They simply love us for who we are in the purest, most genuine way possible.They remind us to enjoy the simple pleasures—a walk in the park, a game of fetch, a quiet moment of cuddling. They teach us the value of being present, of living in the moment without worrying about the future or dwelling on the past.In many ways, dogs embody the best qualities we aspire to have. Their love is a light, guiding us through our darkest times and celebrating with us in our happiest moments.Today, we’re unfolding a few more life lessons learned from love, loss, and dogs.

We will learn: The hidden power of acceptance in relationships. How asking thought-provoking questions can revolutionize your conversations and relationships. How to craft questions that avoid dead-end answers and spark powerful, transformative discussions. Have you ever noticed that certain conversations or people leave you feeling a particular way? Maybe it’s a really good feeling—like true connection, fulfillment, or belonging. Or maybe it’s not so great, leaving you frustrated, disconnected, or defensive. Sometimes, it’s hard to pinpoint why.The question is, do certain dynamics just exist as they are, and you’ll never feel that harmony? Or is there something you can do to spark it? To align better with the other person?Too often, when we shift our own patterns, the people and circumstances around us shift too. And that starts with our own communication.So today, we’re going to learn how to shift your life by asking better, more intentional questions and how to create those moments of true connection more regularly.Our guest is Topaz Adizes.

We will learn: How to plant seeds of change within your relationships How to challenge your perspective and understand others more deeply How to use an inside-out approach when dealing with disagreements Have you ever been in the middle of an argument and felt like there was no way out?The exhausting back-and-forth where nobody seems to give an inch can leave you wondering if there's a way to find common ground without giving up what you believe in.We often try to show who we are by what we believe. And in a way, that becomes true. Because if we identify with our belief system, it's who we become and it's who others see us as.But if we identify with a deeper set of values, then we start to see everything else as just the armor we wear. The outfit we have on.Who we truly are is always beyond that. And if we can get over ourselves long enough to connect on that level, I honestly believe our entire world would change.So that's what we're talking about today. Our guest is Justin Jones-Fosu. He's the embodiment of energy, both at home and on top of the world's highest peaks. He recently even conquered one of the famous 7 Summits.

It’s the reptilian brain. The part that’s been running the show since the caveman days. And if you don’t learn to manage that part of your brain, you never clear the weeds to hear your true inner voice.So, I want you to imagine moving through life with a sense of purpose and alignment, making choices not from a place of fear but from a place of confidence.That’s exactly what we’re diving into today.
