Welcome back to The Resiliency Quest podcast series—where we hand the mic to Adam Mock, leadership author and podcast host, to interview Dr. Doug McKinley about his own book and the five Trailheads that map the journey toward resilient leadership.Today's Trailhead: Self-AwarenessSelf-awareness isn't a soft skill—it's the first summit every resilient leader must face. Too many leaders operate with blind spots they don't even know exist. But what if your most painful feedback or your last big failure was actually an invitation—not an indictment? This episode dives into what it really takes to know yourself beneath the titles, the image, and the performance. We talk about scripts that run your life, feedback that stings (but saves), and the quiet courage required to tell yourself the truth.No mirror. No progress.No reflection. No resilience.To Order Doug's Books: The Resiliency Quest,Mad About Us Visit Doug's Website: https://www.dougmckinley.com/ Receive a Free Leadership Resource: Leadership Guide 

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Aanya explores how high performers can stop guessing about their health and start listening with precision. Guest Tata Rarin—the “world's only health detective”—blends engineering logic, energy work, and bioenergetic testing to translate body signals into clear action. We cover practical self-awareness tools (Vipassana basics, body scanning, breath focus, single-word anchors like “knowing”), how to use data without losing intuition, and why self-awareness is a performance tool—not a soft skill. If you're chasing goals and flirting with burnout, this episode shows how to turn awareness into a measurable advantage.   About the Guest : Tata Rarin helps founders and high achievers decode health and performance by combining bioenergetic testing, digital muscle testing, and mindfulness practices (including 12+ years of Vipassana). Her approach turns subtle body cues into decisions that improve sleep, stress, focus, and strategic execution.   Key Takeaways: Self-awareness is a performance lever—it improves choices, negotiations, and recovery, reducing avoidable mistakes. Start simple: choose a single anchor word (e.g., “knowing”), repeat for 10–20 seconds to re-center during busy days. Use breath awareness (anapanasati) and brief body scans to detect early signs of imbalance before they escalate. For beginners, body sensations are easier to observe than thoughts; build the skill daily in short reps. Pair metrics (sleep, HRV, activity trackers) with felt experience; numbers reveal blind spots high achievers often miss. Morning routine tip: listen to a short, positive audio before messages or meetings to set focus and reduce reactivity. Continuous observation creates choice under pressure—notice bias, adjust state, then act. Awareness practices support business outcomes: clearer thinking, fewer errors, better energy allocation. Reframe “listening” from passive to strategic—it's how you prevent burnout and sustain output. Build the habit: small, daily reps (>21 days) make self-awareness automatic in high-stakes moments.   Medical Disclaimer:This conversation is for educational and informational purposes only and is not medical advice.

Author and Ayurvedic practitioner Heather Grzych sits down with Kirti Tewani to explore a refreshingly holistic and creative approach to beauty, wellness, and Ayurveda. They discuss everything from resisting cultural norms like gray hair and navigating natural beauty influences, to the lessons we inherit from our mothers about health. Kirti shares insights on the joy of skincare routines, the role of Ayurvedic practices like oil pulling, and the importance of listening to what our bodies truly need: including sleep, stress management, and understanding subtle cues, or our “inner body voice.” They dive into how travel, local culture, and city living affect wellness, why no one owns Ayurveda, and how even reading a single book can shift your perspective on your body and the world. Along the way, they explore how beauty and wellness are inseparable, the power of silence, and why age isn't always the culprit behind back pain -  all underscoring a deeply personal, mindful, and culturally rich approach to health.

We start with a simple truth: if something triggers you, it owns you. From marriages strained by defensiveness, to children calling out their father's lack of emotional intelligence, Chad shows how unchecked reactions erode trust, respect, and legacy.His own turning point came when his son told him he had “zero emotional intelligence.” Instead of firing back, Chad began the slow work of asking why every sharp word stung—and what it revealed about his need for respect, affirmation, and value.We explore how men often hide behind discipline, how protection and fear shape family dynamics, and why “being open” is useless if you don't create a safe environment for truth. The conversation turns personal—broken trust, blended families, strokes, and the moment Chad realized decades of construction projects weren't a legacy if his family couldn't stand him.The fix isn't perfection. It's self-awareness. Triggers are symptoms. And the healing comes when you let the people you've hurt tell you the truth—and you listen.TL;DR* Triggers own you until you own them.* Overreactions reveal insecurity, not reality.* Emotional intelligence starts with self-awareness, not slogans.* Legacy is people, not projects.* Leaders (and fathers) go first—healing is contagious.Memorable lines “Anything that triggers you is telling you more about yourself than the other person.” “Legacy isn't bridges or hotels—it's your kids wanting to talk to you.” “If you don't create a safe environment, your ‘openness' is just virtue signaling.”Guest Chad Brignac — Transformationalist consultant, speaker, and author of Blend Don't Break, focused on self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and healing through small shifts.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/chadmbrignac/Why this matters Whether at work or at home, unchecked triggers destroy trust. Healing them isn't just about avoiding fights—it's about building a legacy of respect, connection, and compassion.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

Tammy drops a truth bomb right from the start: Our emotions, not our thoughts, motivate us. This episode is a quick, hard-hitting guide on how your emotions can either drive you forward or keep you and your team stuck in a pattern of limiting beliefs. Tammy provides a four-point framework to help you master self-awareness, manage your emotional triggers, and turn your emotional intelligence into the "entry ticket" for every successful conversation.   Key Takeaways for Leaders Emotions Win: We move in the direction of the dominant emotion. If you don't own your emotions, they own you and will hijack your team's success. The Power Pause: When emotions start to rise, push the pause button, take a breath, and ask the next best question to slow down the spin. The Real Raw Material: Emotions are not the enemy; they are the raw material of trust, connection, and performance. Words Create Pictures: The language you use creates a visual in your mind, and you attach emotions to that picture, which directly creates your performance. Change the words, change the outcome.   The 4 Points for Emotional Mastery Awareness is Your Entry Ticket: Your self-awareness is the entry ticket to every conversation and problem-solving at every level. If you are dysregulated, you cannot be situationally aware of others. Vacancy is as Dangerous as Volatility: Retreating, sitting silent, and vacating a difficult moment is just as damaging to trust as blowing up. It communicates a "No Vacancy" sign that pushes people away. Self-Efficacy Fuels Collective Efficacy: If key players on your team lose the belief that they can succeed (self-efficacy), it bleeds into the whole team's belief (collective efficacy). Words Create Pictures, Pictures Create Performance: Be intentional about the words you and your team use, as the visualizations attached to them pre-determine your results.   Actionable Tools & Quotes Quote: "Your emotional awareness and ability to handle feelings will actually determine your success and happiness." — John Gottman Quote: "If you don't own your emotions, they own you." The 24/72 Rule: When hijacked by emotions, utilize the 24-hour push-pause option (or 24/24/24) to process, go back to the conversation, and check in again. Your Challenge: Master self-awareness by tuning into your physical and mental triggers (heart rate, gut feeling) before you engage.   Leadership is not a solo sport—it requires self-awareness and emotional awareness.

In this episode we're talking about the truths we often avoid — the ones that feel too heavy, too risky, or too painful to face. These are the truths about ourselves, our relationships, and our lives that we push aside in the name of comfort, control, or keeping the peace. But avoiding them doesn't make them disappear. It only keeps us stuck in the very patterns that drain us. Together, we'll explore why these truths are so hard to look at, how they show up in everyday life, and what begins to shift when we stop running from them. If you've ever felt that quiet nudge that something isn't working — but you've been afraid to name it — this conversation is for you. Three Takeaways 1.    Clarity is freeing, even when it hurts. Avoiding truth costs you more than facing it. 2.    Truth builds self-trust. Every time you admit reality, you strengthen your ability to handle it. 3.    Facing truth is an act of courage. And it opens the door to healing, better choices, and peace.   Avoiding truth  doesn't protect us.  It only drains us, leaks out sideways, and keeps us living smaller than we're meant to.     Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

