In this thought-provoking episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte welcomes Gwen McPhail—National Board Certified Teacher and author of My Place Among Them—for a heartfelt conversation on legacy, education, and the preservation of culture through storytelling.Gwen, writing under the pen name J. Stanion, shares the powerful inspiration behind her novel, which blends family history with critical themes of resilience, cultural preservation, political systems, and indigenous identity. Together, she and Dr. Alisa explore the lasting impact of early education—especially in marginalized communities—and the urgent need for empathy, critical thinking, and alignment with personal values in today's fast-paced world.From finishing her great-grandfather's manuscript about his experience on the Pine Ridge Reservation, to advocating for education reform, Gwen emphasizes that healing from historical trauma requires storytelling, community engagement, and a rejection of judgment in favor of compassion. This episode is a call to redefine success, re-center family values, and ensure every child's learning journey is rooted in truth, history, and humanity.

In this mind-opening episode of The Impossible Life, Nick and Garrett sit down with Bryan Osborne, speaker and apologist with Answers in Genesis, to take aim at one of the most contested foundations in the Bible: Genesis 1–11.What you believe about the beginning of the world directly impacts how you understand truth, identity, morality, and the Gospel itself.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I unpacked a concept that has kept me focused, grounded, and moving forward through every high and every low: the Now What theory. It's a simple phrase with powerful implications, and I've been leaning on it more and more as I continue to build our training systems, grow the brokerage, and evolve both as a leader and business owner. ### Obsession With Progress or Obsession With Competition I found myself reflecting on how easy it is to get caught up in what others are doing how another brokerage is scaling, what agents are posting on social media, how many deals someone else just closed. That kind of comparison does nothing but drain your energy. I've been there. Hitting 300 million in sales should have felt like a celebration, but instead, I saw someone else hit a billion and suddenly my win felt like a loss. That's the trap. Every time we compare, we leak power. We trade focus for anxiety. And every moment spent obsessing over what someone else has achieved is a moment taken away from building something meaningful for ourselves. ### The Real Trigger So I stopped asking, Why are they ahead of me? and started asking, Now what am I going to do about it? That one question has reframed my entire perspective. Whether it's a team member leaving, a deal falling through, or watching someone boast about numbers that don't even match public records my work is not to prove them wrong or call them out. My job is to get back to work. Get better. Make improvements. Stay in motion. When you feel triggered by a loss, a betrayal, a comparison, a bad review ask the question that actually moves the needle. Now what? ### The Training System That Changed Everything This mindset is exactly how I built the training system we have today. It didn't come from copying anyone else. It came from frustration. From falling short. From having to record, rerecord, pivot, scrap, build again, over and over. And now? We've got the best sales per agent ratio of any major brokerage because I focused on what I could control. One video at a time. One module at a time. One consultation. One workshop. That's how it all grew. And that's how it's still growing. ### Protecting Your Energy Any time you spend your energy trying to stifle your competition, gossip about an ex staff member, or worry about someone taking your clients, you're avoiding your real work. The truth is, if a client can be taken, maybe you didn't do what was required to keep them. That's a hard truth. But it's the only one that will help you grow. The goal is not to suppress someone else's business. It's to improve yours. Obsession over your competition is energy lost. Obsession over your mission is momentum gained. ### It's Not a Race You don't need to be first. You just need to keep going. Wanting more is not the problem. Obsessing over how someone else got more is. You finally got that deal? Great. Now what are you going to do about it? You had your best month ever? Good. Now what? There is no finish line. So stop acting like you just crossed one. Keep the momentum. Keep the obsession on your progress not theirs. ### Reflect and Apply 1. Where in your life or business are you currently obsessing over someone else's success instead of focusing on your next move? 2. What trigger recently caused you to feel like you weren't doing enough? What is your Now what response to that? 3. What small, immediate action can you take today that brings the focus back to building your business? ### Notable Quotes “Every time we compare, we leak power.” “Obsession over your competition is energy lost. Obsession over your mission is momentum gained.” “The real question is never about them. It's always: Now what am I going to do about it?”   Follow A.Z.

