: Renee Benes reminds us that building a fulfilling life starts with intention, not obligation. Through practical guidance on money management, goal-setting, and self-care, she empowers readers to stop living reactively and start crafting a life that truly feels like their own. Her message is equal parts wake-up call and roadmap for transforming dreams into daily reality. Quotes to ponder: "Create a life you want to live, not a life you have to live." "Whatever you do, don't make your life harder in order to get to a dream quicker. It never, ever pans out." "Don't spend 65 years working so hard for a dream that you are burnt out by the time you get there and are no longer able to enjoy it."
