If you’re a human being, then you’re familiar with the emotion of REGRET.  It is IMPOSSIBLE to go through life and not experience regret.  Those are the FACTS.The good news is that regret, when managed properly, is HEALTHY. It serves as a COUNTERBALANCE and as a TEACHER. You LEARN more from the things you don’t do and second guess later, than those things you undertake in life.This week, you’re not going to have any regrets when you hear what DANIEL PINK has to say about the topic of regret.Dan’s new book, THE POWER OF REGRET is a deep exploration of how looking backward moves us forward. By the time you’re done listening to Dan’s insights, you’ll know exactly why regret is an often MISUNDERSTOOD EMOTION, and how you use insights into your own regrets to flip the script and lead your BEST LIFE.This is one of seven books Dan has written, including FIVE that are NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERS.  His work is so universal that those books have been translated into 42 LANGUAGES and sold millions of copies around the wo

You’ve all heard of REEBOK.  Many of you own one or more pairs of Reeboks.  But how many of you know the fascinating story behind the brand?  Reebok’s history and how the company evolved over the past several decades has both been a MARATHON and a HUNDRED-YARD DASH at times.  Through it all, there is one man who has been there from the beginning.  This week’s guest, the legendary JOE FOSTER, has got 60 YEARS of experience he’s going to share, so step up to the starting line and get ready for a run like you’ve never heard before.Running shoes and running companies are both in the Foster family genes.  Joe’s grandfather, also Joseph W. Foster, pioneered the spiked running shoe and gained worldwide notoriety making those shoes under the brand J. W. Foster & Sons Ltd.  The best athletes of the early 20th century used them to set numerous WORLD RECORDS and earn a slew of OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALS.  From those successes, Joe and his late brother Jeff launched Reebok in the UK in 1958.  It took another 20 years to crack t

How often are you exhausted by being busy all the time, but not ever feeling very productive?  Do you get frustrated that you’re not closer to living the life you dreamed of?If so, get ready to download some KNOWLEDGE that’s going to CHANGE how you live. One of the ways your brain is REMARKABLE is that it is always searching for ways to conserve energy by being more EFFICIENT.  And one of the most important ways it does this is by steering you toward what you already know.And what you already know are your HABITS.The science behind HABITS and PRODUCTIVITY is a fascinating topic.  Once you understand how habits are formed, you can apply this knowledge to your life and create MASSIVE POSITIVE CHANGES.This week, I’m excited to discuss exactly how you can do that with one of the TOP EXPERTS in this field.  CHARLES DUHIGG is a Pulitzer-prize-winning reporter and the author of “Smarter Faster Better,” about the science of productivity, and “The Power of Habit,” about the science of habit formation in our lives, com

This week, you’re going to hear some incredible lessons on how to build a WINNING TEAM, LEADERSHIP, CULTURE, and DISCIPLINE from one of the legends in her chosen profession.   I consider my guest one of the ALL TIME GREATEST coaches in the history of college sports! Period. Her chosen sport is COMPETITIVE CHEERLEADING.   Cheerleading has changed in recent years.  For many participants, long gone are the days of standing on the sidelines encouraging fans to show their spirit.  Competitive cheerleading at a high level requires as much PERSEVERANCE, PRACTICE, and DEDICATION as much as any other athletic undertaking.   Nobody understands this better than MONICA ALDAMA who has set the STANDARD for two decades.  She coaches the Navarro College team, located south of Dallas and considered one of the best programs in the country.     During her tenure, the Bulldogs have won 14 Junior College Division National Championships and five Grand National Titles.    Yes 14 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS!   In 2020, Monica was feature