Modern culture says equality means splitting everything 50/50.But what if that's not just inefficient—it's actually unwise? In this unapologetic episode of The Impossible Life, Nick and Garrett tackle one of their most controversial convictions yet:A clearly defined division of labor in the home isn't outdated—it's divine.Rooted in experience, principle, and biblical design, this conversation will challenge how you think about roles, parenting, identity, and the way you build your family life. If you're tired of shallow slogans and want to raise strong kids with a Kingdom vision—this one is for you.

The way we view money fundamentally shapes our business decisions and outcomes. For faith-based entrepreneurs, understanding that we don't face a money problem but a management problem transforms everything about our approach to finances.When I realized that God doesn't reward hustle but instead rewards faithful management, it completely shifted my perspective as a business owner. Luke 16:10 tells us "whoever can be trusted with little can also be trusted with very much" – a principle that has guided our company to seven-figure growth in just three years.This episode unpacks four critical pillars of financial stewardship: creating and sticking to a budget, achieving targets before their scheduled time, tracking your spending daily, and maintaining consistent cash reserves. Each practice isn't just good business sense; it's biblical wisdom applied to entrepreneurship.The story of how tracking our numbers transformed our business is particularly powerful. As a visionary, I initially resisted detailed financial tracking until a friend reminded me that I would ultimately give account to God for how I stewarded what He entrusted to me. After seven months of building our daily cash tracking system, I now review our exact financial position every morning – a practice that has revolutionized our decision-making.Ready to make your own stewardship shift?

In Episode #31 of NAPFA Nation, host Marie Swift speaks with Dan Moisand, CFP®, a prominent leader in financial planning, former chairman of the CFP Board of Standards, and principal at his wealth management firm, Moisand Fitzgerald Tamayo, LLC. Moisand reflects on his 25 years as a NAPFA member and his longstanding advocacy for the fiduciary standard. He identifies two of the profession's most significant wins: the Financial Planning Association's (FPA) successful lawsuit against the SEC in 2007, which ensured brokerage firms offering fee accounts could not sidestep the fiduciary standard, and the CFP Board's decision to require the fiduciary standard for all forms of financial advice, not just financial planning activities. While the latter has not yet resulted in major enforcement actions, Moisand believes it holds enormous potential for future consumer benefits. He emphasizes that the real progress is driven by everyday advisors who consistently act in their clients' best interests. The conversation highlights how the marketplace has evolved over the years, with consumers increasingly expecting fiduciary CFP®s as a baseline standard. Moisand notes the growing popularity of the CFP® credential, with approximately 10,000 people sitting for the exam last year, attributing this to increased public awareness and outreach efforts. The discussion also covers Moisand's recent article in Financial Advisor magazine, where he explores the distinction between being a true professional and merely selling financial products. He argues that financial planning deserves recognition as a profession on par with medicine and law and encourages advisors to reflect on their own professional identity and conduct. In a nutshell:  Landmark legal and regulatory victories have shaped the fiduciary landscape The CFP mark is now a baseline expectation for clients Business models are evolving to make fiduciary advice accessible to all Peer-driven enforcement and ongoing professionalization are key to industry credibility Financial planning is positioned to be recognized as a true helping profession Special Note: In 2023, we rebranded the NAPFA podcast with a new album cover and series title: NAPFA Nation. We are shifting our monthly episodes to bring you inspiring conversations and key insights from leaders in the Fee-Only financial planning profession. Marie Swift, Founder and CEO of Impact Communications, will continue on as host, interviewing a variety of NAPFA members and professionals. You will still be able to find on this channel the 32 Mindset Mastery episodes with respected fiduciary financial planners and allied advocates who are committed to accomplishing great things as they master their own mindset and continue to serve their clients in the best ways possible.