Good people,  In today's episode, I'm joined by the CEO and founder of The Practicing Mind Institute, author, podcaster, and mindset maven, Thomas Sterner. As a teenager, Thomas was very creative.

It took him some time, but he realized he was reacting to behaviors installed in his subconscious mind. Thomas' truth was to...

Good People,  On today’s 2019 throwback episode, I want to talk to you about the concept of My Truth versus The Truth because sometimes we hear people say, “My truth is this, or that”, but the fact is that our truth is not always the actual truth.

Good People 2018 Throwback On today’s episode, I want to talk to you about leadership. Specifically, what makes a great leader?

With all these people, there’s one thing that they all commonly embody: they are what they preach. They...
