Innovation doesn't suffer from a lack of talent — it suffers from a lack of access.In Part 1 of this powerful two-part conversation, Dr. Alisa sits down with Race to Innovation co-authors Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen to unpack what they call America's innovation deficit — and why unlocking overlooked potential is not just a moral imperative, but an economic one.This episode dives deep into the hidden history of Black entrepreneurship, the mindset shifts required to recognize undervalued opportunities, and the underestimated role of enclaves — communities, networks, and institutions that quietly fuel innovation when mainstream systems fall short.You'll hear how innovation has always existed in marginalized communities, why it has often gone unseen, and what leaders, investors, and entrepreneurs must do differently if they want to build sustainable, scalable impact.This is not theory. This is strategy. And it sets the foundation for the ownership, legacy, and acceleration conversation coming in Part 2.Learn more about Race to Innovation: Unleashing the Power of Entrepreneurship for Everyone and connect with co-authors Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen.Explore the book, the research, and the ideas behind inclusive entrepreneurship and innovation: 

Winning in life isn't about luck, hype, or raw talent. It's about understanding and applying the right formula. In this episode, Garrett and Nick break down what they call The Winning Formula: a principled, repeatable framework that explains why some people consistently produce results while others stay stuck no matter how hard they try. You'll learn why winning always starts with right aim, clarity of purpose rooted in God's design. It's then followed by right execution, the discipline of doing the right things consistently at a high level. Drawing from Scripture, military experience, business leadership, and real-life examples, this episode shows why consistency builds trust, why preparation always precedes opportunity, and why most people quit not because they can't win, but because they don't believe they're meant to. Finally, Garrett and Nick unpack the often-overlooked multiplier in the formula: alignment. Alignment doesn't add power, it removes friction. Whether in marriage, business, faith, or leadership, misalignment silently drains momentum and sabotages outcomes. If you want to stop guessing, stop drifting, and start winning in a way that honors God and fulfills your purpose, this episode gives you the framework to do exactly that.Join a group of likeminded Impossible Life listeners in our FREE Skool community by clicking here.Sign up for the 2026 New Year's Day Ice Bath event hereGet the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereIf you're a man that wants real accountability and training to be a leader, click here.Level up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I talk about momentum, certainty, and why the next level of growth always demands a higher standard from us. As we head into a new year, I can feel it clearly. This organization is not slowing down. We are just getting started. After years of grit, hard decisions, and building when it was uncomfortable, everything is beginning to align. And that alignment comes from one thing above all else. Internal certainty. Over the last decade, I have learned that confidence does not come from positive thinking or hoping things work out. It comes from conditioning yourself to win. Showing up for the small commitments. Executing on what you said you would do. Setting targets and hitting them over and over again. That repetition creates belief. And belief creates momentum. When obstacles show up, and they always do, certainty keeps you grounded because you know it is only a matter of time before you figure it out. As an organization, we are very different than we were five years ago. The systems are sharper. The execution is faster. The scale is bigger. But the core has never changed. The belief system. The faith. The work ethic. What has changed is the number of people willing to operate at that level together. When you surround yourself with individuals who show up regardless of how they feel, momentum multiplies. Wins stack faster. Growth accelerates. And suddenly what once felt impossible becomes the next logical step. Opening a new office is not about convenience or expansion for the sake of expansion. It is a declaration. It is a statement that we are here to build something lasting. That we are willing to take on more responsibility, more pressure, and more challenges because that is what growth requires. I know there will be stress. I know there will be moments where it feels heavy. But I also know that every new standard feels foreign at first. And if you stay consistent, clarity always follows. What I want people to understand is this. Growth is never about becoming someone else. It is about deciding who you are and refusing to shrink back. When you stop challenging yourself, when you choose comfort over progress, motivation fades. The work slows down. And before you know it, you are watching others pass you by. That feeling is far worse than any challenge that comes from going all in. There is a cost to action, but there is a bigger cost to doing nothing. If something is on your heart and soul, and you have done the work to build the foundation, you owe it to yourself and your family to move forward. Not from emotion. Not from pressure. But from certainty. Certainty that you will not quit. Certainty that you will figure it out. Certainty that this is who you are. As we step into what is next, I want people to take an honest look at the environment around them. The support. The leadership. The access. This is not common. And it is not accidental. It is built by people who refuse to slow down, who hold the line, and who continue to show up even when it would be easier not to. That is what creates something special. And that is what makes the next chapter inevitable. Reader Reflection Questions Where in your life or business are you playing it safe instead of stepping into the next standard you know you are capable of What daily commitments are you either honoring or avoiding that are shaping your level of certainty If you truly decided that this is who you are now, what decision would you stop postponing Notable Quotes "Internal certainty comes from conditioning yourself to win on a consistent basis." "There is a bigger cost to doing nothing than there is to taking the risk." "This is not about who I want to become. This is who I am." Follow A.Z.

Your beliefs are shaping your life far more than your circumstances ever will. In this episode, Garrett and Nick break down how your internal belief system is formed, why most people never challenge it, and how hidden belief patterns quietly limit your potential as a man of God. If you've ever wondered why you keep running into the same walls in relationships, work, or personal growth, this conversation uncovers the roots beneath the surface.You'll learn the simple but powerful formula behind belief formation, how unregulated emotions hijack your thinking, and why acting on truth (not feelings) is the only path to lasting change. Garrett unpacks three of the most common destructive beliefs men carry (“I'm powerless,” “I must perform to be loved,” and “Life should be fair”) and shows you how to replace them with strong, biblical foundations that actually produce transformation. This episode is a blueprint for renewing your mind: regulating emotions, identifying false narratives, and intentionally walking out the beliefs God calls you to hold. If you want to become the man you were designed to be, it starts by rewriting the beliefs that shape everything you do.

