Podcasts about run your life

Send us a textBefore getting into today's podcast with the inspiring Amadou Ba, I want to ask all of you, wherever you are listening, to think about your own life and some of the important things you feel you have been able to accomplish.Maybe that was graduating from high school or university or maybe it was being accepted into a post-graduate masters or PhD program or perhaps it might have been getting your first career-changing job or even being promoted within your organization.Whatever it was, I want you to reflect on the people who believed in you and supported you along this path. Who were these people?When you think about these people, what was it they specifically did that gave you the confidence and belief in yourself to know and understand that you were absolutely on the right path?Today's episode will be the 270th episode I've released on my Run Your Life podcast and the conversation you are about to hear is all about the power of human connection. We are really going to focus on the role that important mentors, educators and coaches have played in our lives in helping us to understand what is possible in our lives.This podcast episode is with the amazing Amadou Ba, former 6ft 10 center who played 4 seasons with the University of Michigan Wolverines Basketball team from 2002-2006.Amadou's story epitomizes what it means to embrace a truly resilient mindset and that when opportunities open up to us in life, we need to honor the talents and strengths we have by working as hard as possible. Doing so not only helps us to  access the best of ourselves, but also pushes us to fulfill the potential we have to make a difference in our lives.What you will hear in this episode is Amadou's deep gratitude and appreciation for the people who believed in him and supported him along his journey to ultimately help him to go on to be a success student-athlete who graduated with a degree from the University of Michigan. As you listen to this episode, I hope you walk away reflecting on all of the people who gave you the support you needed to be successful in your life and that you always remember how important it is to keep giving back in your own ways to continue to make the difference in the world you desire.Although our accomplishments are important, the world is so much more of a better place when we give back to others.In closing, I want to thank my two friends Leticia Carino and Andy Duffield for being a part of this podcast and for sharing their own insight. Their contribution was much appreciated and made this conversation even more meaningful, so thank you Leticia and Andy.So with that, let's now jump into my conversation with the inspiring Amadou Ba.Connect With AmadouLinkedInFacebookAs well, you can connect with Leticia Carino and Andy Duffield as well below: Leticia CarioLinkedInTwitter 'X"Andy DuffieldLinkedIn

This episode is brought to you by Fatty15 and Blueland. When it comes to weight loss, most people rely on the usual strategies—cutting calories and exercising more. But what happens when these methods don't work? And how do we ensure we're losing fat, not muscle? It's time to rethink our approach. Instead of just focusing on the number on the scale, we should prioritize body recomposition—building a stronger, healthier body that supports longevity and resilience as we age. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we bring you a special compilation episode featuring Dhru's conversations with leading experts on why body composition is more important than your scale weight.  Sal Di Stefano, Mind Pump co-founder and fitness expert, explains why body composition matters more than the number on the scale. He breaks down the most efficient and sustainable ways to exercise and highlights the crucial role muscle plays in overall health. Sal also reveals why lasting motivation for a healthier lifestyle must come from within. By adopting practical, sustainable strategies, we can boost energy, improve well-being, and achieve our fitness goals—all while promoting longevity. JJ Virgin shares her top strategies for weight loss, muscle building, and vibrant aging, emphasizing the power of resistance training for sustained fat loss and the importance of tracking personal goals for long-term motivation. Sal Di Stefano began his fitness journey at just 18, quickly rising to prominence as a trainer and opening some of the largest big-box gyms in the California Bay Area. By 24, he launched a wellness-focused fitness studio that combined expertise in hormones, nutrition, gut health, and fitness training. Today, Sal is a highly sought-after expert known for his practical, easy-to-apply insights. As co-host of the Mind Pump Podcast—the world's top fitness and health podcast—he's appeared on hundreds of leading shows and frequently speaks at events for trainers and health practitioners. JJ Virgin is a renowned health and fitness expert, bestselling author, and prominent media personality. With over three decades of experience in the field, she has become a trusted authority in nutrition, weight loss, and wellness. She is the author of four New York Times bestsellers. Virgin actively contributes to the health and wellness community through speaking engagements, online programs, and her podcast, Well Beyond 40.  In this episode, Dhru and his guests dive into: Why weight loss matters less than body composition (1:08) Reframing our approach to exercise and the body's adaptation to fitness (12:41) Hacks to help with fat loss versus weight loss (22:43) Tracking movement and progress (26:10) Testing body composition and the importance of prevention (29:27) Tracking food intake to optimize protein, fiber, and sleep quality (33:09) Aging powerfully and the new normal (44:01) The misconception about bulking up and the reality of muscle building (47:56) Also mentioned: Full episode with Sal Di Stefano Full episode with JJ Virgin Virginia MacColl Oldest Ninja Warrior episode This episode is brought to you by Fatty15 and Blueland.

