I address a a variety of ways to approach taking action so that we can take actions that are from a more inspired and focused place, rather than a fearful place. I talk about the importance and usefulness of h...

In today's episode, I talk about FEELINGS. Feelings drive all human action (or prevent action). Feelings give us vital information. They are our internal barometer and help protect us and lets us engage with others. A feeling is simply a sensation in your body or a frequency/vibration that passes through us in 90 seconds or less. But we must commit to choosing to be aware, feel, and tune into our...

In this episode, I continue to deconstruct the Mindset Model as we focus on the 2nd of the 5 elements of the model, our THOUGHTS. Topics include the importance of awareness, how to work with our thoughts to create better results, Conscious and Subconscious mind- programming & reprogramming, and why dissatisfaction is a positive thing.

In this episode, I introduce you to the Mindset Model and give an overview of how you can use this practical framework in your life to create more awareness, to feel more confident and in control in your life, to improve your emotional wellness, and to create any result you want in your life-big or small. Your thoughts create your feelings. No one tells us this, or at least directly. This is profo...

In this episode, I give some background as to the circumstances leading up to the time I spent living in the Santa Fe National Forest for 3 months during the summer of 2008. Me and my girlfriend at the time, Simone, along with my dog Chewbacca, needed an affordable place to rent at the time our lease was up at the end of May. Because we weren't finding anything, we had the exciting but terrifying...

Discomfort is the currency of our dreams. Everyone feels discomfort at all stages intermittently when growing, stretching in some way, or trying to reach goals. In order to accomplish anything in life, we need to have a compelling vision of our future and a heart-felt feeling about the version of the self we are becoming. We need to be willing to feel any feeling that might come up and feed the cr...

I chose the name for my coaching and consulting business with intention. However, the word "Rebel" is often misconstrued and has a negative connotation. Often collectively, we think of it meaning resistance, aggression, breaking the rules, disrespect, and at times even violence. Or perhaps you think of the the "bad girl or boy" who is wild and has a lot of fun. In this episode, I take time to defi...

Enjoying the journey of life with all of it's challenges and complexity can be hard, especially if we aren't where we want to be yet in any given moment. The journey is often filled with hardship and difficulty and doesn't always seem to make sense. In this episode, I explain how we could be more accepting and reverent of the journey for the way it prepares us for each new destination.

However, our brains haven't necessarily caught up to modern times where our brain interprets a lot of things and situations as dangerou...