In this powerful episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Kyle Anthony Trautmann, a neuroscience-based transformation expert whose life is living proof that real change is possible—no matter how deep the fall.After surviving 44 overdoses and a near-fatal brain injury, Kyle rebuilt his mind, identity, and purpose. Today, he has helped over 4,000 people break free from burnout, limiting beliefs, and identity loops using a science-backed approach rooted in Energy Literacy and Cognitive Recalibration—without spiritual bypassing or surface-level motivation.As the founder of High Vibe Holonomics and the upcoming Holonomic Institute (launching July 2025), Kyle blends cutting-edge neuroscience with ancient healing principles to create sustainable, measurable transformation. His work has produced a 94% close rate and generated $46,000 from a single podcast appearance, proving that authenticity and alignment outperform hustle and hype.In this episode, Kyle and Dr. Alisa unpack:Why burnout isn't a failure—it's a neurological signalHow belief systems are formed (and how to recalibrate them)The danger of spiritual bypassing in personal developmentWhat real, lasting transformation actually requiresHow trauma can become purpose when healing is done correctlyThis conversation is raw, grounded, and deeply practical—especially for high-achievers, entrepreneurs, and purpose-driven professionals who are ready to stop surviving and start transforming.

In this powerful, no-fluff conversation, Dr. Alisa dives into a truth most entrepreneurs try to avoid: your business will never outgrow your mindset.This episode unpacks why branding is not about logos, colors, or aesthetics—but about identity, alignment, and ownership. When leaders skip the inner work, the business eventually stalls. When identity is clear, influence compounds.You'll hear real talk about:Why consistency—not motivation—is the real differentiatorHow entrepreneurs sabotage growth by expecting success to be easyThe mindset shift required to stop outsourcing responsibility for resultsWhy brand evolution must start at the identity level, not the surface levelHow value creation, service, and profit must coexist for sustainable impactThis episode is for founders, leaders, and creators who are done chasing shortcuts and ready to build something that lasts—from the inside out.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I take a moment to reflect on the powerful lessons learned from witnessing a marathon a true test of endurance, not just physically but mentally and emotionally. This wasn't just any marathon; it was a moment of transformation for so many people, a reminder that sometimes life requires us to push through pain and discomfort to discover what we're truly capable of. Over the weekend, I had the privilege of seeing many of our agents and their loved ones cross the finish line of a 26-mile marathon. These individuals willingly chose to endure the physical, mental, and emotional grind of this challenge. To me, it wasn't about the race itself but about what happened in the process. Watching them struggle through the miles, yet still smile despite the pain, was a beautiful display of human resilience. As I joined them, offering words of encouragement along the way, I couldn't help but reflect on my own experiences with pushing my own limits. I've been there, going through moments of deep struggle whether climbing Camelback Mountain or surviving an Ironman 70.3 triathlon. Each of these challenges, no matter how tough, reminds me of something crucial: that life isn't about avoiding hardship, but about leaning into it to grow. The True Value of Struggle It's easy to look at accomplishments as mere checkmarks on a list. But completing a marathon or any tough challenge isn't about the finish line itself; it's about who you become in the process. The real lesson isn't in crossing the line but in what you do after that. What's next? What will you create from the lessons you've learned? This marathon wasn't the end of the journey for these agents. It was just a checkpoint, a milestone that will propel them to greater things in both their personal and professional lives. After all, when you push beyond your limits, it's hard to stay the same. It's not about chasing highs or accolades. It's about developing the discipline to continue growing every day, beyond the big events, beyond the visible moments of success. For many of our agents, this marathon was more than just a race. It was a stepping stone a reminder that in life, the pain we feel in the moment can lead to long-term transformation. The same applies to our everyday struggles, whether in business, relationships, or personal growth. Life will always challenge us, but it's through overcoming those challenges that we discover the depths of our potential. Reflecting on Life's Journey When we push ourselves, we often surprise ourselves. What was once painful becomes something we look back on with pride. In watching others cross that finish line, I was reminded that each of us has a unique capacity for resilience. Life doesn't get easier, but it becomes more meaningful when we embrace the discomfort, learn from it, and use it to raise our own standards. We have to keep pushing. There's no such thing as the "best days" being behind us. Each day is a new opportunity to expand, to grow, and to build on the foundation we've laid. The marathon didn't define our agents; it merely highlighted what they're capable of and how much more they have inside them. And that, to me, is the essence of life. Conclusion So, what happens after the race? That's the real question. As the finish lines fade and the excitement dies down, the work continues. Life doesn't stop at the big victories. It's what we do next that shapes who we truly are. And for all the individuals who completed this marathon, I'm excited to see where this challenge takes them. Because it's never just about running the race. It's