July 28, 2021 08:00 - 18 minutes - 19.4 MBIf you’ve ever felt misunderstood and made it mean that you’re not a good communicator, people don’t listen to you, or people just don’t “get” you, then you’ll want to listen to this episode.

# 117: Too Much Fantasy (MINI)
June 02, 2021 08:00 - 10 minutes - 11.4 MBMost Stressed Out Successes fantasize TOO much about what could have been not realizing that this type of indulgence is blinding them to the opportunities that exist right now. Instead of looking ahead and feeling good now, we spend our free moments throughout the day kicking ourselves for what could have been and fantasizing about how life could be right now if we had chosen differently. The ironic twist to it all? We have no idea if our fantasies would have come true but we consisten...

# 115: Why Most Stressed Out Successes Fail Too Early
May 12, 2021 08:00 - 7 minutes - 8.51 MBHave you ever faced a new role or project and found yourself too overwhelmed with stress that it actually prevented you (or made it really hard) from achieving your goals? In this short episode I’m sharing why most Stressed Out Successes fail in advance… even BEFORE the actual result presents itself. When we don’t manage our brain, it will always lead to unnecessary stress which then compounds the failure we experience in our mind. And over time, this stress becomes so overbearing for ou...

April 28, 2021 08:00 - 19 minutes - 20.7 MBIn this episode I’m sharing why we must balance our results with pleasure, and why every endeavor we engage in doesn’t always have to give us a result, other than the pure enjoyment of having done it.

#113: How To Resolve People Pleasing
April 21, 2021 08:00 - 18 minutes - 19.6 MBAre you growing resentful at the people around you, requests that come through, or even your own calendar? Do you ever wonder to yourself, "Why don't I have more time to do the things I WANT to do?"? Believe it or not, so many Stressed Out Successes find themselves blurring the lines between a strong work ethic and people pleasing. But just because you can do the job (and do it fast!), it doesn’t always mean that you’re doing it for the right reasons. When we don’t understand why we’...
#112: Pain vs. Fear
April 14, 2021 08:00 - 24 minutes - 25.9 MBOftentimes indulging in our own illogical fear prevents us from taking action, which then results in future pain. For example, if you’ve ever needed to hire someone but the fear of hiring the WRONG person keeps you from making the hire, the pain you eventually feel (whether that’s burnout from working longer hours, dealing with customer service, or slow growth) drives you to take action immediately. That is because pain drives action. But what I want to pose on this episode this week i...

April 07, 2021 08:00 - 19 minutes - 20.1 MBBelieve it or not most Stressed Out Successes are living within this invisible BOX of what they think their lives need to look like... ... without ever questioning their deepest desires first. If you’ve ever felt unsatisfied or even unhappy as you were going after a goal, it could very well be an indication of operating within your BOX instead of your heart. Or, perhaps you've ALREADY reached your goal only to realize it wasn't what you really wanted. Can you relate? Which is exact...

#108: Fear of Losing Success
March 17, 2021 08:00 - 18 minutes - 19.4 MBThis week’s conversation is all about the fear of losing success. Perhaps you’re stressed because you’re trying to keep it all together and maintain what you’ve worked so hard to finally have in your life; and the fear of losing it all is gripping you with fear. The truth is, you can’t “lose” success, and the only reason why you believe you can lose it is because you are operating from the belief that the title, the role, or the money is something SEPARATE from you. Listen to this week...

#105: Completing The Past
February 24, 2021 09:00 - 25 minutes - 25.4 MBOftentimes we have trouble letting go of the past because of how we think it’s affecting us now. We say to ourselves: "If that work incident never happened then I'd be more confident." "If only I had handled it differently... I'd be in a completely different place."

And until we learn how to complete the past, we will continue to use our limited t...

February 17, 2021 09:00 - 23 minutes - 23.9 MBIf you’re like most Stressed Out Successes, part of the reason why you feel so stagnant in your career and personal life is because you are DENYING parts of who you really are. Think about it, how can you attract the right people and the right opportunities into your life if those people can’t even FIND the real you hidden behind the façade you show the world? And yet, most people try HARDER to be someone who they really aren’t. They believe that in order to reach that career goal or a...
#103: Fabricating Failures
February 10, 2021 09:00 - 17 minutes - 18.6 MBDo you often imagine the worst case scenario? Do you find yourself feeling bad for days or even weeks after an undesirable result, and this lack of productivity is costing you precious time at work and with the people you love?

February 03, 2021 09:00 - 17 minutes - 18.1 MBAre you tired of the conversations you have inside your head?

January 27, 2021 09:00 - 18 minutes - 19.9 MBIf you still have that goal that seems to elude you every single year, and just thinking about it stresses you out... You are probably stuck between the WANTING of this goal and the DECIDING of it. When we are stuck in the wanting of something, inevitably the reason why we haven’t realized our goal is because, unconsciously, we are also in the NOT wanting of our deepest desire. There are hidden thoughts and fears that are keeping us from truly going all in, and yet we still WANT our desire...
#100: Why Your Problem Is NOT The Problem
January 20, 2021 09:00 - 19 minutes - 21.5 MBMost Stressed Out Successes believe that if the problem just went away THEN their stress will go away too, and then everything will go back to normal.

No. The only reason why life seems that way right now is because you're presupposing that problems automatically equal something neg...

#97: How To Shift Into Abundance NOW
December 30, 2020 09:00 - 17 minutes - 17.8 MBMost stressed out successes believe that abundance is right around the corner. “Once I get that promotion, then I’ll really feel good.” “Once I make this much, then I’ll feel more secure.” “Once I meet my partner, I’ll feel loved and life will be an adventure!” Can you relate too?

#94: Resolving Restlessness
December 09, 2020 09:00 - 18 minutes - 20.5 MBRestlessness isn’t an easy feeling to deal with. Let's be real. In fact, when we DO feel it, most stressed successes constantly feel the need to fill their time. And when they can’t find anything to fill their time, this feeling of restlessness typically leads to feeling even more confused and ashamed about their life, overeating, pouring the extra glass of wine, scrolling their phone for someone to reach out to, or turning to work on miscellaneous, low priority tasks at work to pass t...

October 14, 2020 08:00 - 20 minutes - 22.3 MBEmail doesn’t cause your stress; if you think about it, email just sits in a virtual cloud and yet why do we let something such as email, bother us to the point where we can’t have a perfectly normal day without wondering, “I wonder what’s happened this time?”.

The good news, you can decondition...

Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case for many people around the world and that is because our brains never stop working and LOVES to solve problems.

September 23, 2020 08:00 - 23 minutes - 27.2 MBUnlike physical pain, so many high performers have a much higher tolerability to mental pain.

And we start searching for obscure articles on google trying to find the answer for why we feel terrible despite having a perfectly good life.

July 22, 2020 08:00 - 22 minutes - 24.2 MBWhat if I told you that the reason why we seek approval is because we don’t approve of our own self first? Think about it, if you 100% believed in yourself, ideas, product, and services, it wouldn’t matter what anyone thinks because you believe in yourself first. On the other hand, if someone else’s thought is supporting YOUR THOUGHTS of disapproval or doubt of what you have to offer the world, then to the unmanaged brain, it becomes second nature to constantly seek the people who DO app...
