Send us a textCareer Momentum and Getting "Unstuck" Starts With How You SHOW UPCareer momentum does not come from doing more. It comes from showing up with clarity, intention, and confidence, especially at mid-career. In this opening episode of the year, I share my personal journey from classroom teacher to leadership and career coach, and the moment when being fine was no longer enough.I walk you through the experiences that shaped how I think about careers today, from turning classic game shows into engaging math lessons to leading instructional coaches across 13 middle schools. Along the way, stalled interviews, internal politics, and budget delays forced me to rethink how career decisions are really made and how influence is built at mid-career.These lessons became the foundation of my work helping mid-career professionals who feel undervalued, underutilized, or stuck despite doing everything they were told would lead to advancement.Why Mid-Career Feels Harder Than It ShouldMid-career is not a plateau. It is a dynamic and decisive phase where visibility, influence, and clarity matter more than effort alone. I share how nonprofit reorganizations left me highly valued by some leaders and invisible to others and how those moments sharpened my understanding of what truly drives career momentum.In this episode, I introduce the six strategies for showing up with intention. These strategies focus on aligning your thoughts, emotions, and actions so you can protect your professional brand, have more meaningful conversations, and make smarter career decisions in a complex job market.What You Will Learn in This EpisodeIf you are a manager or senior director balancing career growth with family and caregiving responsibilities, this episode will help you cut through the noise and regain momentum.You will learn:Why mid-career is one of the most important and misunderstood stages of your careerThe turning point that shifted me from educator to leader and coachHow to read interview signals and ask for feedback that actually mattersHow to reframe career setbacks into growth opportunitiesThe six strategies for showing up with clarity and intentionCommon challengeSupport the showReady to give your career the jumpstart it needs to whatever is next?

Todays episode is a replay episode from May 2024Want To Quit Your Job In The Next 6-18 Months Through Buying Commercial Real Estate & Small Businesses?