about what you do with the strength you gain once it's over. Reader Engagement Questions Have you ever pushed yourself beyond what you thought was possible? How did that experience shape you? What's a challenge you're facing in your life right now that could push your limits? How can you use this as an opportunity for growth? How do you stay motivated after achieving a big goal? How do you ensure that you continue to grow once the excitement fades? Notable Quotes: "It's not just about the finish line. It's about what happens after you cross it, about what you do with what you've learned." "When you push beyond your limits, it's hard to stay the same. You have to intentionally trip yourself up to go backwards." "The marathon wasn't the end of the journey. It was a checkpoint a new standard of what is possible." Follow A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery I found myself reflecting on how much can shift in a single weekend. What started as a quick one day trip to see a UFC fight with my daughters turned into a reminder of why I do what I do and why the pressure I carry matters. Being in that arena, watching my girls take it all in, seeing their excitement, their curiosity, and their joy brought me right back to when they were little and would sit next to me watching fights on television. Those were our moments. And now to experience it at this level with them reminding me of our past and showing me what is possible in our future felt powerful. That moment became the backdrop for what hit me on Monday morning. The anxiety. The pressure. The feeling that everything I have built could fall apart in a single moment. It is a feeling I know well, and one that most business owners know too. It shows up even when your life feels like it is firing on all cylinders. It shows up even when everything is going right. And it hit me hard. It was one of those mornings where the weight felt heavier than usual, and even though I pushed through, I had to acknowledge that it was real. What I know now is that this feeling never fully goes away. It is part of the territory when you are building something meaningful. It is part of being a small business owner, a leader, a provider, a person with visions that reach far beyond where you stand today. The fear and anxiety are not signs that something is wrong. They are reminders that growth requires courage. They are reminders that expansion always demands more from you than the last season did. So I journaled, I prayed, I meditated, and I pushed my morning meeting back. Not to avoid it, but to acknowledge it and move through it. Because as uncomfortable as it is, it does not stop me. In fact, it forces me to move. The effort is what makes all the difference. Some days the effort flows effortlessly, and other days it drags. The point is that I keep showing up. What shifted everything for me was hearing Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, speak openly about waking up with fear every single day. He talked about knowing that he must face it head on and take action anyway. Here is a man leading one of the most successful companies in history, speaking the same language that so many of us whisper to ourselves in silence. That interview hit me hard. It reminded me that none of us are broken for feeling fear. We are human. And the people who rise are the ones who continue to move despite it. And it reminded me of why I never let myself forget the lowest points of my life. The years where I felt like I failed my family. Where I felt less than. Where I struggled to see any progress at all. I keep those memories close not because they define me, but because they drive me. They remind me that I never want to go back. They keep me sharp. They keep me aware. They keep me grateful for the chance to lead, to grow, and to build. Everything we experience is part of a never ending story. The fear. The doubt. The breakthroughs. The wins. The losses. It all plays a role in shaping who we are and who we are becoming. And even though it is uncomfortable, I now understand that these feelings are gifts. They create the environment that forces us to expand and forces us to pay attention. They create the space where we learn to respond instead of collapse. As we approach the new year, many people treat December 31 as the finish line and January 1 as the beginning. But it is not. Life and business do not reset. They continue. Your momentum does not disappear because the calendar flips. Your fear does not disappear either. But neither does your grit. Neither does your ability to rise. And when you consistently take the right actions, the results always follow. I believe 2026 is going to require more from all of us. More courage. More effort. More discipline. More vision. And while that is intimidating, it is also exciting. Because everything I have ever wanted has always been on the other side of the unknown. And this next season is no different. The anxiety I felt this morning is slowly shifting into excitement, because I know what we have built, and I know what we can create when we move with purpose. Every time I put my effort into something, I get what I want. That has always been true. And I am leaning into that once again. It is time to rise into the next level of who we are becoming. Reader Reflection Questions Where in your life are you allowing fear or anxiety to slow your momentum instead of using it as a signal to take action What memories or past struggles do you need to revisit so you can use them as fuel rather than as anchors How can you shift your current pressure into purpose and use it to build the next version of your life or business Notable Quotes Everything has a beginning point and a storyline of what it is you want out of every situation The only way to resolve this is through sheer effort and taking action I will never forget how I felt during my hardest moments because those memories keep me sharp and keep me moving Follow A.Z.

