In episode 183 of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany dive into a powerful and eye-opening conversation about the unconscious beliefs that hold people back from living their most authentic, empowered lives. Drawing from Patrick's recent presentation with Alfonso Cuadra at a real estate and personal development event, they explore “The 11 Hidden Beliefs That Keep You Stuck.” These deep-seated narratives often operate silently in the background of our minds, shaping our behaviours, decisions, and self-worth without us even realizing it. Patrick begins by unpacking the first few limiting beliefs—“I'm not enough,” “I'm not worthy,” and “I'm not loved”—explaining how these subconscious programs can silently govern our actions. These beliefs often stem from seemingly innocent childhood experiences, parental comments, or emotional wounds, and evolve into inner constraints that manifest as overachievement, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or playing small. The episode also addresses beliefs such as “I don't matter,” “I'm not safe,” “I'm powerless,” and “There's something wrong with me,” demonstrating how each one erodes confidence and self-expression. Patrick and Steffany highlight how these inner scripts impact not just goal achievement, but emotional freedom, joy, and meaningful connection. A key takeaway? Awareness is the first step to transformation. Once these hidden beliefs are identified, they can be challenged, reprogrammed, and dissolved. Patrick encourages listeners to upgrade their “mental software” by paying attention to their emotional triggers, self-talk, and recurring patterns. The conversation is candid, relatable, and packed with real-life stories, humour, and deep insight. It's an invitation to uncover what's really been holding you back—and to finally feel free enough to move forward.

In this reflective and energizing episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany share insights from a transformative retreat in Sedona, Arizona, where they hit pause on the noise of life to reconnect, recharge, and reset. Immersed in nature and guided coaching, their time away became a powerful reminder of the importance of creating sacred space—for clarity, creativity, and connection. The episode explores how stepping outside our day-to-day grind allows us to re-evaluate where we're operating on autopilot. The couple discusses the deep work they did as individuals and as partners, highlighting how we all benefit from moments of grounding, intentional presence, and time to “replug.” From journaling and meditation to desert hikes and labyrinth walks, their experience reaffirmed a powerful truth: we must lead ourselves before we can lead others. One of the standout takeaways is Patrick's concept of Mind Shui—a term he coined to describe the intentional reorganization of mental space, much like Feng Shui aligns physical space. Mind Shui is about removing internal clutter—old beliefs, emotional baggage, unprocessed thoughts—so that energy can flow clearly across all seven areas of life. The clearer the mind, the faster the momentum. They also touch on economic uncertainties, generational divides, and the importance of keeping perspective during turbulent times. At the core of it all is this message: when the world feels chaotic, come back to what you can control—your mindset, your energy, your environment.

In this thought-provoking episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany Francey dive deep into the metaphor of “the banana” — the limiting beliefs, old identities, emotional baggage, and outdated stories we cling to that keep us stuck and prevent growth. Using the story of how hunters trap monkeys with bananas, Patrick explores how our grip on the past, much like the monkey's grip on the fruit, often becomes our own trap. Whether it's a past trauma, a title or role we once held, or a belief that we're not enough, these “bananas” shape our decisions and hold us back from living authentically and powerfully. Steffany shares powerful insights about identity, forgiveness, and the hidden resistance to moving forward. Her recent personal experience—winning a prestigious, unexpected award—illustrates how even recognition can bring up questions of worth and identity. Together, they explore how people often stay stuck in comfort or familiarity rather than face the discomfort of the unknown, and how clinging to the past can prevent us from fully stepping into our potential. This episode is rich with real-life examples, humor, and heartfelt dialogue as Patrick and Steffany challenge listeners to reflect on what they might be holding onto—and encourage them to let go with compassion and awareness. With key themes of personal growth, resilience, self-awareness, and emotional freedom, this episode inspires you to identify your own “banana,” loosen your grip, and create space for new possibilities.

Join Patrick and Steffany in this thought provoking throwback episode of the “Everyday Millionaire Mindset Matters”. This week (previously recorded in October of 2023), they explore a topic that touches the core of our humanity: Intimacy. This fundamental human need knows no gender boundaries; it's the glue that binds us together, creating deep connections and emotional closeness in our relationships. As they delve into the nuances of intimacy, Patrick and Steffany do their best to shed some light on how societal norms, social influences, and personal experiences shape our understanding and expression of this complex concept. Join them as they lift the hood to unveil the often misunderstood and intriguing world of human intimacy, revealing insights that just might transform your relationships and enrich your life.

Meet Steffany Velasquez, the powerhouse behind Preferred Claim Solutions! In this episode of Beyond The Claim, we dive deep into her incredible journey from making cold calls as a teenager to running a successful public adjusting firm.

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the Mindset Matters podcast, hosts Patrick and Steffany Francey dive into a universal and often unconscious belief that holds so many people back: “I'm not enough.” Whether it's not smart enough, not successful enough, not attractive enough, or just not worthy, this pervasive inner dialogue can quietly sabotage your confidence, relationships, and personal growth. Patrick and Steffany explore where this damaging mindset originates—often rooted in childhood experiences, comparisons, and societal pressures—and how it continues to shape our choices and identities. Through authentic conversation, they reveal how high achievers, athletes, and professionals frequently operate from a place of not-enoughness, overcompensating through performance or perfectionism, only to still feel unfulfilled. This episode features compelling insights, powerful coaching perspectives, and two emotional parables—the story of the cracked pot and the eagle raised as a chicken—that illustrate how our environments, inner narratives, and self-talk influence whether we soar or stay stuck. Steffany shares reflections from the world of elite figure skating, where even the most talented athletes can falter under the weight of proving their worth. Patrick adds stories from his own experiences and clients, reinforcing the truth that real transformation begins with awareness and the courage to challenge limiting beliefs. If you've ever questioned your value or found yourself striving for external validation, this episode is a must-listen. It's a wake-up call and a reminder: You are enough—right now, just as you are.