Hi my loves

When things seem really hard and it feels impossible to understand why we, as humans, do what we do and make the choices we make, it's worth remembering that we all want to be loved, and accepted, and to feel like we're enough, and we're always going to feel better when someone else tells us that we ARE all of those things. Because in that brief moment, we feel less afraid of being NONE of those things…and that fear can truly run everything in our lives if we let it. On today's episode we're talking about finding safety for all of those things within ourselves so that we can stop giving weight to the words of other people and our own inner critic, and start to live our lives from a place of love not fear. Take a listen and then come let me know what you need help with over at www.joryancoaching.com.

We've all faced that negative voice in our life that tells us we can't do something, or that we are not enough. And sometimes, it's caused us to make decisions that don't support who we want to be, as a runner or a person. But there is a way to be stronger than that negative voice, so that you can ultimately be the runner and person that you want to be, and accomplish all the big goals you set out for yourself. For Sandra Mikulic, this was something she learned by overcoming her own self-doubt through finding consistency, believing in herself, and taking actionable steps to be the best version of herself. And that has allowed her to not only run multiple ultramarathons, marathons, and run a 5K every day since Jan 2019; but it has also allowed her to live a fulfilling life where she truly loves herself. Sandra Mikulic, a passionate Canadian runner and proud mother of four, is the creator of Run Your Life magazine, a publication celebrating athletes of all body types and abilities. Sandra discovered her love for running at the age of 43 in 2018, making the shift from treadmill routines to running outdoors.  On January 1, 2019, she set a personal goal to run or walk 5 kilometers every single day—a commitment she has upheld without fail. Sandra has participated in numerous races, including marathons and ultra-marathons, while using her journey to challenge common perceptions about body image in sports. By openly sharing her experiences and personal challenges, she has cultivated a welcoming and supportive community. Inspired by this connection, Sandra founded Run Your Life magazine to encourage others to embrace movement and foster self-acceptance, no matter their size or fitness level. Prepare to be inspired by this episode. Huge thank you to Sandra for coming on the show!

Anxiety can pop up when you least expect it.As an entrepreneur, this can impact your life and business in surprising ways. Even if you don't suffer from anxiety, generally speaking, business owners worry a lot! We worry about the future, our cash flow, our revenue, whether we have enough clients... the worry can be relentless. For those who live with anxiety on top of that, it's a lot to deal with. But there are ways you can manage so that anxiety doesn't run your life. Through coaching my clients and speaking with other business owners, I've observed common areas where anxiety tends to creep in: Social AnxietyI've noticed a significant uptick in social anxiety, especially since COVID-19. Working from home has its perks, but it also makes venturing out feel daunting. To combat this, it's all about taking small steps. Financial AnxietyWe worry about cash flow, revenue, and profitability. Seeing businesses around us close can be heartbreaking and stress-inducing. I've learned to disengage from doom-scrolling and negative news cycles. Instead, I focus on strategies that help maintain a positive mindset. Generalised AnxietyGeneralised anxiety can be crippling, especially when compounded with the pressures of running a business. I had a client who woke up every day anxious about her business. So, she threw that business out, started again with a blank sheet of paper, only doing the things that she really wanted to do. Anxiety is a real and rising issue, particularly among small business owners. If you feel like you need some support to help you manage anxiety, there are some amazing professionals out there. Don't hesitate to reach out for recommendations.What are five or six strategies that help you when you're not feeling great? Write them down, laminate it and keep it close. This simple step can be surprisingly effective.LINKS:Day with the QueenWebsiteFor a copy of Emma's book, 'Go-getter: Raise your mojo, shift your mindset and thrive' – https://www.emmamcqueen.com.au/book/Mentioned in this episode:Join Thriving Women Todayhttps://tea-with-the-queen.captivate.fm/thriving-women

Proverbs 4:23 NCV says "Be careful what you think because your thoughts run your life." At an intellectual level, we understand the importance of our thinking and the power of our mindset, but at a personal, soul level, we're not so sure. In the middle of the everyday, how does this work? How do your thoughts run your life? And what can you do about it? In this episode we're breaking down two key pieces of truth anchored inside this passage. We were created with the agency, the free will to shape our thinking, and it may be the greatest gift we have. Understanding this gift and our God-given ability to steward our thought life is key to changing our lives, to feeling better and living more fully.    Today's episode is an encore presentation of one of Beyond Happy's most downloaded episodes. It originally aired in early 2021.    In this episode, you'll learn:   • The relationship between what you think, how you feel and what you do • Why your thoughts are so powerful • The essential piece we often leave out when trying to make change in our lives • Why the freedom to co-create your life may be your greatest gift • What it looks like to steward your thoughts   When life feels complicated, when business feels complicated, and you don't know where to begin when it comes to UNcomplicating it, it's time to SIMPLIFY. High-profitability paired with high quality of life is the mission of my business, and it's the focus of my partnership with clients inside SIMPLIFIED.SIMPLIFIED is my high-touch, white-glove coaching and consulting intensive for creatives and coaches, and applications are currently closed.

Hello everyone! I hope that everyone is well! In this podcast episode, I explore the power of positivity and how it extends beyond mere optimism about life's events to how we choose to perceive and react to them. Life's unpredictability often presents challenges, but within those moments lie opportunities for grace and growth. I emphasise the importance of mindfulness, gratitude, and self-compassion as tools to maintain a positive outlook. By staying present, appreciating the small blessings, and treating ourselves with kindness, we can navigate life's storms with resilience and find beauty even in adversity.

My guest today is the brilliant and inspiring Ila Edgar, a leadership development coach and trust-builder for organizations and businesses. Ila's story is a testament to the resilience we all require when challenged by  life's mental and emotional obstacles. She deeply believes that who we are is how we lead and that being great leaders starts with us. It also requires honesty, looking inside of ourselves and committing to making real changes in our lives. In our conversation today, we talk about early days in her life, the strengths she developed and the challenges she had to overcome that ultimately led her on to the path of leadership coaching. In addition to this, we also cover the themes of resilience, self-compassion, knowing our own boundaries, and embracing vulnerability as keys to our own growth and learning. Most importantly, Ila opens up about serious health struggles she is currently going through and not only what this has taught her about herself, but how it has helped to shape her journey as a wife, mother and coach. As you listen to this episode today, you will see that there is no doubt that Ila is meant to do the work she is doing to serve the world.

Today's episode was recorded in the studio of American Community School of Amman in Jordan which is located on the boarders of Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Palestine. A big shoutout and very special thanks to my inspirational friend Mo Hourani and his team at the American Community School of Amman for hosting the Compassion Summit, an event devoted to promoting peace.What ACS in Jordan believes is that "When there is no compassion there can be no peace, and that when we know compassion, we then might know peace."I was honored to have been invited to be a keynote speaker alongside 2 inspiringly, compassionate humans doing amazing work to make a difference in the world in their own unique ways, Kathy Kelly and LeeAnne Lavender.This chat covers a lot of ground, but in particular what it is that both Kathy and Leanne feel compelled to share through their work, what being self-compassion means, and how we can all take action on being more compassionate in a world that needs people to step up and be more kind and caring. Kathy will share the real story behind the beautiful short song you heard in the introduction to this podcast which was sung by two students at the school here in Jordan. Special thanks to Dunia and Faye for taking the time to record this song and share it with me. You are brilliant humans and ACSA is lucky to have you both as their students.Kathy is an international peace activist from the United States. She is an author and one of the founding members of Voices in the Wilderness, and is currently a co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Nonviolence.

