49. Gretchen Rubin: The Power Of Habits - How To Make And Break Them

Have you ever considered how much habits play a part in your day to day successes or failures? Many of us live most of our lives on autopilot, without ever actually taking a pause to examine our positive and negative personality traits, and how they manifest as the habits that shape our destiny in life.Our guest Gretchen Rubin takes us on an inner journey of self-discovery where you'll learn how to discover your best personality traits, and how to build habits to support them.In this episode she outlines different personality types, the four human tendencies and which one best describes you. Are you a closer or a finisher? An abstainer or moderator? A night or morning type? Listen and find out. You'll also learn how to use habits to make changes naturally without engaging willpower or self-control, which often lead to exhaustion and failure. We also talk about the differences between habits and addictions, and how to get along with people who are very different from you.Gretchen is the author of several books, including the blockbuster New York Times bestsellers, Better Than Before, The Happiness Project and Happier at Home. She has an enormous readership, both in print and online, and her books have sold more than two million copies worldwide, in more than thirty languages.On Gretchen’s popular weekly podcast Happier with Gretchen Rubin, she discusses good habits and happiness with her sister Elizabeth Craft; they’ve been called the “Click and Clack of podcasters.” Her podcast was named in iTunes’s lists of “Best Podcasts of 2015” and was named in the Academy of Podcasters “Best Podcasts of 2016.” BuzzFeed listed Happier in 10 Life-Changing Things to Try in June and the New Yorker said, “Their voices remind you that life is a human project that we’re all experimenting with.” The podcast consistently ranks in the iTunes Top Charts.She started her career in law and was clerking for Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor when she realized she wanted to be a writer. She lives in New York City with her husband and two daughters. Episode Breakdown: Getting to know Gretchen and her work The value of her personality test and the 4 human tendencies: upholder, questioner, obliger or rebel. Which one are you?   Inner and outer expectations, and breaking commitments to others and yourself  Morning vs. night person: stop trying to change yourself, rather, change your circumstances Simplicity lover vs abundant lover: one size doesn't fit all Respecting the truth about ourselves and our natural habits Learning about the personality tendencies of others increases our chances to manage differences more easily Habits and addictions: is there really a difference? Using habits instead of self control, decision-making and willpower to manage changes in our lives Abstainers vs. moderators: the key is to know yourself Decision fatigue and how it wears you down  Piggybacking and the importance of knowing what's true for you Building new habits: what's the right way?  Opener or closer: are you a starter or finisher?

46. Robin Berzin: Prevention Vs. Cure: What Your Doctor Won’t Tell You

Have you ever noticed that most of the time when you present an illness or physical issue to a traditional medical doctor that their first go-to solution to your problem includes either drugs, surgery, or both? Have you ever had a doctor look into the underlying root causes of your ailment in a meaningful way? Chances are better than even that during a typical appointment with your family doc they take about 10-15 minutes to ask what your symptoms are, then prescribe a pharmaceutical to alleviate the symptom, or refer you to a specialist that offers the same type of advice. Unfortunately, the solution offered by either rarely has much of an impact, and if it does, it tends to be short-lived because the cause of the symptom has not been identified and remedied.In this episode, we take a look at our current broken, and antiquated medical system, and discover a world of exciting new possibilities in the industry of Functional Medicine. Be prepared to learn the insider secrets of the healthcare industry, as told by a highly educated and celebrated MD, and how to take control of your own health by forming a collaborative relationship with your doctor. In the new era of medicine, you need a doctor that understands how to prevent and treat illness and disease through lifestyle and dietary changes and sees pharmaceutical and surgical solutions as a last resort, rather than the first line of defense.Our guest Dr. Robin Berzin is one of the world's top functional medicine (or holistic) doctors. She's also a savvy entrepreneur in the health and wellness industry and has created a new medical care model that is quickly setting the new standard for functional medicine through her groundbreaking company Parsley Health.In addition to getting an insider's perspective on taking charge of your healthcare, you'll also gain an immense amount of practical insights and solutions to many common ailments and health issues that many of us are currently facing.If you know someone who is stuck or frustrated with their current healthcare provider or has a chronic problem that they've been unable solve, do them a favor and share this episode with them now.Episode Breakdown Parsley Health’s mission and revolutionary business model The high cost of non-conventional health care, insurance coverage hurdles, and what Parsley Health is doing to bridge the gap How Robin’s medical & business background tie the knots to create a successful business Functional medicine vs. primary care physician: the inherent differences Home birth, midwives, birthing centers, hospital birth… what’s the best approach? Underlying issue with severe menstrual cramps and heavy bleeding Drop juicing!

43. Sun Potion And The Tao Of Success With Scott Linde

Have you ever achieved a huge goal, or fulfilled a lifelong dream, and still felt that something was missing from your life? In those moments, did you consider what it would be like to just bail on your current life, and start a new one from scratch? To most of us, thoughts like that begin and end in fantasy. Those bold moves rarely come to fruition- except in the case of this show’s guest.   In this episode, we explore the spiritual-turned-entrepreneurial journey of Sun Potion's founder Scott Linde.   Scott moved to LA with big dreams of success in the material world, only to discover that outer success didn't ultimately deliver on the expected promise of inner fulfillment.    After surviving a serious auto accident, Scott decided to sell or give away all of his possessions and went on to spend five years living in the country as a minimalist. It was during this time that fate would expose him to the power of medicinal plants and herbs. While studying and practicing various forms of personal development and spiritual teachings, Scott became fascinated with plant medicines and experienced profound changes in his own health, as well as the health of his friends, to whom he introduced to these transformational foods.    In this inspiring and fascinating life story, you will learn how Scott turned his love for herbs into one of the premier supplement companies in the world.    Scott is an excellent example of someone who not only discovered his life's purpose but also had the grit and courage to share it with the world in a profitable, yet conscious way.    May you be inspired to do the same by this episode. My hope is that if enough people hear stories like Scott's, the world will become more and more abundant in conscious individuals who have the integrity to contribute to commerce in a meaningful way.    Episode Breakdown:    Life’s courses of events: hitting spiritual bottom, the snapping moment, and the cellular need to escape  Giving up his job, success and belongings to live in nature as a minimalist recluse for 5 years His plea for purpose, introduction to herbs + plant medicines, and how his company, Sun Potion, came to existence as a means to help connect the plants to the people Balancing your masculine and feminine energy to be more effective in the world The Yang of business: running a conscious and successful enterprise Fusing success principles of the achievement gurus like Tony Robbins, with the spiritual principles  Trojan horse(s) that lead to motivation and purpose How to use medicinal herbs to become more resilient and powerful  Receiving the full benefit from the plants by bringing in rituals and ceremonies What is Mucuna Pruriens and where it comes from Compliance and incremental changes: demystifying doses, and the power of frequency for adaptability Ancient symbology and the energetic signature of remembrance  The secret to protecting your supplements from sun damage, Miron glass, and how Sun Potion goes the extra mile Loving yourself: the struggles around starting and maintaining a daily ritual of self care Lifestyle recommendations   As always, my heartfelt request to you the reader/listener is that you share this show with someone you love.    Luke   THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:HumanCharger: Sun In Your Pocket.
