Podcasts about self improvement

People will betray us in life. They will take from us. We can be hurt and broken and angry about this, or we can use it as Epictetus did—as a reminder of the transient nature of possession.

One of the most common ways guys ruin their dating lives is by putting women on a pedestal. They believe they aren't enough and that they're lucky if a woman agrees to go on a date with them. Women instinctively pick up on this. They'll sense that they have all the power—that they could easily get you if they wanted—which makes you considerably less attractive to them. The easiest way to fix this is by reframing your mindset and starting to believe that you are the prize, and that she's lucky a champion like you is giving her the time of day. In today's episode, you'll learn how to literally rewire your brain so that YOU are the one who chooses HER.

I came across this connection from my book that I'm reading (and it's been a long, ongoing reading of it), “Arete - Activate Your Heroic Potential” by Brain Johnson. He brings up this idea about us looking to be “antifragile” and it's connected to not being fragile - breaking or giving up, the moment life gets challenging. Life does indeed get challenging for ALL OF US… every day… many times a day for sure. Love this part - "Nor are we just resilient - more skillfully dealing with life's challenges and bouncing back a little faster when we get knocked around. When we're ANTIFRAGILE, we use all those challenges as FUEL for our never-ending growth.”  How about that!!  Since we all have challenges, turning them into fuel for us to keep getting better, to keep learning, to keep overcoming, etc!!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Martha Beck is a best-selling author, life coach, and speaker and expert in coping with anxiety. Despite decades of sociology research and coaching, Beck says she'd struggled with anxiety her entire life. She says we live in a global anxiety spiral, and turned to neuroscience to understand why, and how to move past it. Through her research, Beck found that anxiety shuts down the brain's curiosity and creativity, and tapping into them can be life-changing. She opened up to Hoda about her book, "Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose", and shares strategies to change the way they think and live.

It's unfortunate Epictetus isn't more widely read—because when he is, he changes lives.

The greatest work isn't what goes viral, it's what endures. Podcaster, writer, and venture capitalist James Altucher joins Ryan to talk about why podcasting might be doing more harm than good, what makes a medium “healthy” for creativity, why some stories survive history and others disappear, and how the algorithm subtly rewires creators' minds.

I saw a recent post, again from a former student of mine, that opened up my eyes to catch the lessons that they are sharing. Kiara shared how she needs to keep being a bit nicer to herself as she looks back a bit to see that she has accomplished quite a lot over the last couple of years. That her goals keep evolving, as she does too. This is a lesson that I needed to see, when I needed it and her post helped with it.  The quote that came with her thoughts was this: “I'm not everything I want to be yet, but I'm a lot of things I wanted to be 2 years ago, and what a wonderful thing it is to realize that.”  Yep… I needed to realize this too!   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

Spoiler: it's not a job title, a single grand calling, or something you're behind on. Purpose is about becoming more of who you already are, and that starts with self-acceptance. I'll share why I was once skeptical about the whole “find your purpose” idea, and how, through 20+ years of coaching and intuitive work, I've come to see purpose as the everyday joy of living aligned with your truth. Whether it's walking your dog, creating art, or starting that business you've been dreaming about—your purpose is found in what lights you up and connects you back to yourself. If you've ever felt unsure about your direction, or worried you're missing your “big calling,” this episode is a chance to reset that narrative. Listen in and start discovering your purpose—on your terms.    

There was gruffness to the Stoics. A wariness of getting too close or too attached, lest your heart be broken by fortune. But does that mean the Stoics were unfeeling?

389 Identifying and Acting On Problems You Can Solve   We are surrounded by problems everyday of our lives, some manageable and others seeming too monumental to handle alone. Which is why it is so important to build a community of like minded individuals with the same goal of making a true difference.  In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Tessa Clarke discuss the relationship people have with stuff, food waste, and how Tessa's company Olio have been making a real difference in the face of the climate crisis.     Highlights Our relationship with objects, like clothing, that shape our identity.  What do you waste without realizing? How much do you think you throw away in a week? A month? And a year? We all need someone in our corner to help build us up and to help chart a path forward. Building community while also solving problems. Quit wishing things would be better and start making the change yourself.   Quotes “We always think the grass is greener on the other side but it never is.” “What's good for the planet is good for people and vice versa.” “It is honestly exhausting being a founder, trying to drive the change in a world that's set up not to change. So you've got to find ways to reenergize yourself and to keep going, to keep fighting every single day.” Dear Listeners it is now your turn, When you think about those 4 to 5 years that Tessa talked about and that journey of wanting to be entrepreneurial and thinking about it in terms of “what is the problem I can solve?” What is something you could start today, maybe it eventually becomes a side hustle, maybe the side hustle stays a side hustle, or maybe it turns into something more. What is a problem that you've experienced, that maybe you're the person to solve?    And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Tessa Tessa Clarke is the co-founder and CEO of Olio, the world's only neighbour-to-neighbour food-sharing app, and a trailblazing force in the fight against waste. Since launching in 2015 - and as a remote first business - Olio has grown into a global movement with 8 million users, redistributing over 100 million meals and 14 million household items, proving that small actions can drive massive change. Recognised as Veuve Clicquot's Bold Woman of the Year in 2023, Tessa is also a Sifted columnist, an Ambassador for the Better Business Act, and a member of the Small Business Growth Forum, advising the UK Government on SME concerns. With a track record of disrupting industry and mobilising communities, Tessa is a passionate speaker who inspires audiences to rethink business, sustainability, and the power of grassroots innovation. Check out Tessa's LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram! As well as her website Olio, and her TED Talk!   About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

