I used to feel clever when I could answer any question and had strong opinions; now I feel wise when I say "I don't know." Learning to say "I don't know" and being willing and open to being wrong is a super-power.

I am so grateful and joyful to be alive! On November 18, 2022, I underwent a very complicated brain surgery to repair a life-threatening aneurysm on a cerebral artery. Because I survived, that is proof that there is still more work for me to do, more love to share, more encouragement to give, and more life to live!

We are constantly comparing things to other things we've seen or experienced previously. This often keeps us from seeing a thing exactly as it is in this moment. We judge a thing by comparing it to other things or to our preferences. Let's learn to live in this unique moment.

You are not in competition with anyone else, not even with yourself. You do not have to be better than anyone, not even better than who you were yesterday.

Many of our individual and societal goals are shortsighted. The goal of eliminating debt doesn't actually create wealth.

Have you ever tried to climb a hill carrying a heavy weight? How did you feel once you set the weight down? So free, so light! Many of us carry the heavy weight of the past along with us and it's keeping us from living in joy and freedom in this moment. Make peace with your past. Set it down!

We think about 70k thoughts per day; 90% of them are the same thoughts we thought yesterday. Most of us are living in "autopilot" mode without consciously, intentionally choosing our thoughts and behaviors. It's time to awaken, to disable autopilot mode and start living on purpose.

I think most of us take life far too seriously. We've gotten tricked into thinking in terms of right and wrong, good and bad, yours, mine, and all the other scarcity thoughts that rob us of the joy of living. I used to be that way.

As children, we loved to play games; sometimes we won, sometimes we lost, but the joy came from playing the game. As we grew, we started taking the losses personally, or we got hurt, so we stopped playing. Let's rekindle our enthusiasm for the game of life! Stay in the game!

Much of my life has been a progressive apocalypse. The word "apocalypse" actually means "to uncover or reveal." Life often teaches us to believe things that aren't true. When we discover this and learn what is true, what always was true, it can feel like the end of the world.

Not all who wander are lost. Most coaching around achieving goals is about having a laser focus so nothing distracts you from the goal. I don't teach this. Life isn't about laser focus, it's about enjoying as much as we possibly can, it's about wandering toward our goals.

We are all on a path of life, a labyrinth, not a maze. Mazes have hard blocks, wrong turns, and it's possible to get stuck and lost in a maze. A labyrinth is a continuously flowing path with no wrong turns. When we start to see life from this perspective, we can learn to trust the path and keep moving forward.

I've read a lot of books on marriage and relationships. I can honestly say The Go-Giver Marriage by John David Mann and Ana Gabriel Mann is, by far, the best. Written as a beautiful parable (with a refreshingly practical "how-to" section), the story captivated and brought me to tears of joy and inspiration. I had so much fun talking with the authors about the book and why they wrote it. Seriously, regardless of relationship status, everyone should read this book! Listen to our delightful...

Do you have a "winning" mindset? Do you play to win? I'm not talking about a "competitive" mindset. Just the opposite. Competition is about beating an opponent or being better than someone. A winning mindset is about loving what you do and enjoying the process of playing the game of life.

Many of us teach that the only thing that is really real is this present moment, not the past, nor the future. While this is true, it's not completely true. Whatever you are actively thinking about, past or future, IS real in this moment right now. So think about an awesome future and feel awesome NOW!

Osho said, "The mind is always afraid, but it's only afraid of one thing: the Heart." The mind is always talking, always distracting you from listening to the quiet, calm, stillness of your heart. In the silence, you enter the presence of the Divine, indeed, you enter into your own Divinity, into an intimacy that connects you as One.
