Barry conducted a Monday Mindset training focused on leadership development, emphasizing that leadership is not something people are born with but must be learned, developed, and earned through caring about others and building trust. He discussed how genuine empathy and understanding people's goals are foundational to leadership, using the example of asking new team members about their real estate business dreams and goals. Barry explained that great leaders develop great people through a ripple effect, using the candle lighting metaphor to illustrate how sharing knowledge and expertise with others creates more light than darkness. He shared his personal vision of leaving a legacy that extends beyond his lifetime, using the example of a grandfather telling his grandson about the impact of his great-grandfather, with Barry wanting to be remembered as someone who helped others achieve their dreams.

Barry delivered a motivational training session inspired by recent personal experiences with loss and challenging situations. He shared how visiting Denver and attending police luncheons reminded him of the impermanence of life, highlighting the importance of not procrastinating on important goals due to the reality that 150,000 people die every day. Barry discussed the concept of choosing "hard" over "easy," explaining that people face two types of hard situations and must decide when and how to tackle them for long-term success. He applied this philosophy to health, business, and real estate, emphasizing that discipline compounds over time like compound interest and that avoiding difficult decisions often leads to greater discomfort later. Barry used examples from his recent 4-mile walk across the Coronado Bridge in San Diego to illustrate how taking the harder path initially provides greater rewards and fewer competitors at the top. He concluded by reminding the audience that freedom comes at a high cost both financially and in time sacrifice, but the consistent effort to do things hard now creates greater opportunities later.
It doesn't matter how smart you are — going it alone isn't a good idea. You need to have mentors to bounce ideas off, get outside perspectives, and help you see what you're missing. In this Mindset Monday, I'm talking about the mentors who keep me on track. Looking for a top-tier mentor to guide you in your real estate business? That's what we do.
“Send Coach John a message”From Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11) came this gem on what he calls a “MindsetMonday”. “Don't let old battles keep you from new victories.” I've done this plenty of times. Keep re-hashing something in my head from my past that is holding me back from my current day / in the moment things I should be doing. This became clear again not because I saw this post, but actually going through it because of my recent surgery. So much stuff we tend to carry around and if you are like me, sometimes that old stuff gets in the way of doing new & great things. Something good for me to work on while I have a bit more time on my hands as I heal up. Thanks for listening.

Monica presented on the topic of brain neuromuscles and mindset training for realtors, focusing on John Assaraff's NeuroGym program and its 7 core neuromuscles. She explained how these brain systems affect decision-making, emotional regulation, belief systems, motivation, adaptability, creativity, and stress management. Monica shared her personal experience with the program and encouraged attendees to take a 15-question assessment to evaluate their own brain wiring, emphasizing that 95% of behavior is driven by the non-conscious mind rather than conscious thought.
Happy Mindset Monday!Dr. Mamta Bhatt changed how I think about joy.She was a Harvard-trained scientist living the high-flying life. Private planes. Boardrooms with Rockefellers.