When it comes to startup success, few voices are as insightful as Rich Hagberg and Tien Tzuo. On this episode of “Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different,” these two innovators unveiled the complex tapestry of traits, behaviors, and pitfalls that define great founders. With decades of psychological research and hands-on experience in the tech ecosystem, they've distilled their findings in their new book, Founders, Keepers: Why Founders Are Built to Fail and What It Takes to Succeed. This lively, honest conversation goes far beyond the usual business platitudes, aiming to equip listeners, whether aspiring entrepreneurs, seasoned founders, or investors, with tools for self-awareness, adaptability, and ultimately, building companies that last. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   The Double-Edged Sword of Founders: Why Strengths Can Be Weaknesses One of the core insights that Hagberg and Tzuo bring forward is the “double-edged sword” nature of founder psychology. Successful founders often possess massive vision and creative drive, seeing the future before others do and inspiring teams with almost evangelical zeal. Yet, these very strengths can morph into ticking time bombs as companies grow. Founders are frequently high in vision but far less gifted in execution or relationship building. Hagberg's decades of data, including 50+ measured personality elements and 46 leadership competencies, reveal consistent patterns: founders often struggle to manage and scale companies beyond their own shadow. As Hagberg observes, those strong on visionary skills can be “allergic to structure,” resisting the very systems and processes that enable growth and stability. Tien Tzuo, drawing on his own journey as a founder, recounts the moment when his company started unraveling as it outgrew his initial hands-on approach. The culture suffered, teams fragmented, and productivity declined. Only by honestly confronting his own leadership shortcomings and seeking help from coaches like Hagberg, was he able to pivot and build an organization beyond himself. The lesson is clear: self-awareness is not optional; it's the foundation for sustainable success.   The Critical Role of Self-Awareness, Adaptability, and “Recovering Founders” Delving deeper, Lochhead, Hagberg, and Tzuo discuss a trait that repeatedly separates successful founders from those destined to “blow up”: brutal, reflective self-awareness. Hagberg's research shows that founders who actively seek feedback, reflect on both successes and failures, and are open to learning are dramatically more successful than their peers. It's not just about innate curiosity; it's about the willingness to recognize weakness, hire complementary strengths, and genuinely adapt as the organization matures. This journey often requires what the guests jokingly call becoming a “recovering founder,” someone who learns the hard way that vision alone won't scale an enterprise. The most successful founders are those who create adaptable organizations, listen keenly to advisors and employees, and deliberately build processes for collective decision-making. They reserve their opinions in meetings, choosing instead to solicit diverse viewpoints before weighing in; a counterintuitive move that leads to more honest conversations and smarter strategy. The inability to adapt, on the other hand, is lethal. Data from Hagberg's cohorts shows that unsuccessful founders are consistently more egotistical and stubborn, craving to be right over being successful and cultivating environments where disagreement is stifled. This leads to what Hagberg terms “sunflower bias”; teams that simply turn to follow the founder, rather than challenging assumptions or uncovering blind spots.   Building Teams, Accountability, and the Myth of the Asshole Genius

To connect with others, you have to get out of your own head.Whether presenting to millions on live television or talking to just one person, Dan Harris knows that the quality of every interaction depends on the presence you bring to it.Harris is a former national news anchor for ABC News and is now the host of the 10% Happier podcast and author of 10% Happier and Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics. As he knows from experience, there's power in “Waking up to something fundamental, that the mind is out of control, and you don't want to be owned by it.” How do we break the pattern of being controlled by our thoughts? Mindfulness and self-awareness, he says, put “distance” between us and our “thoughts and urges and emotions,” enabling us to connect with ourselves and others with greater consciousness and clarity.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Harris and host Matt Abrahams discuss how mindfulness can transform our communication, sharing strategies for deeper listening, responding versus reacting, and reflecting what others say back to them. “Relationships are the most important aspect of your happiness,” Harris says. The quality of those connections goes up when “you're “less stuck in your own head.”Episode Reference Links:Dan HarrisDan's Books: 10% Happier / Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics Ep.179 Finding Positive in Negative Emotions: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Ep.180 Unlocking Your Future Self: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Ep.181 Why Happiness is a Direction, Not a Destination: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Ep.182 Stop Chasing Time and Start Owning It: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:51) - On-Air Panic Attack (02:59) - Managing Communication Anxiety (04:01) - Nervousness Before Live Audiences (05:48) - Meditation Misconceptions (09:36) - Responding vs. Reacting (12:07) - Mindfulness & Productivity (15:11) - Lessons from Interviewing (17:19) - The Final Three Question (25:14) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

We live in a 3d world, a world of sights, sounds, tastes, smells and things to touch. So it might be normal to forget that much of what we see, smell, hear, taste and touch came from someone's inner world, their knowledge.

