Danny Cobbin
In this episode of Climbing the Summit, Danny explores how our experience of suffering—what yogic philosophy calls dukkha—arises not from external events, but from the thoughts and stories we attach to them. Drawing from the ancient wisdom of the Eight Limbs of Yoga, he reminds us that physical postures are only one step on a much deeper path toward self-realization. Through practices like pratyahara (sensory withdrawal) and meditation, we learn to train our focus and let the mental “sediment” settle, revealing the clarity that’s always been beneath the surface.
This episode invites listeners to look beyond ego (ahankara) and discover their own definition of success—not through striving, but through stillness and awareness.
In this episode of Climbing the Summit, host Danny Cobin unpacks the modern struggle of “revenge bedtime procrastination”—those late nights we steal for ourselves after long days of giving to others.
Drawing connections to the yogic concept of dukkha—suffering rooted in attachment—Danny explores how this behavior reveals deeper truths about desire, outcomes, and the human condition.
Blending Buddhist philosophy with practical reflection, he reminds us that suffering is inevitable, but beating ourselves up only adds to the weight we carry. Instead, Danny offers a path of grace: accepting where we are, loosening our grip on outcomes, and meeting ourselves with compassion.
In this episode, Danny explores the hidden skill we all share—the ability to zoom in and zoom out on life. Whether it’s getting lost in the micro-moments of a video game, bouncing on a trampoline, or adjusting to “sea legs” after a boat ride, our minds naturally shift between narrow focus and broad perspective. But what if we could practice that shift with intention?
Danny unpacks how to consciously manage your focus between the big picture and the present moment. You’ll learn how zooming in helps you fully engage with the people and tasks that matter most, while zooming out enables you to stay aware of the larger world without being consumed by it. With practical insights and relatable stories, this episode will help you recognize when it’s time to shift gears, find balance in your perspective, and deepen your appreciation for life—both in the details and the whole.
In this episode of the Climbing the Summit podcast, host Danny Cobin takes listeners on a journey through the seven chakras—each representing a unique layer of human experience, from physicality and desire to intuition and thought. Exploring both the ascending and descending flows of energy, Danny reveals how our thoughts shape our reality and how awareness can bring ease into everyday life.
Blending yogic wisdom with life coaching practices, he introduces a reflective exercise that invites you to view past struggles as if watching a movie—detached, observant, and compassionate. This shift into “witness consciousness” helps loosen the grip of old burdens, offering a lighter way forward on your path to self-discovery and success.
What if “success” isn’t a finish line but a summit only you can define?
This podcast invites you into a journey of self-discovery, insight, and presence—using the metaphor of climbing a mountain to explore what it really means to grow, evolve, and live authentically.
Through powerful storytelling and lessons drawn from the Three Principles and his time at Michael Neill’s Super Coach Academy, Danny shares how moments of clarity—those unexpected insights—can shift everything: your relationships, your parenting, your work, and your sense of self.
This isn’t about chasing someone else’s definition of success. It’s about learning to recognize your own. Together, we’ll explore:
- Consciousness & Perception – why life feels impossible at “low elevation” and effortless at “high altitude.”
- Insight & Personal Change – how sudden realizations can transform behavior without willpower or struggle.
- Self-Compassion & Presence – letting go of “should haves,” releasing self-judgment, and simply being where your feet are.
Whether you’re scaling your next peak or just finding your footing, this podcast is your basecamp for resilience, clarity, and personal transformation.
👉 Tune in and discover how to give yourself grace, stay present, and climb toward your own unique summit.
In this episode of Climbing the Summit, the invitation is simple: slow down.
Drawing from 40 years of life experience and over 20 years of parenting, the host reflects on how our thoughts shape the reality we live in. Through an honest story about navigating a tough conversation with a partner, he shows how easily emotions can cloud our judgment—and how clarity often arrives when we step back, give things time, and breathe.
At its core, this conversation is about the power of living in the present, recognizing how our thoughts influence every experience, and remembering that self-discovery isn’t a race. It’s a practice of pausing, noticing, and choosing authenticity over regret or worry.
If you’ve been moving too fast or carrying the weight of “what ifs,” this episode is a gentle reminder that growth doesn’t come from speeding up. It comes from slowing down enough to see what’s already here.
In this episode of Climbing the Summit, Danny takes you on a journey through the Three Principles—thought, consciousness, and the universal mind—as taught by Michael Neill and inspired by the life-changing insight of Syd Banks. With real-life examples, from morning commutes to the beauty of a butterfly, Danny reveals how our personal thinking shapes reality, how our level of consciousness changes what we see, and how the deeper mind is always at work behind the scenes.
You’ll discover why waking up each morning is an opportunity for growth—not by forcing it, but by simply being present. You’ll hear why mistakes are part of the game, how shifting focus away from the negative frees us, and why most of your day is already spent living, not worrying. This episode is an open invitation to feel comfortable in your own skin, to see the beauty in ordinary days, and to keep climbing toward the personal summit that is you.
In this episode, Danny invites listeners to take a fresh look at what counts as “progress.” For the overextended teacher or small business owner feeling like they’re never doing enough, this one’s a breath of fresh air.
What if a great day doesn’t have to be extraordinary? What if the simple, steady okay days are exactly where transformation begins?
Through a thoughtful story and powerful insight, Danny explores how acknowledging ordinary wins—like choosing rest over self-criticism or noticing a quiet moment of peace—can shift your entire experience. It’s not about striving harder, but seeing differently. By recognizing these small steps, anxiety softens, presence deepens, and life starts to feel more livable… and even joyful.
This episode is for anyone tired of chasing perfection and ready to feel more at home in their own journey.
In this heartfelt episode of Climbing the Summit, host Danny Cobin shares a powerful story about his son’s bike crash—and how that moment, raw and real, became a metaphor for life’s inevitable wipeouts.