In this episode of ‘The Art of Living Big,’ Betsy helps us focus on the present moments in our lives. She reminds us to emphasize the cozy, reflective moments amidst holiday preparations, to fully “wear our lives” by making conscious choices for ourselves. Betsy clues us into the powerful messages in our dreams; metaphors produced by our unconscious mind that we can learn from. She concludes with a message of hope for the new year and an invitation to embrace our true potential. Transcript:  Welcome to The Art of Living Big, where we explore how to live intentionally and with more joy. I’m Betsy Pake, your host, master, coach, and creator of the Navigate Method. Here to help you listen in to your true desires, elevate your standards, and live life to the fullest. Now, let’s go live big. Hi, everybody. Welcome. Welcome to the show today. It’s our last show before the holiday, so I hope everybody’s ready. I hope you’re getting some time to decompress. I know the last couple weeks it’s been cold here in Atlanta, like super cold, and I have had. Twinkly lights. I feel like I’ve got my decorations just right. , I haven’t turned on an overhead light in weeks. It feels so nice and cozy. I actually have really been enjoying it, being really chilly out. I don’t know, just I’m in the top floor of my apartment, which I like to call the penthouse and. I can really hear the wind because I’m right , on the corner, but I really love it. The other day , it was like a, it was Saturday, I think. Saturday or Sunday. It was so windy here, so, so, so windy. You could just hear the wind whipping outside. And I was like, this is a perfect conditions for a nap. And yeah, so I just took a nap and I could hear the wind and it was just kind of magical. I grew up in Vermont, you know, I live in Atlanta, but I grew up in Vermont. So anyway, I attribute my love of the cozy to that experience, I guess. . So I’m excited to be here with you today. , Just a reminder, next month we have a fireside chat. It’s January 11th. I’m really gonna try and do these every month, and it’s just a free time for everybody to come together on Zoom, you can sign up by going to my Instagram. The link is gonna be in my bio, but you can also just message me, fire and it will automatically send you the link to get signed up. , We did this in November and it was really so nice to have everybody come together and it was nice to see some of my old clients and favorite people. And we just talked about midlife and some of the challenges. I’ve got some thoughts for this time. Last time was very unscripted, which this time will be two. I mean, I wanna just go with the flow of what everybody needs, but. Wanted to invite you to join us. I know last week, I don’t know, every week probably, I’m talking about that quilted house coat from Cozy Earth and Cozy Earth’s one of our sponsors here on the podcast, but I’m obsessed with my quilted house coat and they’ve sold out. , I’m so sorry if anybody didn’t get theirs, still get it in January. The code live big Betsy. That’ll still get you 20% off like any time of the year. But those are just so great. I’m not surprised it sold out. One of my very best friends was waiting to get one and she was gonna have that be her Christmas gift. And when she went to go buy it, they were completely sold out. I actually looked last night, the night before and they just had extra, extra large. , And if you look at the size and guide, I think they’re pretty. Pretty true to size. So , I was like, get the extra, extra large and then just return it so you get the super discount. But it’s, so good. But I wanna remind you also that they have those cozy lounge socks. Those are great stocking stuffers, so don’t sleep on those. ’cause , I think when I looked at the other night, it was like 30% off on the website and then the live Big Betsy code gets you an additional 20%. So it’s a huge difference. And those stocks are lovely. So. Just wanted to shout out Cozy Earth and remind you guys, I know I’m gonna wear , my bathrobe , to the fireside chat. I have no shame. I love that thing, so I will show up in that. , But I’m really excited to see everybody, so hopefully you’ll be able to make it. All right. So today, okay, so this is kind of a vulnerable thing, but , I, I wanted to share something because I. I talk a lot on the show about unconscious change and how we show up in the world and , a little bit of magic. I think. I love a little bit of magic in the universe and , one of the things that I have done for years is I use a journal on my iPad called Day One. You’ve probably heard me talk about this before, but it is a online journal. It’s an app on my phone and on my iPad. I use it on my iPad. I’ve used it for, I don’t know, probably 12 years, maybe more. And I love this thing because it’s easy. I like, , we continue to do things that are simple, right, and easy. And it gives me a chance in the morning to just sort of like. Data dump, like everything that’s on my mind and whenever I have a dream that was really vivid, I like to write it out with all the detail that I can remember. And I find this really helpful because it helps me remember the dream and I can think about it later and figure out what this means. But also one of the cool things about this journal is it’ll tell me like, this is what you said last year, this is what you said three years ago, 10 years ago. And , sometimes we forget. How much we’ve grown or how much we’ve changed unless it’s right in front of us, , unless it’s like something that we can actually see to compare. And I think we all have this habit, I’m gonna say like a really bad habit where we’re looking forward, right? These are the things I wanna experience. This is what I wanna have in my life. These are the things not working. And so when we’re comparing it to the future, it appears as. Lack, it appears as absence because we’re not where we wanna be, but when we have a chance to reflect and to say, look at where I was and now look where I am. It might be where you are physically, it might be where you live. It might be goals you’ve reached. It might just be, I am shifting and changing and I’m moving forward. And there were years where I would look back at a year ago, two years ago, and I would say to myself, oh my God, , I’m talking about the same exact things. Like I feel like I haven’t changed or grown at all. Like when am I gonna get. Unstuck. But the truth now that I can see when there’s been a little bit more space, and I can look back, I can see that this is actually like turtle, right? Like a turtle. Like little tiny shifts moving me in the direction that I want. And that’s really, really important. So what I wanna do is I wanna talk about a dream that I had last year. So it was right around this time last year and I was on that day that I was taking that little nap. It was so windy, windy out, and I opened my journal and I wrote it in my journal, and then I was like, I’m gonna take a little nap. But in my journal, I looked back and then sometimes I’ll look back at the year before or two years before, but then I’ll look at days surrounding it, you know? I’m like, what was going on? Just so I can remember. And. I had a dream last year and I wanna tell you about this dream. And it’s not because I think dreams are, , mystical or predictive in some like woo woo way, but it’s because I have learned both personally and professionally that when something inside you knows the truth before you are ready to face it. It often speaks to us through our unconscious, and our unconscious speaks to us in metaphor. And so this dream actually happened in one of the final months that I was still living in the same house as my now former husband. And the timing of that really matters because emotionally, , the relationship was over. We were trying to sell the house. It took quite a while, and so we were living in close proximity, but. The relationship was over. My nervous system knew it , just that my body was still there. And when you live like that for too long, right? When your inner world and your outer life are out of sync, something starts trying to get your attention. And so in this dream, I was at the airport. Now I wanna share this dream because, and I’m gonna relate it back , to you and why this. Could be helpful. Okay, so I’m at the airport. It’s not a normal airport though. It’s , packed, like wall to wall to wall people. So as far as you could see, like a sea of people. And , you’re in a crowd, so there’s just, you’re not really walking regular. You’re like shuffling. You know that feeling. So I get this feeling that everyone’s moving really fast. Like everybody is going someplace. They know