First off, Happy 4th of July and I hope you have a safe and happy holiday with family and friends.

Today's episode we have Jordan Bonifas back in studio to discuss feeling of worth/worthlessness and how to process these and allow space for acceptance around them, identifying values, having a vision, dreaming biug, playing full out and much more.

This was a deep episode and I got a ton out of it. If you did as well, reach out to Jordan and myself and let us know what you thought about it.

This is our 100th episode! I wanted to do something special for this episode and bring on a long time client and now a very dear friend of mine, Ethan, to share his story of what I would call an amazing transformation.

Ethan started as a client with me at Enlightened Athlete 4 years ago and has since undergone not only a massive physical transformation; but mental & emotional transformation as well.

Ethan is an amazing example of living the philosophy I talk about on this show, he lives the tenants of Get Uncomfortable. Trying new things, pushing to be better, not letting fear stop you, building a community, overcoming setbacks & taking control of your life.

I wanted to bring him on and have him share the growth and improvements he's seen in his life after stepping out of his comfort zone initially using fitness as a jump off point for massive growth in all areas of his life. 

You are going to learn a lot in this episode of how you can implement these strategies in your own life and start to level up in a massive way by getting uncomfortable. 

Until next time, go get uncomfortable.

Hello my friend!

I want this show to be a place where people are inspired to make their lives better and to build a local supportive community so they can rise  together.

Being more fit will improve your life on multiple levels. In ways you cannot yet see or truly understand, but the first step is to start.

I hope today's episode will help you get started.

This is part 1- lifting- & part 2 will cover cardio training specifics, blending the two together, and structuring workout cycles for longer periods of time instead of thinking of individual workouts.

Todays show is going to help you get your workouts organized the right way so you can start to actually get results and stop wasting your ever dwindling time on things that aren't helping you progress.

Hello my friend! I am back with first episode in a month and a half and i tell you what, it feels good to be back.

I decided it was time to take a break and re-center and move this show in a direction I was proud of. 

With that, I want to make this show a place where people can be inspired to make their lives better, to build a local supportive community so they can rise  together. 

That is the focus of today's episode, community. Where to find it, how to build it, how to prepare yourself to be ready when you do find it.

I hope you enjoy the show and I truly want to say thank you for listening in and being a member of the Get Uncomfortable community.

If you want to fail on your weight loss journey or stay stuck where you're at, try to change everything all at once and burn out fast. Best way to stay fat. 

Focus on changing everything all at once and then give up shortly after due to overwhelm and fatigue. 

There's a better way to do it friends, and that is to pick ONE thing and get really consistent with that one habit change. Create little wins and set yourself up with momentum.

The large majority of people who succeed on their weight loss journey are those who can get consistent with one health habit at a time and build/add new ones with the new skills they've gained.

Send this episode to a friend or family member who has been struggling to identify their issue and want to get better. Someone who wants to make progress but is stuck.

Winners and loser have the same goals. Think about it. 

Any person who wants to be rich will start with the same goal of; becoming rich. The difference is winners use different habits and overall systems to actually get there. While the losers keep spending time in martyrdom and coming up with excuses why shit didn't work out for them and fail to adopt new actions.

So yes set goals, but focus on your habits and systems that you partake in consistently to get ahead. Then be sure to TAKE ACTION everyday. Actually do the thing you need to do.

Today's episode is with my brother Landon and we covered topics far and wide. There's some pretty powerful tips in this episode surrounding training for martial arts specifically, the importance of physical training for your mental health, thinking for yourself and forming your own opinions, and recognizing propaganda in the media.

This was a new style of show where we came in with no topic ideas and just hit record. It was a really interesting conversation and we covered A LOT of ground. Enjoy the show!

Today we talk about how to change your perspective to better solve problems in your life instead of playing the victim and accepting defeat immediately.

This is a powerful shift in your mentality that will help you come up with creative solutions and allow you to continue moving forward.

I talk about how I use float tanks to help me in this process and create some clarity and space to allow for creativity and solutions.

Today I discuss the difficult process of diving into your shadow, the part or parts of yourself you avoid or are disconnected from.  Things you avoid to recognize or feel at all.

This process can be extremely scary and uncomfortable by done correctly, extremely cathartic.

I hope you enjoy the episode and dive into your shadow self a little deeper.

Today we discuss common characteristics of people who successfully lose weight meaning; they lose it and keep it off without massive regain. 

Before that though I though it would be useful to describe Maslow's four stages of competence when learning a new skill so you understand what the process looks like when embarking on a new skill. 

