    #140 - Jim Murphy - From $90,000 In Debt To #1 Bestseller: The Power Of Surrender

    Jim Murphy is a performance coach to PGA Tour, NFL and MLB athletes, a former Chicago Cubs minor leaguer, and the author of Inner Excellence, the book AJ Brown was filmed reading on the Eagles sideline that went on to become a number one New York Times bestseller sixteen years after it was written. Jim Murphy believes we control about two percent of our lives, and that the two percent is your heart and your effort. In this conversation, we explore why most people are pursuing an illusion when they say they just want to be happy, the eye diagnosis that ended his baseball career and the FedEx route that followed, the mental block that left him unable to toss a ball underhand, the New Year's Eve alone in an empty desert house, the ninety thousand dollars of debt and the homeless harpist in Denver who changed his life, the week his mother died and AJ Brown read his book on national television, and why he now calls it the book instead of my book. Surrender is giving up your little power for an unlimited one.

    #138 - Bob Peck - The One Thing The World's Mystics All Agree On

    Bob Peck is an Austin writer and former documentary filmmaker, and the author of Original Sin Is a Lie, a book on what the world's mystics have been saying all along. Is spirituality about finding what is true, or finding what feels useful? Bob Peck says it's both. In this conversation, we explore the four deaths he witnessed before age ten and how they sent him to Thich Nhat Hanh while other kids were reading Harry Potter, his starving artist years making films that took two years and paid five thousand dollars, the novel his dad wrote that nobody read and what it was really for, how forty thousand words of late night posts surprised Bob into a book, why he believes original sin is a lie and what Jesus actually said about the kingdom within, what it means to feel God in the body, why awakening so often comes through pain we would never choose, and how Bob is learning to love his way into discipline. Under all of it is one idea: you were never stained, you are the astonishing light of your own being.

    #136 - Leif Babin - The Hardest Lessons I Learned As A Navy SEAL

    Leif Babin is a former Navy SEAL officer who led a platoon in Task Unit Bruiser during the Battle of Ramadi, co-author of Extreme Ownership, and co-founder of the leadership company Echelon Front. Leif Babin believes the greatest excuse any of us give ourselves is that it is harder for us than it is for other people. In this conversation, we explore the two rejections before he ever became a Navy SEAL, what Hell Week is actually for, the friendly fire operation in Ramadi that Jocko Willink did not want to put in their book, the brave men who did not come home, and why taking ownership of everything in your life is humbling but liberating. Everything is your fault at the end, and that is where freedom begins. #leadership #extremeownership #personaldevelopment #selfimprovement #resilience #faith Connect with Tim Doyle: https://www.instagram.com/tim.doy1e Listen On Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/soulture/id1735808362 Listen On Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/31v3y4QcQrPjiARa4ZwTh4?si=c17a49131d854b0f How to Connect with Leif Babin: Website: https://echelonfront.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leifbabin/ Book (Extreme Ownership): https://www.amazon.com/Extreme-Ownership-U-S-Navy-SEALs/dp/1250183863 Extreme Ownership Academy: https://academy.echelonfront.com Timestamps: 00:00 From 'Different' to Human 02:15 Rejected Twice by the SEAL Teams 09:18 The Greatest Excuse We Give Ourselves 11:16 What Hell Week Is Actually For 15:57 Reading History Like It Wasn't Guaranteed 19:56 Gettysburg and the Fog of War 24:59 First Operation in Ramadi 27:25 The Chapter Jocko Didn't Want to Write 34:00 'Bow to Your Sensei' 36:08 Leading by Asking Questions 39:03 Learning Extreme Ownership by Not Taking It 44:01 The Common Denominator Is You 46:24 August 2, 2006 49:38 Survivor's Guilt and Faith 51:18 Humbling but Liberating 55:33 Straying From and Returning to Faith 57:49 Refusing to Accept 'You Can't Anymore' 1:00:45 You Don't Have Time Send us Fan Mail Thank you so much for listening.

    #135 - Dr. Lee Warren - A Neurosurgeon's Operating Manual For Mental Health

    Dr. W. Lee Warren is a practicing neurosurgeon, Iraq War veteran and New York Times bestselling author whose latest book, The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery, teaches how to put your mind in charge of your brain. Dr. Lee Warren believes your mind and your brain are not the same thing, and that the moment you understand which one is in charge, your mental health can get better instead of worse. In this conversation, we explore what a functional MRI reveals about a single thought, the day in the scanner that changed how he grieved losing his son, why self-help is not self-reliance, what neuroplasticity does whether or not you direct it, how faith measurably changes the brain, the trunk of war memories he left in his garage for five years, why two things can be true at the same time, and the danger of making an idol out of your pain. You are not stuck with the brain you have.

    #132 - Dom Fusco - Why Achievement Won't Save You

    Dom Fusco is a faith driven health creator and endurance athlete in Austin who survived a sudden cardiac arrest at 24, flatlining for two and a half minutes after a mile run on a local track. Pain reveals who you are. Pride covers who you are. Dom Fusco learned both the hard way, numbing college injuries with drinking, chasing achievement, and trying every self-help practice imaginable while feeling more empty by the day. Then, on August 5, 2023, his heart stopped on a track in Austin. In this conversation, we explore pride as the root of every other struggle, why numbing pain ends in feeling nothing at all, willing versus unwilling suffering, and the faith that turned a second chance into a surrendered life. His story didn't happen to him. It happened for him.

    #131 - Owen Fitzpatrick - The Lies That Feel Most True Are The Ones You Tell Yourself

    Owen Fitzpatrick is a social psychologist, keynote speaker, and author of Inner Propaganda, a USA Today bestseller. Qualified as a hypnotherapist at seventeen, he has spent his life studying how beliefs are formed, working as a therapist and executive coach and traveling to North Korea, Afghanistan, and Rwanda to understand propaganda from the inside. He also hosts the Inner Propaganda podcast. Owen Fitzpatrick was fourteen years old when a single question in his own suicide note stopped him from ending his life, and he has spent every year since trying to understand why one sentence could change a belief that felt absolutely true. In this conversation, we explore why the brain works like a news channel with an editorial agenda, how feelings decide what gets to feel true, the rules for knowing when to trust your gut and when it is tricking you, why the inner critic is better understood as an inner dictator you can talk back to, the anti fragile identity story that turns every failure into training, and why believing what is useful can matter more than being right. It is a conversation about becoming less certain so you can believe in yourself more.

    #130 - Hal Elrod - He Died For Six Minutes And Woke Up With A Better Way To Live

    Hal Elrod is the creator of The Miracle Morning and the SAVERS routine, a keynote speaker, and the subject of The Miracle Morning movie. At 20 he was hit head-on by a drunk driver, died for six minutes, broke eleven bones, and was told he would never walk again. Years later he survived a rare and aggressive cancer. He is still here, and he is at peace. Hal Elrod believes happiness is a fleeting emotional state, but peace is an ever-present one you can choose. In this conversation, we explore the five minute rule that let him accept the unimaginable, why he asked the judge for a shorter sentence for the drunk driver who nearly killed him, the Jim Rohn quote that turned a financial collapse into the first Miracle Morning, the seventh S that has to break before the other six can begin, how he gave his cancer a one hundred percent survival rate, and why the best moment of your life is always this one. It is a conversation about what radical acceptance actually costs, and what it gives back.

    #128 - Baron Ryan - Chasing The Dream Might Be What's Blocking It

    Baron Ryan is a writer and filmmaker whose deadpan short videos built an audience of millions, and whose first feature, Two Sleepy People, was written, shot, and edited in three months. Baron Ryan believes the only thing that ever actually helped him was accepting that he is not special. In this conversation, we explore how giving up on a dream is what finally made it happen, why self-help books felt like doing the work without doing the work, how growing up homeschooled in Missouri with no cable built a pre-digital imagination, what writing three videos a day taught him that no writing class could, and why the weight you carry never gets lighter, you just get stronger. It is a conversation about making things honestly, and about what happens when you stop protecting the image of yourself.