In this powerful shortcast of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett and Nick expose one of the most dangerous forces shaping modern men: passivity. Drawing from Scripture, real leadership experience, and hard-earned battlefield lessons, they dismantle the seven lies that keep men stuck, ineffective, and spiritually asleep.Modern culture celebrates “go with the flow” attitudes, conflict avoidance, and emotional softness — but none of that looks like Jesus. Garrett reminds us that Christ was never passive. He confronted lies, protected truth, and led with courage. Real masculinity creates strength, protection, and flourishing — not weakness or drift. Inside this episode, you'll discover: The Top 7 Passive Lies Men Believe Each lie is unpacked with practical examples and Biblical clarity:“I'm just being patient.” Learn the difference between godly patience and spiritual laziness.“I don't want to make things worse.” How fear of conflict quietly destroys families, marriages, and leadership.“I'm just laid back.” Why “laid back” can actually be a denial of responsibility.“It's not a big deal.” The massive danger of minimizing problems.“I don't feel motivated.” How children follow feelings — men follow truth.“I don't want to be controlling.” Why real leadership is invitation, not domination.“If God wants it to change, He'll change it.” One of the most damaging forms of spiritual passivity.Sign up for the 2026 New Year's Day Ice Bath event hereGet the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereIf you're a man that wants real accountability and training to be a leader, click here.Level up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I walk through a simple weekend that turned into a powerful reminder about standards, responsibility, and what it really means to live with ethics in your business and in your life. I talk about family time, climbing Camelback, and getting invited into a world of supercar owners and high level business players. But the heart of the message is not the cars or the scenery. It is the internal battle we face when we know we are not living up to who we say we are. I tell a story about driving through winding mountain roads with people who had far more experience than I did. I was out of my league. They had done the reps. They knew the roads. They trusted their skill. I did not yet. That experience brought up fear, hesitation, and a deep awareness of how it feels to step into a space where others are operating at a higher level. It reminded me that growth is a process. You earn certainty through practice, not by comparing yourself to someone who has simply done it longer. This became the framework for the larger message of the episode. Most people think ethics is just not lying, not cheating, and not stealing. We equate being a good person with avoiding obvious wrongs. But I push the idea further. Ethics is also about doing what you know you are supposed to do for your family, for your body, and for your business. It is about living up to the standard you set for yourself. And when you do not follow through, when you stop pushing the envelope, when you leave everything as an option, you are stealing from yourself. You are stealing from your family. You are stealing from your future. That is why many walk around with anxiety, restlessness, and constant pressure. It is not the client who might fall out of escrow. It is not the market. It is not the lead who is not answering. It is the burden of knowing you are out of integrity with your own moral compass. You are not doing the things you said you would do. You are negotiating with your standards. You are ignoring the internal cues that used to feel heavy but now barely register. I use the example of overeating during Thanksgiving and how quickly I felt the weight of it. I felt it mentally, physically, and emotionally because I knew it was not aligned with my standard. But I corrected course immediately. I returned to my routine. I shortened the leash. Many people do not. They have ignored the signals for so long that they no longer connect their misery with their behaviors. They have drifted so far from their standard that they no longer see how they are cheating themselves. The same thing happens in business. When you promise yourself that you will prospect, or follow up, or show up to the office, and you do not, that is unethical. When you let everything become optional, when you blame the market or another agent or your clients, you avoid the truth. The real ethical violation is not doing the work. The real theft is the theft of opportunity, progress, and stability from the people who trust you the most. The message of this episode is simple. If you feel uneasy, anxious, or constantly behind, look in the mirror. The gap between your moral compass and your behaviors creates misery. Close that gap. Raise your actions to match your standard. Stop stealing from your business. Stop stealing from your family. And stop lying to yourself about why you are not where you want to be. You came into this industry to prosper. Act like it. Live like it. Hold your ethics to a higher standard and everything in your life will begin to move forward with power and clarity. Reader Reflection Questions Where in your life or business are you leaving things as an option when you know they should be non negotiable What standards have you set for yourself that you have quietly drifted away from How would your results change if you treated every responsibility as a moral obligation to your family and your future Notable Quotes "There are levels to everything and if something is required in your life it is your duty to rise to that level" "Not showing up is not being ethical because you are stealing from yourself and from your family" "The gap between your moral compass and your behaviors is the misery many walk around with every day" Follow A.Z.

Have you ever noticed that one powerful weekend can shift the entire trajectory of your life? That's exactly what happened at the Optimized Life Mastermind I co-hosted at my brother Ben Greenfield's biohacker compound in Idaho. And in this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm breaking down my biggest takeaways from that experience through the lens of what I call the 5 F's: Family, Fitness, Faith, Finances, and Fun.If you don't already know Ben, he's basically a walking encyclopedia of high-performance living. New York Times bestselling author, top-tier health and fitness podcaster, former “World's Fittest Man,” supplement founder, coach, entrepreneur, and honestly, just one of the most intentional humans I've ever spent time with. Hosting 20 high-performing entrepreneurs at his home for three and a half days, sharing meals, workouts, masterminds, and late-night deep dives, gave me a front row seat to how he actually lives his optimized life. And I'm pulling back the curtain for you.One of the biggest lessons came from watching Ben lead his family intentionally. He designs an environment where connection isn't optional—it's built in. Morning huddles, evening prayers, tech-free dinners, shared hobbies… all of it creates a home that breathes life into everyone inside it. Research backs it up, too: families with consistent rituals experience higher satisfaction and lower long-term stress. My takeaway? Rituals matter. Even one intentional daily practice, gratitude, prayer, a morning walk, can anchor your entire household.On the fitness front, training with Ben is no joke. The man is a machine. But what struck me most wasn't the intensity. it was the simplicity. Micro-movements: 1-minute mobility, pull-ups between tasks, deep hangs, air squats, brisk walks on calls. Movement snacks, as he calls them. Layer in cold exposure, sunlight, and strength training, and your body becomes a high-performing feedback loop. I came home committed to implementing these simple but powerful movement bursts every day.And then there's faith. Ben calls spiritual fitness the ultimate edge, and I couldn't agree more. His days are rooted in devotion, scripture, worship, and deep conversation. Studies show spiritual practices reduce anxiety and increase emotional resilience, but for Ben, it's more than data; it's an operating