Do you think you need more self-discipline to succeed? Whether you want to eat healthier or write that book, it's easy to assume you're going to wait until you have more willpower to reach those goals. But what if the key isn't self-discipline at all? Today, I'm sharing two powerful strategies that can help you reach your goals without relying on forcing yourself to do something you hate: the Domino Effect and the Lazy Genius approach. Some of the things I talk about are: The biggest misconceptions about self-discipline How to work smarter, not just harder How understanding your brain makes it easier to work with your natural tendencies, rather than fight against them How the Domino Effect can create big results from small changes The Lazy Genius approach to designing your environment for success Why professional athletes struggle with self-discipline outside their sport How to make the right choice the easy choice Practical tips for reaching goals How to decide which approach to take to reach your goals Subscribe to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mentally Stronger Premium⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

Episode summary Author and teacher Philip Goldberg returns to unpack his new book, Karmic Relief (Monkfish). We cut through pop-karma clichés and ask the hard questions: Why do bad actors prosper? What about innocent suffering? Does “what goes around” really come around—and when? Phil offers a clear, practice-ready model grounded in Yoga and Vedānta: karma as lawful cause-and-effect, refined by intention (saṅkalpa) and awareness (svādhyāya), and lived through skillful action (kriyā/karma-yoga). No sugar-coating—just a compassionate, accountable path forward.About our guest Philip Goldberg is the author of the classic American Veda and many other works on India's wisdom traditions. He writes, teaches, and speaks internationally about the practical application of yoga philosophy in modern life. More at philipgoldberg.com.What we coverTwo default frames that fail: cynical materialism (“life's unfair—deal with it”) and a punitive theism that outsources justice—why yoga offers a third way: karma as a law of nature, not a cosmic scorekeeper.Intention matters: why the motivation and quality of mind behind an action shape its consequences—on us and on the field around us.It's not linear: why “instant karma” is the exception; most effects are complex, delayed, and braided with other people's actions.Not just the “bad stuff”: noticing beneficial returns—friendship, support, opportunities—as karma, too.Humility as the doorway: we can't fathom every cause; we can act skillfully anyway.Prevention is practice: building a karmic “balance sheet” through ethical living, steady practice, and timely amends reduces the sting when old debts come due.Forgiveness begins at home: how self-forgiveness and sincere amends interrupt the “slow acid drip of regret.”Prayer, Bhakti & nervous system: prayer as practice for the prayer-giver (bhakti), shifting state and making right action more likely.Yama–Niyama as method, not morals: using the first two limbs practically to uproot harmful samskāras rather than memorize rules.Boundaries are dharma: over-giving and “doormat karma” as the near-enemy of compassion; why healthy limits are part of right action.Practical takeaways Choose skillful action now. You can't rewrite yesterday's causes; you can stack better conditions today.Mind the motive. Before you act, ask: What's my real intention? Adjust there.Make clean amends. Own your slice only, sincerely, and repair what you can. Then change the behavior.Practice = prevention. Daily āsana–prāṇāyāma–dhyāna clears the field (samskāra hygiene) so wise choices come faster.Measure by learning. Treat consequences as feedback, not verdicts. If the same pattern repeats, a lesson is waiting.Selected quotes“Karma is closer to physics than to theology—causes and conditions, not a personality keeping score.”“If you dismiss suffering as ‘their karma,' that response becomes your karma.”“Humility matters: we can't trace every cause, but we can choose wisely now.”“Boundaries are part of compassion—virtue misapplied becomes a near-enemy.”Resources & linksKarmic Relief by Philip Goldberg — Monkfish (now available).Philip Goldberg's site: philipgoldberg.comAlso by Phil: American Veda (context for how Eastern wisdom seeded the West).Related Yoga Therapy Hour episode: Our first conversation with Phil on American Veda (link in feed).Interested in advancing your own studies in Yoga Therapy and Ayurveda?Explore these graduate and certificate programs at Maryland University of Integrative Health (MUIH):Master of Science in Yoga Therapy https://muih.edu/academics/yoga-therapy/master-of-science-in-yoga-therapy/Post-Master's Certificate in Therapeutic Yoga Practices (for licensed healthcare professionals) https://muih.edu/academics/yoga-therapy/post-masters-certificate-in-therapeutic-yoga-practices/Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Ayurveda https://muih.edu/academics/ayurveda/post-baccalaureate-ayurveda-certification/Plus, join us on our Optimal State Mobile App for daily check-ins and simple, easy interventions to help you stay in balance.And explore our Online Community, where you'll receive weekly classes and gain access to a library of classes you can enjoy anytime.

