    561: How to Love ALL People (Especially Those You Disagree With)

    Last week, I shared a quote from Mark Groves on Instagram about reconciling our differences, especially in the context of voting and politics. Unsurprisingly, the responses varied—some resonated deeply, while others disagreed. 

    And that's okay because it brought to light a truth I've been reflecting on all week: Love and understanding aren't conditional. They're not reserved for those who agree with us or share our worldview. Every single person is worthy of compassion, regardless of their background or beliefs.

    In today's episode, you'll walk away with a simple question that will transform how you approach your relationships with friends, family members, or anyone with different views and opinions. 

    This simple but powerful mindset shift will help you understand where they're coming from and empower you to show up with empathy, love, and understanding, even in the most challenging interactions. In a world that often feels very divided, this can help us create a ripple effect of kindness and understanding when it's needed most.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Seeing the world through unconditional love changes everything
    • Everyone’s fighting their own battles, even if you can’t see them
    • When someone’s being harsh, that’s when they need kindness the most
    • People aren’t inherently good or bad - it all comes down to their choices
    • Love won’t fix everything, but it works wonders for the struggles inside you

    560: Moving Forward After the Election

    For those of you who follow me on Instagram, you may have seen the post I made on the morning of the US Election last week, long before the results were known. That post was about finding a positive way to move forward, no matter who won. 

    Not surprisingly, it generated many comments and reactions, some positive and some negative, which is to be expected with any presidential election—especially this one.

    Now that the election is over, and whether you are celebrating or mourning the results, I want to offer an empowering perspective on how we can accept reality exactly as it is, take personal responsibility for our lives, and move forward effectively. 

    The only way I know how is by accepting reality exactly as it is and focusing on the things that are within our control. What other choice do you have? While politicians create policies, they don’t control your growth, your relationships, or your mindset. Only you have that power. 

    So, I invite you to take a deep breath… and listen to this episode with an open heart and an open mind. I love you so much, and I sincerely hope today’s episode leaves you feeling at peace with the things you cannot change and empowered to focus your energy on the things that you can control. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • We all have more in common than we think
    • Focusing on things outside of our control prevents us from moving forward
    • The most important choice we make is how we show up each day
    • Taking full ownership of your life is the first step to real change.

    559: How to Create Your (External) Reality

    Last week, I shared the steps for creating an inner reality that’s in sync with who you want to be. This week, we’re taking it one step further and exploring how to build the life you truly want to live by understanding the connection between your inner beliefs and your ability to create your external reality.

    I will walk you through the practical strategies that helped me escape from feeling unfocused, undisciplined, and unsuccessful to building a life I’m proud of. These are simple strategies you can start applying today in any area where you want to see change, whether it’s relationships, finances, or your health.

    You’ll learn that creating a life you love doesn’t rely on perfect timing or bursts of motivation. It’s about consistently taking small steps each day that might seem insignificant but will gradually transform the world around you. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Get used to being uncomfortable, that’s where growth happens
    • To have goals that matter, you need a clear picture of where you’re headed
    • Every result you want comes from following a specific process
    • Don’t get caught up in daily wins or losses. Trust the process
    • What you believe internally shapes what you see externally
    • Surround yourself with people and places that inspire and motivate you

    558: How to Create Your Own (Internal) Reality

    In today’s episode, I’m doing something that I rarely do. This is a throwback to episode# 324, which was all about creating your own reality. The big reason is that this episode will be a perfect setup for next week’s episode, which will focus on creating your own external reality. So stay tuned for that. But first, let’s dive into today’s episode.

    How would you describe your current reality? Are you primarily experiencing states of love, joy, bliss, and enthusiasm? Or do you find yourself enduring feelings of stress, anxiety, fear, and general negativity – more often than you’d like? 

    If you’re feeling the latter more than the former, there is no better time than now to remember that your reality is determined by what you focus on—habitually and over an extended period of time—and you have the power within you to create a reality that both feels great and enables you to transform any area of your life. 

    If you’re feeling anything less than optimum, right now, I want to extend a challenge to you. In today’s episode, I talk about how I’ve transformed my Scribing practice to gain more clarity, solve my problems, and ultimately create the reality I want to live in – and how you can do the same. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • The first lesson I learned about personal growth at the age of 19 - and what made me realize how negative my reality had become.
    • How thinking gradually affects us, why it takes us so long to notice, and the exercise I want you to do to clearly understand your current reality.
    • The difference between journaling by hand vs. using a smartphone or computer – and why one may be more effective than the other. .
    • How to envision your new, positive, upgraded reality.
    • Why you should start free writing every day - and why all the wisdom you need is already within you.

    557: A Tribute to John Ruhlin - The Power of Thoughtful Gifting

    We all want to feel appreciated, and one of the most powerful ways to show love and gratitude to someone is through the art of gift-giving. Especially when the gift is both incredibly thoughtful and unexpected, which is something I learned from one of the best to ever do it.

    Today’s episode is a tribute to one of my dearest friends, John Ruhlin, who tragically passed away recently. John was the author of Giftology, a book that has completely transformed how I think about leveraging the power of thoughtful gift-giving to optimize my personal and professional relationships. 