Her recent travel has focused on Afghanistan and Gaza, along with domestic protests against U.S. drone policy. She has been arrested more than 60 times at home and abroad, and has written of her experiences among targets of U.S. military bombardment and inmates of U.S. prisons. LeeAnne cares a lot about compassion, storytelling and service. She is a storyteller and poet, as well as a coach and facilitator for international educators; she spends a lot of time exploring the power of stories to connect people in ways that promote peace, empathy and kindness.

In this episode, I dive deep into the insanity of to-do lists and the unrealistic expectations we attach to them. Be it the societal conditioning that ties productivity to self-worth, it's crucial to change our perspective. Your to-do list isn't a dictator; it's just words on paper. Learn the power of realistic expectations, the art of celebrating small victories, and the importance of building self-trust. Listen to discover how detaching your worth from productivity can lead to a more fulfilling and balanced life.

In today's episode, I sit down with Jean-Paul Circelli, head football coach at the University of Windsor in Ontario, Canada. This episode is a special one for me as I once played 5 seasons on this football team back in the 1990's as a quarterback and punter. It was through this experience that I not only developed myself as a student athlete, but was also able to build a supportive network of close friends that stands strongly to this day. Jean-Paul and his dedicated coaching team have been instrumental in the Lancer football team's resurgence, emphasizing a holistic approach to player development. Beyond wins and losses, they focus on nurturing personal excellence and character growth in their student-athletes help best prepare them for life after football one day.In a world where young athletes face mounting pressures exacerbated by social media and academic demands, in our conversation, Jean-Paul offers insights into addressing the mental health crisis that is currently plaguing many young athletes. Through fostering vulnerability, learning from failure, and deepening connection, he cultivates a supportive environment where his athletes and fellow coaches can thrive.We also explore the importance of feedback, highlighting Jean-Paul's approach to constructive criticism and the growth-oriented coaching framework that he and his fellow coaches embrace. Whether you're a leader in business, a parent, or simply striving for excellence in your pursuits, this episode offers invaluable lessons applicable to any journey of personal growth, development and achievement.Tune in as we uncover wisdom and learning that transcends the field of play. Please share this episode with anyone you know who may be seeking inspiration and guidance on finding their own path to excellence. Thank you.

How many times have you asked yourself, “what's my purpose”?  If you're like most of us, probably too many times to count.  As we get older, the question seems to get a little louder.  Today's guests on the Run Your Life Podcast are just the dynamic duo you need to provide you with proactive, intentional tools to help you along that journey.  Charles Feltman and Ila Edgar are both executive and leadership coaches offering a distinctive twist on finding your purpose and creating meaning in your personal and professional life.   They achieve this through Charles' trademarked model described in his book, The Thin Book of Trust and their growing podcast, Trust on Purpose. In today's episode, expect to hear many things that are sure to provide you with a fresh perspective that you probably haven't considered before.  This fresh perspective allows you to look at your current situation differently and thus move you in the right direction.  Both readily admit they don't have all the answers and they are by no means perfect.  They are human just like the rest of us.  What they have is experience, expertise, empathy, and the courage to confront!Mind shifting truths to listen for in today's episode:1.     Trust is foundationalWhen your team or family is built upon trust, you will outperform your wildest dreams and performance objectives.2.     Boundaries and self-expression are okayMany of us learn from our families of origin to suppress feelings, not express our needs, or not set boundaries.  Charles and Ila help us realize that all of this is okay and is vital in establishing trust in our homes and workplaces.3.     Life knocksWhen we fail to do what's mentioned above, it can have damaging repercussions later in life.  Learn how to develop resiliency and better manage adversity when it occurs.4.     WAIT“Why Am I Talking?”  We all have heard that the “good Lord gave us two ears and one mouth for a reason”.  However, using Charles' WAIT model is the master's level for listening.5.     You DO have a choiceOftentimes in life we tell ourselves we don't have a choice.  Charles fundamentally disagrees and believes you can unleash incredible personal power by simply recognizing that you always have a choice.6.     Perception is reality.  But is it really?Ila stresses that we need to withhold our personal judgements when we interact with our world.  Or examine why we are judging and how we got there.  Many times, it's not what people are doing to us, it's simply how they are behaving that is worth exploring more.  7.     Who we are is how we leadSelf-awareness and authenticity are keys to great leadership.  We as humans, all bring our own unique life experiences to everything we do.  Those who excel as leaders recognize this and invest great amounts of time and effort in better understanding that so they can maximize their own effectiveness as well as the effectiveness of those around them.  Find more at LinkedIn:Charles FeltmanIda EdgarPlease be sure to subscribe to my Run Your Life podcast, much appreciated.

