Timestamped Show Notes:

13:40 – I would say you could call it desensitized, or you could call it discernment and adaptation. I’m in the business of helping people become better adapted to modern stress, which basically means they’re able to maintain your center right in as conditions all around you increase in chaos. You actually drop in more deeply because you have the ability to discern. Like, is this life and death for me, or is this an opportunity for me to, in your case, share the skills that you have inherently. I’m in the same way, like I’ve been out rock climbing and watched somebody fall and dislocate a leg, and I walk over and I’m like, okay, get them stable. Then we put their leg back into position. They’re like, how did you do that?  

24:10 – That is actually stress release and recovery. So the emotion, like a person like you, I’m actually very similar in the way. I can show up in an emergency or in someone’s life that is going through chronic issues, like disease. I can show up with dozens of them around and so I’m just serving, serving, serving, serving, serving. I can stay really centered and grounded, because it’s what lights me up. This is what my nervous system, what I’ve groomed it to do.

53:50 – We teach people how to do this and teach movement. It’s called EDU Immersion, a practical spinal maintenance. Have a happy spine, calm, and I give out a free workshop on it. So you’ll learn about stress, the neurophysiology of stress, and then how to work with your system with movement. So I mentioned, whenever you stress out, you always lateralize into one hemisphere. Well, what’s beautiful about the body is that left hemisphere controls right side of the body and vice versa. So if I have a movement system that crosses my midline regularly, and what happens is it forces cross modal communication in the two hemispheres. So now those hemispheres are starting to compare data and go, wait, why are we in a stress state right now? You know based on what we’re seeing right now, there’s no bear out there. So you get to create congruence between the two hemispheres, the brain waves slow down into alpha and theta in the body to get that parasympathetic sympathetic balance. So that’s really why we have an online course for that as well, called Moving Back Into Balance. 

01:0:50 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

One key point is that your body is brilliant. Your being is brilliant, like what you’re capable of is far beyond what you could ever even imagine. So this is an invitation for you to lean into that. Lean into that by getting outside, by talking nicely to yourself and asking good questions, by valuing yourself with good choices. We’re making choices every day, all day, and one of the biggest choices, I would say, is to start to see everything that’s happened in your life as on the way, rather than in the way. Because as you make that change, and you start to reflect on this conversation we’ve had today, you start to look at these things that you’ve thought, Damn, that was in the way. If you can start to shift and ask, how is it on the way? You start to, as my friend Dr. John Demartini says, you become no longer a victim of reality, but a master of destiny. You move from being a victim to whatever is happening to you, to recognize your creative powers, your self-authorship that you get to meet every moment, and you’re filling in that content. You’re the meaning maker. So if you just own that and bring the pen back in your hand and get out of the victimhood thing, you can do incredible things. Everyone has a value that’s equally valuable to everyone else, because we’re all on a unique journey here as a soul in the human body.

23:00 – I appreciate him just helping me kind of hone my mindset, which it’s all mindset. You know, one of the things when you hear a lot of this stuff, and when I’m thinking about you guys in this room, and the people I care to spend my time around, is we’re not willing to fail. We’re like the type of people that it doesn’t matter what is thrown at me. I don’t care what the job is that I come in front of. I don’t care what the situation is. I’ll figure it out. It’s just my job. That’s what I do, and I pride myself on it, and I think that’s something that we’re losing in some of these younger kids these days. I’m a huge kid advocate, love the youth, and and putting my time and investment into them. ~ Brian Strauser

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:45– One of the biggest hurdles I had to get over was the sound of my own voice. So I recorded myself giving presentations while driving my truck, in front of a mirror, etc. I did 52 weeks of recording driving to work and I made sure I did it every week, for a year straight. Not for content creation and not for anybody else. Yes, there was good content there and I would make sure I posted on YouTube, even before I went into the office.

12:30 – As a coach, in both the mindset life coaching part of my business and the fitness part of my business, it doesn’t matter what side of the spectrum you’re on, you got to listen to your client first. 

43:30 – I work only with the lifestyle mindset coaching side of things, I don’t coach them in fitness. I coach them on their lives. We work through the victim mentality and impostor syndrome. Soft talking through the past experiences and the story work. These things take up space in us. We don’t realize they’re taking up space in us which means we can’t bring in new positive experiences. Because this something that is still holding on to us from the past, that we haven’t learned to express or let go of or deal with. It’s blocking us from moving forward. This happened to me, the reason I am more successful now than I was four years ago, is because four years ago, I had a block. I knew I had a block. 

50:00 – I am often focused on the mindset coaching and lifestyle coaching which are my passions that I do outside of the gym. You have to be ready for those conversations. I had a local business that hired me and it was a six week program where I brought them through how to structure, how to plan, and they didn’t respond well to the one the week with what I had designed. They all bottled up got really closed off. It was a big time tough room. I felt it and you could feel that in the owner too. So I pivoted and I flipped the script.

01:17:30 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

That’s probably why I came out so happy today. It’s one of the things why I shut my mind off for an hour. I focused on whether I was not flat footed or was on my toes or rotating enough. Or like how I was striking or if I was connected to every movement I did. I was listening and learning and taking criticism. It was awesome.

That’s pretty cool and more people need to experience that. That feeling to just be centered and focused that hard on anything could be lifechanging, and it doesn’t have to be a athletic endeavor. It could be art, it could be music, or it could be the freeing experience like podcasting.

03:45 – Brad has always been like a big brother to me. He has been in my wedding. He’s just been a mentor and someone that I’ve always looked up to. Just in his character, his discipline, and the way that he carries himself in all facets of his life. Including you, we’re products of personal development. It’s something that I eat, sleep, breathe, and my life is a direct reflection of the time and attention and resources that I’ve invested into my mindset. 

17:15 – We have an idea, we have a mental model, of what we aspire to be. But, you know, I think the beauty part is the process. It’s the learning, it’s the getting better.

21:55 – There are little incantations, little things that I’ve learned over the process of the last three years of mentorship with him. That has really taken me to another level. I couldn’t say that prior to working with Paul Martinelli.

30:20 – It’s controlled, you know you get better two different ways. You could just go full throttle, with with no responsibility, or you can allow the law of process to take effect and you can get a little bit better and feel a little more comfortable over time. Do it in a healthy way. I think one way is, and I’m living proof of that, is rushing things, which is more prone to bad things happening.

40:30 – The thing is, the human programming or as human beings, we get addicted to emotions, to the way that we are supposed to feel. If you don’t think you’re addicted, give me this smartphone for a week. Get your hand off of that device, take that away for a month and see how you feel.

50:00 – Let’s talk about that 12-year-old little boy inside. That’s really the voice that holds me back, it’s that inner child? I was obedient. I set out on my journey, I went to massage school, and then I’m riding a bicycle. I road eight and a half miles, every single day from Allentown to Hellertown. To go help build my family business. We grew that business 1,000% in four and a half years, even through a worldwide pandemic. I hold a citation from the US House of Representatives and the US House of Senate, I became the most influential man in Lehigh Valley Style.

01:15:45 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

What I realized after I came home is that the bicycle that I road is a metaphor for a successful, meaningful, and purposeful life. What I mean is, the first thing you have is the handlebars. Those are decisions, our decisions create our destiny, one degree to the left or to the right of my handlebars, I’m ending up in a completely different destination. So you got to make good decisions.

The next is the frame of the bicycle. That’s my mental and physical well-being, my mental and physical health. One crack on my bike frame, I’m on the side of the road watching everybody else go through life. So you’ve got to take care of your mental and physical health.

