Ep 81Making Sense of Resistance - Summary of Steven Pressfield's War of Art - Episode 81

Every single day, there is a force working against you. You wake up with an idea, a vision, a calling, but somehow, something always gets in the way. You put it off. You tell yourself you’ll start tomorrow. Fear creeps in. Distractions take over. And just like that, another day passes without progress. Steven Pressfield calls this force Resistance. It’s invisible, but it’s real. It’s universal. And if you’ve ever felt blocked, unmotivated, or sabotaged by your thoughts, you’ve met it firsthand." But what if Resistance wasn’t the enemy? What if it was proof that you’re on the right path? What if every time you felt fear, self-doubt, or hesitation, it was a signal to push forward instead of pull back? Our guest today is Steven Pressfield and we’re diving into one of my all-time favorite books, The War of Art, exploring its powerful insights on overcoming Resistance, showing up like a pro, and doing the work that matters. We’ll also explore how this fits into the Interface Response System, how we can use steps one through three, perception, pause, and process to break free from the mental traps that keep us from creating. If you’ve ever struggled to start, stay consistent, or break through the invisible walls keeping you from your true potential, this episode is for you. Let’s go to war with Resistance!

Ep 80Making Sense of Not Thinking - Episode 80

"What if the key to clarity, peace, and true integration wasn’t in thinking more, but in thinking less? What if the struggle to bring profound experiences back into our daily lives isn’t about making sense of them, but about learning how to stop making sense of everything? Today, we dive into a concept that challenges the very way we engage with reality—the art of not thinking." "Inspired by the teachings of Alan Watts and the transformational nature of plant medicine, this episode explores why integration after a deep, present-moment experience feels so impossible. We return home to a world that demands us to live in time—wrapped in memories, future anxieties, and rigid structures that seem to swallow the magic of now. But what if the challenge isn’t about fitting that experience into ‘normal life,’ but instead, bringing normal life into the present moment? What if the real work isn’t thinking about how to integrate, but allowing ourselves to simply be?" "We’ll unpack why our thoughts create an endless loop of chatter, why we mistake our inner dialogue for truth, and how practicing moments of stillness can unlock something deeper. We’ll also connect this to the Interface Response System—how pausing, perceiving, and processing can help us transcend automatic thought and step into the richness of direct experience." "So, let’s explore the power of not thinking. Let’s step outside the constant stream-of-mind chatter and into something more expansive. Because when we stop analyzing everything, we might just start experiencing life as it truly is." "Let’s dive in."

Ep 77Making Sense of Influence - The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert Cialdini

"Why do some people seem to effortlessly connect, persuade, and close more business, while others struggle to get a simple 'maybe'? Is it confidence? Charisma? Or is there something deeper at play? The truth is, that most people approach communication, networking, and sales backward. They focus on what they want to say and what they want people to know, rather than understanding what drives people to say yes. Today, I’m breaking down Robert Cialdini’s best-seller, Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion, one of the most powerful books ever written on the science of persuasion. And here’s the kicker: we’re diving into the new insights and applications from the book’s latest edition, including Cialdini’s newest, 7th principle of persuasion, which changes the game for how we influence and build trust. If you want to increase sales, communicate more effectively, or simply understand what moves people, then stick around. This episode is about to change the way you see influence forever." Important: I encourage you all to read these books or listen to them on Audible. My hope is that these short-form synopsis's will awaken you to some great books to put on your list.

Ep 75Making Sense of Infinite "Unlimited" Potential - Episode 75

What if reality as we know it only exists because we observe it? What if the world we perceive is not an objective truth but a constructed experience shaped by our senses, conditioning, and cognitive limitations? Beyond the Veil challenges the notion that our perception of reality is complete, arguing that what we see is only a fraction of what truly exists. From birth, we are programmed by our Mother, Father, Teacher, Preacher, and Society (MFTPSE)—our perception is shaped by culture, upbringing, and biological limitations. Our senses, though powerful, filter out vast portions of reality, leaving us with a narrow sliver of what is possible. Science, neuroscience, and even ancient wisdom suggest that a Trans-Empirical Reality—a realm beyond our direct perception—exists, yet remains elusive. But what if we could tap into it? Through tools like meditation, breathwork, and plant medicines, seekers have reported accessing altered states of consciousness, breaking free from conditioned perception, and glimpsing realities beyond our conventional framework. Psychedelics such as ayahuasca, psilocybin, and 5-MeO-DMT serve as profound teachers, offering insights from this realm of potentiality—a space beyond what we typically define as "real." This exploration is not merely philosophical; it has practical implications. By understanding how our brains construct reality, we can reclaim control over our programmed responses and develop an Interface Response System—a method for consciously shifting our perception. By changing how we look at reality, we change what we see. In a world that often insists on absolutes, Beyond the Veil invites you to question, expand, and embrace the limitless potential of the unseen. Are you willing to take the red pill?

Ep 74Making Sense of How we live is how we die book by Pema Chodron - Episode 74

About the Author: Pema Chödrön, born Deirdre Blomfield-Brown in New York City in 1936, is one of the most influential spiritual teachers in the West. A former teacher and wife, her life transformed after a series of personal challenges, including a painful divorce, which led her to explore Tibetan Buddhism. She became a student of Lama Chime Rinpoche in the French Alps and was later ordained as a Buddhist nun in London by the Sixteenth Karmapa. Under the guidance of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, she deepened her practice and teaching. Pema is the director emeritus of Gampo Abbey, the first Tibetan Buddhist monastery for Westerners, in Nova Scotia, Canada. She is a prolific author, known for works like When Things Fall Apart and The Places That Scare You, which explore mindfulness, compassion, and resilience. Her teachings emphasize finding liberation through vulnerability and embracing life’s challenges as opportunities for growth. About the Book: In How We Live Is How We Die, Pema Chödrön invites readers to explore the Tibetan Buddhist teachings on the bardo, the transitional state between death and rebirth. As a side note, Buddhism embraces the concept of reincarnation. These teachings highlight how the impermanent nature of life mirrors the bardo experience and how the way we live daily reflects how we will face life's ultimate transition—death. In essence, she’s saying that the gap between birth and death is what we call life. She contends that by cultivating mindfulness, compassion, and acceptance of birth, life and death, we can navigate the uncertainties of life and death with a calm state of grace and wisdom. My personal take on this topic? I think it's important in some way to acknowledge and accept the reality of death in order to live your life fully in preparation for it. Make Sense? Important: I encourage you all to read these books or listen to them on Audible. My hope is that these short form synopsis's will awaken you to some great books to put on your list.

Ep 72Making Sense of becoming Limitless? - Episode 72

The idea of becoming "limitless" captures the imagination of many, fueled by science, popular culture, and the allure of human potential. This episode explores whether being limitless is something to strive for externally or whether it’s an intrinsic state waiting to be uncovered and set free, by removing self-imposed limitations. Drawing on Jim Kwik's best selling book Limitless, the movie Limitless starring Bradley Cooper, and the transformative realm of plant medicine experiences found at places like the Arkana Spiritual Center, we delve into how the pruning of acquired beliefs, perceptions, and programed concepts, can unlock our limitless potential. We also explore the critical role of integration, using the 7 P’s of Integration from the Arkana Spiritual Center as a practical framework for living a limitless life. By acknowledging that we are already limitless and committing to the inner work of integration, we can become unfuckwithable and navigate life with clarity, purpose, and empowerment.

