123 - Where Is This Headed
March 13, 2019 07:00 - 7 minutes - 9.03 MBHere's your chance to jump on or GTFO. While a main purpose of this time together is to have some fun and wash off some of the grime of having a family and just life in general. There is a greater purpose here. MEDIOCRITY is killing us. Wake up and be real. No more filters, no "perfect life" on facebook, no competing among the other parents for the best snacks, but we need to be reminded that it's perfectly great to be authentically you. Refilling your cup and therefore passing that po...
122 - My Podcast Sucks (Part 2)
March 12, 2019 07:00 - 10 minutes - 12.5 MBIn my last episode, I opened that I came to the realization that this podcast sucks! So, let's talk about why I actually think that, and it's about my content I share. What is the whole point of this podcast? Or listening to a podcast in general, especially a daily one? Here are my theories for why we invest time on anything actually: Results There is is, so here is how I'm going to actually deliver now: I need to drop this need for you to like me. I need to polarize you. To either ...
121 - My Podcast Sucks (Part 1)
March 11, 2019 07:00 - 8 minutes - 10.7 MBBackstory I have listening to my podcast to really try and improve. And this is important to do. In fact, just like sports teams and athletes will watch game tapes, it's important that we do the same. It's the fastest way to improve your performance and therefore; results. It allows us to study ourselves without the emotion attached. So, I listen and I wanted to puke. But it's easy to tear yourself apart. It really is. Changes are being made; so let's talk about HOW I did this. I h...

117 - My Battery Died
December 12, 2018 08:00 - 6 minutes - 8.78 MBCrazy how if you really examine the good and bad events in your life, there is always some higher lesson. This happens to you to. In fact, there is a process to learn how to examine a previous event and figure out why it triggered an emotion and actually find a life lesson from that experience. Interested? Hit me up and private message me to learn more. Other source? Byron Katie's "Loving What Is" also goes through this process. But first, back to today's episode. My wife was h...
116 - Keep Up
December 11, 2018 08:00 - 5 minutes - 7.57 MBBackstory I had a work weekend where I shut myself into my office and I "beast mode" until I'm (1) all caught up, (2) finish my old projects, and (3) plan and strategize. This approach honestly sucks. It's NOT a path to success. It's stressful having projects hanging over my head. it's stressful having my bookkeeping wait until I have to do it. It's not easy on me or my family. I am reminded of doing a bootcamp of sorts for married business men. It's amazing but one of the princi...
115 - Create Space this Holiday
December 10, 2018 08:00 - 8 minutes - 11.1 MBBackstory My oldest daughter has a system. A lifehack about finding out if it's the REAL Santa or a FAKE Santa. Because most of the Santas we see out in public are indeed fake and not the real Santa Claus. This is important to her. So allow me to share just a few details of said life hack. The beard must be real. Most are too white and obviously not attached or even real hair. I mean, c'mon guys. The belly must also be real. We can tell if it's just stuffing and we can see it i...

111 - Right Now
November 05, 2018 08:00 - 7 minutes - 9.27 MBBackstory Like I touched on last week, I wanted to expand upon this principle of no longer waiting for "some day" or for some moment in the future to happen. Short recap: I was pushing my family and in my business and pushing for some imaginary finish line and saying, once I get there... then I will (relax, have fun, travel, seminars, etc.) So here it is now, I want to stress that this needs to happen right now. Your family, your clients, your spouse are all waiting for you to show u...
110 - What Are You Waiting For?
November 01, 2018 07:30 - 10 minutes - 12.8 MBThe Setup I had a revelation during an exercise where I reflect and review on a emotionally triggering event from the day before. I was digesting some frustrations at my son who is just getting so damn mad at me when I ask him to do normal easy things - like get dressed, or put shoes on, or get a coat on, or to put his clothing away. And after looking at this situation from multiple angles, I came to the realization that overall in many areas and situations of my life. I'm pressing so ...
109 - Meetings and Huddles
October 31, 2018 08:00 - 9 minutes - 11.9 MBThe Setup There are certain things in life that just work across the board. When it comes to business, some of these principles would actually really help out your personal life. Strategy towards a goal. Teamwork Clarity on those goals Bonuses Communication Communication is key all around and that's why I promote a daily morning huddle both in business and at home, but also a weekly marriage meeting. For my kids I employ a quick meeting check-in during their one on one date wit...