You’ll hear about:
- Why emotions are meant to move through us—not be avoided.
- Hidden CostQuittingQuiet PowerThe hidden cost of quitting and the quiet power of returning.
- How imitation can be a great teacher—but authenticity is the true goal.
- The radical idea that there’s no “right way”—only your way, refined through experience.
- Why “falling” might be the most important part of your journey.
Whether you’re in the middle of a setback or afraid to start something new, this episode reminds you: it’s okay to fall. In fact, it’s necessary. Because the climb to your personal summit isn’t about doing it perfectly—it’s about doing it differently, with more heart, more wisdom, and more you.
“I hope you fall down, bro… because getting back up is where the magic is.”
In this deeply reflective episode of Climbing the Summit, host Danny Cobin invites listeners to return to the very beginning—the foundation of who we are—with an exploration of the root chakra, or Muladhara. Symbolized by the color red and connected to the earth element, the root chakra represents security, stability, and our connection to the physical world.
Danny shares his own journey of rediscovering the importance of feeling grounded, especially when life feels chaotic. From early childhood development to present-moment awareness, he weaves together ancient yogic wisdom, modern self-awareness, and heartfelt personal insight. Drawing on the chakra system as a rainbow bridge of energy, Danny reminds us that we can’t climb toward insight or enlightenment unless our roots are secure.
You’ll learn:
- How the root chakra connects to childhood development, survival needs, and emotional safety
- Why grounding practices like sitting in the grass or mindful breathing can restore balance
- What the ancient dance of Shiva and Shakti reveals about rooting before rising
- How being present in your body is often the most powerful act of transformation
Whether you’re new to the chakra system or looking to deepen your connection to your physical and emotional foundation, this episode offers a gentle, insightful invitation to return to base camp—and to begin again, from the ground up.
In this episode of Climbing the Summit, host Danny Cobin explores the transformative power of deep listening as a path to self-discovery and emotional clarity.
Drawing from personal stories and pop culture references like Star Wars, Danny unpacks the contrast between listening for answers and listening to understand.
He invites you to slow down, tune into your inner world, and examine your responses in real time.
This episode is a reminder that true power doesn’t come from controlling the outside world, but from mastering your presence within it
In this episode of Climbing the Summit, host Danny Cobbin explores how personal insight becomes a gateway to self-realization.
With clarity and compassion, he shares why our mistakes aren’t signs of failure, but invitations to learn, especially when we meet them with presence.
Danny dives into the cost of worry, the mental weight of replaying the past or forecasting the future, and why freedom begins in the now.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in your head, burdened by what was or what might be, this episode offers a breath of fresh air—and a reminder that the summit is reached one grounded step at a time.
In this episode of Climbing the Summit, we dive into how external circumstances can rattle our internal world—and why that’s not a problem. Through a candid story from a Hawaiian vacation, Danny reflects on the power of acknowledging emotions instead of burying them. Drawing wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita and the slow, steady growth of the bamboo tree, this conversation explores how to stay connected to your higher self, listen to your senses, and trust your inner knowing, even when things feel off. If you’ve ever wondered how mindfulness and intuition fit into real life, this one’s for you.
The show delves into profound concepts, such as the idea that "good, bad, right or wrong are after the fact", inviting listeners to notice the "beautiful experience that's happening" before judgment. Danny encourages listeners to embrace life's unpredictable "switchbacks," recognizing that the next step often reveals itself only when you arrive at it. A central theme is the importance of "slowing down and recognizing where we are in the moment" as the path to self-awareness. The podcast introduces the concept of "perfect thirst," taught by Danny's mentor Michael Neil, which highlights that "the water that you need is inside of you," encouraging listeners to look inward for what they need instead of externally."Climbing the Summit" also offers a unique view on the ego, suggesting that when "in the right space," our ego "is here to serve us," contrary to the common belief that it should be eliminated. It differentiates between fleeting "happiness," which is "after form" or tied to external conditions, and a more profound, more enduring "underlying joy" that exists before happiness. The podcast encourages finding this joy by "noticing" one's experiences and patterns. Ultimately, this podcast is not about providing direct advice, but about helping listeners realize "You're exactly where you need to be," and to find their way forward through self-awareness and grace, rather than self-recrimination.
The provided podcast transcript, "Climbing the Summit," emphasizes self-discovery and personal growth as ongoing journeys. The host, Danny, encourages listeners to focus on the present moment and let go of past regrets or future anxieties, asserting that many self-critical thoughts are not based in reality. He suggests two core takeaways: to question negative self-talk and to embrace the belief that one is inherently "good" despite challenges or desires for improvement. The discussion also touches on parenting, emphasizing providing children with emotional resilience rather than strict control.
In this episode, we sit down with Mimi—yoga studio owner, mother, and lifelong student of the practice—as she shares the story of how yoga became not just a physical outlet, but a transformative journey into self-healing and inner clarity. From navigating back pain in her early years to discovering the power of meditation and silence at an ashram, Mimi opens up about what it means to meet your edge, soften into your truth, and stay teachable in the face of life’s hardest moments. This conversation is a reminder that the mat is just the beginning, and the real practice is how we show up in our lives—one breath, one insight at a time.
The "Climbing the Summit" podcast features an interview with Mimi, a yoga studio owner, who shares her personal journey into motherhood and its profound impact on her understanding of self-discovery and personal growth. Mimi discusses how parenting became her greatest spiritual teacher, challenging her preconceived notions and highlighting the difference between theoretical knowledge and embodied understanding. She emphasizes the difficulty of breaking ingrained samskaras (imprints or habits) from childhood and the importance of creating new, healthier patterns, even when it feels uncomfortable. Mimi also recounts her struggle with prioritizing her children over her own well-being, ultimately realizing the necessity of self-care to be a more effective parent, much like monks who prioritize self-work before service. The episode concludes with Mimi's relocation from a cramped Los Angeles apartment to Colorado in pursuit of more living space, symbolizing her continued journey toward personal fulfillment.
In this deeply inspiring episode, we sit down with Mimi — yoga studio owner, mother, and third-generation Sivananda yogi — to explore her extraordinary path to healing and self-discovery.
At just 16, Mimi faced severe spinal degeneration that left her in chronic pain and feeling disconnected from her body. A breast reduction surgery led her to yoga, where she experienced a radical transformation: physically growing four inches, losing 80 pounds, and, more importantly, finding a profound sense of inner peace.
While the physical benefits drew her in, it was the mental clarity and emotional stability that kept her on the mat. Mimi shares how yoga became not just a practice but a way of life — a physical expression of her mental and spiritual journey.
She opens up about her time living at an ashram, her lineage to Swami Shivananda, and how a once-dreaded silent meditation retreat became a gateway to deep healing. From ego battles on the mat to finding grace in stillness, Mimi’s story is a moving reminder of what it means to listen, to learn, and to lead with an open heart.
We know what to do when our kids catch a cold — but what do we do when they lose their emotional footing?
This episode is about what it means to parent, teach, and love from the inside-out. Danny shares a tender moment from a weekend concert and how it reminded him of something timeless: you’re not broken — just human. If you've been trying too hard to fix everything, this one’s a reminder to soften, stay close, and trust the deeper intelligence at work in all of us.
This week, Danny opens up about a parenting moment that taught him more about love than any success ever could.
A subtle behavior from one of his kids showed up over the summer, and instead of falling into old patterns, he tried something new.
It's a story about presence, growth, and the real meaning of trying. Inspired by Michael Neill, Rob Bell, and the quiet wisdom of Star Wars.
In this final episode of our series with Levi Jacobs, we explore the raw and reflective terrain of fatherhood. Levi opens up about his favorite memory as a parent, the complexity of male bonding, and the emotional weight of being a dad on the road. We talk about the unspoken beauty of brotherhood, the challenges of presence in motion, and the metaphor of gifting a surfboard—not just to ride the ocean, but to navigate the waves of emotion.
Levi’s wisdom as a parent is deeply intertwined with his storytelling. If you’ve resonated with his voice, dive deeper into his worlds through his books:
📖 Daughter of Flood and Fury – A fierce, f/f epic fantasy about power, freedom, and identity (Book 1 of the Tidecaller Chronicles)
📖 Son of Storm and Silence – The second thrilling installment of the Tidecaller Chronicles
This conversation invites us to slow down, reflect, and remember that sometimes the best gift we can give our kids… is the ability to ride the storm.
