Key Highlights

• We become our stories. We’re made up of stories. What does that mean? Listen in as Kindra breaks it down and shares a fun exercise you can do to see how many stories you’re made up of and how those stories have shaped you.

• Fear, especially fear of failure, often comes from the stories we’ve subconsciously held onto for our entire lives. This leads to inaction, stagnancy, and a lack of growth. How can we overcome this?

• If we look at what influences us, there might be a story behind why we’re influenced by those things… Listen in to hear Chase and Kindra’s thoughts on this intriguing phenomenon.

• Kindra speaks on whether or not we need to be mindful of how our stories passively influence others.

• If you’re struggling with the emotions from old stories and the struggle is keeping you stuck, ask yourself: Are there stories since that time that exhibit the characteristics that I want to become, that I’m working towards, or that I’m proud of? Show yourself the receipts to prove that you have evolved from those old stories.

Powerful Quotes by Kindra

Just as anything in the universe is made up of atoms, we as humans are made up of very small stories and those small stories can have a really big impact on the decisions we make, the things we feel are available or not available to us.

We don’t have control over the story itself, we only have control over our observance of that story as it unfolds and the actions that we take to see what happens next.

You will be your most powerful when you are very in touch with what you want and what feels powerful to you and not what you feel like you should be doing.

In today's episode, Chase and May talk about relationships, boundary setting, and healing. We will all encounter people in our lives that test our boundaries or share different values from us. On top of that, we are all constantly changing and healing, which can create friction in our relationships. You may love someone deeply, but if they cannot meet you where you are, it's hard to maintain a healthy dynamic. Ending relationships is not a failure, and it is okay to leave space in your heart for people while realizing they cannot be in your life right now.

May shares how she took stock of her relationships in order to identify what wasn't working for her. Furthermore, she discusses how she developed boundaries to protect her wellbeing and maintain a positive attitude toward others. 

Additionally, Chase and May discuss how healing is a continuous process. The two will discuss how their foundation of radical honesty and communication has enabled them to communicate where they are emotionally in order to know what to do individually to support each other, and when to focus on themselves alone.

Key Highlights

• May talks about what she calls, “the common denominator”- the idea that it helps to notice the patterns and trends in your life. May shares how she took inventory of her life and analyzed her relationships after feeling betrayed by people close to her.

• Chase and May talk about the importance of setting boundaries. May talks about how she tends to view all people as innately good and how she had to look at her life through a different lens in order to establish the boundaries with people and not get taken advantage of.

• It is normal for people in your life to serve different purposes, and one person cannot meet all your needs. May talks about managing her expectations for people and how she categorizes people now.

• It is okay to let go of people who are not serving you in your life. Chase and May talk about their views on setting boundaries, moving on from some people, even family, and their thoughts on divorce as a solution to relationship problems.

• Chase and May talk about their individual healing journeys and define what healing means to them. When does healing start, and what does it look like? How do you support yourself, your partner, and your joint relationship as each person heals and grows individually?

Powerful Quotes

Save space in your heart for people who don’t align with where you’re at at the moment. You can save space for them later on where they can kind of circle back and that space will always be there for them, but maybe right now you’re just not in the right place.

People serve different purposes in your life and people can change where they are in your life at different times in your life.

We are the main characters in our lives. Everyone else is the main character in their lives as well. 

Once you come into this world, you are forever in that process, when you’re in this life of finding your way back home, and part of that process of finding your way back home is that you’re healing all along the way. All of these learned experiences and behaviors and things that happened to you and at you and with you and for you, all along the way you are learning how to process all of that, and that processing of life, of just moving through the waves of life, is part of that healing.

Powerful Quotes by Stephanie and Jake

These mushrooms have been used for thousands of years in cultures all around the world… And only now, we’re starting to bring our Western science into it and doing the research and doing the studies and actually finding evidence for these things that different cultures have been saying for thousands of years.

As many as there are plants, there are mushrooms, so it’s like as if our culture is discovering plants for the first time.

By helping people be healthy and the best version of themselves, they can show up in life and for their communities as the best versions. It’s really exciting to be able to help people be healthy and happy and do that for ourselves and our communities.

Julian Jagtenberg is here to talk about the power of breathing, retraining the autonomic nervous system, and how to use your breath to feel calm, improve your sleep, and boost the quality of your physical, emotional, and mental health.

“You can go for weeks without food, days without water, but just a minute without breathing, yet we never learned how to breathe properly,” Julian says. It’s true! We’ve grown up unaware of the life-changing benefits we can reap from optimized breathing and high-quality sleep.

So, let’s gain that awareness. Right here, right now.

Powerful Quotes by Julian

Everyone, when it comes to sleep, focuses on those 8 hours at night, but where you can have an actual impact on sleep is during the day.

