Podcasts about living with purpose

Do you ever feel like you're stuck in autopilot mode, running through the motions without really asking if you're living the life you truly want? Most of us have at least one habit that feels out of alignment, whether it's scrolling at night, overindulging, or staying in a draining job. We judge ourselves harshly, wondering why we can't break free. But what if these habits are not the problem? What if, instead, they're signals that point to something deeper?   In this episode, I offer a new perspective on habits, especially those we label as "bad." Instead of seeing them as flaws to be fixed, I invite you to understand the deeper, often protective reasons behind them. When we approach our habits with curiosity and compassion, we start to recognize that everything we do makes sense when viewed in the context of our life experiences and what we've been taught to value.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/186

Life is going sideways. You're snapping at your people, overthinking, doom scrolling, or eating all the snacks. You know things aren't going well, but it feels like you just can't stop, and you can't get out of the pattern. The momentum of these moments can feel impossible to interrupt, even when you're fully aware that what you're doing isn't working.   In this episode, I'm sharing the neuroscience behind why we get stuck in these reactive patterns and how our brain's survival mode takes over when we're stressed. Through a simple three-step process, you can interrupt the stress spiral and access more choice. The key isn't waiting for the perfect moment or overhauling everything; it's about creating what I call "one-degree shifts."   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/185

Mathew Knowles is a visionary entrepreneur, renowned music executive, and esteemed educator best known for his instrumental role in launching and managing the careers of Destiny's Child and Beyoncé. As a third-generation entrepreneur with a background in corporate diagnostic imaging and technology sales, Mathew's expertise spans talent development, global brand building, and health advocacy. A passionate advocate for wellness and cancer prevention—himself a male breast cancer survivor—he champions early detection and genetic awareness, while consistently empowering others with his decades of experience, adaptability, and commitment to leadership and education. Takeaways: The Power of Passion and Consistency: Mathew credits his enduring success to a relentless passion for his work, emphasizing that passion—paired with strong work ethic and consistency—fuels greatness and allows leaders to stay relevant across changing times and industries. The Importance of Early Detection: Drawing from his cancer survivor journey and background in diagnostic imaging, Mathew underscores the lifesaving value of early health screenings and genetic testing, especially within communities of color, advocating for a proactive approach over a reactive one. Brand Building Beyond the Surface: Mathew details his branding philosophy, explaining that both individuals and businesses must see themselves as brands, and that successful brands convey their value not just through words but through optics, actions, and strategic messaging. Sound Bites: “We are all individually as well as in our corporate careers as well as in entrepreneurship, we are a brand. The moment we walk outside the door, we're messaging to the world.” “Passion and work ethics go together like a glove. When you live your passion, you never work—you work when you have a job.” “Early detection is the key. For something that could take 30 minutes or two hours of your day…it can determine if you're going to be in one of those stages or if you're at risk.” Connect & Discover Mathew: Event Link: Touch4Life Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrmathewknowles/?hl=en Website: https://www.mathewknowles.com/ X: https://x.com/mathewknowles?lang=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mrmathewknowles/

Does anxiety make you feel like there is something wrong with you? It can feel uncomfortable, overpowering, something to manage or medicate away. We've been taught to see it as a flaw, a weakness, something broken that needs fixing. But treating anxiety as an adversary might be exactly what's making it worse.   In this episode, I'm exploring a radically different approach to anxiety—one that sees it not as something wrong with you, but as a sophisticated signal system trying to help. I share how anxiety functions like a check engine light or cybersecurity system, alerting you to threats to your physical, emotional, relational, or financial well-being. Through practical examples and a simple outside-inside approach, you'll discover how to decode what your anxiety is actually signaling.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/184

What would you do if you were told, at just 23, that you would almost certainly develop dementia and lose your life within 10 –15 years?This week on The Runna Podcast, we're joined by Jordan Adams, co-founder of The FTD Brothers, who opens up about his extraordinary journey from teenage caregiver to record-breaking fundraiser and endurance runner.After his mum was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia at just 47, Jordan became her primary carer through the final years of her life. At 23, he took the genetic test himself and learned he carries the same rare gene mutation. Faced with a terminal diagnosis, Jordan decided not to give up, but to use it as his ‘license to live'. In this deeply moving and powerful conversation, we unpack:

Send us a textIn this authentic and motivating episode, Joey Pinz sits down with Marquel McDowell to talk about bouncing back, showing up, and doing the work that matters.Marquel reflects on his rocky start in the MSP world—where poor culture and zero support nearly pushed him out of the industry. Fast-forward to today, and he's thriving at an MSP that values him, surrounded by a community that feels like home. From Roost Flow to GeekCon, Marquel shares how automation sparked his curiosity, how community helped him grow, and why data—not gut—guides his decisions.He also opens up about fatherhood, the mental benefits of early gym sessions, and the subtle but vital difference between managers and true leaders. With humor and humility, Marquel reminds us that success isn't about perfection—it's about effort, energy, and loving the process.

Do you feel like acknowledging your struggles will make them worse, or that it means you're weak or indulgent? Many of us have been taught to push through challenges, minimize what we're feeling, and judge ourselves for reacting in normal, human ways. But this mindset keeps us from fully understanding why we're struggling in the first place.   In this episode, I explore why validation is one of the most powerful tools for lasting change. Validation is simply the act of recognizing what's real, legitimate, and understandable about our experience. It's about acknowledging what is true in the moment without judgment. When we validate our emotions instead of dismissing them, we create the clarity, confidence, creativity, and inner strength needed to make meaningful shifts.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/183

Have you ever tried to “think your way” into feeling better, only to feel stuck in the same patterns? It's easy to fall into the belief that changing our thoughts will automatically change our emotions and habits. But what if the solution isn't about forcing yourself to think better thoughts? What if it's about understanding emotions in a deeper, more compassionate way?   In this episode, I revisit the ideas I first shared on an early episode of the podcast about how to feel better. While I once believed that changing our thoughts was the key to lasting change, I now realize it's only part of the equation. By shifting from trying to manage your feelings to understanding and relating to them, you can create the lasting changes you've been seeking.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/182

Have you ever tried to change by simply thinking a new thought, only to feel frustrated when the change doesn't happen as easily as promised? The idea that if you just change your thoughts, you can change your life has been a cornerstone of personal development for years. But what if it's not the whole story?   In this episode, I'm revisiting a concept from an early episode, where I taught "thinking a new thought" as the key to change. While this cognitive behavioral approach helped many of my clients, I now realize how incomplete it is. Our experience is shaped by much more than our thoughts. It's influenced by our nervous system, memories, trauma, and even cultural systems. I'll explain why thought work is useful but not enough, and why real change involves understanding the deeper layers beneath our thoughts.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/181

Have you ever received a compliment or acknowledged a success, only to immediately deflect or downplay it? Or perhaps you've accomplished something meaningful but instead of feeling proud, you start to focus on what could have been better? This tendency to minimize our strengths and dismiss our progress can be so automatic that we don't even realize we're doing it.   In this episode, I explore why we minimize ourselves and how to relate to this habit differently. What I once saw as just a bad mental habit to fix, I now understand as a protective strategy—a part of us trying to keep us safe from vulnerability, judgment, or failure. Through the lens of Internal Family Systems, embodiment, and nervous system regulation, I'll show you how this tendency serves a purpose and how we can start to shift it.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/180

Living With Purpose and Power: Create Your Guiding Stars and Live Your Ultimate lifePeople talk all the time about finding a life purpose. Most never really feel they have a handle on what that is. It seems to be an imaginary state where, every day, you know who you are, what you are about, what to do, and feel excitedly engaged in your purpose.Perhaps, like you, I never knew what my purpose was. I had some vague ideas about what I was “supposed to do,” but no big purpose that created any fire in the belly.We all want to matter and have a big impact. We all want to have abundance. We deeply desire to love and be loved. We seek experiences we remember and treasure. We want deep and meaningful relationships. With all this wanting, most don't really take the yearning to ground and create the life they desire.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

