    The Alcohol Myth That Kept Me 'Fun' But Small with Dustin Dunbar

    We will learn: The surprising science behind how alcohol affects your social confidence – even after just a couple drinks A fresh approach to navigating social situations that doesn't require liquid courage The unexpected link between everyday stress and drinking habits – and how to break free from this cycle once and for all Have you ever had that moment when you're a few drinks in, feeling like the conversation is flowing perfectly... but the next morning you find yourself overthinking every single thing you said? You weren't even drunk – just "socially lubricated" enough to wonder if maybe you talked a little too much, laughed a little too loud, or shared a little too freely. Here's what's fascinating – recent studies show that millennials and Gen Z are leading a quiet revolution in drinking culture. Alcohol consumption among young adults has dropped by 20% in the last decade. They're asking the questions many of us have been afraid to ask: Why is having a drink in hand the default setting for every social gathering? But here's where it gets really interesting – 70% of people who rely heavily on alcohol have underlying stuff they haven't dealt with. Not necessarily major trauma – sometimes it's just the accumulated stress of life, social anxiety, or patterns we picked up growing up. When you really think about it, alcohol isn't solving these challenges; it's just putting them on pause. Today our guest is Dustin Dunbar, founder of the Alcohol-Free Revolution and author of a groundbreaking new book that's challenging everything we think we know about drinking culture. After watching alcohol's subtle but persistent influence through three generations of his family, Dustin didn't just break free from these patterns – he's starting a movement that's helping thousands rediscover what genuine connection feels like without the buzz.

    How to Build Relationships That Actually Fill You Up with Sah D’Simone

    In this episode, you'll learn: How to build authentic relationships that fit your current life stage (no time machine required) The difference between being connected and feeling connected (they're not the same thing) Practical ways to deepen relationships and create new ones, no matter how busy or complicated your life is Have you ever noticed how loneliness shows up differently as we move through life? Maybe in your twenties it hit you at 4 AM when you realized your party crew wasn't really there for you. Or maybe it's hitting you now, in your thirties or forties, when you're staring at your phone wondering when making friends got so damn complicated. Here's what nobody tells you about growing up: connection gets trickier. Maybe you're married with kids, and your idea of social life is trading war stories with other parents at pickup. Or you're single, watching your friends disappear into their domestic lives while you're still trying to figure out where to meet people who aren't swiping right. Or you've got that high-powered career you worked so hard for, but somewhere between the promotion and the corner office, your friendships started feeling like another item on your to-do list. The science behind this is fascinating. Research shows that our social connections peak in our mid-twenties, then start declining steadily. By our mid-thirties, many of us have less than half the social connections we had a decade earlier. But here's the thing – our need for genuine connection doesn't decrease. If anything, it gets stronger. Today our guest is Sah D'Simone, a spiritual teacher who understands this evolution of connection. After his own journey from surface-level relationships to creating deep, meaningful bonds at every stage of life, he now guides others through the complex landscape of modern connection.

    Shattering the Illusion of Control: A Masterclass in Conscious Creation with TJ Woodward

    We will learn: How to spot and break out of subconscious loops that keep you stuck Practical ways to start consciously creating a life that’s actually yours Tools for creating real, lasting change in every part of your life One day, you’re wild, free, spontaneous—living each moment like anything could happen next. And then, before you know it, you wake up and realize… you’re living the same day for the 5,000th time. It doesn’t happen all at once. At first, that routine feels comfortable, like you’ve finally got things under control. But soon enough, it’s like you’re stuck on a loop. The same habits, the same thoughts, the same patterns keep showing up. And every time you try to break free or make a change, it’s like you’re right back where you started. If you’ve ever felt trapped in a loop like that, you know how it feels. Maybe for you, it’s not something visible, like an addiction or habit. Maybe it’s quieter—a fear that keeps you from making bold choices, a doubt that stops you from trying new things, or just the weight of knowing that you’re not living life on your terms. So how do we break the cycle? How do we step out of these old loops and start creating something real, something that feels like ours? Today our guest is TJ Woodward, a transformational coach and author who dives into the power of conscious creation. TJ’s work is all about unraveling the patterns that keep us in autopilot mode so we can take back control, break free from our loops, and start living fully. TJ is a featured thought-leader on WholeHearted.org along with Brené Brown, Marianne Williamson, Dr. Gabor Maté, and Mark Lundholm.