Today we're diving into something that a lot of us feel but don't always catch in the moment: Burnout.    Not the regular kind of tired where a good night's sleep fixes it. The deep, lingering exhaustion that follows you into the next day, the next workout, the next conversation.   Sometimes, the next level of your results won't come from pushing harder. It'll come from slowing down, refueling, and reminding your body that it's safe to grow again. This season, especially through the holidays, I challenge you to nourish your body instead of punish it.   What I Discuss in This Episode How burnout disrupts your hormones, recovery, metabolism, and overall progress — even when you're "doing everything right." The real signs you're burnt out. Why rest isn't optional — and how slowing down, nourishing your body, and reducing stress can actually accelerate your results. Practical ways to support your nervous system during busy seasons so your energy, motivation, and performance return sustainably.

93% of us are walking around with an invisible energetic wall surrounding our hearts, and it's the hidden reason why joy feels distant, love feels hard, and depression lingers no matter what we try. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bradley Nelson, the holistic chiropractic physician and creator of The Emotion Code, to talk about his latest book, The Heart Code, and the groundbreaking discovery of the heart wall. We get into what trapped emotions really are, how they create physical pain and disease, why inherited emotional trauma from generations back is affecting you right now, and the simple muscle testing technique you can use today to start releasing them.  Dr. Nelson shares powerful transformation stories, including a 9-year-old boy saved from severe depression and people finding their soulmates weeks after clearing their heart wall.   "Feeling negative emotions immediately has an effect on the heart. On the other hand, choosing to feel emotions of love and gratitude absolutely improves that heart coherence." ~ Dr. Bradley Nelson   In This Episode: - Dr. Nelson's childhood healing - Understanding the subconscious mind - Defining emotional baggage and the Heart Wall - Nurse who found love after clearing her heart wall - A boy with severe depression transformed in 3 days - Why talk therapy cannot access trapped emotions - The heart wall and physical health - Physical signs you have a heart wall - Effects of the heart wall on relationships - Practical steps to release trapped emotions - Identifying emotions using the Emotion Code chart - Why inherited emotions keep you stuck in patterns - Heart coherence and emotional well-being Products & Resources Mentioned: Puori Creatine+: Get 20% off with code WENDY at https://puori.com/wendy Puori PW1 Whey Protein: Save 20% with code WENDY at https://puori.com/wendy Organifi Happy Drops: Get 20% off with code MYERSDETOX at https://organifi.com/myersdetox Tru Energy Lip Peptide Treatment: Limited-time buy one get one free offer at https://trytruenergy.com/wendy3  Chef's Foundry P600 Cookware: Exclusive listener discount at https://deals.chefsfoundry.com/cookwaredangers?affiliate_id=4211485&aff_sub=MD&aff_sub2=EMAIL&nopopup=false&noautoplay=false&cookiepreview=false  Heavy Metals Quiz: Take it at https://heavymetalsquiz.com   About Dr. Bradley Nelson: Dr. Bradley Nelson is a holistic chiropractic physician, a bestselling author, and one of the world's foremost experts on the bioenergetic causes of disease.

In this episode of Get Psyched, we're diving deep into the emotional toolkit you actually need to navigate real life—with a little humor, a lot of honesty, and zero judgment (okay, maybe some pet peeves were named). If you've ever tried to logic your way out of a big feeling (hi, we all have), this one's for you.We explore why it's so much easier to tell a dramatic internal story than to simply name what we feel… and how identifying the feeling underneath the story leads straight to the need that actually wants your attention. Spoiler: you're only as “needy” as your unmet need, and there's nothing wrong with needing anything.You'll learn how to decode emotions, meet your needs with compassion, and finally stop trying to out-think a feeling (because, really, how's that working?). Plus, we break down what's worth remembering, what's worth releasing, and how to build emotional clarity that actually sticks.The girls explore:

Flute 360 | Episode 355: "Your Spoken Voice Is Your Flute Voice—Here's How to Reunite Them" If you feel disconnected from your playing—unsure, hesitant, or muted—this episode uncovers why. Often, the break isn't just musical; it's between your spoken voice and your flute voice. We revisit early musical memories, confidence wounds, comparison culture, and the pressures that disconnect musicians from their natural expressive centers. You'll learn how your everyday voice can guide you back to authenticity in your artistry. What We Discuss: • How comparison and grading environments could fracture artistic confidence • The moment your spoken and flute voices drifted apart • How past teachers and early musical memories shaped your expression • Why reclaiming your spoken voice repairs your musical voice • Practical ways to bring conversational ease into your playing Main Takeaway: Your flute voice is simply your spoken voice expressed through another medium. When the two reunite, confidence rises, anxiety softens, and your playing becomes more honest, grounded, and you. Join Us Live – December 20, 2025: If this episode stirred something in you, and you want a safe place to reconnect with your artistic voice, join our next Flute 360 Accelerator session on Saturday, December 20th, 2025 from 11 AM–1 PM CT. It's a supportive space to explore expression, identity, and confidence with fellow musicians.

  The World Bank reports that, "today, more than half of the world's population – over 4 billion people – lives in cities." It also estimates that this shift is going to continue, in fact to DOUBLE to nearly 70% – or 7 out of every 10 people will live in cities by 2050. That's only 25 years away. At the same time, extreme weather events are increasingly devastating cities – we have all witnesses how Hurricane Melissa decimated Jamaica last week, for example, destroying home and businesses, schools, houses of worship, government buildings, everything. So what can, should and ARE cities doing to keep their people and economies safe and climate resilient?  What's working and what can we learn from them?  Today we're going to find out from four extraordinary women from across the globe." Joan Michelson's Introduction to the Panel at Smart City Expo 2025   We need to share what works in cities across the globe, and that's exactly what my esteemed panel did recently at the Smart City Expo World Congress 2025 in Barcelona, Spain.

Episode 259: How do you prevent first-trip hassles such as a room not being ready at check-in, Wi-Fi outages, or service delays from discouraging first-time customers from returning? Today's guest, Rachel Bicking, EVP of Innovation at Kobie Marketing, says that after a slightly negative first trip, customers are 80% less likely to return. Kobie—a technology platform that builds and runs rewards and loyalty programs—is solving this. They use a "journey atlas" to read social signals, spot subtle first-trip frictions, and then trigger targeted offers or fixes. They model lift and rewards liability so that investment can follow behavior change. Journey maps freeze a tense customer moment. A live atlas shows where small failures block the next purchase and coordinates fixes across channels. Inside the business, spending becomes about precision. Simulators forecast lift, break-even, and profit impact by segment and moment, so finance are able to see trade-offs before money moves. The payoff? Practical programs that grow trips, expand categories, and raise lifetime value. Guest: Rachel Bicking, EVP of Innovation, Kobie Marketing Host: Rob Markey, Partner, Bain & Company Give Us Feedback.

Because we want to amplify the positives and we want to make sure that we intercept the negative ones." 00:07 — "I think there's been a broader inclination to say, 'Hey, if it's below a certain amount, people don't care.' And this is where personalization becomes really important. If I get delayed checking into my hotel room and I have to go to the next meeting and I don't have time to put my stuff down, ten minutes matters." 00:08 —  "Data-wise, we're always trying to break down customers' interactions [and] rewards into a series of metadata, into a series of features, so that we can make them more explainable at scale." 00:13 — "If personalization is done well, the experience from a customer perspective should be very simple. It should be guided. It should be deliberate."

“Relief seeking often turns into relief dumping, where we offload our stress onto someone else without even realizing it.”In this episode of Business is Human, Rebecca Fleetwood Hession calls out a year-end pattern that drains our nervous systems and strains our relationships at work. As the holidays approach and the pressure to “get everything wrapped up” intensifies, many leaders unintentionally pass their stress onto someone else.