The next is your pedals. Those are our desires. The stronger my vibrational frequency of my desires, the more power I’m going to put to my pedals and the further I’m going to go in life. So what do you want?

The next is the chain. Those are my daily actions. Those have to be in alignment with my desires. It’s like me saying I want to lose weight and be financially free. If my daily actions are not in alignment, I’m not going anywhere.

Next is the gears. Successful people know when to switch gears at the appropriate time. The gear that I’m in now is in the gear that I’m in with my clients or with my family, you got to know when to switch gears. You have to have the foresight to see what’s coming down the road of life so you can get in the appropriate gear and maximize your efforts.

The next is the wheel. That’s my support system. At any given time, during that 500 mile ride, all 230 pounds of me was on one spoke. In life, you’re going to have to rely on a handful of people. So make sure you have a good strong support system around you.

The next is the tires. The front ones filled with inspiration, the back ones filled with motivation. Now on that ride, I had to check and fill my tires daily. Because if you ever tried to ride a bike on flat tires, it makes it really hard to do. So you got to find something that inspires and motivates you on a daily basis.

The next is a seat, you are going to have to support yourself. There may come a time where you’re the only person that believes in your dream, you’re gonna have to support yourself, how are you doing that? How are you talking to yourself? Nobody’s going to believe in your dreams like you believe in your dreams, You have to support yourself.

Lastly, my favorite is the brakes. Everything in the universe is subject to the law of rhythm. Sun goes up, sun comes down, tide goes out, tide comes in. Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, everything is subject to the law of rhythm. Sometimes you’re grinding up a hill. Sometimes you have got momentum and you’re coasting down on those downhills. Don’t forget to use your brakes, slow down, take in the views and enjoy the ride. We get so fixated on getting to the destination that we completely miss the entire journey. Life is so beautiful at eight miles an hour. So keep pedaling.

Co-Founders, Katie and Tyler Bramlett started WeShape with the intention of advocating for women to stop focusing on the number on the scale and instead put their energy and efforts towards a more meaningful intention such as movement, rest, and a deeper connection with self. Their entire company and product is rooted in intention, movement, community, and beliefs. They have a passion for bringing awareness to the toxic expectations placed on women in the fitness industry, as well as the often overshadowed, yet pivotal roles women play in business and entrepreneurship.

Quote: “A Disciplined Mind Leads To Happiness, And An Undisciplined Mind Leads To Suffering ~ Dalai Lama

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

1. Mindfulness Intention
2. Self-Worth
3. Feel Good Challenges every 6 weeks.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:15 – How do we give them the tools to go from unconsciously working out, like mindlessly exercising, it’s the hammering away on the treadmill, while you’re watching an episode of Oprah. Hitting the machines and not really dropping into your body or really experiencing movement. How do you actually learn how to mindfully move your body from the intention of wanting to care for your body, not from the intention of wanting to change the way you look? So you can get external validation and feel good about yourself? Right. So that’s kind of how we got to here!

10:40 – I also think that if you surround yourself with people who are all stuck in the same toxic mindset, then you end up complaining and circulating in that mindset. It’s interesting to me, one of the things that we discovered early on about community was, it is one of the greatest predictors to overall longevity. In fact, I think it was Wendy Suzuki is a neuroscientist that said that it was the number one predictor of longevity is the amount of positive connections you have with other people. 

14:30 – I feel like this is something I’ve become really aware of. It’s funny because Katie was the one who came up with this intention as the business was, how do we change people? How do we bring awareness to this toxic weight loss culture we’re stuck in, which is like, do this crash diet, do this workout, do this whatever, and you’ll lose weight and you’ll feel better about yourself. We just said it like a little bit ago, you’ll lose weight, but you won’t feel better about yourself.

23:30 – The goal is just to get people rallied up and consistent. We go over these topics of intention, movement, beliefs, community with them and really dive deep into them. It really changes a lot of people’s lives. What’s really interesting to me about these challenges, is that when people come together in a community, and one person is willing to raise their hand and share, like, Hey, I’m really struggling with this. 

34:15 – I think people struggle with that. But again, I think this comes down to that self-worth and I think where we can really differentiate ourselves as a brand is that WeShape isn’t focused on body transformation, losing weight, and all this different stuff. We’re trying to bring to someone’s attention that hey, look at all the magazines and all the internet stuff everything is basically making you feel shitty about yourself. We’re shaping a new way, we’re trying to change the way we’re approaching us. All that stuff out there is making you feel shitty so that you buy their stuff.

40:45 – The mindset work, the psychological work, that is something that we personally have to take accountability for. You have to have a personal accountability and investment yourself. 

58:00 – I want them to stop getting stuck in these toxic weight loss cycles. Stop getting stuck in these exercise programs and diets and all this crap and start learning how to appreciate themselves. Teach them to connect with themselves and show up with better intentions and lean into a community who can support them through that.

59:20 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think what I want to stand for is just showing people that it starts with their opinion of themselves. What you believe about yourself, is what you will do with your life. If you believe that you’re worthless, and you know you’re a failure, and you can’t do all of these things, then there you go. That’s the life that you’re gonna end up creating for yourself. You can believe whatever you want. So you can believe and see all of these positive things about yourself. You can keep training that belief and holding that belief as truth and fortifying that belief through your actions to build it into truth. So that will become your life. It’s just your choice what you want to believe.

09:30 – In October 2016 on an island in the Gulf of Thailand, I’m there with my business partner. I wake up to the text in capital letters, and he’s Mr. understatement, “We have $1,000 in the bank, we just just made payroll, we have $1,000 in the bank?!”

15:25 – 99% of people use self-inflicted limiting thought processes which comes down to a lack of education, basic education, about how our words influence us, for better and for worse. When I say your language, I mean internal dialogue and external dialogue. 

21:00 – Badass as hell, man. I’ve got a similar story, dude. I got a one way ticket when I flew over to Thailand in 2007. My goal was to go pro as a coach at this fasting and cleansing resort on that same island. I left behind a teaching career and that’s when I just went for it!

29:00 – It’s the beginner syndrome, all the beginner syndrome is, is the awkwardness of learning a new skill. It’s the awkwardness of being new to a scene.

36:30 – The Victim Mentality, actually defined, acquired personality that… a person tends to repeat to himself or herself, as the victim.

40:00 – Mark provides a 2nd, quicker definition, of the Victim Mentality and it’s impacts.

45:00 – Most of it comes from lack of preparation or lack of belief in your product. Then of course, there’s the identity part that we bring into everything that we do. When someone is breathing poorly in a sales conversation, and their breath is trapped in the chest, the person that is your prospect is going to pick up on that.

51:40 – Mindset defined by Enlifted

01:11:00 – Beginner syndrome, it’s the awkwardness, it’s the skill acquisition, it’s like, oh, what am I doing, and then you figure it out. Then you get better at it and then your confidence increases with your competence.

01:21:10 – Finding your purpose? No pressure everybody. Let’s unpack that “purpose”. Even though I need to find my purpose, for me, even though I fell in love on site, and thought this was cool shit and I still think it is, the whole language and word game. I did not commit to the thing until 10 years in. So here’s a good progression. explore your interests. What are you interested in? For example, what is jujitsu, I’m interested, okay, so go do it for six months, see what happens. 

01:34:39 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

Your LANGUAGE is powerfully influencing you, for better and for worse. With just a minimal amount of education, you can change the way you’ve seen yourself. You can change the way you see your place in the world, you can change the way that you interact with other people.