In this powerful episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany Francey dive deep into the deceptive allure of the comfort zone and explore how it might be quietly crushing your dreams. Together, they unpack the emotional and psychological patterns that keep us stuck in safe, familiar spaces—at the cost of real growth and personal fulfillment. Using the vivid parable of the lobster—who must shed its shell to grow—Patrick draws a compelling parallel: just like the lobster, we only truly grow when we embrace discomfort. That discomfort might look like starting a business, having a tough conversation, facing rejection, or simply pushing beyond what's familiar. Steffany shares real-life coaching insights from high-performance athletes preparing for world championships, emphasizing how discomfort isn't something to avoid—but rather a necessary state that sharpens focus, fuels creativity, and unlocks peak performance. Together, they reflect on personal stories of navigating change, shedding old identities, and the emotional cost of clinging to comfort when it no longer serves us. This episode challenges listeners to examine where in their life they've settled—relationships, health, business, or personal development—and offers inspiring reminders that discomfort is not only natural but essential for growth. Whether you're an entrepreneur, athlete, leader, or someone craving change, this episode will resonate deeply. Packed with raw reflections, laughter, and honest moments, Patrick and Steffany invite you to ask the hard question: Are you fighting to stay comfortable… or fighting to grow? Tune in and discover why getting uncomfortable might be the most important decision you make this year.

In this thought-provoking episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany take a deep dive into the concept of ego—its role in our lives, relationships, and personal growth. Inspired by Ryan Holiday's Ego is the Enemy, they challenge the notion that ego is something to be eliminated, instead framing it as both a protector and a potential roadblock. Through engaging metaphors and real-life experiences, Patrick and Steffany compare ego to a suit of armor—offering protection when needed but also risking isolation if never removed. They discuss how ego influences our self-identity, drives ambition, and at times, holds us back through fear, comparison, and the need for validation. Key insights from this episode include: ✅ How ego can fuel resilience and confidence—but also limit personal growth. ✅ The difference between healthy self-esteem (which seeks truth) and ego (which seeks validation). ✅ Why the most effective leaders have a flexible ego—assertive yet open to feedback. ✅ The impact of ego in business, sports, and personal relationships. ✅ How to recognize when your ego is serving you—or keeping you small. Patrick shares his personal experience of stepping into new leadership roles, confronting discomfort, and overcoming ego-driven doubts. Steffany explores the challenge of detaching from relationships that no longer align, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness in navigating growth and change. This episode will leave you reflecting on the question: Is your ego working for you, or against you? Tune in for actionable strategies to harness your ego's power and transform it into a tool for success.

In this thought-provoking episode of Mindset Matters, hosts Patrick and Steffany Hanlen Francey take a deep dive into the meaning of integrity—one of the most frequently cited core values, yet often misunderstood. They challenge listeners to redefine integrity, moving beyond societal judgments and external expectations to a deeply personal standard: Are you living in alignment with your own values? The discussion opens with a powerful observation: integrity often appears on people's top values list, yet many operate outside of it—consciously or unconsciously. Patrick and Steffany break down the idea that integrity isn't about how others perceive you but rather how truthful you are with yourself. They explore real-life examples of how misalignment with one's values can manifest in stress, anxiety, and dissatisfaction, whether in personal relationships, career choices, or even everyday habits. Using the concept of structural integrity, they draw a parallel between maintaining a solid foundation in architecture and staying true to one's internal framework. Just as a bridge collapses when its integrity is compromised, so too does personal well-being when one's actions contradict their core beliefs. The hosts also examine the role of societal and professional pressures that push individuals to make choices misaligned with their values—such as career decisions made out of financial necessity rather than passion and authenticity. This episode also delves into the nuanced challenges of integrity in modern workplaces, particularly within the realm of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Patrick and Steffany offer insights into the emotional and ethical dilemmas that arise when individuals feel forced to compromise their values to fit external frameworks. Through engaging storytelling and real-life scenarios—including the inspiring story of a golfer who upheld integrity at great financial cost—this episode encourages listeners to take a personal integrity check. Patrick and Steffany emphasize that while making integrity-driven choices can be difficult and even lonely at times, the long-term benefits far outweigh the short-term discomfort. Tune in to Mindset Matters for an eye-opening conversation that challenges you to reflect on your own values, question societal definitions of integrity, and take ownership of living in alignment with who you truly are.

In this enlightening episode of the Mindset Matters podcast, hosts Patrick and Steffany dive deep into the transformative power of frustration. They reveal that frustration isn't merely a negative emotion—it's a powerful feedback mechanism signaling unmet expectations and misaligned values. According to the conversation, frustration often arises when our internal expectations, whether about ourselves or others, go unfulfilled. This physiological response, they explain, is a crucial cue that something needs attention and adjustment. Patrick and Steffany explore how both personal and interpersonal frustrations are rooted in our assumptions and unspoken expectations. They highlight that when we become frustrated—whether it's due to a partner's differing values, a slow learning curve, or even larger societal issues like political decisions—it is often a call to examine what we truly need. Instead of letting frustration evolve into anger, the hosts suggest taking a moment to pause and ask, “What do I need that I'm not getting?” This introspection helps shift the focus from blaming external factors to owning our emotional responses. With a blend of humor and real-life anecdotes, the conversation touches on topics ranging from relationship dynamics to the challenges of personal growth. They discuss how our frustration in everyday interactions—like those fueled by small talk or miscommunication—can serve as a stepping stone toward better communication and self-improvement. The episode also delves into the idea that, in a world full of unmet expectations, embracing and processing frustration is essential for building resilience and fostering a growth mindset. Ultimately, Patrick and Steffany empower listeners to reframe frustration as a constructive force. By acknowledging and addressing the unmet needs behind their frustration, individuals can pave the way for enhanced self-awareness, improved relationships, and lasting personal growth. Tune in to discover practical coaching tips and insights that will help you transform frustration into an opportunity for change.