where they’re going and they’re all. Moving and bumping into me. So I’m like, goochie, goochie, goochie. And they’re bumping into me and I feel like I am not able to actually take a step forward. And , airports are in between places, right? You’re not where you were and you’re not yet where you’re going. You’re in this like in-between place. And that is exactly where I was in my life at that time. So. In this dream. I was traveling with him, but I wasn’t walking beside him. I was following him. So he was like way ahead of me, completely unaware that I was even there just doing his thing, right? He just kept moving forward and I was getting pushed around, like losing my footing, trying to keep up, and in my dream he never turned around and that’s the image that I remember. I remember feeling like I was. Almost a kid getting lost in the shuffle, ? And I, think that experience of my life at that time is reflected in that dream, because that’s where their relationship was , at that time. I, felt like. I was orienting around him, like tracking him or adjusting to him. And when you live that way long enough, , you lose your own internal compass. And at some point in the dream, I realized that I had a backpack that was gone. So I wasn’t carrying the backpack on my shoulders. I had been holding it like by the top straps. You know how sometimes backpacks have that little handle? So I was holding it by that, so it was like an accessory. So at the moment that I realized I was missing the backpack is the same moment that I realized I actually had been carrying a backpack, if that makes sense. And then I looked down and realized it was just gone. It was like I noticed my hand first. I don’t remember setting it down. I don’t remember like choosing to let it go. I just looked down and it was missing, and I think that’s how this actually happens. Like we don’t wake up one day and decide to abandon ourselves. We adapt and we accommodate and we make it work. Until one day we look around and we think, like, where did I go? And I tried to backtrack through the crowd in my dream, and eventually I found a backpack that I thought looked like mine. It was like the same pattern, like the same kind of backpack, but it was empty and it wasn’t quite the right size. And I remember thinking in the dream, and I wrote this in my journal that I don’t even know if this is mine anymore. I think this is like such an important moment because from the outside my life looked the same. Like the same house I was, looked like the same woman. It looked like the same marriage. Right. But inside it was empty. It was empty backpack. And , I don’t think, when I look back I’m like, that wasn’t unhappiness. That was dissociation. Right. Dissociated from what was happening and in my dream, I went to the gate attendant and I told them that the only picture that I had of my mother who died when I was 16, was in that bag. It wasn’t true. I even wrote that in my journal. Like I told her a lie that the only picture I had of my mom was in that backpack because I needed her to understand how serious this felt and that I needed help and I needed somebody to see me. And so they tried and they were confused. And then eventually , the,. Gate attendant, just admitted that she couldn’t do anything. And so I just turned around and just walked away. I just decided to move on, and that is when I realized that my phone was gone too. My voice, like my connection, my ability to call for help, everything was gone. And here’s what I want you to hear in this. This dream wasn’t about my marriage. It, and I wanna say that again. He’s had a, he has his own experience of that. Like it is not about him. It’s not about my marriage. It was about my identity erosion. It was about what happens when you stay in a life that no longer fits for way too long. And I think when we talk about metaphor and , our unconscious minds speaking to us through our dreams. , That backpack was my identity. It was my needs, , my internal resources, and I wasn’t wearing it. I was carrying it by that little handle so lightly so that I could maneuver around other people. And that is what I think self abandonment actually looks like. It’s not like some big dramatic event. It’s not obvious. It’s reasonable. Subtle, and I see this all the time in my work, women who tell me that they can’t quite put their finger on it, like they feel kind of numb or lost or disconnected. And so they think , , that they’re broken, but they’re not. They’re just, I would say like disembodied. Right? And so. I wanted to share that dream because I think it’s was such a good metaphor for where so many of us are and where so many of us are, whether we’re feeling lost or dissociated from a relationship or a job, or after your kids leave to , go off to college and you’re alone for the first time. Like so many things. And so I think that when we think about. A big life, and I’m using air quotes, right? ’cause I talk about a big life. A big life isn’t some fancy living on a yacht. , That’s not what I mean by a big life. I mean, choosing yourself, right? It’s not about blowing everything up. It’s not about dramatic things. It’s , it’s not about certainty even. It’s about embodiment. Embodiment, right? It’s about. Wearing your life, that backpack, instead of carrying it so loosely that anybody could knock it out of your hand. Wearing your life means , that your values live inside your body, not just inside your head. Right? It means that when you speak and something feels off, instead of talking yourself out of it. It means you listen to it, right? It means you, you know what your yes and your no are, and that those come from inside your body, not from managing someone else’s comfort. Most people, and , I’m including myself in this, we don’t lose ourselves because of one big thing. It’s not one big event that happened. We lose ourselves because we are so great at adapting. At, making ourselves smaller to keep things calm or low maintenance or understanding. And then one day you wake up and you realize that you’ve been holding yourselves by the little tiny strap. And so. , If you’ve been struggling in your relationship or in your job or anything where you’re like, should I stay or should I go? Here’s the question that I wanna leave you with, is instead of that, I want you to ask yourself like, where am I managing my life? Instead of inhabiting it, , where am I carrying myself instead of standing in myself? , I think we can abandon ourselves in a million different ways. And, , I’ll say it again, it, had less to do with my ex-husband. It had to do with me. I was the one doing that. I was the one choosing that. And yes, there’s were circumstances around it, but in the end it was when I decided to. Fully embody myself when I decided that I was gonna put myself first, when I decided that being kind wasn’t the end all, be all that what if being kind and people saw me as being so kind. It’s not that I don’t wanna be kind to people. That’s not what I’m saying, but perhaps that was an indicator that. Yeah, I was putting everyone else first and that I didn’t always need to do that. There are times where I put my daughter first and that feels right. That is the right thing to do, and I want to do that, and there are times when I don’t. So having the discernment of that, I think is really important so that we don’t lose ourselves. Because when you can start wearing your life again, that’s when clarity comes back to you. And , this year for me, I don’t know if you saw on Instagram, but every year I give myself an award. So I order these crystal awards from Crown Awards. And this year my award was, , the Chrysalis Award This year has been. So transformative for me, not because I did some big thing or not because I, , had some big, huge success. Like it wasn’t that. It was that I started feeling really solid, that I started really leaning into my body as an oracle, that I started really trusting myself in a totally different way and hearing myself. And I stopped getting lost in that big crowd getting bumped around. So it’s not, , the art of living big isn’t about becoming louder. It is about becoming solid, right? It’s about putting your backpack back on your shoulders, fully, like strapped in with the little strap around the front. You know that clicks in that. That is how you live a big life. I hope you all have a really, really happy holiday. However you celebrate. I hope you have a hopeful New Year, and that 2026 becomes everything that you want it to be, and you get to decide. You get to decide how that goes. All right. I love you so much. I’ll see you after the new year. Thanks for joining me on The Art of Living Big.