    John was literally one of the best gift-givers in the world and a great friend to everyone in his orbit. For 25 years, I had the privilege of learning countless things from him. Today, I’m sharing 5 key lessons he taught me on how to build better relationships through the art of radical generosity.

    When giving someone a gift is done right, it can strengthen the bonds with the people you love and even transform your professional and personal relationships. John made it an art form, and I’m excited to pass on his wisdom to you. 

    If you’d like to support John’s legacy further, you can get a 70% discount for his Referral Partner Transformation course. All proceeds will go directly to John’s wife, Lindsey, and their four beautiful daughters.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Go beyond the usual and create genuine “Wow” moments with your gifts
    • Go all in when it comes to appreciating others
    • Make the gift about them, not you
    • How to make sure your gift hits the mark and with their loved ones too
    • You don’t need to spend a fortune to get the perfect gift

    556: Reclaiming Who You Truly Are

    Have you ever had times in your life where you feel like you’re taking two steps forward and one step back? Or maybe even three or four steps back? Most people do. But it’s important to remember that personal growth isn’t always a straight line of progress. And nobody is perfect every single day.

    In today’s episode, I’m sharing two journaling exercises to help you reclaim who you truly are. I’ll encourage you to grab your journal and reflect on a time when you were at your absolute best. Think of everything you’ve overcome and accomplished in your life, and prepare to write a letter to yourself in the 3rd person.

    This exercise only works if you’re prepared to be brutally honest with yourself. That means being real about how you’re feeling right now and how you feel about the people around you. These two steps aren’t just about identifying where you need to grow emotionally, physically, or spiritually. They’re also about recognizing and appreciating how far you’ve already come so you can move forward with renewed energy and bring the people in your life along for the ride.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Acknowledge your challenges instead of running away from them 
    • You can’t solve a problem if you don’t recognize there is one
    • Transform your life by transforming yourself
    • Nobody is perfect every day, and that’s completely OK
    • Sharing your insecurities takes courage and encourages others to do the same

    555: How to Optimize Your Miracle Mornings to Achieve Your Most Important Goals

    Do you ever struggle with consistency when it comes to your Miracle Morning routine? Even though you know you’ll feel better if you do it, motivating yourself to do it consistently can be challenging. 

    Whether you’ve fallen off your morning routine recently or you’re looking for ways to uplevel your Miracle Mornings, this episode has something for everyone.

    Today, I’m sharing how you can approach your Miracle Morning in a way that will enable you to achieve your most important goals using the strategy I’ve used for years. This approach helped me run an ultramarathon, beat cancer, double my income during the 2008 recession, and gave me the confidence to face every challenge head-on. 

    This approach works great for boosting mental health and productivity or being more mindful. But it’s even more powerful when you focus on one main goal at a time. Whether you’re trying to improve your finances, relationships, marriage, or mental health - this approach will get you closer to your dreams. Before long you’ll start feeling a dramatic shift in your mindset and energy long before you hit those milestones. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • You can train your mind to focus on the positives, even when it feels like the world’s falling apart
    • The mindset shifts that will turn calm and inner peace as your daily default
    • Affirmations are your personal growth superpower
    • If it’s not on your schedule, it’s not real. You commit to your goals by making time for them
    • Attack the scariest, most daunting tasks first, then everything else will feel like a breeze

    554: How Can We Talk WITH God?

    Do you ever talk with God (or whatever you call that voice of wisdom that seems to know better than you do)? 

    In other words, rather than praying or meditating and hoping something magical happens, do you ever pray or meditate to set an intention and then quiet your mind to receive valuable clarity, wisdom, and guidance specific to your needs?

    I usually do this first thing in the morning (during my SAVERS) and right before bed, and when I do, I consistently receive what I refer to as “downloads.”  I call them downloads because they enter my consciousness so fast that I find myself writing as quickly as possible without any conscious thought. I’m not thinking; I’m just taking dictation. 

    In today’s episode, I’ll share how you can use periods of purposeful Silence to receive wisdom and create extraordinary breakthroughs without needing to follow a specific spiritual path. Whether you’re religious, atheist, agnostic, or simply someone searching for answers, this process can be transformative for you. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • There is a universal intelligence that we can all tap into
    • Letting go of control makes room for the extraordinary
    • We crave certainty, but the universe is beyond our understanding 
    • Hold your beliefs confidently, but stay open to other possibilities
    • Three book recommendations to help you deepen this ability

    Most of us go through life feeling like we’re falling short. Whether it’s at work, our relationships, or even just how we see ourselves, the pressure to be perfect can be overwhelming at times.

    In today’s episode, we’re diving into what it means to be perfect as you are. You’ll learn how to handle setbacks without feeling like a failure, use those moments as a chance to grow, and recognize areas where you can improve without letting that take away from your self-worth. 

    Most importantly, you’ll see how embracing your imperfections can lead to a deeper sense of self-acceptance. You’ll learn practical ways to shift your mindset so that you can appreciate who you are now, even as you continue to grow. By doing that, you’ll be able to show up for others with more compassion and authenticity, helping them feel the same sense of worthiness you’re learning to embrace.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS
