The Clarity Sessions

How often do we just move through the motions of life without really taking time? We are all guilty of running ourselves ragged at one time or another.

Usually ignoring the telltale signs that our bodies give us to let us know that we are pushing too hard. In this latest episode, Tina and I discuss the effects of this constant push on our bodies, minds, and overall health.

I also discuss a way that helps me recognize when I am pushing too hard and how to decide if I need to slow down. To further expand on that idea, I have created this awesome decision-making matrix to help you work through the decision-making process easier.

How many times have you lost sight of your goals, because they fell by the wayside of everyday life? It is something we see quite often and leaves people feeling deflated and upset with the reality they face. It can leave one feeling full of regret and disappointment. However, in this episode, we offer up a different perspective on this topic. 

Join us as we discuss real-life situations that went from dreams to goals, and how they best suited the situation we were in at that time in our life. Listen in, as Tina opens up about the way that certain people doubted the reality she faced, and how she shifted and overcame the situation and proved all the doubters wrong. 

I have a question: As you go through life, are you the engineer driving the train, or are you just going through life as the train? When you're riding down this track of life it's important to know the difference and understand that it can be changed. By making the right choices, and getting a clear understanding of how to drive the train you can switch the direction of the train.

The track may seem like it only goes one direction, however, the train can travel in both directions and transfer at different junctions. You don't have to just hang on for the ride, especially if you're not enjoying it. Join us this week as we talk about taking control of the train, and switching from being driven to doing the driving. 

Not taking control of your life, can have so many negative and detrimental side effects over time. It will also cause regret when you get older and start reflecting back on your life. We don't want that to be your story. So go ahead, and join us while we talk about how we took control and became the engineer of our own trains.

How often have you just looked up towards the sky, closed your eyes, and thought "Why Me?" When you do, do you ever feel like you're judging the universe, or genuinely seeking answers? Tina and I believe that everything happens for a reason, and there is a reason for everything. While we may not understand the reasons at the time, it doesn't mean that we should stop asking why me. 

Join the discussion this week while we discuss asking the universe the proverbial why me question. We take a look at what it means to question things and try to understand the reasons behind things that happen. We even talk about what it means when asking why things like "why aren't I successful?" Listen in and hear what I have to say about success and my thoughts on the matter. 

Too often, we go through life focused on getting the latest and greatest gadget, technology, or phone. We are even willing to wait for hours, or even days just to get our hands on the newest version of these items. How is it that we justify doing these things, however when it comes to updating our biggest piece of tech we just let it go.

Can you guess what that piece of tech is? I will give you a hint - You use it every day, without really thinking about it. We see it happen all the time. People just keep moseying through life, without really giving it a second thought. Our brains are the most overlooked piece of tech that we have. 

It baffles me how people focus on loading with physical material objects, but let the one piece that keeps them going through life just fall to the wayside. I tell you what - Instead of reading my words, as I ramble on about this topic, go ahead and grab a drink, get comfortable and listen to the latest episode where Tina 'N' I discuss updating ourselves, and why it's important to always be upgrading.  

I have always believed that people's personalities and coffee blends are actually quite similar. Some of us roll through life like a de-caf, while others push forward like a bold dark roast. Join Tina and me as we dive into this episode, and discuss the differences, similarities, and commonalities of our personalities, and coffee blends.

Do you ever feel like you are just "stuck" with no real direction or understanding of which direction to go? Maybe you feel like your life is in this rut, or valley so to speak. Join us this week as we discuss this very topic. We refer to it as "The Valley Of Despair". The place where you get stuck and become lost. 

Once again we bring some real-life examples to help you understand and begin to navigate your way out of the muck and confusion. Listen as Tina talks about her own version of "The Valley". Hear how she knew there were changes that had to happen to begin the path that brought her out of it and to the world she now loves. I give you a glimpse into my own personal "Valley of Despair" as well as let you in on how I began to make changes that brought me out of it and into a much more positive attitude and outlook on life.
