#008 Comfortable in the Uncomfortable
Welcome to the Mind Shift Podcast Ep. 008 - Comfortable in the Uncomfortable
We are so excited to announce that we have officially launched The Arena! This week was monumental, as we hit over 100 members. It was electrifying to witness newcomers engage in insightful dialogues, especially discussions around identifying one's worldview. Another highlight was the news about the forthcoming launch of 'Mind Shift' in October, coupled with a conference in Los Angeles - The Arena - Live in Los Angeles.

One thing that stood out was the discussion about the balance between insecurity and confidence. These seemingly opposing emotions play significant roles in the lives of many successful individuals. They might exude confidence and feel a strong sense of purpose or destiny. Yet, concurrently, they may grapple with internal insecurities, doubting their worth or abilities. It's crucial to understand that feeling insecure is a part of our human journey. Drake, as an example, commands both admiration and criticism, proving that success doesn't make one immune to detractors. When faced with moments of discomfort, our reactions truly define us.
Navigating uncomfortable situations and the feelings they invoke is something we all grapple with. It's far too common for individuals to seek echo chambers, interacting only with those who share their beliefs or opinions. But growth often comes from challenging our comfort zones. There's immense power in controlling our reactions to situations and people; it's a hallmark of true leadership. In this ever-evolving world, adaptability and resilience are pivotal. Leadership isn't about evading criticism but about moving forward despite it, always prioritizing personal growth and adaptation. As we move ahead, stay tuned for the release of 'Mind Shift' in October and be sure to join The Arena community for a deep dive into leadership, communication, and character development. -

#006 Effortless Excellence
In episode 006 of the Mind Shift Podcast, we dive deep into the realm of genius and what it looks like to have effortless excellence.
The magic of artistry and genius is not just to witness, but to fully absorb, becoming a part of one's very essence. Drawing inspiration from our recent trip to Copenhagen to visit the incredible “Nova” as well as Jeff Gordinier "Hungry" book, we underline the idea that true genius does not shy away from other genius. Instead, it embraces, transforms, and evolves from such encounters.
The language of excellence isn't confined to mere words; it is seen in actions, emotions, and the tangible world. We explore the idea of individuals who exude such mastery in their fields that even amidst chaos, they appear to be gracefully floating. Pondering on the nature of beauty and how it transcends to become sacred, we dive deep into turning ordinary experiences into extraordinary ones. How can one take the mundane aspects of life, sprinkle it with imagination, and turn it into an inspiring tale not just for oneself, but for everyone around?
Life is a frequency unique to every individual. By tapping into this frequency, we connect with others, discovering beauty in the simplest of things, like flowers on a mountain's edge. The ultimate message? Life is an adventure, enriched by the memories we create and share with people that truly matter to us.

Customer Reviews
Feels like i’m listening to convos between me & my mom.
I love these conversations and the boldness. Every time I listen I find myself wanting to share with my mom because it feels so much like conversations we have :) Re-discovered the podcast yesterday and the new branding lovely plus episode #003 on fear is michelin star level *chef’s kiss*!! Keep it up (and keep the advertisements coming bc all your projects are better than any influencer-escue advertising)!

This podcast was the challenge I needed
I realized the battle ready podcast was rebranded when I went to listen at the end of running a half marathon. How appropriate. Completing a big goal has always created a follow-up difficult transition period in my life to figure out how to increase to greater heights and greater goals. Aaron and Erwin relate this to so many important areas that directly apply to hungry and urgent leaders so we learn to die more to ourselves and live to our fullest potential.
Shell of Former Podcast
I am a day one listener of this podcast since it’s Battle Ready days. Was my favorite podcast for years. Highly recommend archive episodes from the first few years. Since the change to Mind Shift, however, the podcast is often focused on self-promotion - the wisdom and insight from before are missing. I hope they are able to course correct in future Mind Shift episodes.