This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and choose rhythms that honor real human capacity during the busiest time of the year.In this episode, you'll learn:Why year-end urgency pushes teams into activation and overwhelmHow relief-seeking turns into stress-dumping and what to do insteadPractical steps to lead with clarity, softness, and shared humanityThings to listen for:(00:00) Introduction(00:43) The year-end hot potato problem(01:59) The overstimulated brain(05:01) Understanding displaced activation(06:53) Grace and humanity during the holidays(10:26) Practical tips for year-end planning(15:40) Reflection questions for leadersConnect with Rebecca:https://www.rebeccafleetwoodhession.com/

Varun Puri, CEO and cofounder of Yoodli, joins the show to talk about using AI role play to transform how people practice for high stakes conversations, from sales calls to job interviews to tough manager chats. He breaks down how Yoodli went from a consumer public speaking tool to a serious enterprise platform used by teams at Google, Snowflake, Databricks, and more, all while staying anchored in one mission, helping humans communicate with confidence. We dig into product led growth, honest feedback loops, and why real human communication will matter even more as AI makes information instant.Key takeaways• Why Yoodli started with public speaking anxiety and grew into an AI role play simulator for any important conversation, not just conference talks or pitch decks• How watching real user behavior inside companies like Google pulled the team into enterprise without abandoning their consumer product• A simple approach to product feedback, talk to end users constantly, then prioritize changes by business impact, renewal risk, and how many people benefit• What it really takes to move from consumer to enterprise, new roles, new processes, and a very different mindset around reliability, security, and expectations• Why Varun draws clear ethical lines, using AI to coach and prepare people, not to replace human judgment in hiring, promotion, or high trust decisionsTimestamped highlights[00:35] What Yoodli actually does today, from solo practice to training sales and go to market teams inside large enterprises[01:43] The original vision, helping people who are scared of public speaking, and the insight that interviews, sales calls, and manager talks are all just role plays[03:37] How the team listens to end users, the channels they rely on, and why the consumer product is still their testing ground for new ideas and experiments[05:20] Following users into the enterprise, why it was an addition and not a full pivot, and how product led growth inside companies like Google works in practice[07:42] The early shock of selling to enterprises, learning about new roles, SLAs, InfoSec, and bringing in leaders from Tableau and Salesforce to build a real B2B engine[11:10] Two paths for AI in sales, tools that try to replace humans versus tools that make humans better, and why Varun has drawn a hard line on what Yoodli will not do[15:26] A future where information is commoditized and instant, and why communication and presence become the real edge for top performers in that world[20:48] Designing for trust and adoption, how Yoodli keeps practice private by default, when data is shared, and why control has to sit with the end userA line worth saving“In a world where AI makes everyone smarter and faster, the thing that will be at the biggest premium is how you communicate as a human with other humans.”Practical ideas you can use• Keep a consumer like surface in your product so you can experiment faster than your enterprise roadmap would ever allow• Treat feedback from large customers like a queue you rank by renewal risk, strategic value, and number of users helped, not as a list you must clear• Look for product led growth signals inside your user base, if thousands of people in one company are using you, someone there probably wants a team level solution• Draw explicit boundaries for your AI product, write down what you will not automate, so you can build trust with users and buyers over the long termCall to actionIf you care about the future of sales, interviewing, and communication in an AI rich world, this conversation is worth a listen.

There is no “tomorrow.”You never wake up there. You only ever wake up here.In this solo episode of Unwritten Chapters, I talk honestly about what it means to live in the now when you've got a brain full of flashbacks, burnout, and worst-case scenarios. As a former army medic and paramedic turned author in recovery, I'm not preaching “good vibes only.” I'm talking about trying to stay present when your nervous system is cooked and you're still waiting for the other shoe to drop.If you're a nurse, medic, frontline worker, partner of a veteran, or someone in or around recovery who is exhausted, trauma-literate, and allergic to bullshit, this is for you.In this episode, we get into:Why “tomorrow” is the lie your brain keeps selling youHow trauma, anxiety, and addiction keep us anywhere but hereThe quiet grief of feeling like life is always on holdPractical, imperfect ways to come back to right nowGiving yourself permission to want more than just survivingThis isn't self-help sparkle. It's one guy who's been to rock bottom, still trying to make sense of life after trauma, addiction, and hitting the wall at high speed.If you connect with dark humour, honest storytelling, and real talk about PTSD, mental health, and recovery, pull up a chair. You're not the only one trying to figure out how to actually live the one day you've got.

Whether you're someone who avoids conflict or someone who charges straight in, this principle applies. When you notice you're getting furious, pause and get curious instead." - Louise and Alice"Every time I heard feedback, I was collapsing it into 'you're not good enough.' Then someone finally said: 'You know this feedback isn't that I don't like you, right?' It was a light bulb moment." - Alice Driscoll"Just because you're really good at something doesn't mean you enjoy it. And just because other people think you should keep pursuing it doesn't mean you should have to." - Louise van Haast"I wasn't expecting to have this conversation. I need some time to reflect so I can give you a considered response." - Ripcord phrase for exiting conversationsABOUT LOUISE VAN HAAST AND ALICE DRISCOLL:Louise van Haast and Alice Driscoll are executive coaches, conflict specialists, and co-authors of Smart Conflict.

In this episode of Recounting Life Lessons, Sione and Alana sit down with author Darrow Kirkpatrick to explore the life lessons behind his powerful memoir, Two Sticks, One Path: A Journey Beyond Fear on the Colorado Trail. Darrow is an early-retired civil and software engineer with a lifelong passion for outdoor adventure. Over six years, he section-hiked the rugged, almost 500-mile Colorado Trail—one of the highest and most demanding long-distance trails in the United States. And he did it while managing significant physical limitations, hiking on specialized forearm crutches, and working through lifelong anxiety and the lingering effects of past mental health struggles. Darrow's book, Two Stick, One Path, weaves together things like high-stakes climbing stories from Yosemite, the tension between personal goals and family life, spiritual growth through meditation, and the reality of pushing through fear when the mountains and life feel overwhelming. In our conversation, we talk about preparation, mindfulness, and how we sometimes kill our courage worrying about things that could happen, even though they probably won't. We also talk about how choosing to face difficulty on purpose helped him retrain his mind, rebuild confidence, and reshape the way he sees his life and capabilities. And you'll want to stick around until the end where Alana highlights and talks about several powerful takeaways from Darrow's story that can help you navigate and manage your own fears with more confidence, move forward with greater courage, and see your path with more clarity. IN THIS EPISODE: What Darrow Kirkpatrick learned while hiking the almost 500-mile Colorado Trail with forearm crutches How he worked through lifelong anxiety and fear on the trail Why worrying about unlikely dangers can hold us back The difference between healthy and wise preparation and overthinking How meditation and mindfulness supported his journey Practical lessons and success principles for building courage and confidence in everyday life LINKS MENTIONED: Darrow's website: https://trailmemoir.com/ Get Two Sticks, One Path: https://amzn.to/4oClGRg (using this link will support this channel as well as Jamal at no extra cost to you) ------------------------------------------------------------------- For our latest insights and things we don't share with the public, become a Sione and Alana Insider.

Traditional Chinese medicine looks at your sex life very differently than Western medicine and honestly, it's VERY refreshing. In this episode, we're joined by Jaiming Ju, a 2nd-generation Chinese medicine practitioner and founder of Kun Health, to talk about how TCM understands libido, pain during sex, ED, arousal, and overall sexual wellbeing. We get into body patterns, energy balance, lifestyle habits, and what your symptoms are actually trying to tell you. We cover: How Chinese medicine understands sex and pleasure. Jaiming explains why sexual health is seen as a major indicator of overall wellbeing, not an isolated issue. Why pain during sex is never “just in your head”. How TCM views dryness, pelvic pain, tension, and discomfort and why it's almost always linked to imbalance, depletion, or circulation issues. Understanding libido changes. How arousal, desire, and lubrication map to warmth, energy, and hormonal patterns + how aging, stress, lifestyle, and depletion impact the body. ED from a TCM perspective. Why erections are about circulation, warmth, and “yang energy,” and what it means when interest and performance don't match. Tongue diagnosis and what it reveals about your sex life. Yes, your tongue really can show dryness, heat, coldness, stress patterns, or issues affecting libido. Why stress and exhaustion shut down desire. How nervous system overload, burnout, and irregular routines drain the body's resources and impact arousal. Practical pleasure support from a Chinese medicine lens. Food, warmth, routines, habits, and small changes that help your body feel safer, softer, and more responsive during sex. How to support long-term sexual health at every age. Daily practices Jaiming recommends to maintain circulation, lubrication, desire, and overall balance. Connect with Jaiming HERE!