system. My biggest takeaway? Stack spirituality into your existing habits. One scripture. One reflection. One prayer. Five minutes. Every day.On the financial side, Ben reminded me that wealth isn't just what you earn, it's what you systematize. Weekly financial reviews, automated investments, intentional giving, and simplifying your income structures create freedom, clarity, and creativity. And that quote he shared? “When God blesses you with wealth, don't build a higher fence, build a longer table.” That's how I want to live.And finally, fun. Joy is not optional. It's strategic. Watching Ben integrate adventure, hobbies, and play into his weekly rhythm was a powerful reminder that fun fuels fulfillment. Whether it's frisbee golf, cooking wild food, family game nights, bow hunting, or spontaneous adventures, fun is woven into the culture of his home. I left with a renewed commitment to schedule joy, not just hope for it.This mastermind wasn't just about health hacks or business tactics. It was about alignment. Humanity. Connection. And the realization that a truly optimized life isn't just built, it's lived, day by day, ritual by ritual, breath by breath.If you want the full experience, all the stories, all the insights, and a deeper dive into how you can implement these 5 F's in your own life, tune in to the full episode. I promise you, there's at least one golden nugget in here that could shift everything for you.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Identity is the glass ceiling of your life. You will never outperform what you believe about who you are. In this powerful episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface expose one of the most dangerous lies in modern culture: “Just be authentic.”Culture has reframed feelings as identity and told men that their current state is a virtue.“I'm just being honest.”“That's just who I am.”“I need validation.”What sounds empowering actually destroys grit, responsibility, and maturity.Garrett and Nick unpack why authenticity without authority leads to narcissism, selfishness, and emotional fragility. True identity doesn't come from feelings — it comes from authority. And there is no higher authority than God and His Word.Garrett shares his own story of leaving the military and rediscovering parts of himself he had buried for the mission — and why the popular “just accept yourself” message is incomplete and often harmful. There's a part of your identity you must embrace, and a part you must go to war against.This episode gives men a biblical foundation for identity, the tools to build confidence without pride, and a roadmap for transformation rooted in Scripture and authority — not emotion.Sign up for the 2026 New Year's Day Ice Bath event hereGet the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereIf you're a man that wants real accountability and training to be a leader, click here.Level up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery... I found myself reflecting on the journey that brought me here. It has been a week filled with gratitude and appreciation for what we are building at A Z and Associates, and the moments that continue to shape who I am. Last week Carla and I had the chance to sit with the Lions team for their meeting, and instead of teaching, we were asked questions. Questions about our past, about the struggles we lived through, and how we found a way to rise. It forced me to revisit what shaped the success we have today, not only in business but in our marriage, in our finances, and in our belief that we could rebuild everything we once lost. When I think about that time, I remember how consumed I was by loss. The debt, the lawsuits, the fear of opening the door, the nights I could not sleep because I was drowning in worry. I punished myself for years, sitting in a dark place where I could not appreciate my life or my family. I missed moments with my daughters because I was stuck staring at everything I did wrong. What I did not realize then was that I was only in my twenties, and my whole life was still ahead of me. Five years later everything changed. Ten years later it changed again. Fifteen years later I could barely recognize that version of me. Every problem had a solution. Every mistake had a way forward. I just did not see it because I refused to get up and keep moving. If I could go back I would tell myself to dust off and trust the process. Life gives us the chance to redeem ourselves, but only if we stop sitting in the pit. That reflection followed me into the next day as we hosted our top producers roundtable. This room was filled with new faces, people who once looked at that lunch on social media and said I want to be in that room. And they are. They stepped toward their vision. They spoke it out loud. They worked until that moment became real. We took the group through a vision plan exercise, something I personally live by. I keep an album in my phone labeled vision plan filled with images and statements of everything I want to build. When I looked at my album from two years ago, I realized I have already accomplished ninety percent of it. Some goals took months, others years, but each one reminded me of what is possible when you see it every day and work toward it with intention. A vision gets you started, but a standard keeps you going. That came up again when I sat in church and listened to the pastor speak about the standards we must set for our own lives. Standards give you the certainty that solutions exist. When I began to create the right habits, when I woke up enthusiastic and ready to compete, I found answers faster. But waking up full of fear, full of anxiety, with no discipline to counter it, only drags you deeper. The prime 3 deposits are a standard. Taking care of your body. Feeding your mind. Becoming a student of your business. Those standards pulled me out of the darkest places of my life. They allowed me to overcome things most people will never experience. Enthusiasm ties it all together. I heard a story on a podcast about how airport dogs are chosen. They are not selected based on breed. They are selected based on enthusiasm. The dogs that pace, bark, jump, and engage with people are the ones they take. Not the ones laying quietly hoping for pity. Enthusiasm fuels curiosity. Curiosity fuels action. Action creates separation. When I look at our top thirty, I see that same energy. They show up hungry. They learn fast. They execute immediately. They do not wait for the perfect moment. They create the moment through action. That attitude compounds quickly and becomes momentum. We are heading into the final five weeks of the year and I see the enthusiasm in those who are still pushing. Some agents are chasing two more deals. Some are chasing four. They want to hit the stage at Ignite. They want to finish the year strong. While the rest of the industry is slowing down, they are speeding up. And because they are moving with intention, they will get what they are chasing. Most agents take it easy during the holidays. They convince themselves that buyers and sellers disappear. But those who outwork, out market, and out focus the competition will dominate the month of December. If you treat these next five weeks with fire, you set yourself up for the strongest start to 2026. I expect next year to bring challenges. I expect competition to rise. That is exactly why I stay in the lab, sharpening every skill, adjusting every system, and preparing for what is coming. That certainty comes from the standards I live by. If you want to rise, you must build the standard long before the results show up. Reader reflection questions What standard do you need to recommit to in order to face your next challenge with certainty instead of fear Where has your enthusiasm faded, and how would your results change if you restored it What is one vision you can bring closer to reality by taking action on it today instead of waiting for the perfect moment Notable quotes "A vision can get you going but a standard is what keeps you going." "Everything has a solution but I wasted years sitting in the pit convincing myself I had none." "Enthusiasm creates separation because it turns curiosity into action." Follow A.Z.