Most entrepreneurs think productivity means learning more: more books, more podcasts, more courses. But Pat Flynn argues that real progress comes from learning just enough to pursue your goals. After getting laid off from his dream job, Pat dove into nonstop learning. But instead of moving forward, he felt stuck, overwhelmed with ideas and no real execution. That experience led to his Lean Learning approach, a strategy that helped him build multiple successful online businesses. In this episode, Pat returns to share why overlearning kills productivity and how content creators and entrepreneurs can cut through information overload, take focused action, and grow their business by doing less but better. In this episode, Hala and Pat will discuss:  (00:00) Introduction (02:03) Why Overlearning Is Killing Your Productivity (06:43) How a Layoff Sparked His Motivation to Take Action (15:18) 80/20 Time Management Rule for Curious Entrepreneurs (24:18) Learn It or Burn It: Evaluating Learning Methods (34:01) AI as a Creative Partner for Entrepreneurs (37:24) The Biggest Learning Mistake Creator Entrepreneurs Make (42:49) Getting Past the “Cringe” Mindset and Getting Started (53:53) The Keystone Question for Smart Decision-Making (57:28) How Power 10 Boosts Innovation and Team Building Pat Flynn is a serial entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of Smart Passive Income, a leading resource for online business education.

When I saw this post, it reminded me that courage can be quiet and not always a loud roar, but it also signaled to me that I can be (and need to be) more courageous in my life for sure.  This came from The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) where it was shared - “Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day, saying, ‘I will try again tomorrow.'”  Sometimes it's the most courageous thing we can do and it's probably something that nobody else will realize… but we will. I'm reminded to simply (yet it's difficult) not give up!!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

It's mid July, which for baseball, means it's the All-Star Break. A great player and coach, Clint Hurdle (@ClintHurdle13) shared this super easy thought for all of us to connect to. “Be a friend. Be a helper. Be kind. That's it.”  In fact, I mentioned in today's episode how I need to reach out to a couple of people - I need to pause this and do that…. There, I feel a bit better reaching out to a few people.  This formula is an easy one to follow. For us to look out to make it a part of our interactions with others, but for sure we need to do the same for ourselves too!  Always things for me to work on to keep getting better & I like it like that.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

In this thought-provoking episode, Brian Wright tackles the dangerous misconception that gathering information alone leads to progress.Have you ever found yourself researching, planning, and preparing for so long that you never actually take the first step? You're experiencing what psychologists call the "Deep Dive Effect" – the tendency to seek excessive information before taking action, often resulting in decision paralysis or missed opportunities. Brian shares the eye-opening story of meeting a young man who had spent two years preparing to launch a podcast without recording a single episode, perfectly illustrating how knowledge without implementation becomes wasted potential.The most successful business leaders don't wait for perfect information. They adopt a "ready, shoot, aim" approach – launching initiatives quickly, learning from real feedback, and refining as they go. Meanwhile, their competition remains stuck in research mode, paralyzed by contradicting advice and information overload. This pattern proves especially challenging for professionals with analytical minds, like clinicians or engineers, whose training emphasizes precision over action.What truly sets top-performing businesses apart isn't superior knowledge but superior implementation. While the masses flock to marketing seminars, the elite few obsess over creating remarkable customer experiences that turn clients into advocates. They build systems that differentiate their business at every touchpoint, recognizing that external competition isn't their real challenge – their ability to implement knowledge effectively is.Remember: your greatest competitor isn't the new business opening down the street. It's your willingness to act on what you know, even imperfectly. Start with small steps, learn through implementation, and understand that knowledge without action is just expensive education. Your success depends not on what you know, but on what you do with what you know.New Patient Group - The Employee & Patient Experience Co.A company designed to help orthodontists, dentists and other types of Doctors create a practice that dominates the new economy.