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I dive into something we all face but rarely talk about openly—what happens when the darkness hits. When you've been betrayed, when things fall apart, when you feel like you've lost everything and the pain is just too much. It's that quiet moment where negativity creeps in and starts to control your every thought, paralyzing you and making you forget how powerful you actually are. I shared where I've been—flat on my back, both figuratively and literally, unable to get up because the weight of failure, financial struggle, and shame was too heavy. That energy is real. It strips you of your memory, your growth, your accomplishments. It makes you forget that you've already overcome so much. It turns every little thought into fear, every memory into regret. But here's the shift. That pain, that shame, those dark moments—those can be the fuel. I don't try to erase them anymore. I tap into them. Not to wallow, not to relive the suffering, but to remember that if I got through that, I can get through anything. Every one of those painful moments gave me a skill set, a lesson, a mindset that made me who I am. I use that memory now like a weapon. I remember how it felt to be broke, to feel like a failure, to be belittled. But now I say, let me show you what I'm made of. Let me show you that same energy can push me forward. This episode is a reminder that you're not broken. You're battle tested. The power of negative energy is real, but so is your ability to flip it. You've already proven you can overcome. And if you can remember that—if you can tap into that place without drowning in it—you become unstoppable. ### Reflect on This: What is a painful memory you usually try to forget—but could actually use as fuel for your next move? Are you dwelling in your past pain or using it to push yourself forward? How can you remind yourself daily of how far you've already come? ### Quotes to Remember: “That negative energy is so strong that if it could break me, it can also make me.” “You are undefeated. You're still here.” “If I can get through that, I can definitely get through this. Let me show you what I'm made of.”   Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I open up about something that we all carry but rarely stop to dissect: guilt. It's sneaky. It creeps in during the quiet moments after long work weeks, during family decisions, and when we feel stretched too thin. This episode wasn't just about a spontaneous trip to Universal Studios with my daughters. It was about understanding how guilt can distort our memories, cloud our judgment, and keep us from truly being present. But more importantly, it was about choosing what to do with that guilt right now. Over the years, I've told myself stories. That I worked too much. That I wasn't present enough. That I didn't have patience. And while I believed those things, my daughters remembered something different. They remembered the volleyball practices. They remembered Disneyland. They remembered me showing them how to edit on their iPads. And it made me realize how powerful our own stories can be and how wrong we are when we let guilt rewrite our legacy. I almost let my own guilt steal an opportunity to create a powerful memory with my daughters. I almost passed on a trip that turned into one of the best experiences we've had together. The reality is, we work hard to earn that flexibility, but if we don't take action in the present, guilt will always convince us we don't deserve it. This lesson isn't just for home it applies to business too. Guilt from not following up. Guilt from not posting. Guilt from not showing up strong for your clients. We sit in that space and call it accountability, but accountability without action is just self-punishment. You say you take responsibility but then what? What are you doing right now to change it? It's time to stop looking back at where we fell short and start doing something right here, right now. One call. One text. One post. One moment of presence. That's where expansion begins. And when you take that action now, it doesn't just shape your future. It transforms your past and your present too. Expansion grows every way, not just forward. The guilt doesn't have to weigh you down if you're willing to move. Ask Yourself What guilt have you been holding onto that's slowing down your growth or happiness? What is one action you can take today to move forward in your business or relationships? How might your story change if you stopped focusing on what you didn't do and started acting on what you can do now? Notable Quotes “We can all feel belittled by what we have. Or we can just think about what we can do right now to get a little closer to that bigger vision.” “Time doesn't necessarily mean quality. You don't have to sabotage one or the other. You can do both.” “Accountability without action is just self-punishment.”   Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

