Curious With Calvin Wayman

On today’s Fan Question Friday episode, I answer a question I’ve gotten a million times—how do you pump out as much content as you do on social media, and how can I do it too?   The answer may surprise you.   It’s not about having an awesome scheduling software.   And it’s not about “batching” or “repurposing.”   It’s about something much more fundamental. Let’s dive in!   #StayCurious  

There’s a fine line between pushing yourself and pushing yourself too far.   But what’s the difference? “No pain no gain” after all, right? How do you know when it’s pain for good, or pain for “holy shit this isn’t good?”   On today’s show, that’s what my friend Colie Wasmund and I talk about. She’s competed in two body-building competitions. She shares what she learned from the competitions, but also what we can do differently if we want to avoid the pain that she went through.   It’s a doozy! Enjoy the show! #StayCurious

Is it possible for “healthy” foods to be bad for you?   How do you know what’s good for your exact body?   Well the great news is, there is a TON of new research around biohacking and what’s good (or bad) for you, all thanks to information found in your gut. (The findings may surprise you.)   On today’s episode, I’m talking with entrepreneur, biohacker and health nerd Michael Huey, and we talk about all of these things and more.   #TuneIn and #StayCurious

Did you know you can tell a lot about someone by seeing what’s on the home screen of their phone?   It’s true. But, don’t worry, I won’t be asking to share in the comments what’s on your home screen ;)   One of the apps on my home screen though is Audible. And even deeper than seeing what is on someone’s home screen, you can learn a lot about someone by seeing what books they’re listening to. So on today’s Fan Question Friday episode, I’m going to pull the curtain back and reveal the last 3 books I listened to on my Audible.   Who knows, maybe you’ll want to add one of them on your next “must reads!”   Let’s #DiveIn!   #StayCurious  

Getting yourself to do shit that scares you.   How to breakthrough a bad day (even before it happens!)   How to win on Instagram.   Getting back on track with your health and fitness goals.   And last but not least, the importance of unicorn blood and ass cracks for your success.   All of this and MORE is covered in today’s podcast conversation with Jordan Syatt (@GaryVee’s personal trainer).   It’s absolute fire. This is an episode that missing would be a huge mistake. #JumpIn and #StayCurious

Have you ever been to Europe? What did you like best? What did you notice that was different to your home country? On today’s show, Bekah and I share our experiences from visiting London and Paris for the first time.   We had a BLAST, and we share some of our journey here. Tune in.   #StayCurious

Hey hey! On today’s Fan Question Friday, I’m sitting here in Paris, France.   While in the city that inspires artists from all over the world, I thought I’d to share something I wrote with you—a poem.   I’ve been writing more and more lately, and this is a (dark) piece that came through me recently, and I would love your reaction on it.   Sometimes, life is hardly bearable. But I think one of the worst things we can do is ignore the feelings we they hit us. This poem is designed to allow us to feel those feelings, no matter how dark they may be.   Thank you for listening! :)   #StayCurious  

Taylor Clark was here for episode 89 of my podcast, and now is back to chop it up for episode 206!   How does one find their tribe?   How is something you can do to grow beyond the bubble you were born into?   How do you get yourself to do the things you really want to do?   That’s what Taylor and I talk about on today’s show. It’s rad. Join us! :)   #StayCurious

How’s the correlation between high performance in business, and high performance in life?   Can pushing yourself in health have a positive affect in your career?   On today’s show, the person on the other end of the mic is, well, Mike.   It’s my brother from another mother Mike Szczesniak. (Ridiculous last name, I know. You’ll have to catch the episode to see how to actually pronounce it.)   We’re going to jam on everything high performance. Join the convo!   #StayCurious  

What if your flight got cancelled, and you were stranded away from home?   What if the only option to get back home was going to cost you a fortune, or take you several days to fly?   In short, what do you do when life throws seemingly impossible situations at you?   This is what happened to me last week while in Chicago. A few hours before takeoff, my flight with Frontier Airlines suddenly cancelled. No explanation. And no way to make it right.   But then some interesting things unfolded.   I think this story will show that sometimes even in very difficult situations, there just may be a silver lining after all.   Enjoy the show!   #StayCurious

“Everybody dies, but not everybody lives. And I choose to live.”   Are athletes born, or made?   When you workout and challenge yourself, is it more for your mind or your body?   What should our nutrition look like if we want to be longterm?   On today’s show, I’m chatting with my friend Lacey Byrd. She’s a master trainer, sports nutritionist, elite athlete, entrepreneur, and all-around badass.   She’s currently training for her trek to Mount Kilimanjaro (crazy, right?!!) I’ve been focusing more and more on health lately, so I knew she’s someone I wanted to have on the podcast. Enjoy the show.   #StayHungry and #StayCurious