Most importantly, we didn’t talk about this as much as I normally talk about it on podcasts, because we’re known as the language people, and that’s nice, it’s great. It’s great to be known for something, we might as well be known as the language and the breathing people. Push comes to shove, gun to head, it’s about the BREATH. You can learn to use your words in more constructive, dare I say and I do dare say, elegant ways. Unlock your breathing because guess what? It’s hard to enjoy being you when your breath is trapped in your chest. That’s where most people’s breath is trapped, it’s trapped in their chest.

A little fun fact. The second and third most commonly purchased over the counter medications are indigestion medication, and constipation medication. In my personal professional opinion, it’s because people’s breath is trapped in their chest.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

05:00 – I got a couple of buddies of mine that just get shit done. I move hard and fast. These guys are like 10x. That’s one of the things I look forward to and look for when I’m interacting with people. Looking at people, asking what are they doing, how are they operating, how are they getting it done? And what can I steal from them and implement into my life so I can make some of that reality for me.

15:30 – It also helps improve the positivity that comes into your own world. We all have a choice as far as what we can input into our brains, right? We choose what we can read, we choose what we watch on TV, if we watch TV at all. One of the big shifts for me, was actually making the conscious decision to turn things off like the news. Turn things off like the news and all of a sudden, my mindset is better. I’m not a grumpy fuck all the time.

24:00 – I’m reading this book right now, The Buddha And The Badass by Vishen Lakhiani, this guy owns a really successful company called Mind Body.

32:45 – 100% So I did it backwards. And I was just in the gym and didn’t hear anything else. Right? Sometimes not the smartest dude in the room. So I was 283 pounds. Got to work on me was 75 hard work. By the time I wrapped it up and was done. I was like, 250 pounds in like, looking lean.

44:45 – I have two wellness doctors that I deal with, one’s a chiro and one’s an actual MD. The MD is like I don’t really give a shit what those of my colleagues here think in the US. He actually trained a lot in Europe and everything that he’s told me, Europe is 10 years advanced of where we are at with most things. So I got both of these guys doing a bunch of things and they’re both high performance, former athletes who have become doctors and are hard charging very successful entrepreneurs. They are not just in medical practices, but a lot of other ventures that they’ve gone on with. They understand the game, they understand how entrepreneurs move and operate.

58:30 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

Every one of our social media posts that we finish on that small steps forward daily, like literally, that’s how I live my life. You know, a lot of people want to go back to baseball, for instance, right? So do people want to come to the plate and they want to smash that home run? Or get the Grand Slam and knock it out of the park? In reality, it happens every so often, but not so much. I’d rather go there and hit base base hits, right, hit a ground ball, and get on base every time.

Any of the big wins that I’ve had in my life have been a very gradual build up of small wins over a long period of time that then transition over. So yeah, this whole theory of oh wow, he’s an overnight success. Yeah, 22 – 23 years of hard work to become an overnight success.

00:30 – Introduction

08:05 – You can’t outwork a bad diet is something we discuss all the time, and just taking the time to understand what parts that are going to look at, you know what part of that picture we need to address. We tend to look at it through running a body like a business, which is really a discussion we have quite a lot because generally the people we talked to in that higher corporate space or business owner spaces.

16:00 – I’ve always joked, I’m working with the people that need it, but don’t want it, I’m always trying to find a way to make sure that we work with courage of men and and business owners in that space . They need to look after their health, but they’re still looking at as a conflicting interest from work.

22:15 – I was basically on the brink of the professional bodybuilding world. So really, that scene, getting to 100 kilos, basically 220 pounds, that three or four % body fat, you are looking your best and feeling your worst at that moment.

27:00 – That’s the big part of having that conversation around the stress and realizing that it’s really an alignment of the two. I’ve said it a couple of times, it is trying to make sure that you know a lot of these guys, so they can resonate with being an athlete at some point in their life, they became competitive, they push themselves in some way. So they understand what that looks like from a physical threshold, they very rarely understand that they’re going through the same mental athleticism in that current role, the amount of responsibility, the amount of mental hurdles that are happening at 3am, the lack of time to actually stop and recuperate.

35:30 – A mentor said to me the other day, and it stuck with me really well, if I gave the level of stress that I just tack on over a day to day basis today, to me 10 years ago, it would have crippled me. I just didn’t have that mental muscle built up. So understanding how many more things you’re tackling in that day, I think it’s such a drastic part of it. That understanding that was pretty big.

40:00 – It’s understanding what you’re eating with when you’re eating, which is where this picture comes in really nicely. We’re looking at integration of physical, digestive, and psychological, understanding that you can’t separate these three. We’re in this world, we’re constantly trying to say, well, here’s the perfect nutrition plan, or here’s the perfect training plan or whatever.

52:15 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

For me, I think one of the things I learned really early on that’s made a huge difference in how I approach all of this was, when I was rowing in high school, it was something that you knew that you were doing more before 9am than everyone else was doing in their day, and you kind of had that as a bit of a chip on your shoulder, going into your day. But what I noticed is I was falling asleep in class and I was you know, grades are impacted. And I was trying to play the poor me mentality, right? Like, now I’m doing rowing. So you know, I need to have special treatment. And I can’t remember who it was at the time. But he said, You do realize it’s something you chose to do. Right. And I think just anchoring that and realizing that this is something you get to do not something you have to do, right. And I think many of us are just the the dog lying on the nail, right? It’s not painful enough for us to move. So we’re just moaning about it. And I think taking the time to just be aware of that space is a huge part of just creating ownership around your situation. Right? If you’re talking about situations and circumstances you’re giving power to it, if you truly want to take ownership of your life and take the time for the parts of it that are less than optimal. Then look at it through that lens you get to you don’t have to but if you want to sit there and be that the person the dog lying on the nail, that’s ultimately what’s happening and you just need to stop lying to yourself. I think it’s a big part of it is just intentionality.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:25 – I know a lot of people overthink it, and then because they overthink it, they end up really stalled with paralysis by analysis. So I’ve got to do this, go do that, I haven’t got time for this. I’m gonna, you know, start next month and I think that’s it is very simple and the thing that I think people want to do before anything, and I’ve been doing it since I was a junior bodybuilder, sort of 16-17 years old and I’ve been I’m 52 now. So I’ve been doing it for all my life pretty consistently, I’m a little bit of an anomaly. But I think for the average person that hasn’t done that consistently for years and years and years, then really, the most important thing that you need to focus on is creating a habit, where you’re gonna fit some kind of activity, or movement into your life. I’ve not actually met any people that have not been able to create a habit of cleaning their teeth, at least in the morning, and when they get up and before they go to bed in an evening.

20:30 – For whatever reason, everybody is obsessed, relationships break down for it, everything is really driven about people’s desire for money, what they think money is going to give them.

31:00 – We’ve got a pretty decent process and we’re predominantly business to business. So we work with a lot of gyms trainers, we we have a small part which is direct to consumer, but predominantly, it’s going into clubs. Most of that gives us the ability to plan out a little bit further than people who kind of want to just purchase things immediately.

35:00 – I never thought I’d ever get into unofficially designing my own space. I mean, to be fair, actually, I love the fact you guys actually do design services, which is super cool.

40:00 – You got yoga combined with spinning, boxing, etc. So you got to think of how you’re going to really differentiate yourself. There’s a lot of ways that you can do that, obviously. But a lot of people react to the simple things, I used to be a boxer, and I like boxing, and I know some friends do too, etc. So I’m going to open a boxing gym but then what.

