In this episode, Ryan talks with Mark Divine - Entrepreneur, New York Times best-selling author, philanthropist, and one of the world’s top leadership and coaching experts about the power of being a yoga and mediation practitioner.

They discuss:

• The powerful and outer results that come from consistently doing the inner work.
• Mark shares how as a special operator having a seated meditation practice was more difficult so he began to find ways to integrate his practice into his daily activities.
• Mark shares how mediation transformed his life and how his personal practice has been the guiding force to find clarity and next steps in his life and business.
• How you can reframe failure as redirection and the understanding that when you truly align with your calling, the only time it's difficult is when you are misaligned or off the path.
• You can have all of the vision and plans but you must be able to allow the thing to flow effortlessly, rather than constantly pushing. This takes being able to master the non-action side of action starts with being able to overcome the inertia of your mind.