Today's episode features one of the greatest, most respected, and beloved commentators in Canadian sport broadcast history, Mr. Rod Black. As soon as you hear Rod's voice, you will know immediately that he was destined for a career in broadcasting.Sportsnet president Scott Moore met with and told all the on-air talent, “You don't have to be a jerk to be a star. Just look at Rod Black.”One of Rod's favorite quotes is something his father used to tell him often. He would tell Rod, “If you find a job you love, you'll never work another day in your life”. Rod took that to heart and dropped out of college at the age of 19 to pursue his career in broadcasting and the rest, as they say, is history. More than 40 years later, Rod has reached the pinnacle of his profession and continues to fearlessly reinvent himself. In this episode, Rod shares pearls of wisdom hehas collected along his journey that have helped him in both his professional and personal life. Rod's enthusiasm and endless supply of positivity and energy are sure to inspire you to greatness.Some themes covered in this podcast include: 1. Community: Many people throughout Rod's personal and professional life provided him with “nudges” to discover and pursue his life's purpose. He is a firm believer in the need to have the right people around you.2. Resilience: You need to treat your lowest bottom as a trampoline and let it propel you to get back up and continue to move forward.3. Inner Voice: Pay attention to it. Whereas many people have a negative inner voice, Rod provides insight on how to foster a positive inner voice. Trust your own script.4. Acronyms for success: ABC, ICE, WIN, BED: Probably the foundation of Rod's personal belief system and something he learned very early from a coach. Listen for them in the podcast and write them down and keep them where you can see them every day.5. Feedback: Be willing to seek and accept criticism and feedback.6. Patterns: Your life is full of patterns. Invest the time to study, learn, and act based on what you learn from them.7. Service: Play it forward! Live a life of service to others. You may not have money to donate but there are many ways to invest in the lives of others.