You know the feeling: rates are up, leads are down, and every day feels like a grind. You're doing the work—but you're tired, overwhelmed, and wondering: why does it feel like I'm pushing a boulder uphill?Tim Braheem sees it all the time with the originators he coaches. The truth? The real battle isn't with rates or inventory... it's the one happening between your ears.In this episode of The 360 Experience, Tim draws on his 25+ years of experience as a mortgage coach, originator, and business owner to unpack the inner game that determines whether you succeed, stall out, or burn out.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about something that's always been at the core of our success—preparation. And not just the idea of it, but what it really looks like when you execute with focus and intention. Whether you're brand new to the business or already have years under your belt, preparation will always be the key difference between the ones who succeed quickly and those who stall out. I've seen both. This week I reflect on the stories of agents who are dominating just days into the industry, and others who finally broke through after a rough season—both because they committed to preparing. The Difference Between Ready and Not Ready This week reminded me how fast things can move when the vision is clear and the effort is real. I shared the story of an agent who was just four days in and already locked in a listing appointment, followed up, secured the deal, and had everything signed. Why? Because she followed the plan. She watched the trainings. She asked questions. She relied on her life experience and put in the work. She didn't wait for me or Carla or a transaction coordinator to hold her hand. She prepared ahead of time and executed when the opportunity came. That's what real leadership looks like. Then there's the flip side. The agents who hesitate. Who sit on their hands waiting to be walked through every step. And when that happens, there's no growth. There's no confidence. There's only delay. Preparation means owning your business. Knowing where the resources are. Watching the trainings. Practicing the calls. Having the hard conversations with clients before they blow up the deal. It's Not About Experience, It's About Preparation I brought up something I've been saying a lot lately—lack of experience does not mean lack of preparation. We have agents passing their licensing exams in two weeks, others taking two years. What's the difference? Not intelligence. Not talent. It's how focused and committed they were. The effort is the same, it's just spread out for some over years instead of weeks. And this mirrors how agents get into production. Some take six months to land their first deal. Others, just six days. The key is preparation—knowing what you're doing, where to go, and who to call when it gets real. Leverage Your Past, Own Your Process We also talked about how our experiences prepare us long before we realize it. I shared how my daughter Abigail stepped up to work a booth at a real estate career expo. No hesitation. No excuses. And while she might not have had the experience, she's been in this game since she was three years old. Watching, listening, learning. Just like many of you, you've already done hard things. You've already solved big problems. That makes you ready now. It's just about applying that same mindset to this business. Stop Waiting, Start Acting This episode wasn't just for new agents either. I had a conversation with a veteran who had hit a wall, forgetting what he was made of. After a few adjustments, he's now sitting on seven deals in escrow. The difference was not more knowledge. It was remembering who he is. Preparation is not just a checklist. It's an energy. A commitment to being in control of your process and not blaming the market or the news or your circumstances. You have to move with vision. Take action with intention. Stop stalling and start preparing to execute. Reader Reflection Questions Where in your business are you waiting for someone to walk you through the steps instead of preparing ahead? How are your current actions aligned with the vision you say you want? What past experiences can you tap into right now to give you confidence to move forward? Notable Quotes “Lack of experience does not mean lack of preparation.” “It's not your buyer's fault they can't decide—it's your fault for not preparing them.” “She wasn't afraid of losing the listing. She was more committed to winning it.” Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

With a recent focus on community, Vicki explores sustainable solutions through her book Blessing the Hands That Feed Us, her podcast What Could Possibly Go Right?, and her advocacy for localism and sustainable living. https://vickirobin.com Dr. Anna Yusim is a board-certified psychiatrist, executive coach, and best-selling author who integrates spirituality and science to help over 3,000 clients—from Fortune 500 CEOs to Olympic athletes—achieve greater purpose and fulfillment. A Clinical Assistant Professor at Yale Medical School and founder of its emerging Spirituality & Mental Health Center, she draws on her global experiences across 70 countries and extensive academic training from Stanford, Yale, and NYU. https://annayusim.com Laura Tynan, founder of The Witch of Wall Street, is a financial empowerment coach and former global finance executive who helps conscious women heal their money mindset and build generational wealth through aligned investing.

