Feeling stuck?  Don't know what to do next to accomplish you big goal?  Afraid that you don't have the expertise or the resources to get the big win?  Fear not!  You are not a team of one.  You are part of Team Human and you have literally billions of other resources at your disposal... if you'll have the humility to ask for a little help.  In this episode we discuss the importance of leveraging the expertise of others.

I recently entered our Bootcamp in a Tough Mudder 5k obstacle course run.  Some were excited.  Others were apprehensive.  The question that keeps arising... "Can I do it?"  Allow me to make the case of why not only can you do it, but why you should.  The totality of your ancestry and the outreaches of our future may depend on it.  Let's dive in.

You want to get "better"... but you're not sure if the effort is worth the journey.  You know your current life isn't optimal... but it's easier to stay there than go through the hardship that awaits you in the desert that lies between you and your goal.  Or is it?  Do you really know what "better" looks like?  Really??... Let's discuss.

Are you playing smaller than you were meant to.  Riddled with the lingering feeling that you're not "worthy" of the chances and opportunities that life keeps throwing your way.  It's time to break out little fishy!  It's time to grow into the shark you were always meant to become.  

Antibiotics are the go to tool of Western medicine to knock out colds and get you back to 100% ASAP.  But... are they safe?  Are there side effects?  Are there things we need to be aware of?  And are there better ways to restore health in a natural way?  Let's chat.

We've all got our different set of difficulties to deal with in life.  We've all got unique pains and challenges and hardships that are unique to us.  Some people allow the "uniqueness" of their situation to justify their place in life at the victim.  Whether it's true or not is irrelevant.  What's relevant is what you're going to do about it.  If you've found yourself playing the "Toe Sock Rodeo" will you continue to seek out reasons and excuses not to change?  Or will you seek the advice of an expert to help you get where you want to go?

Have you ever seen a kid eat their own booger?  Gross as it may seem, there may be ancestral, physiological, and biological reasons for doing this.  Kids need to get dirty.  They need proper nutrition.  They need to be resilient.  But today's environment sometimes robs them of this opportunity.  How can you raise some super human kiddos?  Let's discuss.

Forgiving your enemies feels like something that you're doing as a favor to the person that has done you wrong.  But forgiveness is actually a powerful gift to yourself to help you move past the inevitable traumas that you'll be faced with in your life.

Usually when I see a homeless person at a corner I stare straight ahead and will the light to turn green to end the awkwardness.  The reasons I acted that way (and the reasons I changed my ways) are directly connected to the stories I told myself.  What stories are you telling yourself.  Are you clinging to narratives that are preventing you from wrestling your truest potential?

Sometimes in life we're able to accomplish great feats by pushing a little more, by giving a little more, by digging a little deeper.  Sometimes though, we need to harness our other emotions, our other resources, our other skills, our other end of the spectrum.  True power lies somewhere between rage and intensity.  Sometimes, to get over the hump, we have to pull from both ends.  The point where fury and fun meet.  

Fasting... it seems to be all the rage.  Wolverine's doing it.  The Rock's doing it.  J Lo's doing it.  But should you be doing it?  What's this fasting thing all about.  What's the science?  How do we execute it? What are the benefits?  What are some of the myths around it?  Let's discuss.

Remember the story of the 3 Little Pigs??... Do you remember the real version?  Believe me when I tell you, the stakes are high!  What can we draw from this children's story to better live our own lives?  The Big Bad Wolf is coming... will you be prepared?

You've been there.  It's the bad place.  Where you're not yourself.  You're not in flow.  You're pissed off at the world.  You're not even wanting to get out of bed.  You're in the "funk".  BUT... you don't have to stay there.  The myth that we all have good days and bad days is so common that we believe it to be fact.  But the truth is you have the power to change your state.  You have the power to dissolve a funk.  You have the power to keep those bad feelings from becoming a bad day, a bad week, or a bad month.  You have the power.  Not the funk.  Let's talk about some ingredients in that antidote.