In today's episode, Andy connects with former professional baseball player and current Toronto Blue Jays' TV analyst and commentator Joe Siddall. A quote that comes to mind with this episode is this: “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free” This quote attributed to Michaelangelo in reference to one of his sculptures. However, it also applies to Joe Siddall. He is a walking monument to what it means to have an attitude of gratitude. So much so that his daughter MacKenzie created her own brand to encourage the practice of 'gratitude' in order to help others live up to their potential.One of the special things that Joe demonstrates for us is that many of his core beliefs and codes of conduct are actually well-established mindfulness and optimal performance concepts that each of us has inside of us. We just need to learn to look for them. And just like Michaelangelo, if we can simply continue to carve until we set our own talents free, we, too, can create a life that is a beautiful work of art.As you listen to this podcast, see how many of Joe's “Kevinism's” come through. These “Kevinism's” are the inspiration behind many of Joe's expressed beliefs. You'll learn why from the interview and will definitely want to hear it from Joe himself.Some of the concepts and themes Joe has practiced and lived himself are listed below. You are sure to hear others as you listen to this interview with Andy.1. Live life with an attitude of gratitude2. Keep moving forward3. We have to take action to realize the opportunities we are given4. Be adaptable5. Be present6. Competence leads to confidence which leads to performance7. You can quiet your inner critic8. Lean on others for support and guidanceJoe has a professional baseball career that spans 13 years playing in the big leagues for three teams; the Montreal Expos, Florida Marlins and the Detroit Tigers. Known as a defensive specialist, his skills were excellent and this is the one of the main reasons why he was able to rise the ranks he did in professional sport. This episode is about so much more than his playing days as a professional athlete, but more so how one lives a life rooted in the things that matter most. Through love, life, death and grief, Joe and his family have learned that gratitude and appreciation are the keys to finding meaning and purpose in this one life that we are offered. Hoping you find some takeaway value in this discussion with the inspiring Joe Siddall.

“Does that own me, or do I own it?” In today's episode, Andy is talking with Herb Thompson, retired Army Green Beret. And they cover a lot of ground. Herb has had the deck stacked against him many times throughout his life. Any one of them could have easily overtaken him and changed the trajectory of his life. However, that very quote at the beginning has allowed him to keep things in perspective and keep them in order.Herb grew up living a life of poverty in a trailer park. However, instead of allowing his humble beginnings to keep him down, he used it to drive him. He saw many people living around him in the trailer park who had given up and were living defeated lives. When thinking back about those days, Herb sees examples of his core value of positivity throughout.Another mantra he adopted during his special forces training was to “keep stepping, one more step, one more step.” He has applied that to his daily life and shares what it means with Andy.Herb has written a book to help military men and women successfully transfer out of the military and into civilian life. It's called the Transition Mission: A Green Beret's approach to transition from military service. After spending 20 years in the military, Herb found himself at another one of those crossroads. He joined the military at 17 and it's the only job he ever had. What do I do now? How do I get a civilian job? For that matter, what job am I qualified to get? How do I find my calling into a new career. As you might imagine, Herb's advice and mantra is “Own your journey!” He relied on the skills he learned in the Army and applied them to help him in his career transition. The first thing he did was to get an MBA from Cornell. He knew he was lacking the business language and experience, so he kept taking one more step, one more step. He also intentionally engaged in informational interviews with people in many different professions so he could get a better understanding of those careers. It really served two purposes. First, he learned a lot about business and careers. Second, he met a lot of people. He built an amazing network that has served him well in many ways.Herb admits that his life is as fulfilling today in his new ventures as he was in the military. The last thing I'll encourage you to listen for in the interview is Herb's strong sense of who he is. He knows that if he is happy with himself, he'll be able to help those around him and make them happy as well. Herb is constantly reminded of this concept by his 18-year-old son. When Herb mentions him in the interview, you can almost hear him smiling. His son has Aspergers and marches to the beat of his own drum and Herb couldn't be prouder. He presents his true, authentic, vulnerable self to the world and if you like him. Great. And if you don't like him? That's okay too. You can't make everyone happy, so you might as well make yourself happy. Good advice from Herb. Hope you find value in this discussion. Please share with anyone who you feel will benefit from listening.