Key Highlights: Intentional Living Rewires Financial Beliefs Vicki Robin explains that understanding the “life energy” behind money—a cornerstone of Your Money or Your Life—helps shift spending from mere consumption to empowered, values-driven choices. She emphasizes: “Is this purchase worth the hours of my life? Is it going to make me truly happy, is it going to take me in the direction I want to go?” This mindset fosters lasting contentment over fleeting gratification. Visualization and Feeling as Catalysts for Wealth Laura Tynan reveals why visualization techniques—when grounded in emotion—can powerfully transform your financial journey. “Visualization can be really powerful if it helps us to connect to the feeling of the reality that we want to create.” If affirmations or vision boards feel empty, tuning into genuine emotion is key. Neuroscience of Money Mindset and Manifestation Dr. Anna Yusim shares how our brains process imagined experiences similarly to real ones, making visualization and daily affirmations scientifically effective for rewiring limiting beliefs. She notes, “Gratitude is the most powerful energetic signature that we can cultivate…magnetizing abundance both emotionally and practically.” Aligning Wealth with Values for Greater Fulfillment All panelists underscore the crucial role of aligning finances with purpose to build sustainable well-being and community resilience. Vicki Robin highlights investing locally and redefining wealth: “A lot of our wealth is in the vitality of your community, in the friendships that you meet…All of these things are wealth building.” Call-to-Action Here's your call to action for this week: Take 10 minutes to write a “money story.” What early experiences shaped how you feel about money today? What beliefs might be holding you back—and what new beliefs do you want to adopt instead? This simple reflection can open the door to clarity and confidence.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery… I reflect on a powerful moment that unfolded on Camelback Mountain—me, surrounded by 25 people who are all fighting for something greater. That climb wasn't just a hike. It was a metaphor for what this life is really about: choosing the hard things, getting uncomfortable, and proving to yourself that you can handle more. Camelback is no joke. You feel it in your legs, your lungs, your thoughts. But it teaches you—if you're willing to pay attention. Just like this business. Just like this life. I've been doing this for 21 years. That's 21 years of doubt, resistance, setbacks, and the heavy weight of comparison. There were days when I questioned if anything would ever work. Times I looked at others and felt like I was falling behind. And even today, when I post success or share a win, I know some people get triggered. One guy even commented, “Y'all too much new money. Quit showboating.” And I get it. But here's what he—and maybe others—don't understand: this is new money. Not inherited. Not luck. I wasn't handed tools or a roadmap. I had to build all of it from scratch. And what you see now? That's the result of sacrifice, consistency, and refusing to play the victim. I used to live in survival mode—where a $50 cable bill felt like the end of the world. And I've watched people give up on big dreams over something like a $75 office fee. That's not a money problem. That's a mindset problem. And I had to crush those patterns to become who I am today. A journal entry from 2018 reminded me just how far I've come. I was overwhelmed. Depressed. Losing agents. Losing momentum. I wrote, “You want good? It's not easy. You want more? It's not easy. You want success? It's not easy.” But I kept showing up. I changed my thoughts, and with that, I changed my reality. So if you're in a moment where you feel behind, not good enough, not smart enough—hear me: you're not stuck. You're not broken. You just have to take that next step, even if it's small. Even if it's scary. And if your growth is triggering people around you? That's okay. Your purpose is louder than their opinions. Let them talk. You keep moving.

(00:00) Golf Discussion With Joe Bosco This chapter takes a fascinating look at the mental and emotional aspects of golf with special guest Joe Bosco, a respected expert in human performance. We discuss how the mind can both enhance and inhibit physical performance on the golf course, emphasizing the importance of mental control and emotional management. Joe shares insights into how golfers can improve by integrating mental strategies with physical skills, transforming them into more complete players. We explore scenarios that test a golfer's mental resilience, like facing a challenging par three over water, and highlight the common tendency for golfers to get stuck in their heads, focusing too much on mechanics rather than trusting their skills. Through this engaging conversation, we aim to help golfers overcome mental obstacles and enhance their performance by aligning their mind and body. (06:57) Navigating Parental Pressure in Junior Golf This chapter addresses the pressing issue of parental pressure in youth sports, particularly in junior golf. We explore the detrimental effects of parents who hover over their children, pushing them to perform for reasons tied to parental pride rather than the child's love for the game. Discussing personal experiences and observations, we highlight the shift from a time when young athletes played more independently to the current landscape where children often face burnout from external pressures. The conversation touches on the mental and emotional hurdles young athletes encounter, exacerbated by parental involvement and social media influences, and stresses the importance of allowing children to develop their skills and passion independently. (15:43) Mental Game in Junior Golf This chapter explores the