48:22 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I’ll just remind them of what I said at the beginning. I suppose you think that there’ll be a time where you’ll figure out how to make health and fitness important in your life. I’ve interviewed probably two or three-hundred very successful people in all areas, not just fitness, but in many different areas in business and I think consistently the one thing that that really separates those from anyone else is just finding where that fits into your life. But putting it before everything else in your hierarchy of things to do,  stick fitness at the top. I think if you can make that a habit then you’ll find that dealing with all the other stuff that life throws at you on a regular basis including preventing yourself from getting totally destroyed from whatever pandemic happens and everything else that is out there, you won’t go far wrong.

52:30 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think that what you’re telling people is the right message. You are responsible for your own condition, that 98%, but 100%. So you see people from all levels of society, from all areas of the world, and some people decide that I can make my life because I decided to do it. Some people decide that I’m a victim, and everyone else is responsible for my condition. If you want to be happy, the second one doesn’t work. You know, hard work and keeping your moral code in play, surrounding yourself with good people, and having a purpose for your life, whatever it is. But it ought to involve helping someone else or somebody else.

If you can live toward that end, you can enjoy the time that you have here and feel like for whatever purpose you were put here, that you did it. I think that the image I always have for myself, is I’ve been informed that at 120 years old, I have one hour to go and I am able to look back and reflect on my life. Did I do what I did and did I accomplish what I set out to do? Also, were other people glad that I was here and I did it. If you can answer those questions, there is a piece for yourself, no matter what’s coming, you’re going to be okay. If you’re at that and you can assess that right now, then you create your own tomorrow so that you can decide. You can decide if I could be a little bit better here, I could have done that, or I’ve always wanted to do that.

Tomorrow, you can decide to do that. Write it down in your goal book and look at it every morning and figure out if I want to end up here and if I’m here now. What are the steps to get there, maybe I need more education, maybe I need more influence in this area, maybe I need to meet new people. Whatever it is, you have the power to do it. You just have to decide and if you’ve been in a marathon or an Ironman or you’ve been running work in an 80-hour week, you’ve got what it takes to move your butt from where it is to where you want to go. So you might as well do it. Because you know, you’re here and that’s what life’s about. You just make it into what you want.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:30 – You have to decide right now. What stress can you take on and what is going to be more fruitful for you. Hold on to your personal life and your sanity right now or if expanding and adding to your business and money right now is more important. You have to decide that because you can put too much stress on your time and on yourself during these times

20:30 – You have got to realize that this economy was worse than this, but not acutely that this is way worse than a way it was? Oh, but it’s not going to be that way long term. In other words, a five-year effect. I believe that here in the next 30 days, I think you’re gonna see this country just start roaring again. That’s what I believe anyway, I don’t think it’s going to be maybe the hardest and shortest hit to the economy that we’ve ever seen.

31:00 – If we the people state, hey, we’re not gonna let you take our liberties away. You know, we’re not going to take up some unsubstantiated evidence and let it ruin our lives in our economy. We’ve got to get outside, we’ve got to remain healthy. We’ve got to remain socially healthy too. We can’t let our relationships fall apart. We’ve got to have friends, we got to maintain a social fabric.

40:00 – That’s good wisdom for all. You know, Jesus said, don’t cast your pearls among the swine. That means, don’t give people pearls of wisdom unless they ask for it. That’s what it is.

52:30 – I believe that I help people more than financial planners do, tenfold? Yeah, you come to me and you sell your business for three, four, or five million. I can convert your life to being a multi-multi-millionaire and change your lifestyle in 10 different ways. I mean, I’ve seen people have small businesses that are only making a couple hundred grand a year and I can get them into businesses that make millions a year.

56:00 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I would always try to tell people this, don’t let the world tell you what to do. Make sure that you are telling the world what you’re going to do. You know that this world somehow is designed in all meaning all well. Our parents do it, our teachers do it, our professors do it. People at our church do it. People on our sports teams do it, they’re always telling you what you should do. It’s their way, or it’s a way or it’s whatever and I just tell people to make sure it’s you deciding what you want to do.

That would be my lasting legacy of advice. That’s what really grabs me about this whole COVID thing, is how easily everybody just was told what to do and everybody just followed it based on really, really insufficient evidence. So I would say that’s my two cents. Make sure it’s you doing what you want to do. Don’t refuse good advice but be led by your own compass. Otherwise, you’re going to be led by 30 other compasses, your own compass needle is going to be spinning all the time, and you’re not going anywhere. You have got to follow your true north and it’s easier said it’s talking in bumper stickers, but it is so profound if you can just follow your own compass. That’s a way to live a deliberate life, live intentionally by the way of your own being, rather than being swayed by several other faulty accomplices along the way

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:10 – Essentially, that moment between stimulus, the trigger, and the response gives us so much information. It’s that space between stimulus and response. It is how we naturally have a tendency to react unconsciously which is the code of all of our primary wounding that didn’t start with us and it didn’t even start with our parents. It’s been going on from generation to generation.

20:15 – I don’t think everybody can think or talk about what you and I are talking about right now. Yes, but it’s okay because I was there one time to where I couldn’t talk about this. I had to learn these things and then I had to test these things. I had to then realize that first of all, I said I would never get married too So you’re kind of energy, you’re what they are called an Avoidant Attachment Style, which is the same as me, man, my heart was all locked up.

30:00 – I have the freedom to make everything happen in my current state. I can actually attest to this because I’ve said I mentioned stuff like this on other shows, because that’s part of the freedom, right? I don’t care what the hell I say on my show these days because I love that freedom of not worrying about what anybody else thinks. My vulnerability is wide open and I’ve had people appreciate that I actually am this honest and transparent. There is true power in transparency.

40:00 – So we have to unfuck your nervous system. It starts with that, and it goes into healing your codependent patterns. Even like in your euthanize case, Scott, where we were in that state of insecure avoidance. There’s also the other type, which is the insecure kind of anxious attached. So to heal those wounds I discovered that I was going to be a dad. Then I put a ring on it, and we just decided to get married, we’re going to have a baby. All of this is so that we can create a community of people around the world who are taking responsibility for using this time to heal their past attachment wounds. I created a website, a Facebook group called “Trigger Proof: Regulate Stress & Strengthen Immunity during a Crisis” to help show people how to regulate stress and strengthen immunity during a crisis. I give transmissions every day.

50:00 – We have a huge spike in divorces and breakups are going through the roof. Why? Because we can’t stop and nobody has been dealing with their shit. We can’t bullshit any longer. The ability to take a conflict, let’s say you and I are friends, and we get into a disagreement. Normally, I’ll be like, Fuck you, I’m out of here. Like, I don’t want to hear from you. Versus, okay, well this is what I came up for me, Scott, when this happened, and to take that conflict between us and create a deeper bond out of it, a deeper relationship out of it. Those two skills, if you can learn that, and master that and invest in the growth in the learning of that, not only will you come through the COVID pandemics, like a chain war gliding through, but throughout your entire life, the quality of every relationship, which is what makes your life experience so worth it will completely transform.

58:47 – Final Words

Our Final RAP of the Show:

I’m gonna leave you with a little rap that I wrote. Ah, there we go. Okay. All right. When they tell you let it go, you can try with all your might. The problems that your nervous system still in fight or flight, the stress ain’t gone. It’s still in plain sight. You got to find a way to turn around the fight. My name is Dr. Nima adjusting spines is my game. Now I’m spitting lyrics to me. It’s all the same. correcting your structure, improving what you eat, dissolving your stress by adjusting your beliefs. I wasn’t born a rapper but I’m a rapper at heart. It connects me to my young and my playful part. I’m in my mid-40s Is that too late to start what I’m lacking in my rap technique I make up for with heart. The dancing the rhymes, healing spines, and minds combining everything you love makes you feel fine. So don’t hold back. If there’s a song you need to sing and dance like you don’t care who’s watching.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

08:45 – Yoga is really beneficial if it’s done very actively as well. But this is the other side of yoga, if you talk about introspection, that’s exactly where this Slow Yoga fits. It’s a kind of going inward to look more inside your internal space to let the body breathe and to express itself.

14:30 – That guilt of I need to be doing more because there’s always more to be done. Because your job never ends. They’ll say there’s always something to do. At times it is a self-imposed feeling of actually I should be doing something.

20:00 – It is about developing that self-awareness to realize, how am I feeling at any given point, and then allowing yourself some time to walk around the house, walk around kind of clear the air. Somehow go for a walk if you can, if it’s your allotted daily walk, then go right now.

30:00 – Relating to pescatarian or in Su’s case vegetarian… So it’s cool. I respect it. I tell people that listen, if you find something that works with your biology, your gut health, and you live a healthy, sustainable high energy life, then great!

40:00 – Sometimes you have to go and not get so caught up with all of that, because life doesn’t work like that. So it’s kind of naming it as well to everybody knows this is a transition period, you know, things might look a bit different for now. Then we have to come together and reconnect. Same with clients. If we’re online, and we never used to be online, maybe now we need to reconnect on what’s okay, what’s not okay.

50:00 – Canceling of our prior course that I run with my husband, notifying everyone that they’re all off while they’ve all been up for it, that was hard. But they’ve all got on board and the new course that I’ve just finished, that was for a college that I’m not working for anymore. A couple of those really strong students did really struggle, so that was harder. That was definitely harder because the lesson isn’t for us all to just meet up, it’s also how to meet yourself, where you meet yourself, and then try to come out with what you’re familiar with, your comfort zones.

59:59 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Know that you have worth and that you are worth it. Basically, you’re worth having a life, you’re worthy of having a life that is lived on your terms, you’re worthy of being you, the real you. Do not let anybody sway you differently or persuade you that you’re not worth it. Because you are!

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

10:00 – I found myself having to deal with the fallout of that alone. Then as it came out that he was a compulsive liar and all this other nonsense, I actually ended up miscarrying the baby. So then that was like a whole new emotional depth that I hit. There was a point where I considered ending it all, I was literally seconds away from stepping out in front of a taxi to just because it was the only way I could think of to end my pain.

20:00 – I have people whose parents gave them everything growing up, except their time. People who came from nothing, they got plenty of time but gained negative money beliefs. So we all have challenges that we have to face. They show up differently from one another and I think as a society we need to stop judging each other. Whether you were from the good side of the tracks or you were from the bad side of the tracks or you’re this religion or your this political affiliation. When we strip it all away, we all have the same funnel, mental challenges, and stresses with fears that we have to overcome if we choose to do the work.

30:00 – So some of the things that I like to recommend to people like if they’re not able to work with a coach, such as myself, is to actually go through the process of offloading.

40:00 – Ultimately, pain is our greatest catalyst for change. Sometimes it takes the painful moments, for me, it was more so the miscarriage for me that triggered it but also the infinite possibility with my ex to say, you know what, I don’t want this type of relationship.

50:00 – So maybe the virtual thing is the way to go. The Limitless League is probably the one that most people join.

01:01:40 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

We are all here for a reason. I think that the most important part of a self-development and self-healing journey is figuring out what that reason is. It’s going to be a little bit different than your why. I look at it as what is the legacy or what is your purpose in life. Because that gives meaning to everything else that you do. It makes decisions easier to make. It makes it easier to get out of bed in the morning. It makes Monday mornings more fun to look forward to. If life was a road trip, what is your ultimate destination? Like when you are on your deathbed, where do you want to have arrived? Because that’s going to give intention and meaning along with energy and light to everything that you do.

00:30: Introduction

10:00: How tough are we really? You know, when a mosquito bites you, it hurts. You know, when somebody pinches you, it hurts. You know, it’s very easy to cut yourself. We’re actually delicate creatures.

20:00: You got to physically survive, you have to understand how the world works and how to cheat other people better than you how you get cheated. All of the skills we learn for managing our physical existence on the planet, you’re building up your senses.

30:00: You have the possibility to change your program, and that deep place of peace, love, joy, contentment, and wholeness. That place has never been affected by what affected your body, your mind, and your emotions.

40:00: So you can’t be in your head in order to be fully present experientially, in all of your being and your surroundings. When you’re fully present in all of your being and your surroundings, figuring out what to do when things happen. It’s not complicated. Because you’re doing it, you’re filled with joy, you’re filled with love, you care for life, whatever needs caring for whatever needs uplifting, whatever needs to be protected and saved.

49:00: Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

You get this gift and if you don’t unwrap this gift, you don’t open it up and really get what you’ve been given, it’s a wasted gift because nobody else can enjoy it for it. So this should be to me, the most normal, the most rewarding thing a human being can do in their life. I just say make time for it. Make time for you, make time for all kinds of crazy shit. Make time for this. Make time for yourself, make time for how amazing it is to be you!

00:30: Introduction

10:00: Chapter four is all about mindset. In fact, that’s the title of the chapter, mindset matters. The mind is a powerful thing.

20:30: Even the science behind eating breakfast, one of the things I had to really force myself to do is the first thing I did was I even put a refrigerator in my bedroom. It’s stocked with my protein drinks, which only have one gram of sugar and 30 grams of protein.

30:30: When I got home from the hospital after having gastric bypass, I literally started looking at what I could eat versus what I used to eat. I would put a plate next to another plate and I would put what my old portion used to look like. With my new portion I thought, wow, Portion Your Plate, that’s kind of what I’m doing.

40:50: You need to have dinner with Condoleezza Rice. Oh my god she is inspirational. I spent probably five minutes with her. She had to be alone for 12 minutes, believe it or not, but I spent about five minutes with her. She told me something that I will never forget and that was the confidence you exude. In a room, no matter who is in that room, you may not be the most important person in the room. But you better act like you’re the most important person and don’t ever let anybody treat you any less than that. She said, putting on the confidence that you need to walk into a room is like putting on a jacket, you got to put it on. When you walk into a room with people, you stare at them straight in the face and you shake their hand, and you don’t ever act as if you’re less than the most important in the room.

50:00: Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

If there’s one thing that I can do or if there’s one thing that I can say that will make somebody else’s life any better Scott and if my book just inspires one person to get after it and lose some weight, I will feel like I’ve done my job. The reality is that you can see my before and after picture there before I had 160 pounds in my after. I want to be able to impact just one person and if I can impact just one person, the whole book was worth me writing it. I never ever had a plan or a dream to write a book. I feel like this message is so important in the United States especially because there are some people who are suffering from morbid obesity.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

• [00:30] Introduction
• [01:45] Endorsed by Dr. Christiane Northrup
• [10:00] So rather than focus on what someone else is doing or not doing, let me show up more for my life. One of the first things I did is just affirm, I show up for my life. Actually giving yourself a little bit of credit is important. I think some of us who have done some of the self-focused, self-development work, maybe forget that we actually have put more focus on that. We forget to reward ourselves for that.
• [21:30] It’s a tool, mindset runs strongly throughout the book. I put the book on Amazon and I got a bunch of reviews back. As I was reading through the reviews, I learned more about what the book was about, or how it affected people. There was a common thread of how they felt like the author was holding my hand and leading me through the practices, and it was easily digestible.
• [33:00] This is free and you can call it like a preamp to the book, but it’s something that you can digest immediately. 12 practices, they are not all about food, a handful of them are and they’re fun. They’re out of the box and these are ways that you can get started ASAP.
• [41:30] You get to do this for the rest of your life. That’s the path that you want to go down and there are lots of GI digestive issues from that metformin. That’s the biggest complaint.
• [49:46] Final Words

Final Words:

Our thoughts and our beliefs invoke our actions. Our actions are what create results. So look at the results you have, look at the results you don’t have and then backtrack to your actions, what thoughts and what beliefs created those actions or left you stagnant? This is where all work, all practices begin. It’s right here and it’s not an intellectual concept. It’s a daily practice. We can think of it in terms of affirmations.

Final Words:

If I have any parting messages for anyone to carry on from this theme of what we’ve been talking about is that every single thing that happens to you on the daily, within the minute, within the seconds, it’s unfolding the way that it is supposed to unfold. There’s no other way that you can look at it no matter what way you try and spin it. It is supposed to be the way that it is supposed to be. When you can become aware of that and actually sit with that and reflect on that, you’re going to move forward faster than you’ve ever moved forward before. It’s just hands down because there’s no other way to look at it.

• [spp-timestamp time=”00:30″] Introduction
• [spp-timestamp time=”11:00″] I like to dump like 20 gallons of petrol on this the sort of person I am. I want to dump some petrol on this, but I don’t want it to blow up and then dissolve. I need to blow it up to create that massive amount of impact, and then keep the fire burning at a higher level. The intensity is key.
• [spp-timestamp time=”21:00″] I’m not looking for collateral damage, I’m looking at weighing up the scenarios. I’m a massive advocate and I push for this fast growth. I feel like number one, life’s too short, we should be doing things as fast as we possibly can. But fast doesn’t mean you need to go fast and loose. Doesn’t mean you go fast and loose and create a wake of destruction. I create just enough destruction behind me.
• [spp-timestamp time=”30:00″] So I’m in a sweat lodge and there was about 10 of us. There’s 10 of us sitting in this teepee. Pitch Black, couldn’t see absolutely a thing. It was just crazy. It was cold outside, let’s call it 15 degrees Celsius.
• [spp-timestamp time=”41:00″] People can see life is just a game of snakes and ladders. Right? It gives you massive levels of excitement because you don’t have to go through every block on the board.
• [spp-timestamp time=”50:00″] It’s not always bells and whistles, I was in a position where I had neglected my own fitness and health in the quest of just going all in on this growing a business right. Which a lot of people are guilty of. We think oh, no, man, I just gotta cut out all the distractions, I just got to go all in. I’m building a multimillion-dollar Empire.

MMA Fighter Turned Trainer, Coach, and Mindset Buff, Welcome Clifford Starks:

I graduated in Kinesiology in 2005 and became a personal trainer. I also became a professional fighter in 2009-2017. It has always been more than just transforming the body though, the mind and spirit play key factors to one’s success. Which I definitely learned through my journey as a fighter and a coach. I have been honored to be given the opportunity to work with many clients on their mind, body, and spirit. Helping other’s live happier more fulfilled lives.

Quote: The opportunities are in the obstacles. – Clifford Starks

I realized just how important the mind was in the process of accomplishing any real success. I became extremely fascinated with psychology also had my personal life experience to pull from as well. I am always learning and growing. I love the saying if knowledge was all it took everyone would have 6 packs and be Millionaires. Knowledge is good to have, but applied knowledge is better, so I continue to take action. To grow as a person and a leader is the same as health, you never stop.

Final Words:

What it all comes down to is that there’s greatness in you. Simply put, sometimes you have to put in the energy to really see it there. Sometimes, you have difficult times, and all of those difficult times, all of those hard pressure moments, are all life lessons. It’s all part of the story that you’re going to be able to tell somebody at the end of the day. So make it your best one and make it a great one. Go all in on your story. Because no one else is going to have yours.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

• [spp-timestamp time=”00:30″] Introduction
• [spp-timestamp time=”10:00″] In order to crush the bad, we have to look it directly in the face. With that being said, it is important to build a solid base and your solid base are the people you do hang around with. That’s the reset button that will teach you to go right into your default. I can hang out with five people who are in crappy situations who are down. I feel so strong in my abilities, I think so strong in my belief in self, that I could bring them up.
• [spp-timestamp time=”20:00″] My first thing is I love them. I empathize and I love because the one thing I’ve seen is people will fight for what they love. You know, I swear, everyone that’s gone through a process, it’s because someone they loved, they’ve either disappointed or they didn’t.
• [spp-timestamp time=”32:00″] I say the opportunities are in the obstacles. There are going to be obstacles in life, that’s just the way it goes. There is no perfect road and you have to live on an imperfect road.
• [spp-timestamp time=”40:00″] It all starts with the internal. So it’s not to say that you don’t feel things, it’s not to say that negative comments don’t hurt. It is to say you get to choose how you’re going to perceive it. You get to choose how you move forward.
• [spp-timestamp time=”53:00″] So when I coach people, I have a really high percentage of people who are successful. It really does start with love. It starts with that because when you love them, it gives them permission to love themselves. There are times when it’s hard for people to love themselves because they’re either shamed or they feel like they can’t do it. They feel like failures and they don’t love themselves enough.

Today’s Episode is a Part II from Dr. Megan Cannon’s episode 261. We dig deeper into the Endurance Psychology Mindset, the Iron Cowboy, the Free Solo documentary, and more:

Megan has been working with many school sports teams on mindset preparation. Today we dig into the swimming team(s) and much more. She talks to our audience regularly, about many high-value topics such as health, fitness, mindset, and Sports Psychology. Specializing as a Sports Psychologist, Megan brings a wealth of mindset psychology and a whole lot more to our show. Listen in while we catch up with Dr. Megan Cannon Ph.D.!

Quote: He who has their why to live for can bear almost any how!

– James Lawrence aka The Iron Cowboy

Today’s shorter podcast is a Part II, following our newer short form with Dr. Megan Cannon. She’s gotten busier, as have I, so we now are recording back to back episodes to be paired off of each other. Our new mindset pump format is trying to stay around 30 minutes or less. Let’s see how you, the listeners, like the performance and knowledge we can cram into these newer 30-minute episodes!

Top 3 Hot Points:

1. Endurance Mindset Psychology
2. The Power of Your Why
3. Powerful Mindset Shifts

[spp-tweet tweet=”He who has their WHY to live for can bear almost any how! @ironcowboyjames  You Too Can LIVETHEFUEL! #ironcowboy @drmegancannon “]

Final Words:

I don’t think we can beat anything outside of the iron cowboys quote of “He who has their why to live for can bear almost any how”. That, I think encompasses not only the pushing through the pain, the power of the mind, the mental preparation and just the power of giving that attention to mindset and that preparation. That component of things whether it’s pushing through a big business project, making a big decision, or pushing through pain at a race or in a practice. If you have identified why and “what am I doing this for”, you really can withstand so much more. It’s just the power of that mind motivation.

Helping Companies and Individuals Tune In To

Lifter Leadership:

From TEDx Hong Kong to his home in southern California, Paresh Shah loves to

help others see the light of Lifter Leadership. Lifters can be anyone from the receptionist that brightens everyone’s day, to the call center rep who knows exactly how to listen and make an angry customer a raving fan, to senior executives and CEOs who understand that by aligning purpose with profit and consciousness, they can create 10 times the performance relative to peers, according to the Harvard Business Review.