In this episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany dive deep into the psychology of meaning and how our present influences both our past and future. Drawing on insights from renowned psychologists Dr. Roy Baumeister and Dr. Kathleen Vohs, they explore the idea that present events derive meaning from their connection to future outcomes. The conversation touches on the growing disconnection in society and how an uncertain future impacts our sense of purpose. With rising rates of depression, suicide, and social isolation, many people are struggling to find meaning in a world that feels increasingly divided. Patrick and Steffany examine the shift from community-based happiness to individual pleasure-seeking and its effect on overall well-being. They also discuss the impact of global and personal tragedies, including the recent loss in the figure skating community, and how grief is deeply tied to meaning. Steffany shares her perspective on grief as "stuck love" and emphasizes the importance of processing emotions, reconnecting with purpose, and moving forward with intention. In a time of rapid change, the couple highlights the necessity of cultivating hope, building community, and embracing conversations that inspire growth. Patrick also shares his excitement about his new role with McKay CEO Forums, a platform dedicated to fostering meaningful connections among business leaders. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to navigate uncertainty, reclaim their sense of purpose, and build a meaningful future despite life's challenges.

In this episode, Patrick and Steffany explore a thought-provoking question: Are we truly happy, or are we just chasing pleasure? While many people confuse the two, they explain how happiness is an internal, long-term state, while pleasure is a short-lived external high that can leave us feeling empty once it fades. Patrick and Steffany discuss how modern society—especially social media—has amplified the addiction to pleasure through instant gratification. Platforms like Instagram and TikTok provide constant dopamine hits, often tricking us into believing we're happy when, in reality, we're just on an emotional rollercoaster. They highlight the science behind it: pleasure is fueled by dopamine, while true happiness comes from serotonin. Ironically, excessive dopamine suppresses serotonin, making lasting happiness harder to attain. Through personal reflections and real-world examples, they unpack how many of us unconsciously seek pleasure in shopping, binge-watching, or even the pursuit of external validation. They also touch on how industries—like social media, gambling, and even retail—are designed to keep us hooked on pleasure. Steffany shares insights from working with athletes, noting how social media "fasts" help competitors stay present and avoid the distractions of external validation. The episode also explores the importance of purpose, relationships, and self-awareness in cultivating happiness. The key takeaway? Pleasure is easy, but happiness is earned. By prioritizing deep connections, personal growth, and meaningful contributions, we can shift from seeking fleeting pleasure to cultivating lasting happiness. Tune in for a powerful conversation that challenges us to reflect on what truly makes us happy.

In this episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany dive into the loaded concept of fairness. They unpack how “fair” is often used in political, business, and personal conversations, yet its meaning is highly subjective. Patrick kicks off the discussion with a provocative example: a financial agreement where one party lends money at an agreed interest rate, only to later feel shortchanged when the borrower makes a significant profit. The scenario highlights how fairness can shift depending on perspective, emotions, and unforeseen outcomes. The hosts explore the distinction between fairness, evenness, and merit. Steffany points out how fairness is often misinterpreted, such as in sports when coaches say they will distribute ice time fairly—but not necessarily equally. Similarly, in society, politicians use the word to push an agenda, but are they really advocating fairness or simply playing with language to appeal to emotions? They also touch on how fairness—or the lack of it—creates victim mentalities. If fairness is a core value, then feeling deprived or overlooked can be a frequent and frustrating experience. Instead, Steffany suggests shifting the focus from fairness to possibility, embracing personal responsibility rather than waiting for an even playing field. The episode ties fairness back to relationships, work, and personal growth, urging listeners to examine where they feel things are “unfair” and whether assumptions, miscommunications, or unspoken expectations are at play. Ultimately, Patrick and Steffany challenge listeners to redefine fairness for themselves and recognize how it shapes their mindset, decisions, and sense of fulfillment. Is life truly fair? Or is it about agreements, perception, and perspective? Tune in and decide for yourself.

In this heartfelt episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany Francey dive deep into the themes of trust, forgiveness, and self-responsibility. Opening with the timeless quote, “To err is human, to forgive divine,” they explore what it means to forgive when trust has been broken and how to rebuild relationships through the art of healing. Patrick shares a powerful parable of a master who mends a broken clay pot with golden resin, symbolizing how forgiveness is the glue that binds us together when trust shatters. This concept aligns with the Japanese art of Kintsugi, where cracks in pottery are repaired with gold, creating something more beautiful and meaningful than before. Through this lens, Patrick and Steffany discuss how the scars of broken trust can carry valuable lessons while still leaving their mark. The conversation touches on the nuances of trust—whether broken intentionally, unintentionally, or due to misunderstandings. Steffany introduces the "Assumption of Trust," an exercise that challenges listeners to examine their own trustworthiness and values. They reflect on real-life scenarios, from personal relationships to business dynamics, emphasizing the need for clear communication and self-awareness to prevent misunderstandings and unmet expectations. Forgiveness, they argue, is not about forgetting or excusing harm but about releasing the emotional weight we carry. Through poignant anecdotes, including stories of parents forgiving unimaginable losses, they underscore the importance of forgiveness as a gift we give ourselves to reclaim peace and healing. The episode closes with a reminder: forgiveness begins within. Whether seeking it for others or granting it to ourselves, letting go of resentment is essential for emotional freedom and well-being. Trust and forgiveness are not just actions—they are ongoing practices rooted in our values and choices.