Inside her, a voice yearned: "What would it be to be happy?"She was looking at the sunrise.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!In this Mindset Monday, I'm answering a handful of listener questions that all point to the same thing.You can be doing everything right and still feel off.We talk about the loneliness that shows up not just during addiction, but during recovery too. Being home with the kids while your partner is in meetings, rebuilding, doing what they need to do. You're proud of them. You wanted this. But it still feels lonely and no one really prepares you for that.I also get into something personal. Chronic pain and staying sober. What it looks like to deal with real physical pain without going back to the thing that used to fix it. This one matters because a lot of people are dealing with both at the same time.We talk about uncertainty and how this life comes with more of it than most people can tolerate. You don't get guarantees. You don't get to know how it's going to turn out. At some point you have to decide if you can live like that or not.We get into time and energy too. How much of your day is going to conversations that go nowhere, overthinking, waiting, hoping. And how much is actually going toward building your life.We talk about communication, but not the fluffy version. What actually helps and what just keeps you stuck in the same loop.And then we finish with something a lot of people feel but don't say out loud.Is it fair to be frustrated when someone stops doing what they know keeps them sober?Short answer. Yes.But what you do with that frustration matters more than the feeling itself.This episode is real. No fluff. Just the stuff you're actually dealing with when you're in it.If you've ever thought, this is what I wanted so why does it still feel like this, this one's for you.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!Online Program: www.reclaiming-you.comSoberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here
Happy Mindset Monday!This conversation changed how I think about my body. This conversation is about Conscious Wellness™️The Dance between Scientific Medicine & Spiritual Medicine™️Lea Llovio is known as the "doc whisperer." She's a conscious wellness thought leader who helps high achievers identify the thought patterns that drain energy and delay healing.She said: "Your cells are listening to you. And if your cells hear you feeling guilty or ashamed, they go into panic mode and cannot do their healing work."That stopped me.Lea teaches what she calls conscious wellness. The dance between scientific medicine and spiritual medicine.We talked about how everything that happens to you started with a thought.Thought → Emotion → Action → Result.About radical self-acceptance. Not self-love yet. Because many people have never experienced love.About talking to yourself the way you would your most precious child.About guilt affecting high achievers. About the body as a sacred vessel that deserves reverence.About you can't be angry and thankful at the same time.
Monica led a Mindset Monday session focused on intuition as a "quiet superpower" in real estate, discussing how agents can leverage gut feelings alongside data-driven decisions. She shared personal examples of using intuition to avoid potentially unsafe situations with clients and emphasized that intuition provides calm, clear guidance that contrasts with fear-based decision making. The session covered how to train intuition through fast decision-making, reducing noise, and maintaining confidence through the "3 C's" of certainty, confidence, and clarity. Participants shared their own experiences, including Robb's example about trusting intuition over helping difficult clients and Bonnie's story about ignoring instincts with a problematic client. Monica concluded by encouraging attendees to make three decisions using intuition throughout their day.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!So incredibly gracious for your understanding as we navigate the crazy schedules of youth sports and rework some of our older and favorite episodes. You can bet on us being back and better than every with new lessons, episodes, and perspectives as soon as we can come up for air and breathe a bit!In this Mindset Monday episode, we're calling out one of the most common excuses people use to avoid changing: “You knew who I was when you married me.”It sounds logical. It's not.That mindset freezes people in time and turns growth into something that feels like betrayal instead of responsibility. But adulthood doesn't work like that. You don't get to qualify once and coast forever. Not in your career, not in your health, and definitely not in your relationships.We also get into the conversation around shame, because people love to label it as toxic across the board. The truth is, not all shame is the same. Some of it keeps you stuck. Some of it is the exact thing that wakes you up. The difference comes down to whether you face it or protect your ego from it.At the core of this episode is a simple truth: Your ability to grow is directly tied to how much truth you can tolerate about yourself without running from it.If you're stuck in the same patterns, struggling to rebuild trust, or frustrated with someone who refuses to change, this episode will hit exactly where it needs to.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!Online Program: www.reclaiming-you.comSoberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here
Happy Mindset Monday!This conversation is raw.Jonathan Berryhill grew up in a mobile home with holes in the floor. On his own at 15. Now he's a multi-business owner with three real estate brokerages, government contracting, healthcare, and a farm with quarter horses.But he didn't skip the middle part.The part where he became unfaithful to his wife. Multiple times. Where he was drifting. Where he called her from Hawaii and said: "If you'll have me back, I'm going to give you an amazing life."That became his why.This conversation is about owning what you've done. Forgiving yourself. Creating a new identity. And building the life you said you were going to build.Jonathan said: "Discipline outweighs motivation 10 to one."
Barry presented a comprehensive training on motivation and goal-setting using his GPS framework (Goals, Plan, System). He explained how motivation works through emotion and described a systematic approach to setting and achieving goals, including breaking down financial targets into smaller, manageable numbers and creating daily visualization exercises to maintain motivation. Barry shared personal examples from his police career and business ventures to illustrate how the GPS method helped him achieve success, emphasizing that motivation should be treated like a daily habit similar to taking a shower or charging a phone. The presentation concluded with Barry encouraging participants to implement the GPS framework and find effective systems within their real estate business.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!A classic replay for the absolutely insanely busy life we're living right now. I love this episode because it offers inspiration to those that are looking at their current life and a life of sobriety and wondering how it could ever happen...I promise you, it's possible and YOU can do this!Getting sober is one thing. Staying sober - living sober in a world where alcohol is everywhere - is another challenge entirely. In this episode of Mindset Monday, Matt dives into what it really looks like to be sober day-to-day, from battling boredom and navigating social situations to understanding the brain science behind why everything feels flat at first.Matt shares practical strategies, personal stories, and the mindset shifts that carried him through the hard moments: why cravings pass in 15 minutes, how to survive your “firsts” without alcohol, and how to make sobriety part of your identity rather than a punishment. You'll hear about transitional addictions, why consistency matters more than perfection, and why the phrase “I don't drink” is so much more powerful than “I can't drink.”Whether you're new to recovery or years in, this episode is about more than avoiding alcohol - it's about building a life you don't want to escape from.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!Online Program: www.reclaiming-you.comSoberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here
Happy Mindset Monday!This conversation stopped me.Jamie Lerner said: "If it's a negative thought, it's not your inner voice."Jamie helps people reframe what they're feeling, reconnect with themselves, and shift out of the stories that keep them stuck.We talked about the stories we tell ourselves. The stories we inherited from childhood that we're still reciting. Stories that aren't even true anymore.Jamie said: "We update our phones. We update everything. But we don't update our story."We talked about looking inward instead of seeking external validation. Doing the inner work privately. Giving yourself what you want others to give you.The difference between needing people and desiring people.Why judgment is a sign you're disconnected from yourself.
In this Monday Mindset episode, Dan Gomer discussed the concept of leaving an intentional legacy. He explained that everyone leaves a legacy whether intentionally or unintentionally, and emphasized the importance of being clear about what legacy one wants to create and why it matters. Dan shared personal experiences and suggested practical exercises like the "30 days left to live" experiment and the "cubicle mate" value identification method. He stressed the need to align daily actions with one's values and emphasized that feedback from others should be considered as long as it aligns with personal goals. The discussion highlighted the importance of consistent self-reflection and making intentional choices to create a meaningful legacy.
Barry presented on "AI-Driven Mindset" during a Monday Mindset session, sharing four strategies for using AI as a thinking partner in real estate business development. The presentation covered reframing daily mindset through AI prompts, building identity through becoming the person needed for success, using AI for role-play to build confidence, and leveraging AI as a content curator for motivation and learning. Barry emphasized that while AI can't replace human mentorship, it serves as an accessible 24/7 thinking partner that can help with mindset shifts, confidence building, and content curation to support real estate business growth and consistency.

