Moving Reality Forward w/ Trent Knox | #103
Jan 15, 2023Tap to summarizeWhat more could you ask for? We have two Trent Knox episodes in a row. This man and I always sit down with a game plan and before you know it, that game plan quickly gets tossed out the window. In our previous episode we discussed personal relationships. How we each get our social juices flowing in order to go out into the world and build community, romance, and connection. In this episode, we discuss a more professional side of things. We take our experiences working together and shed light on the possible professional journeys we will embark on in 2023. We also take a dive into the entertainment side of things and how the media we consume shapes how we ultimately interact with the world around us. As a species that consumes, we are constantly being delivered different messages and ideas. These messages are influencing the very world around us and making our goal of building genuine connections in the real world all that more difficult. Still with us? Good! Sit back, relax, and try not to think too hard about it.Intro: “Map Change” by Every Time I Diecommonchaos.netTo continue to support the podcast, share it with a friend.

Transcribe →Mental Fortitude | #98
Aug 11, 2022Tap to summarizeMental health in general encompasses a wide variety of things. Regardless of who we are or what our genetic make up is; we all experience our own mental health journeys. With that being said, is it possible that we are preventing ourselves from capitalizing on our bodies ability to thrive at maximum capacity?In this episode I talk about how small behavioral changes lead to some pretty big improvements in overall mental well being. From a change in dietary habits, to a change in daily routines, the ability to understand and learn from our own emotions, feelings, etc, is an important part of figuring our lives out.To continue to support the podcast, give it a like, share, sub, follow, review, or whatever you feel is necessary, don’t forget to check out our sponsors and pick up some great products for your health and wellness.

Transcribe →The Road to Health is Paved with Good Intentions | #97
Jul 24, 2022Tap to summarizeHealth and wellness have been very prevalent topics over the course of the last 3 years. With all this attention on health, you would think that it’d be easy for people to get their own health into check. Unfortunately, there’s no magic health method that is the end all be all in terms of improvement. No remedy or cure can restore our health to full capacity or to perfect condition. Over time our vessels and their operational state start wearing thin. If we’re not careful, that time will creep up on us, and it’ll be too late to do anything about it. There are ways, however, where we can gain control of our health through understanding the different factors of health and how they relate to us individually. For me, health has been something I thought I was dialed in on. I was attentive, calculated to a degree, and seeing results. Yet here I am experiencing some set backs.Be it physical or mental, internal or external; health is the foundation of our existence and if we truly want to start maximizing our time here, our health needs to be put in to check. I believe taking control of ones health starts with finding the proper tools and resources necessary to educate oneself. After that, it’s all about the individual actions we take to get the results we desire.To continue to support the podcast, give it a like, share, sub, follow, review, or engage through any of our social medias.

Transcribe →The Importance of Experience for Perspective | #95
Jun 7, 2022Tap to summarizeThis episode was a concoction of survival and self expression and eventually self deprecation. I know that doesn’t make much sense now, but it will. I recently graduated at the ripe old age of 34. That combined with recently receiving my purple belt in Jiu Jitsu and starting a new career has me feeling a bit out of place. I also just got over having COVID, so I had nothing but time to sit and think about my life choices, which is never good. Perhaps it’s imposter syndrome, perhaps its my difficulty accepting good things. regardless, recent events are fueling me with things to talk about and work out. Oh yea, I also lost out on a million dollar contract which is something I have never experienced before and not sure I want to again.
Transcribe →A Beautiful Mess | #94
May 14, 2022Tap to summarizeI share a few stories from this past week that really put me in an interesting whirlwind of emotions. I have been recovering all week from the normal, mundane, everyday grind, mixed with the rush of public intoxication, or perhaps, the need to feel alive. Especially after encountering a near death experience in the form of a wasp. The title of this episode is inspired by the words my friend Khalil Kennedy used to describe our experience during Saturdays event, which is the first story of this podcast.