In this engaging episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany explore the profound connection between language, resilience, and personal growth. The conversation begins with the intriguing word "abracadabra," which they reveal is derived from Hebrew, meaning "as I speak, so I create." This sparks a thoughtful dialogue on how words shape our reality, serve as our "wardrobe" to the world, and influence the outcomes we manifest. The hosts shift focus to the theme of resilience—a critical quality for thriving amidst life's challenges. Steffany shares her expertise in emotional resilience, distinguishing it from mental toughness, and emphasizes its application across various areas of life, including physical, relational, financial, and spiritual domains. Patrick highlights the importance of adaptability, self-awareness, purpose, and a strong support system as foundational elements of resilience. The duo dives deeper into how adversity plays a vital role in building empathy and compassion. They discuss how a lack of early challenges can hinder emotional growth and contrast it with the profound lessons learned through overcoming hardships. Steffany shares insights from her coaching experience, including her method of "manufacturing adversity" to prepare athletes for real-world challenges. The episode also touches on resilience in community settings, referencing recent wildfires in California. The discussion underscores the importance of leaning on support systems and the courage it takes to ask for help during trying times. The hosts advocate for embracing adversity as a muscle that needs training, much like physical fitness, to foster emotional strength and self-reliance. Ending on a positive note, Steffany reminds listeners to prepare for the worst, expect the best, and always leave room for magic. This episode is a powerful reminder that resilience, like the magic of words, can transform lives when nurtured with intention and purpose.

In this engaging episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany dive deep into the essence of progress and its connection to happiness, fulfillment, and purpose. They kick things off with a candid moment, reflecting on how even small conflicts can lead to growth when addressed constructively. Their conversation highlights that happiness isn't a destination but a byproduct of moving forward and aligning with your values. Central to their discussion is the idea that progress fuels our sense of satisfaction and purpose. Drawing on stories like Alexander the Great's Gordian knot and insights from personal and professional experiences, they emphasize that progress often requires creative thinking, bold action, and the courage to challenge norms. For Patrick, progress is more than hitting financial targets—it's about measuring growth across the seven areas of life: vocation, physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, and beyond. Steffany adds a nuanced perspective by linking progress to measurable milestones, whether in personal goals or professional endeavors. From athletic training to building businesses, she underscores the importance of setting benchmarks to track growth. Progress, she notes, isn't about grand leaps; even small, consistent steps can lead to profound fulfillment. The pair also explore how stagnation breeds dissatisfaction and frustration, a sentiment many felt during recent years of societal and personal upheaval. They encourage listeners to examine where they feel stuck and identify actionable steps to regain momentum. Their advice: embrace challenges as opportunities to innovate, surround yourself with the right support, and maintain clarity on your core values. As the episode wraps up, Patrick and Steffany introduce concepts from their upcoming free master classes, such as the Circle of Support and the Values Matrix. They leave listeners with a powerful takeaway: progress isn't just a value—it's a mindset that drives happiness, purpose, and success.

In this episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany explore the theme “Come Alive in 2025,” reflecting on the importance of living with intention and aligning with one's core values as the new year begins. They revisit the transformative concept “clarity equals velocity” from 2024, emphasizing how clarity can propel growth in personal and professional relationships. The episode delves into the role of values in decision-making, highlighting how compromising one's core values often leads to dissatisfaction and misalignment. Patrick and Steffany discuss the dangers of living according to “shoulds” or societal expectations, which can erode authenticity and strain relationships. They urge listeners to identify their own values and live in integrity, noting that resilience and fulfillment stem from honoring what truly matters to you. A significant part of the conversation focuses on the seven pillars of life: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, financial, vocational, and relational fitness. The duo distinguishes between fitness—the active pursuit of growth—and wellness—a balanced, sustainable state. They share examples, such as financial fitness versus financial wellness, to illustrate how intentional focus can prepare individuals to navigate challenges while fostering resilience. Patrick and Steffany also reflect on how past adversity, such as the pandemic, has underscored the importance of preparation and adaptability. Whether it's mental resilience, financial stability, or spiritual grounding, they stress the need for self-awareness and readiness in a rapidly changing world. Practical advice, like maintaining emotional balance and preparing for uncertainties, ties the discussion to actionable steps. The episode concludes with a call to “come alive” by embracing one's values, facing adversity with courage, and striving for holistic fitness across life's domains. As Steffany notes, it's about standing firm in your truth amidst the chaos—a foundational step toward thriving in the year ahead.

Patrick and Steffany kick off 2025 with a reflective and forward-thinking conversation in episode 166 of Mindset Matters. With over three years and 166 episodes under their belts, they take time to consider the past year's challenges, successes, and lessons while laying the groundwork for an intentional and purpose-driven year ahead. Patrick and Steffany emphasize the unprecedented global environment entering 2025, from economic uncertainty to geopolitical tensions, and the importance of aligning values and fostering resilience. They announce three upcoming virtual masterclasses designed to equip listeners with tools and strategies to set the tone for a thriving year. These free 90-minute sessions will explore concepts like the values matrix, the seven areas of life, and the circle of support. The discussion delves into gratitude, with Patrick and Steffany reflecting on personal growth, self-care, and the invaluable support of their team and community. They touch on the lessons learned from embracing challenges, the power of clarity in decision-making, and the humility gained through setbacks. Steffany highlights the significance of accountability—not just as a duty but as a relational gift that fosters growth and deeper connections. Looking ahead, collaboration emerges as a key theme for 2025. The duo shares their insights on the necessity of aligning with like-minded individuals, building partnerships, and having courageous conversations to let go of relationships that no longer serve personal or professional growth. They stress the importance of focus management over busywork, encouraging listeners to prioritize incremental steps toward meaningful goals rather than becoming overwhelmed by the bigger picture. Ending on a powerful note, Patrick and Steffany urge listeners to design their lives around how they want to feel in seven key areas. Their message is clear: 2025 offers an opportunity to lean into change, embrace challenges, and thrive. Stay tuned for upcoming events and insights to guide you on your journey. Happy New Year!

