• Dr. Martha Beck: Rewiring a Lifetime of Anxiety

  What if anxiety isn’t just a condition—what if it’s your culture? This week, I sit down with Dr. Martha Beck, and we get real about something that most of us don’t even realize we’re living with every day: anxiety. Not just the clinical kind—but the kind that’s been baked into our lives from childhood, from trauma, from a society that rewards burnout and worships productivity. I brought Martha on because I’ve been doing this work on myself. I’ve been noticing how I’ve lived in a near-constant state of stress, and the truth is, a lot of you are probably wired the same way. Martha breaks down how anxiety forms, how it’s normalized in our environment, and why it thrives in our left brain—the part obsessed with control and fear. She explains how we mistake anxiety for productivity, and how our bodies carry the toll of it for decades. But here's what blew me away: she shows us how the antidote isn’t force, but curiosity. That if you can activate that right side of the brain, the part that tracks instead of panics, the part that seeks instead of flees, you can start living from peace—and still be successful. We walked through her Perfect Day visualization technique, talked about accessing creativity through calm, and why kindness—especially toward yourself—is the true starting line for transformation. Not the kind of kindness that coddles you, but the kind that treats your anxious self like a scared horse: steady, soothing, safe. And you’ll hear what happened when I applied these tools myself. I’ve been sharper, more productive, and less exhausted. That’s real. This episode isn’t just theory—it’s a playbook. I want you to be able to say, “I am meant to live in peace.” And believe it. Because it’s not either peace or productivity—you can have both. You were never meant to grind your way to worth. You were built for joy, creativity, and ease. Let’s start giving ourselves permission to return to that. Key Takeaways: How anxiety becomes “normal” through trauma and culture The difference between fear and anxiety—and why it matters Why choosing peace doesn’t mean sacrificing success Tools like the “Perfect Day” and “Sanity Quilt” to reconnect with purpose The role of curiosity in calming anxiety and boosting creativity How to talk to yourself like a frightened horse—and why it works This one’s going to stick with you.

Visit https://growthday.com/ed. This show is sponsored by GrowthDay. Are you prepared for the world that’s already changing faster than we can explain it? In this mashup, I’m bringing together the brightest minds at the intersection of technology, ethics, and the human experience to tackle one question: What will AI do to our future—and who gets to decide? This is more than a conversation. It’s a wake-up call. I sit down with Mo Gawdat, Sal Khan, Steven Kotler, Chris Hansen, and Frank Caliendo to break down what’s really happening—and what we need to do about it. Mo Gawdat doesn’t hold back. He told me, “I am not afraid of the machines. I am afraid of the humans that are directing the machines.” We got into the real issue behind AI: not just whether it can be ethical, but whose ethics it will be taught to follow. Sal Khan shared a bold vision of a future where learning is radically redefined—but warned about the “economic dislocation” already happening to workers who resist using AI. I pushed back where it counted, especially on the value of work—not just to make money, but as a form of human expression. Steven Kotler painted the bigger picture. According to him, we’re about to experience a century of innovation—in just ten years. Flying cars, CRISPR breakthroughs, and AI writing code for other AIs? It’s already here. And yet, Chris Hansen reminded us that predators and bad actors don’t need a whole new world to exploit people—they just need a new tool. AI is now one of those tools. And yes, we even got some humor and heart from Frank Caliendo, who reminded me how much energy and truth matter—on stage, and in life. I want you to hear this: the gap between fear and opportunity is education. This episode is that education. We’re not telling you what to believe—we’re showing you what’s real, what’s coming, and what to do about it. Key Takeaways: - Mo Gawdat: “Ethics isn’t the issue—who programs the ethics is.” AI reflects our values, and that’s the risk. - Sal Khan: Jobs aren’t disappearing—people who don’t use AI are being replaced by those who do. - Steven Kotler: “What it means to be human is going to change.” We’re in a convergence of tech that will disrupt everything. - Chris Hansen: AI can empower predators faster than we can protect against them—awareness must evolve. - Frank Caliendo: Real connection still matters. Even in an AI world, energy and authenticity win. This episode isn’t just a discussion. It’s a line in the sand. The future’s already arriving—what role will you play in shaping it?

• How Emotionally Strong People Handle Conflict

  In this episode, I'm calling you out and lifting you up. We’re tackling one of the biggest challenges that silently destroys relationships, careers, and your own peace of mind—emotional immaturity. I’m sharing real talk about how anger, resentment, and emotional triggers keep you locked in a race to the bottom—and why true strength is found in staying composed, kind, and centered no matter what chaos comes your way. You’ll hear the hard truths I’ve had to learn myself, including why it's not just about the other person’s behavior but about how you choose to respond. I’ll walk you through how to recognize when you’re being pulled into someone else's emotional home of fear, anger, or anxiety—and how to stay firmly planted in your own home of peace, joy, and faith. We get into why true emotional maturity isn’t about winning arguments or proving your point—it's about refusing to let anyone else control your emotions. And I’ll give you the questions you need to ask yourself to check if your reactions are pulling you closer to your highest self—or dragging you further away. Don't spend another second living in somebody else’s emotional chaos. Your minutes are precious. Your peace is non-negotiable. Key Takeaways: Why racing to the bottom in anger or frustration only makes you the loser How to stay emotionally mature when others around you lose control The truth about emotional homes—and why you have to guard yours fiercely How to confront toxic patterns with calm strength instead of retaliation Questions to evaluate whether your reactions bring you closer to your goals and your faith You are not here to live in chaos. You are here to live in peace, in power, and in purpose. Don’t race to the bottom with people who are hurting—race to the top and stay there. Share this with someone you know who needs it, and remember: the most intelligent version of you is calm, composed, and in complete control. God bless you.