I can avoid my jet lag from happening, I’m more in my energy, which is so important doing what I do, and I tend to be less emotionally attached to the external events that happen to me because I always check in with my breath.

Technology might become the solution to help you to sleep, but we should be very mindful about which technology we use in the bedroom and which we have to keep out.

Chase invites Robert Sebastian to have an invigorating discussion about digital healthcare innovation and how we can improve the future of healthcare around the world. Robert sheds light on his company, Forward, and how they’re revolutionizing the healthcare industry to be more affordable, accessible, and affective.

Did you know that one in five dollars you spend in your lifetime will go to healthcare? “In addition to being incredibly low quality and expensive, healthcare is inaccessible to the majority of the world,” Robert says.

Robert Sebastian is a Co-Founder of Forward, a healthcare system combining world-class doctors with advanced technology to empower patients to take control of their health.

• Who is the ideal candidate for Forward healthcare? Does Forward work for older people that may need more regular or long-term care? How much does Forward cost? Tune in to find out!

Powerful Quotes by Robert 

The real problem is that healthcare today is fundamentally reactive. 

Inadequate, expensive healthcare is an issue beyond the United States. In fact, it’s much worse in some parts of the world. And so, our broader mission is to try to build the world’s first healthcare for billions of people, for free.

I feel a huge sort of obligation to try to help humanity come out a little bit better at the end of my life… Forward is a shot at making one of the most important systems in our life, healthcare, massively better.

Powerful Quotes by Amanda Bucci

People are full human beings with full experiences of life and the way that they’re experiencing their lives has everything to do with how they show up online… especially if it’s coming from a heart-centered space.

It’s helpful to be able to release yourself from the grips of identity so you can grow. 

You’re only as good as interpreting your intuition and your emotions as your mind can understand logic because there’s so much going on in our bodies that’s illogical.

• What is energetic alchemy? What does it mean to be the alchemist of your own life? Taylor breaks down what energetic alchemy is and how it can be used to transform your life into something new and more vibrant.

• Taylor expands on the powerful concept of spiritual bypassing and how to eliminate shame and guilt in your life by utilizing compassion and grace.

• She shares her candid thoughts on where most of us struggle in our emotional, vibrational journey and how to get your power back. “I do believe that people outsourcing their power is one of the main, if not the main, reasons why we are where we are,” Taylor says.

• There’s power and wisdom in being able to see and observe things without immediately going into a mindset of judgment. Taylor notes that whatever’s holding you back from seeing and expressing more love and worthiness is what needs to be healed. Remember, you’re not alone. We all have things we’re healing from and healing starts with bringing awareness to what needs to be healed.

• Taylor sheds light on her unique life story and what led her to practicing energetic alchemy, highlighting why she joined the Mormon church in her 20s and why she left. 

• Lastly, Taylor shares a few ways to communicate what you’re thinking and feeling (and the importance of expressing that) to someone else.

Powerful Quotes by Taylor Stone

You have to have the self-awareness and that mastery in order to use [alchemy] and utilize it for your greater good.

Giving yourself grace, and other people, is underutilized and I think when we do that, we have compassion for other people, everything changes.

When you can clear the fear and… come back to center, get grounded, then you can become resourceful and then, you actually have the insight and the inspiration and the clarity and the momentum of what to do next rather than… staying in the past.

Spirituality without self-mastery is delusion, it’s suffering, because if you don’t take accountability for what’s being taught to you, and essentially run with it, then you’re really doing yourself a disservice.

Powerful Quotes by Danielle Ryan Broida

Of course you’re stressed. Look what’s going on and look at what’s against you. And yet, there are allies… these are homies here to help us.

We can choose the right species for our body once we know our body and once we know the plant energetics. There is such a significant improvement in the benefits that that plant or mushroom has in the body when you have… done that correctly.

If we don’t have the resources or the ability or maybe the desire to bring something new into our diet, whether it’s an adaptogen or a new way of eating, we have breath that’s accessible to every single one of us at every moment and there’s so much power in a slight manipulation in the way that we breathe.

Powerful Quotes by Brian and Ryan

Chaga - that’s another one that, for me, having used it for a number of years now, I’m on the edge of 50 years old now and I still feel like I’m 25.

It’s a conscious way of doing business. It’s a new paradigm… transparency [and] sustainability are two really important pillars for us.

What is necessary now is functional medicine, functional food. It’s such a relevant factor in where we are in our evolutionary process and so, we’re just super stoked to be part of the movement.

Britt Frank is a trauma therapist and the author of The Science of Stuck: Breaking Through Inertia to Find Your Path Forward.

Today’s conversation centers largely on the topic of emotional regression: that all-too-common anxiety-inducing feeling that you are younger than your chronological age. Britt says that this is an issue that needs to be talked about more, because it can affect anybody regardless of their mental health status—even the most successful men and women in society.