Have you ever hit a birthday and thought, “Whoa… I learned a lot this year”?In this special birthday episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm breaking down 36 life lessons from 36 trips around the sun, the real stuff, the hard-won wisdom, the wins, the mistakes, and the things that actually helped me put the Happy in my Hustle this past year.Every year, I do this little tradition where I reflect back on the life truths that hit the hardest across all 10 Happy Hustle alignments. It's not about being perfect. It's about staying aligned, being intentional, and actually enjoying this wild ride called life.And if you're an entrepreneur like me trying to grow your business without burning out, these lessons will resonate. Because honestly, most of them came from learning things the hard way. Fatherhood stretched me. Marriage humbled me. Health reminded me not to take shortcuts. Faith grounded me. Nature healed me. And business? Man… business taught me a ton about focus and what actually matters.A few of the biggest lessons I break down inside the episode:Giving to others is one of the fastest ways to fill yourself up—it's crazy how true that is.Your health will humble you real quick if you neglect it (ask me how I know).Your attention is your most valuable currency, and your phone will steal it if you let it.If you want a 10-level partner, you've gotta be a 10-level partner—hard truth, but a game changer.And joy? Joy comes when you prioritize fun, passion, and presence… not just productivity.I also share why faith expanded for me this year, why nature remains my best medicine, and why focusing on margin over revenue has brought more peace and abundance into my world than ever before. These 36 lessons aren't just motivational, they're practical and immediately actionable.My hope is simple: If just one of these lessons helps you harmonize your ambition and your well-being…If just one truth gives you clarity, relief, inspiration, or direction…Then this episode did its job.So if you're ready to reset, realign, and maybe laugh a little at my mistakes along the way, I'd be honored to have you join me for this birthday special.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface break down one of the most valuable — and rare — abilities in leadership: strategic thinking.Most people react. Few people think. Strategic thinking is the discipline of stepping back, seeing the whole picture, and identifying what really matters so you can make decisions that have lasting impact, not just short-term comfort.Garrett shares how this mindset has been one of his greatest assets and how learning to zoom in and out of problems changes your performance in every area of life. Nick dives into the practical tools for developing this skill, from managing your time and asking better questions to practicing reverse stress testing — simplifying until it's not true.If you want to stop living reactively and start leading intentionally, this episode will teach you how to think at a higher level. In This Episode You'll Learn:What strategic thinking really means and why it's essential for leadershipThe 3 questions strategic thinkers always ask:Where are we? – Developing awareness and reality-based evaluationWhere are we going? – Defining purpose and directionWhat matters most right now? – Prioritizing for maximum impactHow to zoom in and out to gain clarity under pressureThe art of simplifying until it's not true — breaking complexity down without losing truthThe difference between planning and plans — how to adapt when things changeWhy imagination and evaluation are the hidden engines of great leadershipSign up for the 2026 New Year's Day Ice Bath event hereGet the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereIf you're a man that wants real accountability and training to be a leader, click here.Level up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life

In this enlightening episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Will R.

This episode invites listeners to rethink their relationship with money, redefine what “enough” truly means, and embrace the virtues that lead to lasting fulfillment.Whether you're an experienced investor or just beginning your financial journey, this conversation offers clarity, empowerment, and the tools needed to ride the waves of life with confidence.Practical tools for applying stoicism to relationships, career, money, and self-leadership.Listeners will walk away with a deeper understanding of how inner stability leads to outer success — and how the pursuit of “less” can ultimately bring more peace, more clarity, and more freedom.

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface dismantle one of the most powerful lies in modern culture — that you are the main character of your own story.Drawing from Scripture, history, and real-world examples, they explore how society's obsession with self — from slogans like “Have it your way” and “Because you're worth it” — has shaped a generation that's prideful, impatient, and spiritually empty.Garrett and Nick explain that true fulfillment doesn't come from self-expression but from submission. The difference between salvation and wisdom is learning to play your part in the story God is already writing.Through biblical truth and practical wisdom, they show how humility, endurance, and responsibility unlock the kind of heroic, meaningful life every man was created for.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I talk about what it means to truly be a student of life and business. Every day is full of lessons some that we see right away and others that show up later as the results we experience. Whether it's in our health, our business, or our relationships, everything connects back to the choices we make, the awareness we have, and how willing we are to learn. Becoming a Student of Life I've always prided myself on being the student. Whether I'm talking to a brand-new agent or someone with twenty years in the business, I want to know how they did it how they got that deal, what they said, what they learned. The lessons are everywhere, but only if you're paying attention. Too often people show up thinking they already know. They stop taking notes. They stop asking questions. And that's when they stop growing. That lesson hit home during a dinner with Carla when I met a young realtor from Alabama. He had big goals and a lot going on a real estate business, a logistics company, property management, and even a master's program. But what stood out was how he never stopped talking about himself. He wasn't listening. He wasn't learning. He was chasing acknowledgment instead of wisdom. And I thought to myself, that's where so many people miss it. They think being busy means being productive. But real growth doesn't come from doing more things. It comes from mastering one thing and becoming the best at it. The Power of Intrinsic Value Being a student is what builds intrinsic value your inner worth, your certainty, your standard. It's not what you project, it's who you are when no one's watching. That's why at AZ & Associates, I teach agents to build their personal brand, to show people who they are and what they stand for. Certainty comes from doing the work daily, from sharing what you're learning, from showing up consistently. We push our agents to post videos, to share their lessons, to document their progress because that's how you build trust. But most people miss this because they think they already know. They hear the same message and assume it doesn't apply to them. Yet those same words sound completely different to the person who's actually doing the work. The difference isn't in the message it's in the level of application. Setting the Standard As we head into 2026, the standard has to be higher. Being a student means showing up, asking questions, applying what's being taught, and learning from every situation. It's not just about money or status. It's about character and trust. I only do business with people I can trust people who hold themselves to a standard. Because your business will always reflect your consistency and your character. Don't chase attention or followers. Chase growth. Build certainty. Build intrinsic value. When you do that, you attract the right people, the right opportunities, and the right clients. Conclusion Life and business are about being the student always learning, always refining, always showing up. Be the person who listens more than they talk. Take notes. Apply the lessons. Set a standard that others have to rise to. Because at the end of the day, your results will always reflect how coachable you are and how much you're willing to grow. Reflective Questions Where in your life have you stopped being the student? How can you raise your standard to build more trust and certainty? What lesson is life trying to teach you right now that you've been avoiding? Notable Quotes "A jack of all trades is a master of none. Focus on one thing and become great at it." "Certainty isn't arrogance it's knowing that it's only a matter of time before you figure it out." "Your business will always reflect your consistency and your character." Follow A.Z.