Lifter Leadership is what organizations have been waiting for to motivate today’s unengaged worker, innovate to solve some of our biggest problems, avoid being disrupted and serve a demanding set of customers and workers with high standards for integrity, authenticity, and value for all humans on the planet.

Paresh is the Lifter behind this movement.

Top 3 Hot Points:

1. What is a lifter?
2. How to become a lifter?
3. Are you born a lifter?

[spp-tweet tweet=”Become a Lifter! Join The Lifter Academy on this #BusinessPodcast @pareshLA “]

Final Words:

Are you going to be the one to uplift people like Scott did or brings people down complains, shames in today’s society? There’s a lot of shaming going on and it’s basically your choice in every moment, every moment, and every moment. So go deep on that or be shallow about it. It’s your choice.

• [spp-timestamp time=”10:00″] I started running around to all kinds of spiritual things for two years, I became like a monk. I’ve been married for 30 years.

The post 260: Your Mindset Wiring and Become a Lifter! appeared first on LIVETHEFUEL.

Today We Discuss Injury Recovery and Our Athlete Mindset with Dr. Megan:

Today we dig into the Injury Recovery Mindset necessary for the athlete, along as for the everyday man/woman. We also tie this to Scott’s four-legged best friend, son, and pup, Calvin The Coonhound. Calvin has recently undergone an amputation surgery to save him from leg pain, cancer, and more.

Dr. Megan Cannon is a sport psychologist whose mission is assisting athletes in reaching their peak potential both on and off the field. She is a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in Sport Psychology. She received her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Nova Southeastern University in 2013, after earning a Bachelors Degree in Psychology from Wilkes University. She completed her pre-doctoral internship and post-doctoral training at Pacific Clinics, a community mental health agency in Southern California.

While at Nova Southeastern University, Dr. Megan had the opportunity to work in the Sport Psychology Program within the university’s Sports Medicine Clinic. Dr. Megan gained experience providing performance coaching and individual therapy to college student athletes, along with completing presentations and team-building activities with collegiate, high school, and youth club teams. Dr. Megan also administered the Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT 2.0) program to assess athletes’ baseline and post-concussive cognitive functioning and assisted in establishing return-to-play decisions.

Dr. Megan currently works with athletes at varying levels in their career. She has worked with individual athletes and teams at schools such as Bucknell University, Duquense University, Lafayette College, Lehigh University, New Jersey Institute of Technology, Old Dominion University, University of Massachusetts, University of Pittsburgh, and more. Additionally, she has worked with athletes who have competed in the IronMan Triathlon and CrossFit Games.

Dr. Megan has appeared on ESPN’s SportsCenter multiple times as an expert on sport psychology. She is a regular co-host on the LIVETHEFUEL Podcast and has made guest appearances on the Heads ‘N Tales Podcast, Brotherly Love Sports Podcast, and LionHeart Radio Podcast.

Dr. Megan delivers keynote speeches at conferences, universities, and high schools on sport psychology and mental health concepts and skills. Additionally, she consults with NCAA athletic departments, coaches, and university counseling centers to optimize and establish resources to enhance the mental health of student athletes. Dr. Megan is licensed in California and Pennsylvania, and is a member of the American Psychological Association Division 47: Society for Sport, Exercise & Performance Psychology.

Dr. Megan grew up competing in swimming, softball, and basketball. She was a member of the 4-time district winning women’s swim team at Allentown (PA) Central Catholic High School and competed at the state level. Along with performing on the field and in the pool, Dr. Cannon performed and competed on stage. She began training in ballet, jazz, and tap at the age of three and continued throughout college, where she minored in dance and was a member of the university’s dance team.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

• [spp-timestamp time=”00:30″] Introduction
• [spp-timestamp time=”00:56″] The struggle is real, and the entrepreneurial spirit people.
• [spp-timestamp time=”01:35″] Shout out to rob a SYR CrossFit.
• [spp-timestamp time=”01:54″] Scott’s four-legged family which is becoming a three legged family member. So shout out to Calvin The Coonhound in surgery recovery today. He finished his surgery last night, has become a tripod so I wasn’t sure what your thoughts were around that because we’re going to kind of tie this into the show here about injury and athletic recovery.
• [spp-timestamp time=”03:00″] Shoutout to Penn Ridge Veterinary Hospital because that’s the ones who are helping save Calvin’s life. So quick backstory. Calvin is our English Red Tick Coonhound and he’s 10 years old. In June he started getting a limp and we were surprised because we actually she made me stop taking him mountain biking with me.
• [spp-timestamp time=”04:45″] Fast forward the lab work we find out is Cancer that ate away at the cartilage in his elbow. That’s why he was in so much pain. We did all the lab work we figured out okay the cancer is not spreading did not metastasize. We’d have to take the leg off because he’s in so much pain. We took the entire right leg off, the shoulder, scapula, everything.
• [spp-timestamp time=”07:20″] We have that executive functioning component to our thought where we’re able to have that sequential reasoning and abstract thinking. If there was an injury that was to the extent of losing a limb or something, that impactful, we can think ahead, know what our lives are going to be like.
• [spp-timestamp time=”08:01″] There’s also that psychological process of rehab. We remember how strong we used to be, or how it used to be before, but now, we’re starting here.
• [spp-timestamp time=”09:12″] I feel it’s probably different for everybody. It’s harder to look at where you’re at today, whether it’s the circumstances, the condition of an injury or something like that, or other elements of your life.I think Andy Bernard says it best, I’m a huge office fan, but he says when I was here at Dunder Mifflin, I kept wishing that I was back in Stanford. And then when I was here, I kept wishing I was there, you know, I wish there was a way that we could realize we’re in the good old days when we’re there. Sometimes we can have a little bit of glorification of the memories where we were right up all the positive.
• [spp-timestamp time=”13:29″] Maybe it’s like a culture shock thing might be right. I think through the self-development in the professional development after that transition helped me/us because you realize, okay, are you over-glorifying it to celebrate those experiences.
• [spp-timestamp time=”16:28″] Two individuals that climbed it with him throughout his rehab process, he just kept saying, I’m doing it, I’m doing it. We didn’t have the heart to tell him. You can’t tell someone in that condition.
• [spp-timestamp time=”19:26″] We’re probably also supposed to struggle through that process. Yes, that’s where you learn. I tell people in the entrepreneurial space, right, like you’re supposed to make mistakes. That’s how you learn some of the most powerful things you can carry into your future. Because now they’re hard-coded in your brain because they were painful and you’re not gonna forget them. If I was able to get through that surgery, or if I was able to get through that injury, and I was able to do that I can handle this, you know, so it can, it can really help shape us, but also give us confidence in a way going forward. So those who make it through those struggles comes with great growth.
• [spp-timestamp time=”21:53″] The trials and tribulations, the bouncing back, the mindset from an injury, I think reflecting on lessons learned. I think a lot of us skip over these lessons that we’re supposed to be learning.
• [spp-timestamp time=”22:58″] The culture of their sport where it really is, you push through like it, that’s just the culture of the sport that they play. So I think that there’s definitely to a point there’s a cultural influence.
• [spp-timestamp time=”24:10″] Turns out that I had dislocate a rib in my back, in reality you can displace the cartilage apparently. So if you’re trying to breathe and your rib cage goes to expand, mine was held back from doing that. So every time I tried to breathe, the cartilage was shifted. So I had to have a chiropractor fix all this.
• [spp-timestamp time=”25:59″] They just feel like they have to push through the pain. I didn’t know, if I was able to play with a dislocated shoulder.
• [spp-timestamp time=”26:25″] I’m letting my body recover. Maybe I’ll change it up. Maybe instead of going to the CrossFit gym, I’m going to go and maybe do some yoga or do some mobility work or do something else.
• [spp-timestamp time=”31:42″] Making sure the framed and signed “The Rock” artwork would properly go with the décor.
• [spp-timestamp time=”01:00:00″] Final Words

I kept wishing I was there, I wish there was a way that we could realize, we’re in the good old days when we’re there. – Quote: Andy Bernard (The Office)

Final Words:

I think it’s just, be in the now. Whether you’re talking injury and our previous level of functioning, or what you used to be able to do. What you wish you could do, or what the other person is doing.