“Get around other crazy people like you.”   That’s the one thing I tell people when they are starting out with anything new.   And the hack to getting around those people? Events.   Events have played a major role in my evolution has an entrepreneur and a human being.   On today’s show, I’m bringing on my friend who’s part of an event I speak at every year - Nik E Marie.   I first met her when she was putting on an event for Epic Mastermind Experience.   On today’s show, we’ll get an inside look on how to put on events, and also how Nik has used her event skills in being the general manager for amateur MMA events in San Diego.   It’s going to be a fun convo. Join us!   #StayCurious  

How do you find the answer to the question, “what’s next?”   You can go to Google.   You can read a book.   You can take a psychedelic drug.   I’ve done all 3, and more. ;)   But one of my favorite methods to getting answers to life’s bigger questions is by first getting connected (or rather, “reconnected”) to myself, and then asking questions from there.   And often times the best way to reconnect, is to unplug.   On today’s Fan Question Friday, I’m in Chandler AZ and I’m at the tail-end of something I call a “recalibration”—it’s where I unplug and disconnect from everything else in my life (no text messages, phone calls, emails, social media, etc.) so I can get centered and reconnected with myself.   I share some of the takeaways I got from this time around. I hope it helps. Enjoy! :)   #StayCurious

There’s only one right way to do anything.   Right?   And if that were true, who’s to say what the best right way is?   On today’s show, I’m speaking with my friend Carrie Herzberger.   Carrie is someone who thinks outside of the box in many areas, especially in education.   “Is your child failing school, or is school failing your child?” - is a question she often asks.   She was a school teacher and now has a growing online business for coaching kids to success in their education.   It’s a rad conversation. You’re gonna dig it!   #StayCurious   PS., I can hardly believe I’m saying this, but this is already episode 200 of the show!!! I’m so pumped! I guess time flies when you’re staying curious ;)

Have you ever been to Austin?   My friend Chad Molyneux is staying there, and we jam on some of our favorite things about the city.   But Chad is also someone who could be mistaken as a greek god, if he held still long enough and was naked.   He’s the founder of The Health & Wealth Blueprint, which provides a way for high achievers to be insanely healthy.   I’m about to embark on quite the fitness journey myself (I plan to sign up for a men’s physique competition) so I wanted to jam with someone who knows what to look out for.   It’s going to be rad conversation. Join us!   #StayCurious

This past weekend I was in Newport Beach, California at Cole and Sanja Hatter’s mastermind.   I’m a BIG believer getting around big thinkers because, after all, you are the average of the 5 people you associate with most.   The thing I love about this mastermind, aside from the amazing group of badass conscious capitalists, but the big thinkers that Cole brings in to speak with us.   Some of these speakers this last time included people like: Bedros Keuilian (CEO of Fitbody Bootcamp), Alex Mehr from Mentorbox, Naveen Jain (billionaire badass), and my man Billy Gene (of Billy Gene is Marketing.)   On today’s Fan Question Friday, I’m going to share my biggest (actionable) take away from each of these speakers. Let’s dive in :)   #StayCurious

Is it possible to change your life on a dime?   If so, how do you go about doing it?   And what if you’re struggling with major life problems like alcohol addiction?   These questions are why I wanted to bring on my friend Jolynn Swafford.   A few years ago, Jolynn discovered this big dude, with big teeth, and even bigger personality. His name? Tony Robbins.   The shifts that have happened in Jolynn’s life are insanely inspiring. We’ll talk about some of them on today’s show.   #StayCurious  

Where you start determines where you end up.   Right?   At least, that’s what many might say and believe.   But there are “the crazy ones” who chart a different course.   They are underdogs. They come from the wildest of situations, and completely redirect their life.   Enter Zach Bobcock.   Zach is a successful entrepreneur and host of the Underdog Empowerment podcast.   He would know a thing or two about starting out as the underdog.   A few years ago, Zach was serving a multi-year prison sentence, on multiple felony counts.   How did he turn things around? That’s what he and I jam on here in Phoenix on today’s show. It’s gonna be a great conversation. Join in!   #StayCurious

Are you an audiobook fan?   On today’s Fan Question Friday, we are diving into the first edition of “what’s on my Audible.”   I’m sharing 7 of the most recent books I’ve listened to.   Are any of them a book you’ve read lately?   #TuneIn and #StayCurious

Curiosity.   It’s one of the most powerful forces in existence and is often under-rated.   Obviously, with a show title like “Curious With Calvin Wayman,” I’m a major fan of curiosity. ;)   What if you could actually use curiosity to untangle some of life’s biggest problems and conflicts?   On today’s episode, I’m talking with author of the book, “The Curiosity Theory” Martin Lopez, and we discuss how you can do just that.   It’s an amazing, “curious,” conversation. #JoinIn and #StayCurious