Today, I am delighted to be joined by the pioneers who changed everything for me. They are Larry and Belinda Wurn, the creators of Clear Passage therapy. We are diving into a topic today that was pivotal in my own fertility journey. We're talking about adhesions, the invisible internal bonds that form after surgery, infection, or trauma, quietly disrupting your body in ways most people never suspect. They can block fallopian tubes, trigger chronic pain, cause bowel obstructions, and prevent conception, yet most women are unaware of them. After being left with a frozen pelvis and debilitating pain following surgery and radiation, doctors told Belinda she would live with pain forever. Larry and Belinda refused to accept that, and over the next 40 years, they developed a therapy that has helped about 2,000 women reverse infertility, avoid major surgeries, and reclaim their lives without drugs or surgery. Their work was game-changing for me, and I know it can help many of you, too.  Stay tuned to learn what adhesions are, how they affect fertility and overall health, and how this remarkable therapy works. Techniques to Reduce Adhesion-Related Tightness Gentle abdominal massage using light fingertip pressure over the abdomen Diaphragmatic breathing to relax the abdominal wall and support tissue glide Pelvic and hip mobility movements (slow tilts, circles, and side bends) Walking or other low-impact movement to maintain circulation and flexibility Soft myofascial stretching with long, gentle holds Light heat therapy to relax superficial tension and improve comfort Bio: Larry & Belinda Wurn Larry and Belinda Wurn are physical therapists who have spent over 40 years developing Clear Passage®️ therapy, a non surgical, drug free, hands on approach designed to reduce adhesions and restore function. Their work began after Belinda developed a frozen pelvis following surgery and radiation in 1984. When doctors warned further surgery would worsen her condition, the couple pursued extensive training and began creating manual techniques to decrease adhesions naturally. Clear Passage®️ therapy has been supported by peer reviewed research and shown to reverse infertility, reduce chronic pain, improve sexual function, and clear bowel obstructions. The Wurns train therapists internationally, with clinics serving patients across the USA and UK. In this episode: What adhesions are, and why most women never even know they have them How adhesions impact women's health and fertility Why conventional scans cannot detect adhesions How trained practitioners detect the presence of adhesions The benefits of Clear Passage Therapy over conventional treatment  The best way to schedule your Clear Passage therapy sessions for the most effective results  How to maintain the results after Clear Passage therapy Links and Resources: ⁠⁠Use code CREATINE to get 10% off Creatine Calocurb Clinical — Appetite & Craving SupportA practitioner-exclusive, plant-based supplement designed to enhance your body's natural fullness signals (GLP-1 and PYY), helping reduce cravings and calorie intake.