misconceptions around perfectionism in golf, particularly for young players and their parents. I share an anecdote about an eighth-grade golfer and his parents, who have a skewed perspective due to watching highlight reels on TV, thinking professional golfers like Tiger Woods never make mistakes. By showing them PGA Tour bloopers, I challenge this perception, highlighting the reality that even top golfers miss shots. We discuss how parents, especially those unfamiliar with golf, may place unrealistic expectations on their children, drawing parallels with other sports like baseball, where failure is more accepted. I also touch on strategies for improving golf performance, referencing Joe's book "Real Golf." A key method is the self-scramble, where players hit multiple shots and choose the best one, fostering self-coaching and adaptability, essential skills in golf due to its nature of constant adjustments. (27:39) Visualization Training for Golf Performance This chapter explores the transformative power of an app designed to enhance golfers' performance by focusing on mental conditioning and visualization techniques. We discuss the importance of helping both parents and young golfers navigate the pressures of the sport, while also highlighting the app's benefits for adult players like John. The conversation touches on the app's integration of hypnotherapy elements, which aim to retrain players' responses to pressure situations, ultimately leading to improved performance. Jeff's insights on reducing pressure and fostering positivity through strategies like not keeping score but counting good shots are emphasized. A success story is shared about a young golfer who, through the app's training modules and recordings, significantly improved his ability to visualize and recall details from his games, impressing even his mother with his progress. (32:25) Mastering Mental Performance in Golf This chapter focuses on the power of visualization in enhancing golf performance and overall human potential. We explore the concept of "pre-living," which goes beyond traditional visualization by incorporating all senses and emotions to vividly imagine and rehearse future actions. Jeff Smith, a top 100 golf instructor, and Joe Bosco, a mental performance expert, discuss how this technique can help golfers of all levels by fostering a positive mindset and focusing on constructive thoughts. We also introduce Joe Bosco's newly launched app, Real Mental Golf, available in the Apple Store, which offers tools and content to support mental training for golf and life. Through engaging community features and resources, users can strengthen their focus and concentration, overcoming negative spirals to enhance performance on and off the golf course. (37:48) Mindset Mastery in Golf Coaching This chapter focuses on the significance of mental coaching in golf and how leveraging positive thoughts can enhance performance. We explore the idea of "give credit and steal shamelessly," emphasizing the value of being a transmitter of good ideas to foster personal growth and enjoyment in the game. Highlighting contributions from renowned mental coaches like Dr. Bob Rotella and Brett McCabe, the discussion underscores the importance of mindset in both individual and competitive play. By focusing on positive outcomes, such as counting good shots, golfers can shift their mindset to improve performance and enjoy the game more. A personal anecdote about helping a young player overcome the pressures of competitive golf illustrates how the right mental approach can transform one's experience. (43:05) Fascination in Golf Mindset Training This chapter focuses on cultivating a positive mindset on the golf course by encouraging players to embrace every shot, whether good or bad, with the phrase "Isn't that fascinating?" We explore how holding one's finish and maintaining balance while acknowledging the result can help take the pressure off, turning the game into an enjoyable learning experience. I share insights from working with corporate groups, where introducing this perspective leads to laughter and relaxation, even among CEOs. By reminding ourselves that golf is a game meant for fun and learning, we can enhance our performance without being bogged down by unrealistic expectations. This approach allows us to learn more effectively by focusing on enjoyment rather than self-criticism.

We explore the idea of "give credit and steal shamelessly," emphasizing the value of being a transmitter of good ideas to foster personal growth and enjoyment in the game. Highlighting contributions from renowned mental coaches like Dr. Bob Rotella and Brett McCabe, the discussion underscores the importance of mindset in both individual and competitive play. By focusing on positive outcomes, such as counting good shots, golfers can shift their mindset to improve performance and enjoy the game more. A personal anecdote about helping a young player overcome the pressures of competitive golf illustrates how the right mental approach can transform one's experience. (43:05) Fascination in Golf Mindset Training This chapter focuses on cultivating a positive mindset on the golf course by encouraging players to embrace every shot, whether good or bad, with the phrase "Isn't that fascinating?" We explore how holding one's finish and maintaining balance while acknowledging the result can help take the pressure off, turning the game into an enjoyable learning experience. I share insights from working with corporate groups, where introducing this perspective leads to laughter and relaxation, even among CEOs. By reminding ourselves that golf is a game meant for fun and learning, we can enhance our performance without being bogged down by unrealistic expectations. This approach allows us to learn more effectively by focusing on enjoyment rather than self-criticism.