In this episode of Mindset Matters, hosts Patrick and Steffany explore the theme "Thrive in 2025," reflecting on the importance of clarity, completion, and intentional action as the foundation for personal and professional growth. Steffany shares insights from her recent achievements at the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating in France, where her teams earned gold and bronze medals, illustrating how focused preparation and letting go of past expectations can lead to success. The couple discusses their annual practice of "completion exercises," a process of identifying and addressing unresolved aspects of life—whether in relationships, business, or personal goals. They emphasize the importance of letting go of energy-draining “incompletions” to create space for clarity and forward momentum. Procrastination, they note, often stems from avoiding these incompletions, which can become a barrier to fulfillment and even lead to feelings of overwhelm or stagnation. The episode revisits the mantra "Clarity Equals Velocity," highlighting how gaining clarity not only accelerates progress but can also create temporary chaos as we adjust to newfound focus. Patrick and Steffany explore how this principle applies across the "seven areas of life"—financial, vocational, familial, social, physical, mental, and spiritual—and share strategies for navigating challenges with intentionality and grace. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their accomplishments from 2024, identify lessons learned, and set clear intentions for the new year. The hosts offer a series of reflective questions and downloadable resources to guide this process. From letting go of burdensome relationships to celebrating progress and focusing on meaningful growth, Patrick and Steffany inspire their audience to step into 2025 with optimism, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose. As they close the episode, the hosts share their excitement for the opportunities ahead and remind listeners that thriving is less about striving and more about creating grounded, intentional progress.

Mindset Matters Podcast Summary In this engaging episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany Francey delve into the dynamics of collaboration, competition, and communication, using inspiration from Adam Kahane's book Collaborating with the Enemy. The conversation kicks off with Steffany sharing her exciting trip to the Grand Prix Final in France, where she supports world-class ice dance teams from the Ice Academy of Montreal. Patrick seamlessly transitions this into a broader discussion on the paradox of competition and collaboration. The hosts reflect on the challenges of working in high-stakes environments where competitors train together, emphasizing the importance of creating a culture that elevates everyone's performance. Patrick introduces the "champion's paradox"—the idea that while winning often means surpassing others, focusing solely on "beating" opponents lowers one's energy and potential. Instead, staying committed to one's own preparation, values, and vision leads to authentic success. Steffany and Patrick explore critical aspects of collaboration, such as the necessity of dialog and trust. They stress the value of creating a safe environment for honest communication, setting "rules of engagement," and embracing active listening. The hosts also highlight the importance of context in difficult conversations, providing practical tools for framing discussions in ways that foster understanding and respect. The episode unpacks topics like trust, perseverance, and diversity of thought while critiquing how modern narratives around inclusivity can dilute the true value of diverse perspectives. Steffany shares examples of helping clients navigate conflicts in environments that clash with their values, illustrating how alignment can be achieved even amidst disagreement. The conversation concludes with reflections on leadership, the role of facilitation, and the power of staying aligned with shared goals. Packed with actionable insights, this episode offers listeners a roadmap to navigate complex relationships and foster growth through collaboration.

Podcast Summary: A Week of Reflection, Growth, and Inspiration In this episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany Francey reflect on an eventful week filled with milestones, meaningful connections, and valuable insights. From attending high-profile events to engaging with the next generation of leaders, they explore the lessons learned and how they continue to apply their philosophy of mindset, growth, and resilience. The week started with Patrick speaking at the Institute of Futurization, addressing a sophisticated audience of investors and business leaders. He shared insights into the economy, real estate trends, and the importance of adapting to uncertain times. Steffany highlighted the joy of reconnecting with old friends and the inspiration drawn from the other speakers, including discussions on the future of banking and Central Bank Digital Currencies. A standout experience was their participation in the TEDx Youth event at the University of Waterloo. Organized by an 18-year-old visionary, the event showcased the potential of young leaders under pressure. Both Patrick and Steffany were deeply moved by the dedication, teamwork, and wisdom of the youth, offering hope for the future. They emphasized the importance of supporting and inspiring the next generation, urging listeners to reflect on their roles in empowering young people. The couple also recapped their encounter with a classic “Karen” personality, tying it into a broader discussion on authenticity and how stress reveals true character. Additionally, they shared insights from a talk by Ryan Holiday on Stoicism, underscoring the importance of staying grounded in the present and embracing the unpredictability of life. Finally, Patrick had a revelation about worry and anxiety, inspired by Dr. Joe Dispenza: anxiety about future events makes us victims of circumstances that haven't yet occurred. This insight reinforces the power of mindset and the need to focus on what we can control today. Tune in to this episode for reflections, humor, and a wealth of inspiration to help you navigate life with intention and resilience.

In this episode of the Mindset Matters podcast, hosts Patrick and Steffany dive into a candid and thought-provoking discussion about equality, gender dynamics, and navigating societal divides. They begin with a quick acknowledgment of ad interruptions, emphasizing their commitment to improving the listener experience. The core of the conversation explores the nuanced topic of equality, sparked by a rant Patrick encountered questioning traditional notions of "real men" and the demand for equality. The duo examines how differences in gender roles—whether physical, intellectual, or emotional—should be embraced rather than forced into a one-size-fits-all framework. Steffany shares her personal perspective as a woman thriving in male-dominated spaces, such as professional sports and real estate, without feeling the need to "be equal" but instead striving to be her best self. The discussion evolves into the broader societal challenges of equality versus equity, particularly in the context of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). They question whether meritocracy has been overshadowed by box-checking and whether society is losing sight of the value of individuality and shared humanity. Through their unique perspectives, they highlight the importance of honoring differences and fostering genuine connection, rather than focusing on labels or divisive ideologies. The conversation also touches on the principles of stoicism, with insights on managing emotions, focusing on what can be controlled, and seeking understanding rather than escalating conflicts. Both Patrick and Steffany emphasize the importance of aligning with personal values, surrounding oneself with supportive communities, and staying curious about differing viewpoints. Closing with humor and heartfelt reflections, the hosts remind listeners to step back, embrace common sense, and approach life with kindness, openness, and resilience. Feedback and continued dialogue are welcomed as they navigate these challenging but essential topics together.

Are there lessons we can take from other professions?What is the IAYT doing well? What can they improve upon?When will I get a vacation?These are all questions we cover in our chat with Dr. Steffany Moonaz.KEY TAKEAWAYS*This point cannot be stressed enough when talking about license within the yoga therapy space. Just because you have a license **Does not** mean you can necessarily bill insurance. Let's uncouple those thoughts, please. Thanks.*We can learn a lot from the journey of other professions. We deep dove into acupuncture with Dr. Moonaz and it is fascinating to hear the stories of professions where there are restrictions about who they can treat, how they can treat, and who supervises the practitioners. What are your thoughts here?*Where the IAYT seems to missed the mark is in understanding how people in yoga therapy find their clients through the referral process. I have said this before, but the amount of LHCPs (licensed health care providers) who have said “I will just get a 200 hour teacher training cert and do what you do, is staggering. Now I still get referrals from those folks because eventually they realize that isn't the case–but the fact that I have to explain this to an organization in our industry is wild to me. That just isn't how it works for any of us on the ground, taking clients as yoga therapists. *Gravitas and money. Those are the things we want. *Steffany said something I really want to emphasize. We can, as a profession, take the steps needed to become a licensed profession–and then decide not to do it. But in my opinion, it is WELL WORTH taking the steps to professionalize as a whole. It benefits us as an industry in the long run.*We need to give the IAYT credit where credit is due. The steps taken thus far in the area of self-regulation are significant. The accreditation process, the credentialing process, continuing education requirements, core competencies, these are all important in the development of yoga therapy as a profession. No doubt about it.*How do we distinguish the difference in all of the different services in the yoga marketplace? This is a huge question, especially in the context of yoga therapy. What ideas do YOU have? Email me, rebecca@workinginyoga.com and let me know.*This is the time where I remind you that the International Association of Yoga Therapists has no legal requirement to advocate for us as professionals. Their designation is a 501c3, which is a public serving organization. Just as a note.*Just to update you, We still have no official stance from the IAYT as to weather or not the Q designation is stopped completely, now a month later after we recorded.

In this week's episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany explore the dynamics of conflict in relationships, asking the pivotal question: What are we fighting for? Instead of focusing on surface-level disagreements, they dive into the underlying needs, emotions, and assumptions that often drive conflicts. Whether it's about missed calls, unacknowledged efforts, or unmet expectations, they reflect on how these issues are rarely about the specifics and more about the emotional undercurrents. The hosts highlight three common reasons for conflict: the need for care and closeness, respect and recognition, and power and control. They candidly share examples from their own relationship, from text messages sparking misunderstandings to humorous anecdotes about dog poop duty and misplaced laundry baskets. These stories illustrate how seemingly trivial issues can represent deeper emotional needs, like trust, autonomy, and validation. Patrick and Steffany also discuss how unspoken assumptions and unmet expectations can escalate conflicts. They emphasize the importance of self-awareness, emotional regulation, and honest communication in navigating disagreements. For instance, a partner may feel frustrated over an unanswered text, but the real issue might be a desire for reassurance or connection. By shifting the focus from “What are we fighting about?” to “What are we fighting for?” couples can move beyond reactive arguments to meaningful conversations. The episode underscores that conflict, when approached with curiosity and humility, can become an opportunity for growth. Patrick and Steffany encourage listeners to examine their own patterns, articulate their needs, and recognize the efforts of their partners. With humor and wisdom, they remind us that fighting for understanding and intimacy is far more rewarding than getting stuck in the details of what sparked the fight.

The Creepy Forest by Steffany by 826 Valencia

In this episode of "Mindset Matters," Patrick and Steffany discuss the election of Donald Trump as U.S. President and its potential impact on Canadians. While Trump doesn't directly govern Canada, his policies may have significant effects on Canada's economy and its relations with the U.S. Patrick voices his concern over the strong emotional responses he's observed, urging listeners not to be overly swayed by mainstream media narratives. Instead, he suggests adopting a critical mindset and looking at various sources for a well-rounded perspective. He highlights the Stoic approach, which encourages focusing on what one can control rather than dwelling on the uncontrollable aspects of global politics. They transition into a broader discussion on personal growth, introducing curiosity as a foundational tool in overcoming life's challenges. Curiosity, they argue, promotes exploration and an open-minded attitude, helping individuals stay adaptable in the face of change. Steffany draws from her experience in high-performance sports, emphasizing that curiosity fosters learning and innovation. The hosts then touch on the importance of passion, noting that while it can fuel motivation, passion alone may not be sustainable over the long term. They stress the importance of purpose as a guiding force, as purpose can turn passion into a lasting commitment and provide direction through difficult times. Aligning one's life with a clear purpose, they believe, fosters resilience and helps individuals make a positive impact on others. In closing, Patrick and Steffany encourage listeners to focus on personal goals and values, rather than letting external events drain their energy. By embracing curiosity, passion, and purpose, listeners can navigate challenges with resilience and create a meaningful life that transcends the influence of political or media-driven stress.