Burnout is something we hear about constantly when we're working with churches. This topic is incredibly timely and personal for a lot of pastors.

In this episode, Sean and Amy are joined by Jimmy McLoud, the Lead Pastor of First Christian Church in Canton, Ohio and a ministry consultant on the Unstuck team, to talk about how burnout affects church staff members.   This episode is sponsored by Donorbox: Still relying on cash and checks for offerings?

Feeling stuck in ND corporate grind or creative chaos? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April chats getting unstuck for neurodivergent entrepreneurs with Murielle Ungricht, autistic business coach (25 years experience, founded/sold businesses, certified master career coach). Late-diagnosed autistic, TEDx speaker/author of "Get Unstuck!" (self-help for procrastination/overthinking), and founder/CEO of Nuumani.com (AI-human coaching platform for accessible support), Murielle mentors "unconventional" creatives/ND folks to trade fear for joy—focusing on entrepreneurship/productivity/mental health/trauma/leadership/feminism. Key insights: Late diagnosis journey: From feeling "wrong" to embracing gifts (detail-oriented/resilient routines); measure personal wins, not NT standards. Unstuck formula: Recognize autistic strengths (structure/habits) for success; trial/error to build sustainable systems (e.g., batching content to avoid overwhelm). Perfectionism/self-sabotage: Rewire negative voice (mindfulness: "Is it true? What if opposite?"); drop bars gradually—produce "good enough" without procrastination. AI coaching (Nuumani): Democratizes access (free sessions/human network); combines her tech/coaching background for ND-friendly tools. Young autistics: Find formula for world not built for you—expose to new safely, forgive meltdowns, seek support; "so what?" mindset for fearless living. Advice: Don't worry—start now; connect dots with strengths (big picture + detail); consistency over blueprints (AI helps, but human touch essential). For autistic/ADHD young adults/entrepreneurs, Murielle's vibe: "Be unreasonable for amazing life—autism isn't barrier, it's superpower."

Thank you to our sponsors, Vastu Feng Shui. Hey Friends, This episode was spectacular.  In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Jennifer Hough, best-selling author of UNSTUCK and founder of The Wide Awakening, to explore what it means to become a “cosmic instigator”, someone who catalyzes quantum leaps in love, business, and consciousness. Jennifer unpacks the science and spirit of holographic seeing, describing how we can perceive reality beyond linear time, and how thriving—not surviving—becomes the entry point to expanded awareness.“You can't imagine something that doesn't already exist. Imagination is simply the door to a parallel reality that's waiting for you to step into it.” -Jennifer HoughWe talk about the following and so much more:What it really means to “quantum jump” into a parallel realityWhy paradigm shifts can rewrite hundreds of beliefs at onceHow resistance is simply feedback guiding us toward flowThe role of biology in attuning to new dimensions of beingThe illusion of control — and how to partner with universal intelligence insteadYou'll get a free month's access for the Agents of Awakening course through this link: https://thewideawakening.com/aoa-30day-ac/?referredby1=Yasmeen%20Turayhi.