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface revisit one of their most practical and transformative principles — Timeframe Orientation.Your timeframe determines your direction. Most people live in short-term cycles — 30-day paychecks, 12-month goals, and reactionary habits — but true success and spiritual maturity come when you learn to see further down the road.Garrett and Nick unpack how short-term thinking sabotages long-term growth in every area of life: parenting, marriage, health, business, and faith. Drawing from Scripture, personal stories, and leadership lessons, they show how extending your perspective aligns you with God's eternal timeline and helps you live with greater clarity, discipline, and purpose.

In this illuminating and transformative episode, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Thomas Jones, widely known as The Woke Prophet, for a powerful conversation that ventures deep into the realms of spiritual awakening, unseen forces, and the journey of reconnecting with one's divine assignment.Together, they explore the profound intersection of consciousness, healing, and spiritual responsibility — inviting listeners to rethink everything they believe about themselves, the world around them, and the invisible dimensions that shape our lives. Thomas shares the raw and riveting story of his awakening following a life-changing injury, and how that crisis became the catalyst for revelations about energy, karma, possession, and the higher truths that govern human existence.This conversation brings clarity, depth, and perspective to the mysteries many feel but struggle to articulate — making it a must-listen for seekers, healers, and anyone sensing that life holds far more than meets the eye.Connect With The Woke Prophet (Thomas Jones)

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface tackle one of the most misunderstood and misused traits in men...ambition.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery... I shared what it feels like when everything begins to align. There's this undeniable energy right now a momentum that feels like a tsunami of opportunity. And that feeling only comes when you've spent years making small, consistent deposits into yourself. It's about the preparation before the payoff, the unseen hours before the spotlight, and the faith in what you've built when no one else is watching. I used to say it during my Ironman training: we're doing this alone together. That phrase still holds true in real estate, leadership, and life. Each of us has to put in the work individually, but collectively, we rise higher. What I'm seeing right now inside our organization reminds me of those marathon runners who were once out of shape and uncertain, now setting personal records because they stayed consistent. Those daily deposits physical, spiritual, emotional are what build the capacity to lead, to create, and to sustain growth. The truth is, something massive is on the horizon. But opportunity doesn't favor the unprepared. If you're not building yourself daily, that same wave that lifts others could crush you. Many will look for shortcuts or latch onto someone else's success instead of doing the work themselves. But the real growth comes from understanding that it's you who must make those daily choices. It's you who must show up and prove it to yourself before the world believes it. Over the next few months, we're preparing to announce four major moves that will redefine who we are as a company. These decisions are born out of years of preparation out of the same consistent habits we've preached since the beginning. And when I think back on moments like 2020, when others pulled back and we expanded, it reminds me that courage in uncertain times creates legacy. The same principles apply today. I've been revisiting books like Loving What Is and The Big Leap, seeing them through a new lens because of all the growth that's happened since I first read them. What once felt like theory now feels like confirmation. When you evolve, your perspective changes. The same words hit differently when you've earned the experience behind them. This business, this life it's not about luck or waiting for the right moment. It's about building the right foundation so that when the wave of opportunity comes, you're ready to ride it. That's what these last twelve years have been about for me: small daily actions, taken consistently, leading to a lifestyle I once only imagined. From the cars, the home, the Christmas trees we just put up none of it was luck. It was the result of discipline, self-awareness, and faith. And I'm proud of that younger version of myself who refused to give up when things were dark. The guy who felt hopeless but made a decision to change. That decision, followed by daily deposits, changed everything. You have that same power. You can start now, today, right where you are. We're entering a new era one where preparation meets opportunity. Some will rise, others will get swept under. But if you've been doing the work, 2026 will be your year to dominate. So lean in. Revisit the fundamentals. Read the books. Build yourself first, because your growth fuels everything else. We're doing this alone together. Let's ride the wave. Reader Reflection Questions What small deposits are you making daily that will prepare you for the opportunities ahead? How often do you revisit your vision and remind yourself that you're capable of more? When fear or uncertainty creeps in, how do you shift your focus back to discipline and faith in your process? Notable Quotes "We're doing this alone together." "Small deposits create big results." "You can't build a great life without first building yourself." Follow A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery... I talk about what it means to take complete ownership of your life, your marriage, your business, and your peace. As we close out 2025, many of us are already thinking about what 2026 will bring, but before we look forward, we need to look back and take inventory of what got us here. For me, the turning point came when I stopped blaming circumstances, people, and markets and started realizing that every result in my life was the direct outcome of my decisions, my habits, and the things I neglected. There was a time when I blamed Carla for how things were going. I thought she wasn't as involved or supportive as I needed her to be. But the truth was, I had stopped doing the small things that mattered. I stopped holding her hand. I stopped saying good morning and good night. I