One of 80 women jumping out of five aircraft, going upside down at 200 mph.But this episode isn't about skydiving.It's about what Melanie learned in the most intense environment imaginable and how she helps people access the far reaches of their human potential.We talk about Type 2 fun: stuff that's fun only after it's over. Hard things. Climbing mountains. Writing books. Deep healing work.We talk about the fear of humiliation. Being willing to look stupid. Earning confidence through doing scary things.We talk about healing versus self-care. Support systems. Ambition as a dirty word when it shouldn't be.Melanie said: "We cannot access the far reaches of our human experience without going down and to the left. If we go there, we can go so much further because we don't know what's actually weighing us down."

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!In this re-released Mindset Monday episode, Matt talks about one of the hardest parts of recovery and relationships: opening up.This one's for both sides of the table - the person who's sober but still hiding, and the partner who's done begging for honesty.If you're trying to rebuild, this is how we did it.If you've already walked away, this may remind you why you made that choice.I break down what it actually took to open up, how we both hold space for each other, and rebuilt trust from ashes - not illusion. In this episode I break down how I ventured into the great unknown of emotional intimacy and having emotional conversations...I discuss how Paige made that process easier, and I'll get into some real actionable ways even the most closed-off guy can start to connect with anyone.But if you're on the outside of a relationship, and you made that choice with clarity - please hear me clearly: don't let this episode talk you back into chaos. If you made your decision on sound advice from professionals, friends, and your own heart - stay gone. You can't want it enough for two people. They have to take the lead on repair. You cannot do the work for them.

Happy Mindset Monday!Jack Wagoner is 19 years old. At 17, he was standing in front of a mirror in France, completely burned out after achieving everything he set out to do. And he still didn't have enough.That's when he realized: He'd sacrificed the thing he wanted for the thing that was supposed to get it.Jack moved to France alone at 16 for his junior year. No baseball (which was his life). No family. No friends. Not even English.By 17, he'd learned French fluently, built a business managing four employees, and achieved thing after thing.And he was exhausted. Burned out. Still feeling like it wasn't enough.This conversation is about the duality of gratitude and ambition. How to stop attaching your self-worth to your goals. How to stand on happiness while you build instead of chasing it.
Barry breaks down a powerful morning routine designed to create momentum, discipline, and long-term success in real estate and business. Drawing from his military background, Barry emphasizes that how you start your day determines your results—and that consistency, not intensity, is what drives real growth. He introduces a simple but effective 5-step morning framework built around gratitude, personal development, goal programming, affirmations, and intentional outreach. Inspired by principles from Think and Grow Rich, Barry explains how writing goals in the present tense and using affirmations can reprogram the subconscious mind, helping you align your actions with your long-term vision. Beyond mindset, the session dives into practical business-building habits, including daily outreach: sending 5 personalized messages, making 2 meaningful calls, and consistently nurturing your sphere of influence. Barry stresses that staying top-of-mind through genuine human connection—not constant selling—is what creates lasting opportunities. If you're looking for a simple, repeatable system to boost productivity, strengthen your mindset, and generate more business daily, this episode gives you a clear plan to execute.
This is something that a lot of business owners don't want to hear. And if you're one of them, then you especially need to hear it. The easy way is the easiest way to keep wasting time and money. Ready to choose a better way? Tom Ferry's Coaching doesn't make the things you do easier — it makes YOU more capable of doing hard things with less pain. And it guarantees that your hard work pays off. Schedule a free consultation now to learn what I mean.
Happy Mindset Monday!This is part 2 of my conversation with Bryon Sweno.And this one goes deeper.I share what it's been like moving back to St. Louis after 24 years and learning how to be a son, a brother, and an uncle again. Bryon shares the story of being replaced on his high school relay team hundredths of a second away from breaking the school record. That moment shaped his work ethic for life.We talk about coaches who taught us lessons we didn't know we needed. We talk about the difference between wanting something and wanting to do the work to become the person who has it.The core message:Study yourself more than you study others.Know who you are. Know what you're willing to sacrifice. Know what you're not willing to sacrifice. Then live accordingly.
Dan breaks down the real challenge of building a successful real estate business—staying consistent when results aren't immediate. Using the analogy of hitting a piñata, he explains how success often comes after repeated effort, even when it feels like nothing is happening.Alongside this, Allison dives into the psychology behind why agents struggle, highlighting how our brains are wired for certainty in a world that demands patience. This mismatch can lead to burnout, self-doubt, and unrealistic expectations.The session focuses on shifting from outcome-based thinking to process-driven action—building routines, tracking small wins, and creating momentum through daily consistency. Dan emphasizes the importance of intentional focus, eliminating distractions, and surrounding yourself with the right community and mentorship.If you've been feeling stuck or discouraged, this episode is a powerful reminder: success isn't about instant wins—it's about showing up, doing the work, and trusting the process.

Happy Mindset Monday!This one's different.This is Brian Sweno. He produces this podcast every week. He's seen the full journey.We talk about what it actually looks like to go full-time with the thing you love. The real version. Not the highlight reel.I share what the first 90 days of leaving healthcare leadership have been like. Brian shares his mom getting fired from Walmart after 30 years when she got cancer. We talk about cashing in change to feed your kids, shooting MMA fights cageside, and doing what you love whether you get paid or not.This is about the shift from helping someone else accomplish their dreams to finally pursuing your own.We talk about work-life balance (spoiler: there isn't one when you are the business). We talk about being replaceable at your job but irreplaceable to your family. We talk about self-reflection, identity, and knowing who you really are.
Monica breaks down how understanding personality types can transform your real estate business using the DISC assessment framework. By identifying whether a client is driven (D), influential (I), steady (S), or compliant (C), agents can tailor their communication style to build trust, avoid misunderstandings, and close more deals. She shares real-world strategies for working with different client types—from fast-making high-D buyers to relationship-driven high-I clients, and detail-oriented high-C personalities. Monica also highlights how patience and reassurance are key when working with steady, cautious clients. This session is a must-listen for agents looking to improve client relationships, increase referrals, and communicate more effectively in every stage of the transaction.
Does it ever feel like everything in your life is all mixed up (finances, health, discipline, etc.)? Most agents focus on moving from a state of “dis-ease” to “wellness,” but I'll tell you, wellness isn't where you want to be. Greatness is achievable, and in this Mindset Monday, I'll let you know what it takes to get there.
Have an episode suggestion? Text us!A lot of people believe that once the drinking or drugs stop, life will finally start to feel better. But for many people in recovery, the opposite happens at first. The chaos disappears and what's left can feel like a huge void. No excitement, no purpose, and no clear direction.In this Mindset Monday episode, we'll talk about why that happens. Addiction hijacks the brain's reward system, which is why early recovery can feel flat, boring, and emotionally heavy. Sobriety removes the destruction, but it does not automatically rebuild a life.This episode also speaks directly to spouses and partners. Many of you think that once the addiction stops everything should go back to normal. Instead, you may find yourself staring at the life you've been surviving for years and wondering who you are without the chaos to manage.We'll discuss the science behind this stage of recovery, why both people often feel lost at first, and what actually fills that void. Community, purpose, contribution, and rebuilding a life that feels meaningful are what turn sobriety into something worth protecting.Sobriety isn't the finish line. It's the starting line for building a completely different life.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!

Text us!This episode is a direct conversation with the person who's still drinking, still using, still bargaining, or quietly telling themselves they're fine while their life feels smaller than it should.It was originally created for spouses to share with their partner, but over time we realized something: this message isn't just for the people loving someone through addiction. It's for the person in it.Matt speaks from lived experience, not theory. He walks through the fears that keep people stuck, the lies we tell ourselves about alcohol, and the real cost of staying the same. This isn't about shame, control, religion, or being told what to do. It's about honesty. It's about taking a real look at what alcohol is actually giving you versus what it's taking from your life, your relationships, and your potential.We talk about masculinity, accountability, legacy, early recovery, and why you can't fix this alone. This conversation is uncomfortable on purpose, but it's also hopeful.If something in you knows there's more to life than this cycle, this episode is for you.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!