This is one of Rachael's favorite episodes, ever — join Paul as he tells us about Cai Emmons's new book The Bells. Paul Calandrino is a playwright, educator, and actor based in Eugene, Oregon, where Cai and he lived until she died. Since she passed, he has been curating her literary legacy with the release of this book, and he is currently collecting her blog content into book form. Cai Emmons (1951-2023) was the author of seven novels and a story collection, Vanishing. The Bells, is her final novel. She held a BA from Yale University and two MFAs, one from New York University in film and the other from the University of Oregon in fiction. Before turning to fiction, Emmons wrote plays and screenplays. Winner of a Student Academy Award, an Oregon Book Award, and the Leapfrog Global Fiction Prize, and finalist for the Narrative, The Missouri Review, and the Sarton awards, she taught at a variety of institutions, most recently in the creative writing program at the University of Oregon. She died in 2023 from Bulbar-onset ALS, a fast-progressing form of the disease that had taken her voice. The Bells, which features a protagonist with ALS, has just been released by Red Hen Press.

In this episode, I share a real-life story about how a small disagreement with my husband over moving the car turned into a surprisingly emotional moment. What could have easily led to resentment or conflict became an opportunity to pause, reflect, and get unSTUCK using the method I teach. You'll hear how a simple voice message shifted the dynamic and created space for understanding, connection, and repair. This story is a powerful reminder that it's not about the car—it's about how we choose to show up when things don't go our way. It's just about 10 minutes—perfect for a quick reset and real-life inspiration. www.shiragura.com

Starting a business after years in a traditional role can feel strangely uncomfortable, even when you're completely capable and deeply committed. The truth is, so much of what feels hard going from employee to entrepreneur has nothing to do with your ability or desire; it's about the patterns and habits those corporate roles unintentionally shaped in you over time. In this episode, you'll discover how to consciously grow into the CEO version of yourself, even if you're still in your nine-to-five. Through specific questions and practices, you'll learn to interrupt those old habits of urgency, perfectionism, and overworking. Most importantly, you'll understand that thinking like a CEO is what creates the business, not the other way around.

When Rest Feels Wrong: Why You Can't Relax & How to Feel Safe RestingDo you ever sit down to rest… and immediately feel tense, guilty, or like you “should” be doing something?In this episode of The Restored Minds Show, licensed therapist Matt Codde, LCSW explores why rest can actually feel unsafe for people living in chronic anxiety, stress, or high-performance mode. Matt explains how busyness becomes a persona, how overworking turns into emotional avoidance, and why your nervous system doesn't trust stillness — even when your life looks “successful” on the outside.If you feel restless when you slow down, or you only allow yourself to rest when you've “earned it,” this episode will help you understand what's really going on underneath and how to start re-teaching your body that it's safe to stop.

This Thanksgiving week, instead of feeling overwhelmed by the demands of family, travel, and work, try a "Rampage of Appreciation" to reset your nervous system and reconnect with gratitude. In this episode, I share how this simple practice helps shift your mindset from stress and tension to clarity and calm so that you can approach your day with more ease. You'll learn how to use this tool to find appreciation in the small things, even during the chaos, and how it can help you move forward with more emotional safety and confidence in both your business and personal life.

Olympic champion Bode Miller is the greatest USA Downhill Skier of all time. But it wasn't because he was bigger, stronger, or more athletically gifted than his competitors. It's because of the absolute mastery of his mind, and the way he merged the spiritual with the physical. I have NEVER met a single human with more control over their thoughts than Bode. In this podcast we discuss these advanced techniques: Whether it is the complexity of how he processed the grief from the tragic loss of his daughter, to the simplicity of how to get a song UNSTUCK from your head. We also enter into some of our unique perspectives concerning the non-physical dimensions and how those beliefs are not just tangential, but essential to living your best life.| Bode Miller | ►Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/millerbode/►X | https://x.com/MillerBodeThis episode is sponsored by►Korrect Life | https://korrectlife.com/| Aubrey Marcus |Website | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2GesYqi ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2BlfCEO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2F4nBZk ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X |  ⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2BlGBAdAd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/email⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To partner with the Aubrey Marcus Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus podcast:iTunes | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://apple.co/2lMZRCn ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stitcher | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2G8ccJt ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠IHeartRadio | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ihr.fm/3CiV4x3 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