108 - I Believe In Myself
October 30, 2018 07:00 - 9 minutes - 11.2 MBBackstory This is a goal that a client stated today. I freaking loved it. But I also told her out of her list of goals, this would be the hardest! At first, she told me she wanted to lose 50 pounts. I couldn't accept that. In fact, I told her that no one actually wants to "lose anything" - the brain just hates that. So instead, we needed to change our focus TOWARDS something. Related Links: The Home for the SuperParent Syndrome Coaching with Me? The SuperParent Syndrome Faceb...
107 - Slow Down to Speed Up
October 29, 2018 07:00 - 6 minutes - 8.41 MBBackstory Here I am at my office late Sunday night, having to redo a software install for my office because I was rushing the process. I see this with my kids and their homework. They are rushing rushing rushing and end up having to start all over.

105 - I Don't Do It That Way
October 09, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 8.9 MBGod Bless my wife, she said this to me while we were doing demolition on our basement. What I wanted to say to this and what I did say to this was totally different. Because really... I was confused about why she would even say this to me. So this past weekend, we decided to rip out a kitchenette in our basement to make way for a family room. During this time, she thought I was angry and having a terrible time. She thought this because I was tearing things out and throwing scraps in a ...
104 - Tired vs Burned Out
October 05, 2018 09:00 - 7 minutes - 9.71 MBOn our coaching page a question was posed about how to know the difference between just being tired and needing rest, versus being tired and pushing through. Damn good question! I can honestly tell you that I'm tired when I first wake up and after the kids are in bed. But so is everyone else! Obviously! So, at those times, I literally say out loud, "Fuck that story" and I get up and move. Midday is a warning sign for me. So, I do a shift move (more of that in podcast) and meditat...
006 - They Mean Well
October 04, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 8.61 MBI was on my way to swim and my mom nearly derailed me. All my stories about my fears in swimming were reinforced in a matter of seconds. - She told me not to swim in the deep end. - My body is not designed for swimming. - I was going to drown.

101 - It's YOUR happiness
September 28, 2018 09:00 - 7 minutes - 9.51 MBBackstory I am a self-proclaimed former acceptance addict. As a healer and health professional, it's literally my job to help make people feel good again and I loved the attention and acceptance I gained from that. I would love the testimonials and the gratitude shown towards me for "miracles" performed after they tried everything else. The harder the case, the more I loved it. And I would be myself up mercilessly on those that didn't get the results I had hoped for. This extended t...
098 - The Calm
September 26, 2018 09:00 - 9 minutes - 12 MBI am terrible at swimming. It's a great workout because I spend all my energy and air trying not to drown. What a recipe for continued failure! (I'll come back to this in a moment) But I am determined, that just like running long distances that I too can tackle the water. It may never look pretty but perhaps I can practice enough to not be such a liability in the water. To give you a background story. I am unable to float. I quit swimming lessons in the fifth grade because I was t...
097 - The Critical Moment
September 25, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 8.67 MBBack in June, I never would have imagined running 13 miles. In fact, before this July, never in my life had I run more than a 5K (3.2 miles). Now, it's a light run for me! This being said. My kids actually ran their first obstacle race this past weekend, just two weeks after I went to Seattle and finished a Spartan Beast with my good friend John. I didn't know it then but by training and completing this race, I truly believed it has changed the trajectory for my family. This will imp...
095 - A Real Talk about Our New Baby (ft special guest Alisha Fanning)
September 24, 2018 09:00 - 16 minutes - 19.2 MBThere is facebook perfect and then there is real life. I've been doing my best to share the reality of our situation online because it's been showing parents that it's okay to share and talk about these frustrations. You are not alone dear parent - we totally get the WAR you step into every single day! My wife and I discussed a range of topics from sleepless nights, to sore boobs, to post-partum and anxiety attacks. Dial in because this is going to get spicy! Related Links: The Home ...