It’s all about what we’re in right now. We could sit here and wish forever that the injury didn’t happen or that things went differently, it’s about accepting all of this. This is where we’re at right now, even though maybe we wouldn’t choose to be here, this is what it is. It is okay and we will be fine. There is that acceptance, whatever that present moment is giving you, we can then do something with it, in a much more efficient and impactful fashion.

The post 229: Athlete Injury Recovery and Mindset appeared first on LIVETHEFUEL.

Today we up your Mental Game and Provide you a Healthy Vision for your Future with Dr. John DeWitt and The Mission Beyond Concussion:

Dr. DeWitt is a Vanderbilt University graduate who earned a full athletic scholarship after his first semester. He went on to become the starting defensive end for the next four years and was awarded the Wade Looney Award for outstanding work ethic. He continued his football career with the NFL Houston Oilers, NFL Europe Champion Scottish Claymores, Montreal Alouettes of the CFL, San Francisco Demons of the XFL, and several teams in the AFL including three seasons with the LA Avengers.

After retiring from football, Dr. DeWitt earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Los Angeles Chiropractic College. He is practicing in Orange County, at Bergman Family Chiropractic, specializing in personal injury cases and corrective chiropractic care.

He is certified as a Golf Injury Specialist and an Advanced Sports Nutrition Specialist, Certified in Concussion Assessment.

Nutrition-based healing for concussions is gaining recognition for the vast research supporting not only how to treat a concussion more effectively and naturally, but also because nutrition helps prevent serious effects of traumatic brain injuries.

Dr. DeWitt provides an “in the trenches” perspective on concussions and what they can do over the course of a lifetime for anyone in almost any sport.

During his playing days, Dr. DeWitt personally experienced multiple concussions which he didn’t think much about. “Getting your bell rung” was part of the game. It wasn’t until the movie Concussion came out that he revisited these injuries and was inspired to write the book, Head Games: Concussions and CTE, Where Do We Go From Here?

More recently, his father has been diagnosed with early onset cognitive decline which has caused him to double his efforts on researching brain health. He has a daily podcast on blogtalk radio called BrainBuilders and has an online course called BrainBuilders Masterclass. He shares the latest research on strategies that are stopping and REVERSING cognitive decline in those suffering with all forms of cognitive issues from Alzheimer’s to CTE.

He has written over a dozen books on Golf Injuries, Natural Vision Correction, How to Earn a College Scholarship, Goal Setting and more.

Dr. Megan Is Back To Talk Mindfulness!

Megan is our regular monthly co-host for discussing topics in and around Sports Psychology. Today’s podcast we are digging deeper into the topic of Mindfulness. She talks to our audience about so many high-value topics such as health, fitness, mindset, etc. Specializing as a Sports Psychologist, Megan brings a wealth of mindset development and a whole lot more to our show. Listen in while we catch up with Dr. Megan Cannon Ph.D.

Let’s see how you, the listeners, like the performance and knowledge we can cram into 30-minute episodes! Today’s first thirty power session is on the importance of Body Image, I think we definitely got plenty of impact in with this topic, listen in!

On This Episode You Will Hear:

Final Words:

Be aware in that acceptance. Being in the moment is part 1. There really is an acceptance here. Sometimes that lack of acceptance can get us stuck in areas we really didn’t want to be in, in the first place.

Life is going to have its ups and its down. We have to keep up with ourselves in terms of mentally being in that moment. We must have that awareness and that insight with what’s going on, how our bodies are reacting and responding to it. We must get to the point where we say “okay I accept this is happening, I don’t have to like it but I can accept it”. We are then able to live so much more whole, full, and really maximize our potential.

50th Podcast with 2 Co-Hosts!

Welcome to our 50th podcast of LIVETHEFUEL. For this milestone Episode, we are joined by Dr. Megan Cannon and Erin Sparrold of Mind of the Athlete. This episode is about taking the time to be more aware of the people around us and to start inflicting positive change in our lives and the people around us. Start making the complex, simple. We bring back Dr. Megan and Erin to take the mental and nutritional standpoints and help you cultivate your positive change.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

• [spp-timestamp time=”02:31″] Re-Building a healthy body image from a mental and nutritional standpoint.
• [spp-timestamp time=”05:29″] Helping people understand the benefits and the power of food, is hugely important. Knowledge is power and unfortunately, right now in the media, there is so much negative information surrounding food and nutrition. There is so much pressure put on people and negative messaging that people do not understand the positive powers food has to help you build your health.
• [spp-timestamp time=”08:00″] Body Image. You have to work with the body you have got. We are given these visual ideas of what we think our bodies should look like. But that does not always match up with the reality of our own biology.
• [spp-timestamp time=”11:08″] Perceptual body image.
• [spp-timestamp time=”14:14″] The image that we are holding ourselves to is not a healthy way to live day to day. People that compete in body sculpting, bodybuilding and physique competitions do not live like that 100% of the time.
• [spp-timestamp time=”16:54″] You can’t sustain a high level of performance consistently, you have to let your body and mind rest. That’s why there are training cycles.
• [spp-timestamp time=”18:00″] How you talk to the down curve. You need to have other things, other goals and not be setting your whole identity around one pillar. Having a sole focus is never healthy because the come-down from achieving that focus or goal can be really hard.
• [spp-timestamp time=”19:55″] Why people struggle to handle the transition from the journey to the destination
• [spp-timestamp time=”21:46″] Being aware and noticing behavioral changes. Don’t be scared to check in with people to see how they are doing. It gives the person who requires the help an outlet to talk.
• [spp-timestamp time=”24:41″] Having the dialog, being honest with each other. It helps normalize the down after competing.
• [spp-timestamp time=”26:02″] Holding ourselves accountable to be more aware of what’s actually happening with the people in our lives.
• [spp-timestamp time=”29:25″] Listen for the things that people are doing right and tell them that’s awesome. Build on the positive stuff people are doing rather than the things they are not doing right. Those small lifting moments helps build the positive habits in others. Those little bits of encouragement can be very powerful.
• [spp-timestamp time=”31:53″] It’s not the massive things we need to try and change, it’s the small things. Take 5 minutes to check in with someone. You have no idea the impact it will make on them.
• [spp-timestamp time=”33:26″] Simple things we could be doing right now.
• [spp-timestamp time=”35:42″] It’s the simple things. We need to be taking complex things from our lives and start breaking them down into very simple steps.
• [spp-timestamp time=”38:22″] Final Words of our 50th Podcast

Final Words

When any of us go through those dark times, we go through those struggles, which inevitably happen to us. They get thrown at us, we get curve balls and the most important thing to remember is it is not permanent. Right now you may be stuck at this moment. It may appear to last forever, and you can’t see the end of the tunnel, but it is there.

When we go through things, when there are those struggles, it’s that awareness, that ability to see that there is another side of this. It’s not permanent. You can get help. You can get resources. You can get out of it with the aid of others, companies, podcasts, etc.