Does it feel to you that there aren’t enough HEROES in the world today?   At times, it seems like many of us have lost our way.  We’ve become so burdened by the size and number of problems in our own lives and in the rest of the world that we’re overwhelmed on how to move forward.  We feel victimized and WE WANT HELP.     We’re looking for heroes and role models to ENERGIZE us and give us the COURAGE and MENTAL TOUGHNESS we need to fight our best fight.   But what if I told you the HERO you need is already INSIDE OF YOU?   I’m truly thrilled to share with you one of the more special and remarkable conversations I’ve ever had on the show ,with my guest Robin Sharma    Many of you may already know about Robin through his work over the past 25 years.  He’s a globally renowned LEADERSHIP EXPERT who has sold 20 MILLION BOOKS in more than 90 COUNTRIES, including his latest effort, THE EVERYDAY HERO MANIFESTO.     His client roster reads like a Who’s Who of BLUE CHIP organizations that include Microsoft, Nike, Unile

I am a BIG BELIEVER in SUPERPOWERS.     INFLUENCE is at the top of my list    Superpowers are your small set of unique SKILLS, TALENTS, AND ABILITIES that give you a natural advantage you can tap into to lead your best life.   WHAT WOULD IT TAKE to get you to LISTEN to somebody who could introduce you to another superpower that would make your life even better?   What would it take for you to LEARN a superpower that could be a VALUABLE ADDITION to your life you could use several times every day?   Would you be interested?   Of course, you would!   So, as you can imagine, when I heard about ZOE CHANCE, and that she had written a book called “INFLUENCE IS YOUR SUPERPOWER: THE SCIENCE OF WINNING HEARTS, SPARKING CHANGE, AND MAKING GOOD THINGS HAPPEN” I was excited to invite her on as this week’s guest.   Zoe is a writer, teacher, researcher, climate philanthropist, and obsessed with the topic of INTERPERSONAL INFLUENCE.  She earned her doctorate from HARVARD and now as a behavioral scientist, she teaches “Master

This week, we’re going to talk a lot about an important subject that demands much more attention in times like these.     That subject is Mental health and depression   They are definitely varying degrees of the spectrum of depression.     And if you’ve ever suffered from it, or know someone who has, you know just how misunderstood and difficult that MENTAL HEALTH JOURNEY is.   My guest, JAY GLAZER, has been a fixture on Fox Network National Football League broadcasts for almost two decades now.  He’s also appeared on several TV shows, including HBO’s Ballers, The League on FX and as an announcer for UFC and Bellator broadcasts.   He’s also been very public about his overwhelming battles with anxiety and depression, SHARING HIS STRUGGLES OF “LIVING IN THE GRAY” for all the world to see.   I wanted to share his story with you because instead of letting painful depression consume him, JAY FOUGHT BACK.     He crawled out from underneath those dark shadows and CHANNELED HIS ENERGY into productive and positive pro

Most of us want to live as long as possible.     It’s a SURVIVAL INSTINCT that’s hard-wired into our DNA.   BUT IT’S NOT ENOUGH TO LIVE A LONG LIFE.   OUR QUALITY OF LIFE MATTERS, TOO.   Unlocking the secrets to a long, healthy life has CHALLENGED MANKIND since the dawn of medical science.  Those of you who know me, also know I’ve been fascinated by this subject for quite a while, too.   That’s why it’s a great privilege to welcome back this week’s guest, DR. DAVID SINCLAIR.   He is a LEADING SCHOLAR and Professor in the Department of Genetics and co-Director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for Biology of Aging Research at HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL where he has been teaching aging biology and translational medicine for aging for the past 16 years.    More than that, he is also a foremost researcher best known for his work on UNDERSTANDING WHY WE AGE and HOW TO SLOW ITS EFFECTS.    Contemporary BLEEDING EDGE RESEARCH and scientific advancements have propelled us forward and not only UNLOCKED SECRETS TO LONGEVITY but

Today, more than ever, PEACE is elusive for many people.   We need to have more discussions about PROTECTING YOUR INNER PEACE so that you can CONTRIBUTE part of that peace to the rest of the world.   That’s why this week’s guest, TRENT SHELTON, has a lot of things you’ll want to hear.  It’s rare that I ask people back on my show but Trent is one of those people you can LISTEN to and LEARN from over and over again.   Trent is a former Baylor University wide receiver who also played for the Seattle Seahawks, Indianapolis Colts, and the Washington Redskins.  He built quite a following with a series of two-minute videos to track his efforts of seeking a better life which eventually led to him founding the Christian-based non-profit organization, REHAB TIME.  Growing up as a preacher’s son, Trent is well-rounded in SCRIPTURE and often draws on those experiences in his speaking engagements, podcasts, philanthropy, and other outreach projects    While football was his PASSION early in life, helping others has turned