There's emotional, interpersonal and even learning how to hear one's own intuitive voice.Join us as we explore and discuss different aspects of knowledge such as:1. Self-Awareness and Acceptance ofpersonality, beliefs, strengths and weaknesses.2. Clarity and Control:Knowledge can lead to a greater sense of clarity and control over your life, as you become more aware of your values, needs, and desires.3. Wholeness and Balance: alignment, rather than masking parts of yourself.4.

Stepping into leadership can feel overwhelming ... especially when you're looking around at how everyone else does it. But here's the truth: no-one else leads like you, because no-one else is you. In this Box of Keys episode, I discuss why the best leaders don't copy someone else's style - they lean into their own strengths and lead in a way that feels authentic. Drawing on Gallup research and years of coaching experience, I share why self-awareness is the key to confident, effective leadership, and how to let go of comparison so you can inspire others in a way that only you can. If you've ever wondered whether you're “doing leadership right”, this conversation will remind you that your unique approach is exactly what your team needs. --The Unlock Moment podcast is brought to you by Dr Gary Crotaz, PhD.

Why do we sometimes refuse help, even when it might be exactly what we need?In this episode I explore what happens when we're feeling sensitised, sensitive, activated or triggered - and why even a simple offer of support can feel like a threat.Together we look at the patterns that sit beneath our instinct to say no: the way our nervous system tries to keep us safe, how dignity and self-concept can override our needs, and why vulnerability can feel so exposing. And we explore the other side too - how accepting help can soothe the body, build trust, and deepen our sense of belonging.This episode feels particularly important in our current times. A chance to build and deepen awareness of our ourselves and others.

Send us a textEver wonder why you keep falling into the same relationship patterns? Or why certain childhood memories still sting decades later? The truth might be uncomfortable: you're living out scripts handed down by your parents—scripts they inherited from their parents before them.This episode dives deep into the generational patterns that shape our lives without our permission or awareness. As your host Corey Berrier reveals his personal journey, you'll recognize how childhood experiences before age seven program your subconscious mind, creating protective masks that once saved you but now suffocate your authentic self. Whether you became the overachiever, the people-pleaser, or the tough guy, these adaptations create a fracture between who you truly are and who you believe you must be to survive.The wake-up call comes when you notice the maddening repetition in your life—different partners but same fights, different jobs but same problems. That's not coincidence; it's your inherited script running on autopilot. But here's the empowering truth: what you inherit isn't your destiny. By making the unconscious conscious, taking responsibility without blame, and establishing daily practices that anchor you through life's storms, you can break free from these patterns. The healing journey isn't about becoming someone new—it's about becoming who you were before the masks.Ready to put down the generational burdens you never asked to carry? Ready to hold the pen that rewrites your story? This episode offers both the compassionate understanding and practical wisdom to help you break the chain and finally live authentically. Your inherited past doesn't have to determine your future.