• Why Chasing an Exit Could Be Killing Your Business w/ Dave Whorton

  What If You Built a Business That Could Outlive You? I sit down today with Dave Whorton, and let me tell you—this conversation is one of the most important ones you’ll hear if you’re serious about building something meaningful. We’re living in a time where entrepreneurship looks more like a sprint to an exit than a commitment to lasting impact. Dave’s new book, Another Way: Building Companies That Last and Last and Last, challenges that broken model and reminds us: success isn't just about cashing out—it's about building something worth keeping. We break down what it really takes to create an "evergreen" company—one that’s not built to flip, but built to matter. Dave shares the 7 P’s that every sustainable business needs: Purpose, Perseverance, People First, Profits, Privately Held, Pace Growth, and Pragmatic Innovation. He hits home the idea that growth doesn’t mean chaos—done right, it compounds over time and actually gets easier, more joyful, and more impactful. You’re not racing to the exit—you’re building a legacy. One of the biggest mind shifts we talk about: you don’t have to sell your business for it to be valuable. You don't need $100M in funding to be "legit." Some of the strongest companies—Amazon, Microsoft, Apple—started with almost no venture capital compared to today’s standards. Real strength comes from a strong foundation, scrappy innovation, and a relentless commitment to people and purpose over hype. I walk away from this conversation fired up because this is real entrepreneurship. It’s the quiet work of building families, communities, and lives that stand the test of time. It’s not just about business. It's about living a life you’re proud of—and leaving something behind that’s bigger than you. Key Takeaways: Why building for the long term beats building for a quick exit every time. The 7 P’s every lasting company needs—and how to use them. How purpose-driven leadership creates stronger, happier teams. Why debt and excessive venture capital can destroy your company’s soul. The hidden financial power of compounding growth over decades. How to attract and retain talent without giving up your equity. You don’t have to follow the crowd. You can build something timeless.

• How To Grow EVERY DAY : Do The Hard Thing

Visit https://growthday.com/ed. This show is sponsored by GrowthDay. Are You Really Growing — or Just Staying Busy? The truth is, most people aren’t actually growing. They’re just repeating the same day over and over again, calling it progress. In this mashup episode, I brought together some of the most driven, focused, and self-aware people I know — Tony Robbins, Rob Dyrdek, Steve Weatherford, Brendon Burchard, Tom Bilyeu, and Christina Pazsitzky — to get brutally honest about what it really takes to grow every single day. And let me tell you, it’s not just doing more. It’s doing what matters most, consistently, with heart and with intention. I start the episode by challenging the idea that achievement alone brings fulfillment. I’ve done the grind. I’ve chased the goals. But if you're not working on your identity — that internal thermostat — you’ll keep cooling your life back down to the same old temperature. That’s the truth. You’ll hit a new level, then fall back into old habits if you don’t reset who you believe you are. That’s why I talk about blissful dissatisfaction — the art of being grateful for what you have while staying hungry for more. You’ll hear Tony Robbins talk about the difference between reading affirmations and conditioning your state through incantations. He shares the story of literally running 13.5 miles, fueled by sheer belief and a burning desire to never go back to the pain. Then Brendon Burchard breaks down the science of high performance, the exact habits and mindsets that separate the top 5% from the rest — things like deliberate energy, efforts of impact, and the power of tracking your intentions daily. Rob Dyrdek opens up about systematizing his life around his family — not the other way around — and shares wild stories of pushing past fear, including a moment he thought he might not survive. Steve Weatherford talks about chasing greatness while secretly hating himself, and what it took to finally look in the mirror and love the man staring back. Christina brings it all home with her story of forgiveness and healing after a traumatic past, and Tom Bilyeu shares how failing publicly became the best teacher of his life. Key Takeaways: - Why you keep “cooling down” after momentum, and how to permanently raise your life’s thermostat. - Tony Robbins on rewiring your state through incantations and immersive change. - Brendon Burchard on the real habits that separate top performers — and how to apply them daily. - Rob Dyrdek’s radical approach to building life around priorities, not just productivity. - Steve Weatherford on loving yourself before any achievement can matter. - Christina Pazsitzky’s moving story of choosing meaning over pain. - Tom Bilyeu’s wake-up call: talent isn’t enough — it’s earned through obsession and relentless reps. This isn’t about hype. It’s not about chasing empty success. This is about building a life you're proud of — every single day. The guests in this episode didn’t just share ideas — they shared the raw, unfiltered truth about what it costs to grow for real. And now it’s your turn. No more waiting. No more playing small. Let's go — your future is waiting.