In this episode of Mindset Matters, hosts Patrick and Steffany dive into some of the most frequently asked questions from their listeners, revealing how they handle challenges in both their personal and professional lives. One popular question centers around conflict: “What do you do when you disagree or feel triggered by each other?” Patrick and Steffany share that while they naturally have disagreements, especially given their different approaches to preparation, they make a point to keep their discussions constructive. Patrick's detail-oriented style contrasts with Steffany's more spontaneous approach, leading to occasional friction. However, they've set boundaries to avoid hurtful or personal comments, focusing instead on the issue at hand and staying respectful. For them, this commitment keeps the relationship healthy and ensures disagreements don't turn into personal conflicts. Another common question is about handling setbacks. Patrick and Steffany openly share their approach: they don't dwell on blame, instead focusing on how they can take responsibility for their reactions. They see setbacks as learning opportunities and practice resilience by shifting their perspectives to see challenges as growth experiences. Listeners are also curious about jealousy, especially around Steffany's high-energy work and travels. Patrick admits he sometimes wishes he could join her, but he feels proud and supportive of her achievements. This mutual respect helps them balance individual ambitions with their partnership. Lastly, they address the challenge of differing beliefs within relationships, reflecting on how they navigated opposing views during the pandemic. They advise couples to communicate openly and seek alignment, even if that means involving a neutral third party to help guide the conversation. Through candid answers and self-reflection, Patrick and Steffany provide insights on creating a resilient, loving relationship that thrives despite challenges.

In this episode of Mindset Matters, hosts Patrick and Steffany delve into the compelling topic of identity beyond professional and personal roles. They explore the question, “Who am I if I'm not that?” and discuss how deeply people's identities are tied to what they do rather than who they truly are. Patrick and Steffany reflect on how common it is to introduce ourselves by our professions and roles, which creates a reliance on these roles for self-worth and value. This reliance, they explain, often leads to a crisis when those roles are no longer part of our lives, such as in career transitions, retirement, or the shift to becoming an empty nester. The conversation turns to how societal expectations shape our identities, often leaving people unprepared when major life changes remove the titles they've depended on. Citing statistics, Patrick and Steffany discuss how the lifespan post-retirement has drastically reduced in recent years. This trend indicates a profound need for purpose, especially for individuals accustomed to busy careers. Many retirees struggle to find meaning outside of work, even experiencing health issues due to this loss of purpose. Patrick notes the recurring trend of public figures like rock stars returning to the stage not just for financial reasons, but to fulfill an inner drive for purpose. They highlight the importance of people, purpose, and passion as fundamental elements that keep us engaged and inspired. Steffany emphasizes that without a meaningful contribution to make, individuals may experience melancholy or a sense of emptiness. She relates this to athletes she has worked with, particularly those transitioning out of professional sports, who often find it difficult to define their worth outside their athletic achievements. Steffany stresses that early conversations around these identity shifts can alleviate some of the struggles, allowing athletes, professionals, and anyone in a similar situation to embrace new chapters with confidence. The episode closes with the parable of the Golden Buddha, a clay statue hiding a core of solid gold. Over centuries, the gold was concealed, much like how people cover their true selves with layers of societal expectations and roles. Steffany and Patrick use this metaphor to remind listeners of the value within each person—value that can only be discovered by “chipping away” at the external identity markers. They urge listeners to ask themselves, “Who am I beneath all these roles?” and to consider how self-discovery and authenticity contribute to a meaningful, passion-driven life.

In this episode of *Mindset Matters*, hosts Patrick and Steffany dive into a rich conversation about mindset, self-talk, and the ways we navigate life's challenges. Steffany kicks things off by sharing her recent experience at Skate America 2024, where the Ice Academy of Montreal had a triumphant showing, sweeping the podium. This event, coupled with Patrick's reflections on Steffany's absence and a throwback episode, sets the tone for a discussion about growth, values, and living a life aligned with personal goals. A significant part of the episode focuses on self-talk, particularly the negative narratives we often carry about ourselves. Patrick shares a parable about a black dot on a white sheet of paper, a metaphor for how people tend to fixate on their flaws (the black dot) rather than the vast potential (the white space) in their lives. This leads into an exploration of how our inner dialogue can limit our growth and self-worth. Steffany, drawing from her expertise as a mindset coach, discusses the profound impact of negative self-talk on personal and professional development. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing and interrupting these negative patterns to open up space for possibilities. The couple also touches on the concept of the “gap and the gain,” a psychological framework that contrasts focusing on what's missing in life (the gap) with celebrating how far we've come (the gain). Steffany highlights the importance of shifting our mindset toward the gain, using the white space around the black dot as a metaphor for the vast potential and opportunity in life. They both reflect on the power of gratitude and how it plays a pivotal role in rewiring our thoughts toward the positive. Physical health and its connection to mental well-being are also discussed. Patrick shares his journey of recovering from a compressed disc injury, highlighting how his physical recovery influenced his mental state. For Patrick, physical activity is a crucial component of maintaining a positive mindset. He explains how setting up systems to make success easier, such as workout routines, is key to sustaining both physical and mental health. As the episode wraps up, Steffany and Patrick caution against the dangers of comparison, especially in the age of social media. Comparing ourselves to others often distorts our perception of success and happiness. Instead, they encourage listeners to focus on their unique paths, celebrating individual progress and growth.

In this Throwback Thursday episode of Mindset Matters hosted by Patrick Francey and Steffany-Hanlen Francey, the couple dives into the foundational principles of motivation, using what they call "The Five P's" framework. This episode centers on exploring what drives human performance and motivation. Patrick and Steffany begin by explaining how people are motivated in different ways, whether by impact, challenge, or purpose. Steffany reflects on her work with athletes at the Ice Academy in Montreal, where she participated in a workshop about motivation. They discuss how understanding what motivates an individual can help coaches unlock higher performance, and they highlight that everyone is driven by different factors. The core of the episode revolves around the "Five P's": People, Purpose, Pursuit, Pressure, and Profit. The couple discusses how some people are motivated by social interactions (People), others by a sense of higher calling (Purpose), some by competition and achievement (Pursuit), while others thrive under deadlines or high-stakes situations (Pressure). Finally, they emphasize that passion, or love for what one does, can tie all these motivational drivers together. Profit, while important, should not be the only driver, as fulfillment often comes from aligning passion with purpose. Throughout the conversation, Patrick and Steffany examine how they personally relate to these motivators, offering insights from both their own lives and the lives of the people they coach. They also touch on the importance of understanding one's motivations to create a fulfilling and successful life, whether in personal relationships, professional goals, or personal development. The episode encourages listeners to reflect on what drives them and offers practical tools for creating environments where they can thrive, no matter what their primary motivator might be.

In this episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany explore the powerful emotions of guilt, shame, and regret, using a metaphor of a caged bird to illustrate how these feelings can limit our potential. The story highlights a young bird, trapped not by physical constraints but by its own fear and self-imposed limitations, symbolizing how past mistakes and internalized shame can prevent us from spreading our wings and moving forward. Steffany discusses her experiences working with individuals who face self-imposed limits due to unresolved trauma and the stories they tell themselves. She emphasizes that while it's difficult to break free from these patterns, the process of self-reflection and healing is crucial for true growth. Patrick shares personal anecdotes, including his relationship with his father, to illustrate the pervasive impact of early conditioning and parental expectations. He discusses how unresolved emotional wounds can manifest in adulthood, affecting personal and professional growth. Together, they emphasize the importance of letting go of the past and breaking free from the invisible cages built around guilt and shame. They reflect on the challenges of shifting from survival mode to thriving and encourage listeners to create a safe space for self-awareness and transformation. The episode concludes with an inspiring call to examine the stories we tell ourselves and to step out of our self-imposed cages, embracing the freedom to live authentically and fully.

In this episode of Mindset Matters, hosts Patrick Francey and Steffany-Hanlen Francey delve into why mindset is more crucial now than ever. The episode opens with a powerful parable of the two wolves—one representing negative emotions like anger and envy, and the other symbolizing positivity like love and compassion. The message: "The wolf that wins is the one you feed." This story sets the stage for an in-depth discussion about the internal battles we face daily and the importance of choosing to feed the "good wolf" through intentional mindset practices. Patrick explains that although the term "mindset" is relatively new, the concept has been central to human development for thousands of years, dating back to ancient Stoic philosophy. He highlights how historical figures like Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus emphasized the power of self-reflection and controlling one's reactions, ideas that align with modern thought leaders like Tony Robbins and Jim Rohn. Steffany opens up about her recent emotional struggles, acknowledging that she was feeding the "dark wolf" but emphasizes the importance of being honest about negative feelings without letting them define you. She highlights the balance between acknowledging hardship and maintaining resilience, explaining that denying negative emotions isn't productive for personal growth. The conversation transitions into how individuals can maintain a healthy mindset amidst adversity by becoming the "observer" of their own experiences. Patrick and Steffany discuss how self-awareness, reflection, and resilience have been cornerstones of their personal and professional lives, helping them guide clients and themselves through challenging times. Ultimately, the episode underscores the importance of feeding the "good wolf" by practicing mindfulness, cultivating a strong support network, and embracing both the light and dark aspects of life as integral to personal growth.

In this thought-provoking episode of Mindset Matters, hosts Patrick and Steffany dive into the concept of paradoxes and how they shape our perception of life's challenges and opportunities. The episode begins with a well-known parable of an old man on the frontier, whose life experiences highlight the unpredictable nature of events that can seem like blessings or curses, depending on our perspective. Steffany and Patrick explore the "Champion's Paradox," which teaches us that success often requires embracing both highs and lows simultaneously. Whether in sports, business, or life, the ability to hold two opposing thoughts—like winning and losing, light and dark—can foster personal growth and resilience. They discuss how many people get stuck in absolutes, limiting their ability to see multiple sides of a situation, which, in turn, limits their potential. Throughout the conversation, the hosts reflect on the pursuit of happiness, trust, and control, all of which can be paradoxical in nature. They touch on real-life examples from Steffany's work with athletes, Patrick's experiences in real estate, and their personal life lessons. By understanding that life's circumstances often present both challenges and opportunities, they emphasize the importance of staying grounded in gratitude, self-awareness, and embracing the present moment. The episode wraps up with practical insights on how to navigate paradoxes in everyday life, urging listeners to let go of the need for certainty and control, and instead focus on what can be managed—our mindset and response to life's unpredictability. Tune in to this episode for a deep dive into the power of paradox and how mastering it can lead to a more balanced and empowered mindset.

In this episode of the Mindset Matters podcast, hosts Patrick and Steffany-Hanlen Francey reflect on the recent Real Estate Investor Conference (REIcon) held in Edmonton, hosted by Calvin Hexter and his team. The event was a powerful reminder of the significance of community, culture, and environment in personal and professional growth. Patrick and Steffanya emphasize the importance of surrounding oneself with like-minded individuals who inspire and support each other, especially in challenging economic times. Patrick highlights how the conference brought together both old and new members of the real estate investing community, creating a space for collaboration and shared learning. He appreciates the efforts of the organizers and acknowledges the presence of key figures like Michael Ponte, Wayne Hillier, Gabby, and Alfonso Quadra, who contributed to the event's success. Steffany shares her gratitude for reconnecting with long-time community members and seeing the collective resilience and commitment to growth despite current uncertainties. The discussion pivots to the concept of "borrowed confidence" and how being part of a supportive community can help individuals stay focused and motivated. Steffany draws parallels between the culture in real estate and her experience working with professional sports teams, emphasizing the role of community and environment in achieving success. The episode underscores the idea that real growth happens when individuals step out of their comfort zones and engage in real-life interactions. While virtual platforms offer convenience, Patrick and Steffany stress the irreplaceable value of face-to-face connections and the energy that comes from being physically present in a supportive environment. They encourage listeners to seek out communities that foster authentic connections and provide a safe space for growth, whether in real estate or any other field. The episode wraps up with an invitation to stay tuned for a live podcast recording and a reminder to keep pushing forward, one step at a time, in pursuit of their goals.