How to Identify and Rewire the Subconscious "Software" That Runs Your Life   This episode of the Rich Mind Podcast is a follow-up and deeper dive into one of the most powerful forces shaping our lives: our paradigms. Randy and his daughter Adrienne return to dissect the "mental software" we're programmed with from a young age. They discuss how these deep-seated beliefs, often formed before we can even reason, act as a filter that dictates our reactions, creates emotional triggers, and reinforces core wounds like not feeling "lovable" or "worthy." Through personal stories and real-time analysis, they explore how to become aware of this programming, challenge the "black and white" thinking it creates, and reclaim control over your own thoughts, feelings, and actions. This conversation is a practical guide to identifying your own paradigm and beginning the work of rewriting it.   Key Takeaways:   Your paradigm is the subconscious "software" programmed into you during your formative years (ages 0-8) that controls most of your automatic behaviors and beliefs. This mental program acts as a "safety shield," creating emotional triggers to keep you within your comfort zone and away from perceived threats. Many of our deepest struggles and limiting beliefs stem from stories we created in childhood to make sense of events, even if those stories aren't true. The first step to changing your paradigm is awareness: recognizing a trigger in the moment and questioning where the feeling is coming from. We are not our feelings. Separating your identity from your emotions (e.g., saying "I am feeling sad" instead of "I am sad") is a powerful technique to regain control. A powerful mantra to release the need for external validation is: "What's meant for me will find me, and anything else is none of my business." It's never too early and never too late to start the work of understanding and rewriting your own paradigm.   Questions Answered in This Episode:   What is a paradigm and how does it control your daily life? How does our childhood programming affect our adult relationships and success? How are emotional triggers connected to our core wounds and paradigm? How can you become more aware of your own paradigm in real-time? Why do we often feel like we can't put our negative feelings into words? What is the danger of using "I am" statements when describing negative emotions? How can you stop caring about what others think and stay focused on your own path? What practical steps can you take to begin changing your deep-seated programming?   Key People, Concepts, & Terms:   People: Randy Wilson, Adrienne Wilson, Bob Proctor. Concepts: Paradigm, Subconscious Mind, Software/Filter Analogy, Core Wounds (Not Lovable/Worthy), Triggers, Black and White Thinking, I Am Statements, Self-Awareness, Personal Development, Journaling.   Key Episode Timestamps   00:00 - Introduction: Going Deeper into the Concept of Paradigms 02:16 - What is a Paradigm?

Gender is complex. To be as respectful and inclusive as possible, these terms are an acknowledgement that not every woman has a vagina and not every person with a vagina identifies as a woman.

This can be an opportunity to move beyond those traumas within a partner's loving presence and compassion. However, just because you are experiencing flashbacks of sexual trauma does not necessarily mean it's because you feel safe. It could also be your body showing you that you are overwhelmed in the situation, or worse, receiving instinctual warnings that that person, place or timing isn't right for you. Ultimately, it's so important we keep close to the capacity of our won nervous systems at any given moment or sexual encounter particularly if you have experienced sexual trauma. Can you, and hopefully your partner/s, deeply and kindly be with you, “hold space” for you to express, verbally or emotionally, shake, cry, rage, move? Not all partners are equipped for that.

In this episode of the HX podcast, as part of our "Well at Work" series, I had the privilege of speaking with Justin Long, an author who shared his incredible story of resilience. I was so impacted by his journey, which he says truly began when he got sober at age 32 after years as a "raging alcoholic filled with self-loathing". Justin recounts growing up in an emotionally dysfunctional household, shaped by generational trauma, where he was made to feel he had no value. This led him to a life of searching for external validation through alcohol and other harmful behaviors. Justin's path to healing has been a lifelong journey involving AA, a pivotal mentor named Roland, and transformative trauma therapy. We talk about how he learned to develop self-awareness, challenge those negative beliefs instilled in him since childhood, and shift from self-loathing to self-love. He now applies these profound lessons to his leadership role at Spring Hill Equine Veterinary Clinic, where he focuses on knowing himself to lead himself, understanding his team as individuals, and creating a positive culture where people can grow. His message is a powerful reminder that if you don't feel good about who you are, you have the power to change that.

Hey Friend! We throw around words like they're interchangeable when they're not—and the difference matters. Weather vs. climate. Listening vs. hearing. Motion vs. progress. In leadership, we do this with self-awareness and emotional intelligence, treating them like synonyms when they're actually two distinct capabilities. I learned this the hard way as a young lieutenant walking into a room full of colonels and generals during a communication outage, knowing my triggers but needing to apply that knowledge under intense pressure. Self-awareness gave me the foundation, but emotional intelligence changed the outcome.

Want to understand yourself on a deeper level? In this episode, I break down the difference between self-awareness and self-consciousness and I'll show you how to develop true awareness without falling into guilt or shame.
