    Why your sleep supplement stack can’t fix your bedtime.

    If you’ve been chasing better sleep, fat loss, or muscle gain with “perfect” supplements and still feel stuck, this episode will explain why. I’m Angela Shurina, Certified Sleep Coach, and I’m breaking down the coaching framework I use to help clients stop majoring in minors and start getting real results from the essential efforts. We start with a simple story: a client sleeps poorly, takes all the supplements, and still wakes up tired. Then we zoom out to performance and body composition. Muscle building is a recipe: challenging strength training, enough total calories, adequate protein, key micronutrients, and sleep for recovery and muscle protein synthesis. Fat loss is also a recipe, and it still runs on energy balance and a calorie deficit, no matter how magical a new diet trend sounds. If this helps, subscribe, share it with one person who’s struggling, and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or a five-star rating on Spotify. Want direct help prioritizing your habits for sleep, stress management, nutrition, fat loss, or muscle gain?

    1694 Podcast Episodes - how to build consistent creative output without waiting for inspiration. 3-step secret formula that every artist follows.

    If you’ve ever said, “I just don’t feel like creating today,” this conversation challenges the assumption hiding inside that sentence. We’re talking about consistent creativity, deep work, and the unglamorous skill that separates people who finish from people who only plan. We connect the dots between professional standards in everyday work and the way we often treat our creative goals like optional hobbies. A key theme is the shift from amateur habits to a professional mindset: Steven Kotler’s willingness to practice in bad conditions so output doesn’t depend on perfect energy, and Neil Gaiman’s simple constraint that protects focus, write or do nothing. Then we get practical. We explain why routine is more than discipline, it’s biology. When you write, train, eat, or sleep at consistent times, your brain and body start preparing in advance.  Your homework is simple and challenging: when is your muse date, and how will you protect it? Subscribe for more tools on personal growth, creativity, and high-performance habits, and if this helps, share it with a friend who wants to be consistently creative and leave a review so more people build a creative routine that lasts. _______________________ Support The Show and Turbocharge Angela 🙂 1-1 Session to Feel & Look Your Best with 2-week Support to Build Consistent Habits.

    From 11 startups to Entrepreneurs' Organization Global Chair: Joaquin Cordero's unlikely climb through broken bones, bee attacks and buying failing companies.

    Joaquin Cordero was 8 years old the first time he made money selling something — small wooden spinning tops to other kids in Guatemala City. Since then he's founded eleven companies, survived 2 broken necks, a bee attack 30 meters up a rock face, and a bone infection that hit the exact week he stepped into the EO Global Chair seat at a 22,000-member global organization. In this episode, Joaquin unpacks what carried him through all of it — and the one piece of advice he keeps giving younger entrepreneurs. Some notes from Joaquin's story we get into: 🪃 Started hustling at 8 — spinning tops, then music-for-parties, then a hot dog cart — long before his first "real" business 📚 Credits an early reading habit (now mostly podcasts) for the growth mindset that got him through repeated failure, including a franchise that went bankrupt right out of university 💥 A near-fatal bee attack 30 meters up a rock face, followed by a broken neck and foot — one of two close calls that reshaped how he sees mortality and risk 🦴 Broke his fibula in the Dolomites right as he began his year as EO Global Chair, then spent 45 days on IV antibiotics for a bone infection — a real-time stress test of his systems and mindset 🧘 Stoicism (Ryan Holiday, Marcus Aurelius) as an operating philosophy, and why he believes falling into victimhood is "a very hard place to fall into" 💊 Why he calls discounts "cocaine" for a business, and the simple framework he uses to choose — and fire — clients ⏰ His 1-10-10-10 "miracle morning" (tracked for 2,000+ days), intermittent fasting, and a weekly huddle built around one word, one win, and one bottleneck 👥 Building a company of "collaborators, not employees" with 10–17 year tenures, a hard stop at 5pm, and a belief that culture beats strategy 👥 How relationships — not tactics — got him elected to lead 22,000 entrepreneurs across 68+ countries 🙏 The advice he keeps giving younger entrepreneurs: don't be afraid, because your brain isn't you — it's just trying to keep you alive ... and so much more!😃 If you've ever wondered how to keep building after your business fails, your body breaks, or your title disappears — this conversation is for you. Bio Joaquín Cordero is CEO and founder of Lumen, a communications and advertising company operating across Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras, serving global brands including Volkswagen, Danone, and Mitsubishi. Over 25 years, he's founded or co-founded 11 ventures — from a VHS rental shop and a rock-climbing gym to Kinimovil, a mobile content and billing company that operated across 12 countries and partnered with more than 20 telecom providers. A 14-year member of the Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO), Joaquin climbed every rung of its leadership ladder to become Global Chair for 2025/26, leading a network of 22,000+ entrepreneurs across 68+ countries. He hosts the Lumen Podcast, is a devoted rock climber and adventure motorcyclist, and lives in Guatemala with his wife and daughter.

    Why you fail to do things you know you “should” do. And 2 steps to fix your discipline for fasting.

    You can feel fully capable and still not follow through and that is not a moral failure, it is a signal. When we catch ourselves saying “I should” or “I could,” we’re hearing hesitant language out loud, and it usually means our brain is not convinced the goal is worth the cost. In this episode I unpack how that shows up with healthy habits like intermittent fasting, nutrition, exercise, sleep, and productivity, and why forcing more willpower backfires. We start with the first lever: getting very clear on your why and the best exercise I do with my clients for that. Then we hit the second lever: planning for when it sucks (not the way you think). I give concrete self-management options I give to my clients and use myself when I'm getting ready for a fitness competition, and explain why “I’ll try harder” is not a plan. If you want practical behavior change tools, motivation that lasts, and a cleaner path to your goals, listen through the end. If this helps, subscribe, share it with someone who keeps “should-ing” on themselves, and leave a quick review so more people can find the show. _______________________ Support The Show and Motivate Angela 🙂 1-1 Session to Feel & Look Your Best with Support Text Me Your Thoughts and Ideas Support the show Brought to you by Angela Shurina   Certified Health, Sleep, Performance & Executive Coach 360 with 18 years of experience helping people change to feel, be and do their best.

    How to build habits when your life has no schedule, routine or consistency. Anchor Moments.

    If your calendar changes every week, your habits can still stay rock solid and it starts with one surprisingly simple move: stop attaching consistency to a schedule and start attaching it to a consistent daily trigger that happens no matter what. We talk through why more than 80% of daily decisions happen on autopilot, and how that autopilot can either build your health or quietly drain it when life feels scattered. We answer a common question from people who retire, travel often, work hybrid hours, raise kids, or run their own business: how do you build routines when you have no routine? Our go-to strategy is “anchor moments” the few things that happen no matter where you are, like waking up, brushing your teeth, showering, coffee, lunch, or dinner. We show how to tie your most important habit, especially consistent exercise, to one of those moments so it becomes as automatic as hygiene.  You’ll also get the practical layer that makes this work anywhere.  "Your best intentions die of lack of preparation" If this helped, subscribe, share the podcast with a friend, and leave a review so more people can build calm, strong routines in a chaotic world. _______________________ Support The Show and Motivate Angela 🙂 1-1 Session to Feel & Look Your Best with Support Text Me Your Thoughts and Ideas Support the show Brought to you by Angela Shurina   Certified Health, Sleep, Performance & Executive Coach 360 with 18 years of experience helping people change to feel, be and do their best.