Tony Robbins is an icon    He’s an icon for a very good reason , which is that he has helped millions of people improve or change their lives   I AM ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE.   Tony and I have been FRIENDS for many years.  He was one of my earliest SUPPORTERS when I decided to get into performance coaching.   We’ve spent a lot of time exchanging thoughts and ideas about how to IMPROVE the human condition, and without a doubt, those are some of the most IMPORTANT CONVERSATIONS of my life.   I’m grateful for that friendship and I’m grateful to share one of those conversations with you in this interview      We know how hard all the disruptions have been for many people, from losing loved ones to COVID, job upheavals, economic ups and downs, political turmoil, and trying to face what the future holds for us.   Because our time was at a premium, we wanted to use it where it would do the most GOOD.  That’s why we focused on the fear, anger, and uncertainty so many people are dealing with right now, and how we could STA

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by your to-do list?     Do you approach each day a certain amount of angst because of stress that's gnawing at you?   This week’s guest is going to UNLOCK some important insights for you.  My guest, THATCHER WINE, is going to dig into many of the things I’ve been talking about and marry it to a proven strategy that will DRAMATICALLY INCREASE what you can accomplish this year.   That strategy is MONOTASKING.   As you can guess, it’s a complete departure from MULTITASKING which you're already well aware of.   You’ll get stuff done by multitasking, but the TRUTH is…   Multitasking teaches you how to be BUSY.   Monotasking teaches you how to be PRODUCTIVE.    Understand the difference?   Thatcher Wine is a successful entrepreneur, author, and founder/CEO of JUNIPER BOOKS that specializes in custom curated libraries and designing special edition book sets.  Since launching it 20 years ago, he’s developed a devoted Instagram following and has customers in 60 countries, including GWENE

I KNOW A LOT OF YOU ARE HURTING RIGHT NOW.   I SEE it in your messages.  I HEAR it when I talk to people.  And SOCIAL MEDIA and the NEWS are filled with stories every day of people struggling to stay afloat.    So often, we find ways to compromise as a means of living with our psychological pain and deep-seeded trauma.  Many of us have been doing it for years.   But collectively, I don’t think we’re doing enough HEALING.     Especially lately, as the pandemic has turned our entire world upside down.  We’ve done our best to cope amid loved ones getting sick or dying, losing our jobs and identity, battling isolation, and an all-consuming fear of the future.   This week’s guest, DR. FRANK ANDERSON is a psychiatrist who has extensively studied pain and trauma.  He has made it his lifelong quest to help others heal by integrating his knowledge of neuroscience and trauma treatment with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy.   His new book, TRANSCENDING TRAUMA, explores a unique, compassionate, and evidence-based ap

Whether you realize it or not, most of the THOUGHTS and ACTIONS you take daily are based on HABITS you’ve developed over time.   Your brain is wired to CONSERVE ENERGY whenever possible, and one of the ways it does this is by falling back to what it already knows.   AND WHAT YOUR BRAIN KNOWS ARE HABITS.   For the past 10 years, JAMES CLEAR has sought the answer to a single question we’ve all asked at one time or another…HOW CAN WE LIVE BETTER?  As you’ll discover, much of the answer lies in our HABITS.     In fact, through his ongoing research, James has become a groundbreaking EXPERT this subject.   His book, ATOMIC HABITS, has sold more than 5 MILLION COPIES worldwide and been translated into more than 50 LANGUAGES.   Developing the right habits is an ESSENTIAL BUILDING BLOCK of my success and something I still work on daily, so I was pumped up for this week’s episode.   You will be, too.   Like any other way to improve your life, there’s a right way to develop good habits, and James lays out a detailed 4-S
