Mental fatigue is real. We live in a world where we have to make a thousand good decisions each day, and we’re expected to be highly creative at our jobs. That’s why it’s critical to learn how to optimize our brains to function well in this reality. Our guest today, Dr. Mithu Storoni, is here to give us some science-back tactics.

The American Dream is still alive and well, and Mark Matson wants to make sure everybody knows it. Mark joins us on the show to talk about his new book, “Experiencing the American Dream: How to Invest Your Time, Energy and Money to Create an Extraordinary Life.” Mark states that schools are promoting victimhood and entitlement, rather than hard work. He warns about seeing money as an evil thing, giving the example of his grandfather remaining poor his whole life because he held this view. He explains the American Dream is not an amount of money in your bank account, but rather a mindset about freedom that doesn’t exist in many other countries. Mark also gives us a bit of investment advice regarding the S&P, Bitcoin, and even DraftKings. So be sure to stay tuned until the end!

Push it down and power through. That’s how many of us have become high-achievers. But that’s also how many of us have developed physical and emotional unwellness. Our guests on the show today explain how to reconnect with our bodies to achieve more for internal selves. Today we’re joined by Jennifer Mann and Karden Rabin, co-authors of “The Secret Language of the Body.” They tell us their personal journeys of being high-achievers, but struggling with fatigue and illness, to being happy, healthier individuals. The key, they share, is tuning into the secret language of the body. The secret language of the body is sensations, emotions, behaviors, postures, movements, gestures, etc. Jennifer and Karden encourage us to bring awareness to that language, interrupt our typical negative response to it, and redesign a new response. Taking the responsibility to redesign our response is hard, they admit, but it opens up so many beautiful, powerful possibilities.

Your company culture should not be designed around what generation your workers come from. It should not rely on being physically present in the office. The number one value and practice of your culture should be adaptability. Dr. Jessica Kriegel joins us today to explain how the data shows adaptable company cultures are the best performing ones. What many people mistake for generational differences are actually life stage differences. Baby Boomers were a lot like Gen Z when they too were in their twenties. Yes, technology has increased transparency and expectations, and it has even changed where we physically work, but fundamentally we are the same across generations. Dr. Jessica Kriegel explains how scientists at Stanford analyzed decades of data, finding only one single culture that made a difference in revenue results. In fact, it makes a 4x difference. That culture is the culture of adaptability. She walks us through how to transform your company culture into one of adaptability.

Matt is the CEO and Co-Founder of Clockwise, a very popular calendar tool that's unlocked over six million hours of focus time for employees and resolved four million meeting conflicts.

Most people overestimate their ability to read people’s personalities. This leads to hiring the wrong people for the wrong roles, managing people in the wrong ways, and overall just making life harder for everyone.

Richard gives us an overview of his book, “Good Judgment: Making Better Business Decisions with the Science of Human Personality.” He describes the five boxes that make up a personality blueprint: Intellect, sociability, emotionality, drive, and diligence.

If you don’t know your core values, you can end up being wildly successful, but miserable. If you don’t know your team members’ core values, they’re probably going to leave. Today, our colleague Mark Donohue, joins us to talk about what core values are and how to discover them. We talk about how core values are factual, not aspirational. They aren’t what you aspire to be, but who you are at your core right now.

When Dr. James Doty was a kid growing up in tough circumstances, he happened into a magic store and met a woman who taught him the manifestation technique. He tells that story in his wildly popular first book, “Into the Magic Shop.” Today, James joins us to tell us about his new book, “Mind Magic” which covers what happened after he manifested everything he thought he wanted. As an adult, James’ manifestation of beautiful homes, cars, and life of riches came true. He was a successful neurosurgeon, jetsetting across the world. But he was miserable. After losing millions in the dot com crash, he sat down and rethought his manifestations. In his new book, James explains that through this process of reflection, he realized that manifestation without compassion for others leads to unhappiness. He digs into the neuroscience behind this phenomenon, and shares the lessons he’s learned.

Well, for starters, Guy Kawasaki has had in-depth, one-on-one conversations with each of them, and hundreds of successful people like them. But, as Guy writes about in his new book, what they truly have in common is similar paths to being remarkable. Guy Kawasaki joins us on the show today to tell us about his newest book, “Think Remarkable: Nine Paths to Transform Your Life and Make a Difference.” He’s taken 250 hours of interviews with incredible individuals on his podcast, “Remarkable People,” and distilled them into one book. Rather than list out every interview one, by one, he’s identified the nine common paths that run through each one. In today’s episode, Guy tells us about those paths, and weaves in his own hilarious, personal stories. And he has plenty of stories: He’s been the Chief Evangelist of Apple, trustee of the Wikimedia Foundation, special assistant to the Motorola division of Google, and much more. Guy’s wisdom and insights are a delight. Take a listen!

Are you lying to yourself? There are lies we tell ourselves all the time that trip us up. They’re little things we whisper in our own ear that we think will help us be productive, build good habits, or grow our business, but they don’t. In this episode, we’re going to go over the most common lies that mislead and derail us. The list includes things like “Oh I’ll just multitask and get these things done quicker” or “I’ll just rely on willpower in the moment.” Those are statements that only lead to struggles and failure later. Don’t use them to plan your day, much less your life. We talk frankly about prioritization, focus, discipline, willpower, and work-life balance. We give you the truth to counteract those little lies. Tune in and learn what to tell yourself next time you’re tempted to mislead yourself. Want to channel your discipline to build habits, rather than trying to solely rely on limited willpower?

You’ve probably heard of the fixed vs. growth mindset. But did you know it applies to whole organizations, not just individual people? And, just like with individuals, there are certain things you can do to change, improve, and support an organization’s mindset. Today, Dr. Mary C. Murphy, a protege of Carol Dweck and an esteemed psychology researcher in her own right, takes us through her newest book, “Cultures of Growth.” Business organizations are full of mindset triggers– situations that shift individuals’ mindset to be more fixed-oriented than growth-oriented. Evaluations, high effort assignments, and feedback can easily create fixed mindset thoughts of “I’m terrible” or “I’m great” instead of “What can I continue to get better.” Dr. Murphy discusses how leaders, and even non-leaders, can purposefully frame these situations to prevent a slide into a fixed-mindset and create an overall culture that supports growth mindsets. This episode is jam-packed with neuroscience research, actionable tips, and “aha” moments. Dr. Murphy really puts on a masterclass for us. We hope you get as much out of it as we did. Check out Dr. Mary C. Murphy’s book, "Cultures of Growth," today. In a world where success seems reserved for a chosen few, Cultures of Growth unveils a radically different approach to creating organizations that inspire learning, growth, and success at all levels. *** Looking to start your next big thing?
