As we wrap up the second month of 2021, we started to think about New Year’s resolutions many of us made at the start of the year. Statistics show most people aren’t following through a few months later.
So, we wanted to take a break from the everyday news to talk about how to reach our goals, even if that means restarting right now.
Well-known podcaster, entrepreneur and author John Lee Dumas joins us to share his roadmap to reaching goals and finding more freedom.

Customer Reviews
Perfect amount of news!
I learned of your podcast in Laura Michelle Powers new book “Rock your Podcast”. I avoid news as much as possible because it often feels like negative, slanted propaganda. I don’t want to walk around with blinders in either. I enjoy your quick, balanced snippets of news!
Trump News
100% Trump, 100% of the the time! They went from being Trump obsessed to being a Trump mouthpiece. Every single story now includes a Trump quote. This is what happens when unprofessional non-journalists try to report the news. He’s out of office and they still can’t stop turning every episode into Trump World News. It’s amateurish and pathetic. Today I deleted the feed. Try The Intelligence from the Economist for a professional daily news podcast.
An A+ Newscast