094 - 100 Days
September 21, 2018 09:00 - 8 minutes - 10.7 MBBackground I have started (on the 15th) a 100 day challenge for myself. It ends just before Christmas because I am working as hard as I possible can and I am going to totally veg out for the holidays. I can tell you this. Looking back over the past 90 days, I have done what I once thought was impossible. I bought our dream home. I ran over 10 miles (having never ran more than 3.2... ever ever); and I can see that the speed at which my results have come is because I finally embraced...
093 - Fighting for Relevancy
September 20, 2018 09:00 - 5 minutes - 7.67 MBBackground I did a video for a group of coaching clients regarding their businesses and how it's their job to stay relevant in the daily discussion in their marketplace. This is actually good advice for everyone but across your life. You need to actively work to stay relevant and an active voice in your children's lives, your spouses' life, your spiritual journey and even your body's health. Across the board, corporations are selling, celebrities are talking, politicians are working,...
092 - I am FAR from Perfect
September 19, 2018 09:00 - 7 minutes - 9.91 MBI have my faults. Every human does actually; but what defines us is what we can consistently do with our strengths. I put this podcast as my lowest priority in the past few months because I was overwhelmed with a new baby, kids, preggo wife, post-partum wife, running a business, and training for a spartan race. I'm sorry dear listener, but I fell victim to my own stories. And then I realized that I don't have to be perfect to have this podcast or to offer help. The whole point of the...

And then this baby just won't sleep very well! Listen in to hear an update! Related Links: The Home for the SuperParent Syndrome Coaching with Me?

089 - Pushing outside of comfort
June 05, 2018 13:32 - 8 minutes - 10.3 MBI was running and just could NOT make myself get into it! And then it occurred to me that this is a reflection of my life in that I just can't fall into motivation and therefore "beast mode" but have to consciously push myself out of the comfort zone. I have to create a plan. I have to ask for help sometimes, but if I'm just going thru the motions or doing what I always have done, then I'm just maintaining and not expanding!
088 - They are JUST like YOU
June 01, 2018 09:00 - 8 minutes - 10.4 MBAWWW CRAP It's true, you know it. Your kid will say something and you'll either cringe or your smile from what they did or said. Whelp, you know you're REALLY in trouble now! So, you can either let it slide or address it both internally (yes, first) AND externally. You can either anchor their "learned behavior" or course correct it. Action Steps: White Belt: Write down two examples where you can see that your child has learned from you their behavior. Label them good or "needs ...
087 - Creating Power FOR the Problem
May 31, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 8.18 MBThe Lesson SHIT will ALWAYS happen! You are not immune to disaster or stress happening. In fact, you're a stress magnet! Sorry, but true. So, now that you understand that you have already have a set level of stress and issues to handle; the question becomes... now what? So, I'm the reason for all this chaos, so what can I do about this? Main Points In my life, with four kids, one on the way, several businesses, personal and professional growth, and then an emergency happens. It...
086 - Daddy Dates
May 30, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 7.85 MBWith Special Guests! The lesson today is simple. Kids are ALWAYS watching! And what do YOU want them to remember about you when they become parents. What habits will they take with them? Action Steps White Belt: Sit down for a 10 minute visualization/meditation. 50 years from now, what do your kids and grand-kids remember about you? What traditions have you passed down, what parenting strategies have you passed down. What is their idea of marriage from your example? Attitude ab...
085 - Letting It Go
May 18, 2018 09:00 - 7 minutes - 9.53 MBBackground We're looking to buy a house and that requires a lot of paperwork. I used to handle my own day to day bookkeeping and now I have a new CPA and a new bookkeeper handling that aspect. I chose the right people, and they are good at it. But I still got anxious and worried about not being able to access my stuff and print off a report at a moment's notice. I have to instead check with my team. Worry, and wondering if I need to take my books back. Not that I don't have access or c...
084 - You Lose It Quick
May 17, 2018 09:00 - 4 minutes - 6.55 MBBackground I ran today for the first time in 2 1/2 weeks. It hurt. My joints hurt, it was hard to breath and it felt like I had started back to square one. My point is, you lose progress really quickly. My second point is that it's easier to stay up than catch up. Main Points In all areas of life, our habits create momentum. This momentum makes these new habits easier to do and when we our schedules change this moment helps us to stay on the path. Which is why it's hard to quit bad ...