This week, Andy interviews Professor Thomas Curran, Department of Psychological and Behavioral Science at the London School of Economics. His writings have appeared in TIME magazine, the Harvard Business Review, the New Scientist, the Wall Street Journal, and the New York Times just to name a few. He is fresh off launching his debut book, The Perfection Trap: Embracing the Power of Good Enough. He also delivered a TedMed talk on the subject which has garnered more than 3 million views. Not surprisingly, he is widely regarded as the world's leading expert on perfectionism.Society seems to value the concept of perfectionism, but Professor Curran has a much different take on the subject. Not only does he identify the havoc-wreaking cause underlying perfectionism, he also provides healthy strategies to recognize, overcome, and manage it. Professor Curran even shares what his own battle with perfectionism looks like and how it could have prevented him from rising to his place of prominence on the subject.Hear how perfectionism almost prevented him from delivering his Ted Talk on the subject and how it almost prevented him from writing one of the most powerful and groundbreaking chapters of his new book.Maybe…just maybe, if even a world-renowned psychologist, author, and professor struggles with the ill effects of perfectionism, we can learn to treat ourselves with more kindness in our efforts to deal with it as well.Professor Curran says one of his primary purposes in life is to “bust myths” related to perfectionism, chiefly that it is good for us. Rather than benefit us, it actually blocks us from success and happiness and can result in many adverse psychological issues such as anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation.He also discusses three dimensions of perfectionism that you will find fascinating; 1) self-oriented perfectionism 2) Socially prescribed perfectionism and 3) Other-oriented perfectionism.In probably his most controversial assertion, Professor Curran highlights the societal and systemic causes of perfectionism. He argues that individual solutions don't work when it's a societal/systemic problem to begin with. When you consider that US students take more than 112 standardized tests from kindergarten to twelfth grade, it's no wonder that our students focus on these scores and derive self-value (or lack of) from them. Then you add in the influence of social media, and the fact that everyone else seems to have a perfect life leaving us all to wonder why ours is not.Hopefully, you will be so intrigued and have so many “ah-ha!” moments while listening to this conversation, that you'll wonder where the hour went. You'll love Thomas' affable, humble approach to life and living and buy his book so that you can learn more about how perfectionism may be impacting your life.Connect With Thomas: TwitterLinkedInWebsiteAs well, you can find Thomas' Ted Talk here.

Ever wonder about the meaning of life? In this episode, Andy and Patrick explore this very question from a truly unique and emotional perspective that is certain to encourage you to reexamine your own thoughts on the matter. Patrick shares his power list of 5 things he believes every human is searching for.Patrick's list is not a cliched list based on formal scientific research. Instead, it's based on his personal journey that began as an “unsupervised” child in Brooklyn, New York, in the early 60s and is still ongoing at 60 years of age, shaping him into the luminary he is today. Patrick's list is based on hard-earned life lessons as a homeless alcoholic at his lowest point to his soaring success of becoming a recording artist with the likes of Sade, Chuck D (Public Enemy) and Dan Zanes with many other stops in between. With 23 years of sobriety behind him, Patrick puts his philosophy of life on full display through one very poignant story of having his bicycle stolen in this episode. You get the full range of his process in this one story.  You see that he experiences the full range of human emotion but ultimately returns to his place of equilibrium due to the embeddedness of his own personal philosophy. He has the same initial response that any of the rest of us would have upon learning that something had been taken from us. That we have been violated or disrespected. However, he processes that experience, sometimes consciously, sometimes unconsciously and returns back to his place of gratitude to get back on track. A key thread throughout Patrick's story, whether in childhood or adulthood, is the idea of the inner voice or critic. This voice often tells us we aren't good enough, nobody loves us, or we can't overcome this. And in many cases, we accept it at face value. However, Patrick's response is to take it under advisement and consciously make his own decision. Patrick shows us that we do not have to accept the inner critic's assessment. He also makes the point that “the mind is a wonderful servant, but a terrible master.” He believes we have much to unlearn from what the inner critic has convinced us over time. The beauty is that we can!Today, Patrick has many roles: philosopher, musician, artist, author, and grandfather, to name a few. However, after this interview, I would like to recognize one more role for him. He is a “spiritual being having a human experience.” His understanding of the human condition is uncanny and is derived from the full range of experiences he has hadthroughout his journey with people from all walks of life. He has taken that lifetime of experience and formulated an incredibly resilient and awe-inspiring perspective that works for him. After listening to this podcast, I hope it works for you as well. For additional insight into Patrick's life, check out the inspiring video featuring him and produced by Green Renaissance (now called Reflections of Life) entitled Am I Worthy? After only a couple of weeks of availability, it has racked up more than 55,000 views and is generating an enormous amount of buzz with more almost 1,400 comments -- a true testament to the power of Patrick's message.

“What will they think?”    The opinions of other people weigh more heavily on us than we might be willing to admit. The truth is that we spend a lot of time and energy thinking about what we imagine other people might think about us. And I say imagine – what we IMAGINE other people might think of us – because we rarely know what other people are really thinking.   Are other people's opinions – real or imagined – running your life? It's something a lot of us struggle with. It impacts the decisions we make, it influences how we show up in the world, it often adds to our stress and discontent and is rarely helpful. The truth is that many of us are going through our days, living our lives based not on what is true about ourselves or what WE think about ourselves, but what WE THINK other people's opinions are about us.   On this episode of BEYOND, you'll learn:   • Why we easily believe and often value what others think about us • What other people's opinions of us has to do with our survival • How trusting in others' opinions of you holds you back and keeps you from living a whole, full life • Why we might find ourselves in the middle of a life that looks and feels very different than we thought it would • The one belief that leads us to outsource our opinions and decisions • Living your life vs. living a life based on what others think you should do • 3 things you can do to stop letting other people's opinions to run your life • The connection between what you fear and what you value   I get goosebumps thinking about what is possible in your life and business when you learn how to leverage your mindset and your messaging. If you're ready to make 2024 a different kind of year, if you're tired of spinning your wheels and you're ready for mindset and business support that will help you simplify, see more sales and create the kind of life and business you're excited to wake up to, the kind that serves not only your clients but you and your family well, I want to invite you to apply for private 1:1 coaching. Working with me privately is kind of like having a business therapist, marketing strategist and personal trainer for your brain all-in-one.

Run Your Life Like a Business Not a day goes by without someone asking how to get what they want. I almost always say, "It's all about return on investment." After all, it would be a shame to work hard toward your goals and end up with less than you started - right? That's why you should run your life like a business: 1) Decide what you do when you are living a happy life. Be very specific. 2) Be flexible in your approach. When you find what works, lock it in, refine your method, and keep doing it. 3) Set benchmarks and measure your progress. You can only get where you are going when you know where you are. 4) If you don't achieve your milestones, immediately adjust and get back on track. Life is better when you get a positive return on your efforts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hey friends!Today's episode is on a topic I have and still struggle with at times, letting my feelings run my life.One of my favorite quotes about feelings is from Jonathan Pokluda. He says, "your feelings are real, just not reliable."I've found this to be so true in life and you may have too.If I don't feel like exercising so I choose not to, over time I will become unhealthy.If I don't feel like paying my bills bc they're too expensive, eventually I will not have anything.The point here is just because you feel a certain way doesn't mean that's a good barometer for wise decision making, it's more than often not.We have to learn to process our feelings, seek wisdom and make decisions based on what is true and best for us, not just how we fell in a given moment.Wisdom is doing what's right even when you may not feel like it because you know it's best.Hope something here was helpful for you or someone you know.Thanks for taking the time to listen!Until next time, God bless!-KyleLets connect on social media:Instagram: instagram.com/k.david__/Facebook: facebook.com/kyledavidmusic/Twitter: twitter.com/kyle_crabtree_TikTok: kyle.david___Snapchat: kyledavid970Linkdin: Kyle DavidWatch on YouTube:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqTMk53w-pGoXurdppIC_Lw/featured?view_as=subscriber

My incredible guest this week is Sandra Mikulic. Sandra is a self-described 250-pound runner who has done a minimum of 5K a day of running or walking for the past 1562 days or four years, three months, and 10 days. She's also the founder and editor of Run Your Life magazine, which is a publication for athletes of all shapes and sizes and the only body-positive athletic magazine out there.   Sandra shares her 5K-a-day journey with us and how she came to start it in 2019. She's letting us in on her inner mean girl thoughts, her experience with trolls online, and how she decided to drop all expectations and create a running practice she loves.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://notyouraveragerunner.com/297