In Part 3 of our ongoing conversation, Levi Jacobs returns to Climbing the Summit, revealing, revealing to reflect on how parenting becomes a mirror, revealing not just who our children are but also who we are when we’re under pressure, unsure, and wide open.
This episode dives into the vulnerable, often overlooked parts of raising kids: the slow moments, the daily frictions, the echoes of our own childhood—and how all of it can be a profound invitation to grow. Levi speaks candidly about the messy beauty of parenting, how it’s changed his relationship to time, and how the process of becoming a parent is really about learning how to be with yourself.
Tune in for a grounded, soulful conversation about grace, grit, and growth in the most human of classrooms.
In Part 2 of my conversation with author Levi Jacobs, we dive into a beautiful metaphor about discovery—both on the page and in life.
Levi shares how he builds his characters much like we find ourselves: picking up bits and pieces along the way, slowly assembling something real, something true. It’s a reminder that insights don’t always crash down like lightning. Sometimes, they are gathered—moment by moment, experience by experience—until suddenly, we see the shape of who we’re becoming.
Stay tuned for Part 3, where Levi explores how parenting, when seen as an iterative process rather than a fixed role, can accelerate both our own growth and the growth of our children—if we're willing to learn from the messy, beautiful journey of being human.
In this episode, I sit down with Levi Jacobs—epic fantasy author, world traveler, and self-proclaimed fruit seller—to explore his unconventional approach to meditation. For Levi, mindfulness doesn't require a cushion or incense; instead, it involves stepping outside, lighting a cigar, and immersing himself in the ritual. This practice becomes a moment of deep, active focus, allowing him to center his thoughts and find stillness amidst the chaos.
He's the author of the Tidecaller Chronicles, beginning with Daughter of Flood and Fury, a gripping tale of a girl born with forbidden magic in a world where monks and witches are mortal enemies. His stories often delve into themes of identity, power structures, and the courage to defy societal norms.
In this conversation, we delve into how Levi's meditation practice influences his creative process and how finding moments of stillness can lead to profound insights. He shares how these rituals help him navigate the complexities of storytelling and life itself.
Stay tuned for Part 2, where we discuss Levi's journey as a writer, his inspirations, and the worlds he's crafted in his novels.
Insight doesn’t have to be earned—it’s always available. Growth doesn’t have to be forced—it happens when we show up to life as we are.
This podcast is an invitation to explore how we already work: the quiet intelligence behind our best choices, the clarity that comes when we’re present, and the natural direction that reveals itself when we stop trying so hard to figure it all out.
You won’t find steps or strategies here.
Just reflections, stories, and conversations pointing you back to something simple and powerful—your own direct experience.
Don’t take my word for it.
Try it for yourself.
Progress doesn’t always come from pushing harder. Sometimes, it’s as simple as realizing that everything you need is already within you.
In this episode, we’re pointing to something deeper—something quieter. The idea that learning from others isn’t about gaining something new, but about waking up something inside you that’s been there all along.
When you begin to see that your experience of reality is shaped by your thoughts—both the ones you’re having right now and the ones you’ve accumulated about what life should mean—you also start to see that the unfolding of life isn’t happening to you... it’s happening through you.
If you’ve been feeling stuck, or searching for a way around the challenges you face, maybe the invitation isn’t to try harder—but to ease up on the mental gas pedal. To settle down inside. To create space for clear thinking to guide you in the moment.
Progress isn’t about perfection. It’s about allowing yourself to mess up, to learn, to grow—and still arrive.
Even if where you land looks different than where you thought you were headed… sometimes those unexpected turns are the most meaningful parts of the journey.
So try it on for yourself.
This is another honest, fireside-style conversation here at basecamp.
And just remember: you are all that you need.
No one’s coming to save you—because that person has been here the whole time.
flowsIn this episode, I sit down with my good friend Jason to finally capture one of the many conversations we’ve had over the years—the kind that flow and somehow always lead to something deeper.
We talked about what it’s like watching my son, Danny, learn how to ride a bike (yes, he still needs a bigger one) and how that experience mirrors the way we grow as adults—through insight, not force.
This conversation explores parenting, personal growth, and the quiet power of perspective. From shifting mindsets to the difference between investigating and simply seeing something new, we look at what it really means to live with more ease and clarity.
It’s reflective, honest, and full of those moments where something just… lands. We’re glad you’re here to listen in.

Growth is a journey full of ups and downs, and it's not always linear. Sometimes we experience setbacks or obstacles, but it's important to see these challenges as opportunities for learning and growth.
Having a clear understanding of ourselves can be very helpful in navigating through life's twists and turns. When we know our strengths and weaknesses, values, and goals, we can make better decisions that align with our true selves. This can help us stay focused and motivated even in the face of difficulties.
Self-awareness can also help us to recognize when we need to ask for help or support from others. It's important to acknowledge that we can't do everything alone and that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Overall, by embracing the twists and turns of life and developing a strong sense of self-awareness, we can navigate our journey with greater ease and confidence.

This podcast is for you if you have ever asked for something and received it years later. Life is more accessible than we think, and when you see your successes lined up in front of you, we humans have two choices. We can be upset about it, or we can keep moving forward. Why limit yourself to, what you think is possible when everything you currently have, you never thought was possible? I want to challenge the way you see your work! There is more good than you can imagine. I know because I am human and focused on the wrong things for a long time. But NO MORE.
I was scared of being committed, and this is my journey to finding me.
Commitment is for you! NOT them.
If all an unhealthy relationship needs to have a restart is love and understanding, what is possible for a relationship not requiring a reset?
I allowed myself to be the test subject, so you don't have to be.
Come to find out, if you pour on the gas, you really go all into having that good feeling with your partner or whoever you're in a relationship with. You will see a change in how you see things at some point.
And what else do we need other than a change in perspective?
I had no idea there were levels to a relationship, but upon reflection, there are.
I hope my journey down memory lane sparks something inside of you.
Today is a story of how I found clarity through a breakup. Not everything is a bed of roses, but once you start to see what you think is a problem, it is just what you think. My love and understanding grew by leaps and bounds.
The only reason to be in a relationship is to have a good feeling for that person. I chose to follow the good feeling, and I am forever changed because of it.
I used to think the change was supposed to happen overnight. But as I watch my children grow, I notice that change can, in my case, take 37 years.
This life thing is a whole mood. Change happens without us even noticing most of the time. When I saw that, I took my foot off the gas, thinking it had to all happen my way now.
We talk about having the heart of a child, but what does that mean? Does that mean that we should forsake work and go out and play all day, or does it mean something different altogether?
My son pee'ed at the bed twince, and his response changed how I see relationships with myself and others. I hope this helps you get that child-like spirit back again.
Have you ever wondered how you could control your emotions better? Yeah, me too; I struggled for the longest time with anger, thinking I would feel better by expressing my anger. But what happen was I started getting more and more upset about what happens when we keep thinking about something.
Check out the podcast, and let me know if this has been helpful for you in your relationships.
Today we talk about what a mood is. How do moods affect us in relationships? And how once you have a deeper understanding of your mood and how they are created. You can give yourself the grace to keep going in your life.
This is a great episode for anyone with colossal mood swings like I used to.
If you're not following but like this type of content, why not?
I used to think that when we had incompatibility issues, it was a sign the relationship was in trouble. But after finding out firsthand, relationships are based on feeling. If we have a good feeling, things usually work themselves out. And anytime we had crappy feelings, let's say it no longer meant its time to end things and move on.
Thank you for following along on the journey. Please follow for more related content.
I used to bully my relationship into a better space until I found a better way. Four years later, I reflect on 1 of the biggest secrets I learned about communication.
This is a concept that I first lived, then found the book that supported my finding. This podcast is from my own experience, and what I have started to see with the people I work with. A reset is always possible in your relationship... If you genuinely want it.
Session 3 of the DC360 Podcast is here. There will be shorter podcasts, that are directed at specific topics, that can be easily digested. Thank you again for listening, it means more than you know.
2022 - it's a year of endings and beginnings. Join me as I reflect on the events of my past, present, and future.

