  • Is Growth Transactional? Can we be both our new selves and old selves at the same time? What are we unwilling to let go of? What does committing to your life look like? What parts of your story are you resistant to shed? We dive into all these questions in this episode as we explore what personal growth really looks like, and how things like reference points and personal identities can serve a purpose, but ultimately can hinder us as well.

  • Connection, Contribution and Sustainability are all on the menu for today's episode. Chef Ned Bell joins us and shares his own Three Big Things (as outlined below). As an acclaimed Executive Chef, Restauranteur, TV personality, and Sustainability expert, Chef Ned Bell takes us on a fascinating journey thru some necessary discussions about life, the restaurant business, and Ocean sustainability (including some enlightening bits about "Wild" vs "Farmed").


    Ned's Three Big Things:


    1) Don't Change Too Much: It doesn't take a monumental shift to have a BIG impact

    2) 52 and 12 rule: Once a week try preparing something sustainable, Ocean Wise. Once a month, try preparing something new, something you've never tried before

    3) Aim for a nutrient-rich plant based diet, with sustainable protein (Fish, Meat etc) as a garnish, NOT the majority of the plate.


    You can learn more about all the wonderful things Ned has going in here:

  • Imposter!! Calling out the fraud is a helpful tool. Thankfully the only imposter ends up being the part of us that bathes in self-doubt, and also likes to convince ourselves we aren't worthy of the heights when we find ourselves there. In today's episode we look at Imposter Syndrome: what it is, what the types are, and what we can do about it. Main character energy, Subliminal Man, and talent resumes all come to visit, so come join us as we try to derail this self judgment cycle.

  • What drags you out of bed on days when you just don't feel it? Finding your "why" is a helpful tool to create an underlying purpose, but it isn't always as easy at it seems. And what happens if the "why" you come with isn't some perfect shiny altruistic thing? Does that matter? In this episode we dive into it all. And we laugh. A lot. Why? Because why not :)

  • Gratitude can be one of the most powerful experiences available to us. Yet we can also gloss over it by placing it in the "should" category, and subsequently missing out on that experience. We explore all aspects of Gratitude in this episode, including why the ability to receive is so integral to Gratitude experience. We dive into the neuroscience, easy practices, and real life implications of it all. So put your thank you pants on, and join us for an episode that may just change everything for you.

  • Self Care in Relationships. What is it? How can we foster it? In this episode we look at the "shoulds", the power of rest, and how much other peoples' expectations can impact it all. Self care is more about the attitude and intent, and less about the actual activity. With this in mind we look the concept of shared space, and at the importance of filling your cup up first.

  • On today’s show, we are discussing trust, the importance of constantly asking ourselves key questions, and the stories we tell ourselves that keep us rooted in lack, or help us move into abundance. Along the way, we get into allowance, envy, increasing our capacity for discomfort, and the magic of gratitude and celebration. We talk about choosing our reactions consciously, and building a practice of giving into our lives in order to build our receiving muscles. And Dr. Stefan talks about a key question that has been important in his own life: “What contribution can I be here?”

  • In today's show, we talk all things intuition: what is it, how to use it, and the blocks we have against it. We explore the somatic aspects of "knowing", and how much our body can be leveraged to help us know what we know. We also jump into how this ties into our relationship with trust, and how a moment with a doughy dopamine hit (aka a cinnamon bun) became a massive learning experience for it all.