083 - Know What You Sell
May 16, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 8.49 MBBusiness Lesson Today But really it applies across the board. As a spouse, parent, coworker, or business owner. Because we're constantly selling, selling ourselves and our wants. I have to sell my kids on using manners, on going to bed. I have to sell my wife on sex or what to eat or what to do. I have to sell my team on a vision or idea. The list goes on and on. But what you really need to identify is looking at what you're actually selling. Main Points You could claim to sell...
082 - The A Student
May 15, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 8.68 MBBackground I am currently reading Robert Kiyosaki's Cash-flow Quadrant and today a section really struck me right in my soul. "...fear will often stop their body from doing what it must do. That is why so many "A" students get stuck in "analysis paralysis" studying every little detail but failing to do anything..." He goes on to talk about how our system actually punishes students for making mistakes and thus why A students are just that, they make the fewest mistakes. "The problem ...
081 - Graduation
May 14, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 8.29 MBMay is a time for Mother's Day and Graduation Congratulations to all the moms and graduates out there. Main Points Time is relative of course and there is a theory that time seems to speed up as we age because we have less "firsts" and things to celebrate. In the short time that I have been alive, I am now twice the age of when I graduated but as my accomplishments are far greater than when I was a kid, I have totally celebrated less and have not honored the time, effort, and expans...
80 - What do you do when you don't give a...
May 11, 2018 09:00 - 6 minutes - 7.93 MBYes I said it - shit. You know exactly what I'm talking about, because sometimes the world just beats on us and even for a moment (or days), we just feel beat down and done. It's where we might even know what we need to do to get back on track, but we can't even answer the question, "Why? and for what purpose". Yep, I've been there. And often right when my alarm goes off. I have to literally remind myself why I am getting up and force myself to do so. I don't even feel powerful until...
079 - Confusion vs Clarity
May 10, 2018 09:00 - 5 minutes - 7.58 MBBackground Story At the kindergarten track and field day for my daughter Saffron. Which, by the way, she won first in the long jump and third in the sprint. But back to the story. During the sprint, all of these little girls were running as hard as they could but then when they got close to the ticker tape for the finish line - they had no idea what to do! So they all slowed down as they reached the finish and clumsily piled through! The Point In life, where are you setting goals...
078 - the Not So Finish Line
May 09, 2018 21:46 - 4 minutes - 5.87 MBLesson from Saffron's Track Meet.
077 - Hugs and pushing meat
May 08, 2018 17:02 - 7 minutes - 9.14 MBContent done! Better than perfect, but listen up!
076 - What do you want?
May 04, 2018 09:00 - 5 minutes - 7.34 MBBackstory While I was first working with my coaches and mentors a year and a half ago, I could not answer, "What is it that I'm working towards" or "what do I want out of life?" Instead I could only truthfully answer that I knew my life wasn't working out so hot. I want to run away from that as fast as I could and so I would hustle and push hard and fast. And wasted a shit ton of energy! Main Points It's way easier to know what you don't want. But that doesn't give you a target to p...
075 - Let's Get Busy
May 03, 2018 09:00 - 5 minutes - 6.88 MBThe Point I have a guilty pleasure of watching people actually spend more time and energy trying to be lazy and take a short cut. Like a guy that won't get out of his seat to pick something up that he dropped and so he takes 3-5 minutes straining his foot to drag it to him. Or a kid that will throw an epic fit for minutes for something that would take a few seconds. You know, we do that at all ages. We are addicted to easy. But we are also addicted to "busy". Main Points EVERYONE ...
075 - Simple Habits
May 02, 2018 09:00 - 3 minutes - 5.36 MBMain Points This is SIMPLE but not easy. How you start your day will dictate how you will finish. Start with power, end with power. Sleep in and start behind, you will end behind. Make your bed and start with gratitude and the rest of the dominos of your life will also fall but starts with a single push. Action Steps White Belt: Commit to making your bed and starting with gratitude for one week. Blue Belt: Write out your ideal morning and what would you need to have done befo...