Sharyn Di Ubakdo was the most worried she had ever been. She had over 20 physician proscribed exccrisises to do with her baby daily, and she had no idea how to do any of them—especially taking care of herself. There was so much stress and unknown that she had difficulty enjoying her baby. She would look at her kid, and all she could think about was whether he would be okay. It was her life's darkest and most challenging time, and she did not see a way out. It was her worst nightmare playing itself out in real life.
But then something happened: Sharyn fell back in love with herself, her child, and her life. Her worst possible nightmare happened—and it didn't destroy her. Instead, it made her stronger than ever before! You will always figure it out; just trust yourself, parents!

Jason Berv is back! This time he's on the show to talk about relationships.
In case you don't remember, Jason blew me away with his insights into parenting—the way he sees the world is just so unique and really opened my eyes to a new perspective.
This time around, we talked about love. That's right: Love is all there is, plain and simple. And if you think what he said about parenting had some truth in it, well… you'll fall in love with him when it comes to how he loves his wife.
This episode is a must-listen-to if you are in any relationship—whether it's with your partner or your children or even your friends!
Here's the thing: kids are amazing.
I know, I know. You're probably thinking, "What is he talking about?" But hear me out.
When your kid is screaming at the top of their lungs for you to bring them a drink of water, it's hard to feel like you've made it as a parent. Especially when you think about how much time you've spent out in the sun with them, teaching them how to swim, go for hikes, and take care of themselves (and each other).
But here's what I've learned: kids are smart. They have their own way of communicating that works for them—and it works even if we adults don't always understand it.
That's why today I'm going to tell you something that may surprise you: my kids don't want me to stay outside longer than they need me to.
You see, they know they can handle this heat better than I can, so they want me to come inside when they need me there. And if they get tired or hot or thirsty or hungry? They'll let us know! We just have to listen—and then we'll be able to take care of whatever needs taking care of!
I went on my first ever 8-hour hike. I had no idea what to expect, and I was wildly underprepared. But I had insight after insight into the nature of being a human being, and it was all thanks to an unexpected friend.
I would love to know how this story hit you; don't hesitate to get in touch with me and let me know what you see for yourself.

Story time; Danny does not want to get ready to go to the store but wants to go. I handled it better than I ever did, but that did not make it perfect.
This one will be worth sharing.
I've been thinking a lot lately about the concept of "showing up."
Showing up, in parenting, seems like the only thing we can do. It's what we're called to do: show up for our children, no matter what. But it often gets clouded by our thoughts and judgments of the moment.
The moment we get out of our way—by noticing what comes up in these moments with our children—we start to show up for them and ourselves in entirely unexpected ways.

Parenting is a lot different than it was when we were kids. It's hard to describe just how much it's changed, but we can all agree that being a parent today is nothing like being a parent in the past.
We're not sure if that's good or bad, but we do know that it feels like parenting is more complicated than ever—and even though it may be exhausting and frustrating at times, there are still moments of joy and wonder that make it worth sticking with.
When Demi McConkie and I sat down to chat about raising kids, we talked about how important it is to slow down and listen to our children as much as possible. Demi helps leaders find their unique way of leading by helping them slow down and notice what's actually happening around them (and within themselves) so they can lead with confidence and authenticity. She also has two wonderful children who keep her on her toes!

Jason Shiers is a father that lost his home, the mother of his kids, and his business and found an effortless way of navigating thought to a more peaceful state of mind. He shares his ups and downs with us and how it all seemed okay.
Check out Jason's podcast Misunderstandings of the Mind.
Jason shares his story on how he went from being an unhappy person to someone who is happier than ever before. He talks about how he used to feel like life was unfair to him, but now he understands that it wasn't life that was unfair, it was himself. He realized that he was the one who made himself unhappy by thinking in a certain way and allowing negative thoughts to affect him.
The first thing we must know is parents; things will happen outside our control. That's ok, in the five keys to parenting. That means you are in the game.
The second step is to notice; both what comes up in you and what comes up within your child.
This one is a little harder than it sounds, but with practice it will come naturally. You'll be able to notice when your child is having a bad day, or when they're just ready for something new and exciting.
Give this one a listen to and notice if you start noticing more. Haha, see what I did there—noticing/ noticing.
Being a parent can be stressful and challenging at times. But the flip side of that same coin is that our children can be our most outstanding teachers. Life is a perspective game; if something feels off, take a moment to step away and come back fresh. We all know that, but dang it, I want to give you license not to know what's going to happen, and you to still show up as your best self more of the time.
We're going to talk about how parenting is like riding a roller coaster. Sometimes it's scary and exciting, but it can also keep your heart pounding for hours after you've left the ride.
We'll talk about how parenting teaches us what it means to be vulnerable and authentic in this crazy world we live in today where everyone wants instant gratification and no one wants to hear about your struggles or failures because they don't want their lives interrupted by someone else's problems.
And then we're going to talk about how parenting teaches us how much patience we have inside ourselves—how much compassion we have for others—and whether or not those things have always been there but are just coming out now because they've been pushed down deep inside us by years of fear-based thinking?
https://anchor.fm/danny-cobbin8/message
I'm going, to be honest with you: parenting is hard. But it doesn't have to be.
These days, I've learned one thing above all else: there is a difference between being a good parent and a parent who feels like they're doing a good job. The first one is easy; the second one can feel impossible. And I don't want that for you.
So here are five steps to effortless parenting that will make your life easier and your kid's life more fun:

The journey of life is a strange one, and we often find ourselves wondering where we are going. We tend to get stuck in the idea that we have to go this way and do this thing, but there is always space to go in any direction!

When we look at how things work, we have a better chance of optimizing their usefulness. Thinking you are broken is another way of discoursing yourself from climbing your mountain. Life is a journey, and the more we notice ourselves, the more we get to keep and take home for ourselves.
Think about it—when you go to the gym, there's always some kind of a weight-loss program that you can follow. Sure, it might help you achieve your goal of getting fit, but what if there was no program? What if you just went with your own strength and did what felt right?
It's the same thing with our lives. When we look at how things work, we have a better chance of optimizing their usefulness. Thinking you are broken is another way of discoursing yourself from climbing your mountain. Life is a journey, and the more we notice ourselves, the more we get to keep and take home for ourselves.

One of the most powerful things that I have discovered over the years is that my life will become exactly as I choose to make it. As a parent, I want to give my children the opportunity to create their own lives. While they are still young, I am trying to teach them how to live life on their own terms, and make choices that will help them be happy in the long run.
Meet Lea Maria Wernli, MA
Lea Wernli had it all: a wonderful family, a spacious flat with a stunning view of Zurich and a successful career as a special needs educator. But all she often felt was overwhelm and stress. She thought she was broken and did a lot to try and feel better. She ate a lot, drank a lot and shopped a lot. She got a lot of therapy and did a lot of energy work on herself. It helped some. But she was always looking over one shoulder, never sure if her big emotions and bad habits would overrun her again. Until she stumbled across the „3 Principles“and woke up to an entirely new understanding about life and how human beings work. It completely changed her life, improved her relationships with her kids and her husband. It also deeply impacted how she coaches and teaches. Today, she’s on a mission to share this understanding with everyone who wants to worry less and have a lot more fun in life or in business. She’s the co-founder of „Lea & Shailia“, a company dedicated to transforming lives through meaningful conversations, 1:1 and group coaching, professional coach training and mentoring.
Qualifications: MA in Special Needs Education, Certified Transformative Coach, Mentor Coach, Coach Trainer, Author of theBook „Less Worries – More Fun!“ (Weniger Sorgen – mehr Spass, in German)

Hey! Did you know that the creative process is a journey?
It's true. And I think it's one of the most magical journeys you can go on. But it's not just a physical journey—it's also an emotional one, and a mental one. You have to be willing to explore all parts of yourself in order for it to be truly fulfilling.
I've been on this journey for a long time, and I'm always looking for new people to share it with. If you want to join me on my next hike, we can chat about anything from art history to music theory to modern dance. Or if you just want to talk about what your favorite movie is or what book you're reading right now—that works too! Just let me know when and where, and we'll connect!
Today we talk about freedom from both positive and negative thinking. This is another chance to explore how things work. We don't control our hearts, lungs, or our bowel, but we think we have all the control when it comes to our thinking.
Freedom of control is when we have space from thinking we must control.
We can be free from the negative thoughts that come up in our mind. The same goes for positive thoughts that sometimes come up as well. If a negative thought comes up, we can just let it go and not react to it by saying anything out loud or even in our head.
The same goes for positive thoughts that come up in our mind; sometimes those are good too! But sometimes they aren't really positive and just seem to be positive because we want them to be so bad! When this happens, just let them go too! You don’t need them anymore!
Do you enjoy the process?
I'm not sure about you, but for a long time, I had a hard time enjoying the process. It seemed like the process was just a bunch of obstacles and pain points that were in the way of me getting what I wanted. But now that I know that's just how it works, I have found it easier to enjoy being a human being.
The worst part about running from the process is that it never ends! Every day, there's something else new to learn or something else that needs fixing—and sometimes those things can be a little painful or frustrating. But once you realize that this is just how life works, it becomes easier to keep moving forward and get through whatever's standing in your way.
Did you know that success could be effortless?
It seems like a bold statement, but it's true. Here's how: We've all been taught that hard work is the key to success. But what if I told you that was wrong? What if I said that there's a way to get things done faster and better with less work?
One unit of energy does not always equal one unit of reward. The misunderstanding leads us to do more and get less and less in return—diminishing returns. But there is a flip side; @michaelneillcatalyst calls it effortless success. Effortless success happens when we have fun and are all in on a project. It's when we're totally immersed in something we love doing so much, time just slips away from us without our noticing it at all.