    Rising Above Darkness: Suicide Prevention and Building Resilient Minds with Niyc Pidgeon

    We will learn: How positive psychology techniques can be applied to prevent suicide and improve overall mental health. Practical strategies, including Niyc's "333 system," that you can start using today to build resilience and cope with life's challenges. The importance of creating meaningful connections and how small daily actions can make a significant difference in mental well-being. Have you ever noticed how we tend to avoid talking about suicide until it's too late? It's a topic that many of us shy away from, perhaps because it's uncomfortable, or maybe because we think it won't touch our lives. But the truth is, it affects more of us than we realize. The thing is, when it comes to suicide, we often tell ourselves that hindsight is 20/20. We say, "If only we had known, we could have done something." But is that really true? Or is it just a comforting lie we tell ourselves to ease the pain of loss and helplessness? The reality is, we don't have to wait for hindsight. We can take action now. We can learn to recognize the signs, to have those difficult conversations, to create environments where people feel safe opening up about their struggles. But it's not just about recognizing when someone is in crisis. It's about building a society where mental health is prioritized, where seeking help is normalized, and where we all have the tools to support ourselves and each other through life's challenges. Our guest today is Niyc Pidgeon, an award-winning Positive Psychologist, Keynote Speaker, Business Mentor, and author of the book, "One More Day." She is the Founder of The Positive Psychology Coach Academy CertificationⓇ Program and is on a mission to help a billion people become more mentally healthy.

    Miscarriage, Disaster, and Family Crisis: How 15 Years of Healing Helped Me Move the Hardest Month of My Life with Melissa Monte

    How has everyone been doing? because I have been going through it. September was the most challenging month of my responsible-adult-chapter of my life. It tested every ounce of my resilience and every spiritual tool I've ever preached about. It was the kind of month that makes you question if the universe has a personal vendetta against you. Grief, fear, and raw survival instincts hit me all at once. Here's what I've discovered: in most cases, it's not about rising above or avoiding certain experiences, but instead, radically changing how you experience them. Instead of spiraling in the storm, you dance in the rain. So in this episode, I'm about to share the story of my month filled with loss, terrifying medical chaos, natural disasters, and the business decision that forced me to navigate it all while literally evacuating my family to safety. And I’m also going to share how I’m dealing with it all, because I am still currently in it… what I’m learning, how I’m processing, what I'm leaning into and out of, and my personal healing tools.

    Unlocking Higher States of Consciousness through Transcendental Meditation with Dr. Tony Nader

    We will learn: How consciousness, not your brain, is the primary creator of your reality. The secret to meditation's deep rest and wakeful alertness. How transcendental meditation can transform your brain functions, improve your physiological age, and even alter your DNA. Do you ever catch yourself thinking, "Damn, why does my brain keep screwing me over?" Maybe you're stuck in an anxiety spiral, or you can't kick that habit you've been trying to ditch for years. Trust me, I've been there, and it's a special kind of hell. Here's a wild thought: What if everything we think we know about our brains is completely backwards? Most people have the wrong expectations of meditation… and actually meditation is kind of the antithesis of meditation. And transcendental meditation helps you get to that state. Non judgment. Non attachment. No expectations. Letting go. And sometimes, even moments of bliss.  Our guest is Dr. Tony Nader, one of the godfathers of transcendental meditation and basically an expert in consciousness. And I know I know… consciousness doesn’t mean a whole lot unless you’re deep into spirituality. But what about tapping into infinite creativity, higher potential, more energy, and just carrying bliss throughout your day? This episode is going to make you rethink everything you thought you knew about your mind.