Some signs of emotional regression? Indecisiveness, fear of making people angry, can’t say “no”, emotional explosions, wanting to be the “favorite” child/employee/friend, imposter syndrome, and many more.

Believing that “surviving childhood is trauma in and of itself,” Britt asserts that, “if you don’t grieve the fact that your childhood is over, you end up repeating it.”

At the same time, Britt notes that humans are a “sliding scale”, constantly swinging from equilibrium to one extreme to another and back again.

According to Britt, instead of trying to practice “self-regulation” all the time on one end, or being overly emotional and passionate on the other, we need to be willing to embrace a dynamic way of life. This way, we allow ourselves to consciously shift from one emotional state to each other, and from a state of high energy to a state of rest, acknowledging that how we feel is completely and utterly how our body wants us to feel in the moment.

Britt reminds us that “our brain is on our side”—that anxiety is simply a sign telling us that something needs to be addressed. This means allowing ourselves to grieve, as opposed to suppressing that grief, is what will ultimately lead to our healing.

Follow Britt @brittfrank

Follow Chase @chase_chewning

Key Highlights

• Britt breaks down the phenomenon of “emotional regression”: those excruciating moments—usually taking place around one’s parents—where one feels younger than their actual age, and why many of even the most successful individuals go through it.

• Like the titular character in Alice in Wonderland, emotional regression makes us feel too big one moment and too small the next: your “yes” was really a “no”; you feel guilty when you fail and guilty when you succeed; you feel like an imposter half the time and a narcissistic monster the other half.

• Britt describes emotional regression as a psychological longing for “home”—by extension defining homeostasis as feeling at home in your body, mind, and heart.

• Britt unpacks grief as it relates to emotional regression and lays out the four steps to healthy grieving. She also explains why she sees anxiety as a superpower that can help us get unstuck on our road to healing.

• You don’t need to wait until you’ve hit rock-bottom to change. Britt shares how you can start taking those baby steps to turn your life around today, and explains why feeling “fine” is far from fine.

Powerful Quotes

It’s very hard to feel your chronological age every second of every minute of every day. [...] Anytime you’re feeling smaller or younger or less powerful than your chronological age, that’s called “emotional regression”.

Our nervous systems, our brains, are not wired to be in a steady state. It drives me bananas when people sell self-regulation as the ultimate goal of wellness. You’re not supposed to be self-regulated all the time! [...] All of the things we want—passion, creativity, inspiration, success—are all on the edges of human experience.

Balance is not the goal. The goal is to be able to shift between states to know where you are on the roadmap and to feel like you have a choice rather than responding all the time to things flying at you.

Time does not heal all wounds. Doing the work of grieving heals all wounds.

Some people may have it worse, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have a right to your pain.

Society has changed, technology has changed, the way we work has changed, everything has changed! Change can feel overwhelming or confusing, but not if you know how to change with it.

Allow us to introduce you to the one and only, Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine, podcast host, author, startup advisor, keynote speaker, and “nonstop optimism machine”. Jason believes that change is inevitable, but thriving is up to you… and he’s here to tell you how.

In this discussion, Chase and Jason talk about the present and future of work, what’s changed in the workforce and entrepreneurship space over the past two years (since covid began), and how to create opportunities and innovation in your life and business.

Key Highlights

• The pandemic has caused many companies to restructure their organization and work flows. If we focused less how much time people are spending working and instead focused more on what they produce, we can start to create more flexibility in how people work together. 

• Efficiency is necessary, but it can be the death of innovation. Do you know what really killed Kodak? Facebook. 

• Every company needs someone (or a team) whose job is to come up with new opportunities. The best type of opportunity you can pursue is the opportunity that is available to you that nobody is asking you to do.

• How do ensure we’re moving forward in a direction of expansion? Tune in to hear a story from Jason that illustrates his answer.

• What is Jason’s billion dollar question he wants entrepreneurs to ask themselves? He dedicated a whole blank page in his new book for this question: What is it for?

• “It’s just so valuable for all of us if we can think about the cycle of change we’re in right now as the conscious cycle,” Jason says, “This is the one that you pay attention to, that you take notes on, that you have documented evidence… so that when you get through it… [and] the next time you go through it, you can look back and you can say… it’s gonna work out again.”

Powerful Quotes by Jason Feifer

If everything that you do is judged [on] whether or not it is perfect… you’ll never do a new thing because every new thing is going to be imperfect.

Something that I think confuses people and drives a lot of fear of change is that people feel like the new MUST wholesale replace the old.

I worked my job without knowing what the next job was. You can’t know what it is but I will tell you that if you don’t prepare yourself for it, then you’re never going to get it when the time comes.