stopped showing appreciation. Those small, unaccounted for actions, or lack of them, nearly destroyed my marriage. The same thing happened in my business. It wasn't the market, the rates, or the clients it was the complacency that crept in when I thought I had already earned the right to slow down. I lost my urgency. I stopped growing. I stopped evolving. Everything begins with the small things. The same way small acts of love can heal a relationship, small lapses in discipline can destroy a business. When you stop doing the things that make you grow, you slowly drift into a state of frustration and resentment. You start to carry anger toward others that really reflects the disappointment you feel toward yourself. I had to learn that awareness and ownership were the keys to turning things around. It wasn't about building vision boards or dreaming of the future it was about fixing the behaviors that led to my pain in the first place. That awareness extended beyond my business and marriage. I started to see how I treated my body, how I fueled myself, how I spoke to myself. I realized that exhaustion, stress, and anxiety were not random; they were the magnified results of what I consumed, what I neglected, and what I allowed to persist. Dysfunction magnifies. Complacency magnifies. But so does discipline, gratitude, and consistency. Today, I rely on habits. Habits keep me grounded when motivation fades. Habits are what saved my marriage, rebuilt my business, and restored my peace. It's the small acts looking my wife in the eye, hugging my daughters, learning something new for my business, or simply telling myself I'm proud that keep me aligned. The person I am today is the man I once prayed to become, and I don't take that for granted. Because everything I have now is the byproduct of the small, unseen, daily choices that compound into purpose. Reader Reflection Questions What small habits have you stopped doing that once made you feel connected, driven, or at peace? In what areas of your life have you allowed complacency or entitlement to replace urgency and gratitude? How can you take ownership today for the results you've created, and what small actions can you commit to changing right now? Notable Quotes "A leader must be a leader in their own world first." "It's never the big thing that breaks you it's the small things you stopped doing that got you there." "The person I am today is the man I once prayed to become, and I won't take that for granted."   Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I talk about what it really means to have it all and the journey it took for me to find peace, purpose, and power in my life. As October comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the years of growth, the pain that shaped me, and the discipline that brought me to where I am today. Finding Purpose Beyond the Struggle There was a time when every challenge felt personal, when my ego was fragile, and every mistake sent me over the edge. I had no emotional control. I would lash out, lose patience, and feel like I was constantly under attack. But I realized that the constant chaos wasn't life's fault it was mine. I was missing the capacity to lead myself. I learned that hard work and struggle are not the same thing. Hard work builds, but struggle destroys. It wasn't enough to make money or chase success. I needed to find fulfillment, to build character, to become a better man, husband, and father. The moment I shifted my focus from chasing results to developing discipline, everything changed. The Awakening Back in 2013, I was at a breaking point. I was financially progressing but emotionally broken. Depression wasn't something I understood it was a habit I had learned from my environment. I thought something was wrong with me. I told myself I wasn't gifted, that maybe I wasn't built for more. But I began to see that the reason we're here is to create. We were created to create. And through that realization, I started taking control of my life again. I built disciplines that helped me grow in every area: business, marriage, health, and faith. That process became the foundation of what I now call the "have it all" lifestyle. Redefining "Having It All" Having it all isn't about wealth, power, or recognition. It's about having fulfillment in every part of your life. It's about becoming the type of person who can be trusted, who keeps promises, and who operates with integrity. I once thought success meant money first, like Scarface said: "First you get the money, then the power." But I realized true power comes from self-mastery from building yourself mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The Process of Transformation When I first started this journey, everything was on the line my business, my marriage, my sense of purpose. What saved me was a commitment to simplicity. I narrowed my focus to three daily actions: a power deposit, a purpose deposit, and a profits deposit. That became the foundation for the 12 Week Target Journal. Through that journal, I trained myself to stay in the game no matter what challenges came my way. It was about building capacity, not chasing easy results. And it worked. Years later, I sit here in gratitude for the life I've built. I look back and realize that the man I was in 2013 had to die for this version of me to live. The lessons, the setbacks, the breakdowns all of it was necessary. Every hardship prepared me for the expansion I now lead others through. Success as a Responsibility Success is not just a goal; it's a responsibility. It's about how you walk, how you talk, how you lead, and who you become. It's about raising the bar not just for yourself, but for your family, your community, and your team. What we've built here is proof that doing the right things consistently leads to extraordinary results. It's not about luck. It's about patience, consistency, and faith. The "have it all" lifestyle is not easy. It's a slow-moving process that demands your full attention every single day. But if you stay aligned, stay disciplined, and trust the process, the results will exceed your expectations. Reader Reflection Questions What areas of your life are still driven by struggle rather than purpose? How can you begin rebuilding yourself through daily discipline instead of emotion? What would "having it all" truly mean for you beyond material success? Notable Quotes "We were created to create." "Hard work builds, but struggle destroys." "Success is not a goal; it's a responsibility." Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.