Have you ever been so angry about something, voiced your concerns, advocated for a solution, maybe even cried over it, only to have nothing change? The situation remains the same, the person doesn't budge, and your anger lingers, leaving you stuck. What now? In this episode, I explore the exhaustion that comes when we're angry about something that won't shift.   You'll discover why anger becomes exhausting when there's no external resolution, what emotions typically hide beneath it, and how to redefine resolution as an internal process rather than an external outcome. You'll also learn practical ways to work with your anger so you can continue advocating for what matters without being undone by what you can't control.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/179

Have you ever noticed a behavior or pattern that you know you should change, but you just can't seem to? Whether it's scrolling aimlessly on your phone or saying yes to commitments you don't want, that moment of recognition is where change begins. But what if that moment of awareness, even without immediate change, is more powerful than you think?   In this episode, I revisit one of the foundational concepts in behavior change: awareness precedes change. While this idea was introduced in an early episode, my understanding has evolved significantly. You'll learn practical ways to expand your awareness beyond just cognitive observation, including a simple practice you can use anytime.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/178

For natural-born fixers and problem solvers, the instinct to tackle every challenge head-on is deeply ingrained. Whether facing procrastination, overwhelm, or late-night scrolling habits, the immediate response is often to search for a solution.   In this episode, I explore why the concept of "fixing yourself" may be counterproductive when it comes to creating lasting change.

Learned that sales tactics differ between products—urgency pressure may work for cable, not for homes. Paid for mentorship after realizing trial-and-error was too costly and time-consuming. Painless Flipping and Coaching Philosophy Teaches students by reviewing live deals, helping them qualify leads, and even partnering on closings. Emulates an apprenticeship model: direct feedback, ongoing support, and real deal experience. Rejects the passive “info-only” coaching model in favor of outcome-driven partnerships. Living With Purpose, Not Pressure No longer driven by money—prioritizes time with family and coaching a handful of serious clients. Believes success is defined by clarity and self-awareness, not vanity metrics or hustle culture. Coaches students to align investing strategy with lifestyle goals from day one.    

Do you reflect on your experiences with self-criticism? In this episode, I revisit a powerful narrative technique called the "Once-Upon-a-Time" technique that helps you gain perspective on challenging situations and cultivate self-compassion. This two-part reflective practice transforms how you view your experiences by allowing you to step back and observe yourself through the lens of a neutral observer.   The technique involves writing about a meaningful experience twice - first from your personal perspective, and then rewriting it as if you're an anthropologist studying someone else's story. Through this process, you discover hidden thought patterns and create space for a more balanced, compassionate view of yourself and your actions.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/173

Why do I know exactly what to do but still don't do it? This frustrating disconnect between intellectual understanding and actual behavior isn't a sign of weakness or laziness. It's a common human experience that has logical explanations beneath the surface.   In this episode, I explore the knowing-doing gap – that puzzling space where we intellectually understand what would help us, but can't seem to follow through.

Do you feel like your urges seem to have a mind of their own? Those compelling impulses to check your phone, eat something sweet, or pour another glass of wine often feel like unwelcome intruders in our carefully planned lives. However, urges aren't problems to fix—they're messengers trying to communicate something important.   I'll share a powerful metaphor that changed how I understand urges, along with practical prompts to help you decode what your urges are really trying to tell you. By approaching these impulses with curiosity instead of judgment, you can transform your relationship with them and access deeper self-knowledge. When you understand what drives your urges, you gain the freedom to choose how you respond to them.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/171

Do you try to fix or suppress your anger, and feel guilty if you can't? Many of us have been taught to see anger as shameful, unprofessional, or even dangerous. As a result, we bottle it up, push it down, and try to ignore it.

I offer three powerful prompts to help you relate to your anger differently, allowing you to rebuild inner trust and reconnect with your authentic self without fear of explosive expression.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/170