Ep 71Making Sense of THE BIG LEAP by Gay Hendricks - Episode 71

Let's Make Sense of the Big Leap by Gay Hendricks. Come read a book a week with me. This is a new format by Dr. JC Doornick "The Dragon" where we take one book a week from the vault, and give you a sub 30 minute synopisis witb its primary lessons and major takeaways. In The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, its basic premise uncovers how individuals can navigate and break through their internal barriers to achieve greater levels of success, love, and fulfillment. He introduces concepts of the “Upper Limit Problem”, which is a self-imposed limit that holds people back from living from their "Zone of Genius" or state of maximum creativity and fulfillment. The key distinction there is the reference to the self imposed nature of the upper limit problem. Hendricks argues that by identifying and overcoming these limits, anyone can make the "big leap" to lasting happiness and success. So there it is, its title “The Big Leap” refers to that breakthrough and shift from ordinary to extraordinary. On a personal note, i like his methodology and strategy as it lends well to that of my own IRS (Interface Response System) which is a four step process that begins with identifying our self imposed limitations by way of how our brain has been persuaded and programmed by our MFTPSE (Mother, Father, Teacher, Preacher, Society and Evolution) - I reference the Big Leap in my upcoming book “Makes Sense” in the same way i reference the science of the Flow State and created the IRS after identifying a few missing pieces in these models that would still get people hung up. Important: I encourage you all to read these books or listen to them on Audible. My hope is that these short form synopsis's will awaken you to some great books to put on your list.

Stepping outside the box with star studded July and the uncertainty and potential for criticism is scary but necessary as we know where growth takes place Mentioned the idea of selfless and bigger mission supported service. Made me think about serving humanity and the kind of people I am looking for in my business. KELLY? FEEL THE FEAR AND DO IT ANYWAY? Why would you want to do that? What a nice Brand to be in service. The only person that doesn’t appreciate that brand is the one that is angry at themselves for not carrying it themselves. Hate you cause they ain't you. You’re either the kind of person that sees garbage discarded on the street and picks it up or the one that expects and assumes someone else will because you don’t feel it is your fault and insist that you are not a garbage man. I’m looking for 5 garbage men/women. To mentor, and partner with in my coaching business to change the world one person at a time. Isn't it interesting how God and the Universe have mysteriously placed everything we desire the most, inconveniently on the other side of a big smelly pile of shit? Notice this? We come up with anecdotes to acknowledge this as normal like the obstacle is the way. No mud, no lotus. Referencing the fact that the marvelous lotus flower ironically grows only in smelly mud. Heck, the amazing work done with the science of the FLOW STATE shows us that in order to get into your proverbial FLOW STATE you must first successfully navigate some sort of fear, challenge or struggle. If you really become aware of this phenomenon and learn to embrace the suck, you’ll begin to remodel your perspective, perception and relationship with struggle. Almost get excited when challenges arise, knowing that they are the precursor to your success. However, when you add the emotional component of FEAR to the equation, this acknowledgement becomes easier said than done. Our MFTPSE (Mother, Father, Teacher, Preacher, Society and Evolution have taught us how to navigate fear our whole lives. So if you are in a current reality where fear has a grip on you? And you are using that grip as an excuse to excuse you from your responsibility for your own success? It's not your fault. However, if you woke up this morning with the FIERCE URGENCY OF NOW to go out there and claim control of your life as its dominant force. To become the shotcaller of your days and start leveraging your success? It will require that you rewire your brain and develop a more efficient FEAR MANAGEMENT STRATEGY. Business owners and entrepreneurs may face a range of fears, including fears of failure, finances, and losing control. Allow yourself to acknowledge the double edged sword of your perspectives and perceptions of the following common fears being both barriers and motivators and know that the side you focus on is a choice you make based on your urgency to win.: Financial fears: Concerns about financial instability, not having enough money, or losing what they have. Fear of failure: A common fear that can also be a source of inspiration. Fear of losing control

I was curious if humans require another person to be IN LOVE or is it that person we have found or seek that allows you to express that which you already are? There is something called AGAPE LOVE? In the Bible, agape is a Greek word that describes a selfless, universal, and unconditional love that is characterized by self-sacrifice and loving others. It appears frequently in the New Testament, but rarely in other ancient Greek literature. The word comes from the verb agapan, which means "to greet with affection". However, it starts with loving yourself. I was exposed to a cool theory the other day that said that when two people are in love, that is just their souls hanging out with one another. Experiencing life freely with each other. In reading the book, Polishing the Mirror by Ram Das and diving deep into his work elsewhere, he speaks about the fact that if we strip away everything that we are seeking in life.
