    CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS


    When Sean was asked to show his heart instead of his polish.
    Sean's pillars of authenticity, connection, and purpose.
    The messaging for healthy masculinity, for deeper connection, for healing, and for breaking down the walls of isolation and disconnection.
    "You're not broken, but you might be wounded."
    "We've had toxic conditioning and faulty teaching."
    When we're born, we have everything within us.
    Where shame breeds.
    "Let's stop saying what the answer is and start creating a set of questions for men to be in their own inquiry, to discover their own truth of who it is that they are that reflects their journey, that honors who they are, and that moves from a place of self-loathing of the ways that they're not measuring up to self-love for gratitude for who they are."
    The two things we can't do when talking about men's healing, men's growth, men's transformation.
    The power of seeing someone's humanity even if you don't agree with or abhor their views.
    he need to get out of the over-intellectualization we do on most topics.
    The four existential question in every one of Sean's engagements.
    The difference between learning how to behave vs. learning how to be.
    How do we heal the wounds that hold us back from being compassionate?
    The Shame Spiral

    The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Sean is, What kind of wounds do you need to address and heal in order to move forward with your life and live your truth?

    Episode 98: ⁠Jeff Buehner⁠ and His Book, ⁠The Sultan's Seven Secrets⁠

    Episode 98: Jeff Buehner and His Book, The Sultan's Seven Secrets

    ABOUT JEFF

    30 years ago, Jeff came across the writings of the richest man to ever walk the earth, Sultan Musa of Mali who could not talk openly about how he learned these wealth secrets, so he embedded the principles of his success in a fairytale. Contained in his writings is something called the Language of the Gods. When you speak this language, the
    world obeys your commands! As Jeff just dabbled in speaking this language, some very strange coincidences occurred. So, he got serious about speaking it... and his whole world changed! He went from a $60,000-a-year concrete guy to making hundreds of thousands a month in a new business that just dropped into his lap. Over the past 30 years, Jeff has successfully mentored and coached countless others to speak this all-important language that changes everything. When you learn to speak the Language of the Gods, you can drastically improve your sales, success, fitness, relationships, and anything else you desire. It’s all contained within Jeff's book, The Sultan’s Seven Secrets.

    CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS


    "I blew my opportunity to get some advice from a mentor."
    How things are different when you're raised on a farm.
    "...oftentimes the more you chase something, the more you try to make it happen, the more elusive it becomes."
    The power of reading a first page and taking a first step.
    The true lesson in Aladdin & The Magic Lamp.
    "Feelings are self-fulfilling prophecies."
    "Change your feelings, change your life."
    The power of imagination and pretending -- even as an adult.
    What is/are your magnificent obsession(s)?
    "Your subconscious mind is like a GPS."
    The power of glimpses.
    How the subconscious mind is a willing servant.

    The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Jeff is, How are your deep feelings about yourself and your circumstances impacting the result of what you want for yourself?
