The Mindful Experiment Podcast

In this episode, I share the importance of sharpening the knife.  If you have ever seen a chef work its magic, you will notice they have their own knife set. When they take out their knives, they sharpen them prior to using them. After they are done, they will clean the knives, dry them off and give them one more sharpening before putting them away. Why is this so critical for us to do in life? Th...

In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing, Shu Matsuo Post.  He is the author of the book, "I Took Here Name."  In this episode, Shu talks about how he decided to go against the traditions of his Japanese heritage and do something that he desired and thought was important. He took his wife's name rather than having her take his. As a male, who was raised Italian Roman Catholic, it was ne...

I remember growing up hearing, "You can't have your cake and eat it too." Never understood how I couldn't have a slice of cake in front of me and not enjoy it. But, as I got older and hopefully wiser, I learned that this was a form of a limited belief system. Too many times, we put our limited beliefs upon someone else's dreams and visions. Too many times, we spoil a pure mind and vision because w...

In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Staci Wallace.  You will be able to tell right off the bat that this woman is truly FUELED BY FIRE as this is also the title of her new book!

There are so many reasons why one should give into: Our excuses... Our limited belief systems... Our inner critic... Our stories we made up... Our distractions...

When you realize the power within, you can achieve anything, as long as y...

In this podcast episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing the author of the book, "Mr. Monkey and Me," Mike Smerklo. Mike shares the inner critic we all face and has done an amazing job of titling it, "The Monkey in my head."

Living an information era has so many benefits but yet, also comes with an opportunity cost.   When we depend on information all day and that becomes our main focus, we build the muscle of the mind/ego to take over more.   It starts to be the leading way of life but when this happens, it is much easier to be controlled, distracted, and a loss of focus.   In this episode, I will share with you some...

In this episode, I interviewed the managing partner of, "The Successful Male - North America," Joesph DiRoma.

One thing that is a fact about life and nature taught us this so well is that, no matter what happens, no storm lasts forever... But instead, storms come and go.

In this podcast episode, I share with you 3 things that you can do to help calm the nervous system, calm the mind, and refocus...

We are living in turbulent times and 2020 has been one hell of a rollercoaster for all of humanity... Are we done? What is yet to come? The one thing we don't ever know for sure, regardless of how much we allow EGO to run our lives, in the future. As much as we can predict and expect things to come and they do, uncertainty is always around us. One truth is, the deeper we go into the darkness, the...

Did you know the human body is the highest form of technology that humans have ever experienced and created? So much of our lives are about experiencing the external and allowing what we see from our external environment, dictate our internal environment. The sages and mystics talked about the opposite. They talked about how your inner-world, transforms your outer world.  It is the same that goes...

Giving thanks is one thing that took me some time to learn.   I was blown away by the power of gratitude as I got older.  I started to realize how humbling it was but more importantly, how it helped me feel better, even when I was down or upset. In the states, most people celebrate Thanksgiving this week, and I am asking all to focus on GIVING THANKS. But, it is in a different way than what you ar...