So you're good at one thing. That's great!
But what if you could use that skill to show up in all of life?
Your zone of excellence is portable, and you can take it with you wherever you go. It doesn't matter if you're a writer, or an artist, or a musician—what if you could use the skillset that got you good at those things… to be a better parent? To have more fun? To make more money?
You don't have to limit yourself to what has already worked for you in the past—you can take your zone of excellence with you and apply it everywhere: In your relationships, at work, in your hobbies, and even in your free time.
Kids can say the craziest stuff, and it could wreck your world, depending on your perspective. If you are open-minded, you will love this natural approach vs. what we are generally told about how to show up in our children’s world. You're going to want to stay to the end of this one.
Coparenting is a way of getting to know your kids and an easy way of allowing them to grow into leaders while in a safe environment. All it takes is for us to enable our kids to lead.
Explore the come from and what it means to come from a space that allows your children to grow and thrive.
I did not know that parenting could be so triggering. If you get stressed out and feel like no one is around, you are not alone.
My parenting style has changed as I have come alive to how easy it is for me to get in my own way.
If I had one piece of advice for parents, you are ok, your kids are ok, and you will be ok. If you don’t think you are ok, that is ok too.
You are not alone.
We are all here to come together, to unfold as humans. If you are a parent, this may help you rest easier at night.
Who are you when you’re not trying to be like someone else? Here is an even better question for you, who are you when you’re not trying to impress yourself? What would you do if you could just do what shows up for you? This episode has opened up more questions than answers.
If you have questions or explanations, feel free to email me at dannycobbin@gmail.com

I was in a low mood and found myself in a good mood at the same time. Years ago, this would have been something I thought was utterly impossible. Somehow getting out of my head allowed me, Danny, to show up in what seemed like an almost effortless way.
Partenting and relationships can take it out of you, but this is a chance to take a step back and, take a look at what really makes the diffrence. Love is all around us, are we just to busy to see it?
I am not some guru here to teach you all the latest and greatest technics. I stopped using tips and tricks and started showing up in more moments in my life as myself.
As I talk about family, life, and being human, you can discover more about yourself. You could just as easily have a podcast that I listen to that helped me get the feel-goods. If you leave this podcast feeling better than you came, please share it with someone.
My daughter did not eat for three days, and I refused to take her to the doctor. They have something called the seven-day virus rule. It's because such a hot spot for us; I ended up sharting a little while making this episode. But as you loving humans know, life does not have to look pretty, as long as we get the job done, well.
I hope you enjoy this super short episode.
I miss the days where I had more time to lock myself in a dark closet with a bunch of audio tapes and hours to record really, really long segments of my voice telling funny stories. But those days are gone, lost forever to this newer, faster world that relies on technology to quickly spew out knowledge into the hands of anyone who will listen. That new technology is here, but it has also come with a price. People want to know… "how do I go from where I am now directly to WHEREVER I WANT TO GO?!" This video explores that journey and how we can't really leave off one chapter and pick up another even if we want to.

This is a raw and rare chat between Dave Shine and me recorded in person in Houston, Texas. Dave has a lot of cool nuggets of wisdom that I needed to tap into. I'm honored to have had this chance to catch this on tape. We cover a ton of ground: we talk about parenting, love, and lifestyle. This one is for the Explorer Mindset Warriors out there- the ones that want to venture forth and make a difference in a family and our children's lives.
The key to getting better at almost anything is to allow yourself to get better. It's not just about your performance. It's about the way you experience getting better. Some people like the idea of being the first one, or being great the first time out of the gate. Others don't care, they just like the process.
But, if you don't allow yourself to reap all the rewards and benefits of success because you know that it's not always going to go smoothly, then it doesn't matter if you go up there or not.
Riding the waves of the universe brings us clarity, illuminating the dark corners of our minds that blind us from taking action. Seeking within ourselves grants us access to our truest self, allowing us to make a change we might otherwise be afraid to.
What makes the difference is you. And that's what I would say to my younger self. The difference that makes the difference is you. Your passion, your imagination, your courage, your desire never to settle for less than you know you're capable of.