They are as follows:
1. Unconscious incompetence 
2. Conscious incompetence 
3. Conscious competence 
4. Unconscious competence 

These are the stages you will go through while trying to learn how to adhere to a diet or changing your habits. Listen in to the episode for more details.

I hope you enjoyed this episode and if you did share it with one other person in your life who would find it useful.

Today my youngest brother, Landon, joins me on Get Uncomfortable to talk about how the struggles, the process of life itself is the real gift, not just the achievement of a goal.

We discussed a video series by Martijn Doolaard where he builds cabins in the Italian alps. I was able to pull out some insights about myself just from watching these videos and then we dove deeper into how basically anything in life can be a teacher if you're open to it.

This was a really fun conversation to have and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Do you check the scale everyday with fear and then feel like shit when it doesn’t say what you hoped for?

 I have 2 tips for you if you can’t seem to lose those last 10-15 pounds, and it’s driving you nuts. 

Here’s the first thing you need to do.  STOP worrying about that shit. It’s stressing you out and making you frustrated and pushing you towards giving up.

Quitting is not going to help move you forward. It’s going to put you back at square one again. Day one. Back to no progress. Sound fun? I didn’t think so…

Instead refocus on all the progress you’ve already made. Maybe you are sleeping better. Your clothes fit differently. You learned to cook. You set the example for your family on HEALTH (not JUST weight loss)

Find positive things to focus on instead of just that fuc*ing scale!

#2 - Focus on your DAILY actions and habits. That’s what you can control. You can’t control what the scale says everyday (water retention, sleep amount & quality, hormonal changes, stress, time of day, etc influence this.)

Find ONE thing each day you can do to move yourself forward. Act as if the scale didn't exist and do the right shit you know you need to do… Some ideas:

1.Eat protein at every meal
2. Get 10,000 steps everyday this week.
3. Drink “x” oz’s of water every day this week.
4. Get 8 hours of sleep
5. No soda this week

You get the idea. Refocus on what you can control and nail healthy habits, those are what will lead you to the promised land after you do them consistently.

I hope this helps you continue creating massive transformation in your life!

Until next time, go get uncomfortable.

I was lucky enough to sit down with Megan & have an in depth discussion about her experience in the medical field as an RN, how she feels patients may be getting let down by the medical industry as it stands today, and why she chose to completely leave the field to pursue nutrition coaching through the 1st Phorm app.

In addition to completely changing her career so she could feel she was making a lasting positive impact in the lives of those she worked with; she also went on an amazing healthy journey of her own. She was able to lose 70lbs. and keep it off through lifestyle change, grit, and discipline!

Megan's story is one that aligns perfectly with the decisions we advocate for here at Enlightened Athlete & Get Uncomfortable so I know you guys will love this conversation.

Today I wanted to discuss one the most prevalent gateway drugs plaguing America today, but one that is thought to be mostly benevolent. Highly Processed JUNK FOOD.

Look, I know it sounds crazy but for shits sake, look at the state of the average American citizen's health. We are constantly bombarded with bright colors, fun characters, commercials, billboards, emails, and more all reminding you to snag some shitty junk food to keep your brain operating at a snails pace and keep you fat and complacent.

It is absolutely an organized effort to keep you on the tit of the corporations and it's up to you as an individual to make better decisions for your family.

I broke down some really scary statistics in this episode as well to illustrate the bleak state of America's health.

I hope this help or brings to light how serious this issue will become in the near future.

Today we have Kayla Keep in Studio to break down what Orofacial Myofuntional therapy is all about and how it can help the lives of children and their parents.

The range of issues associated with improper tongue posture, restricted airways and all other things orocfacial was shocking to me when she broke them all down.

We covered why it's so important to breathe through your nose and stop mouth breathing, why some kids are picky eaters and how to help with that, changing the facial structure and form of the facial muscles which drastically changes the appearance of someones profile and much much more.

This was such a great conversation and I learned a ton and I know you will too.

I'm starting a December cold water exposure challenge and I hope you'll join me in this. It's a fantastic way to level up your health, mood, stress tolerance, and life overall.

The point of the cold exposure challenge I presented last week is to help you and I build the skill of doing something we don't want to do everyday. It teaches you how to become a machine and overcome feelings of laziness or despair. You just do it. No matter what is going on.

That's one of the most valuable skills I've ever learned and I still try to build and strengthen it regularly.

If you found value in today's show, share it out for me.
