So Bob is out of town, and Lee decided to do a classic rewind of an important podcast. With one of two amazing episodes; this is from September 1, 2021, called The Body-Based Approach to Happiness, Health, and Well-being.
In our modern society, we put too much emphasis on our minds, thoughts, and feelings. The problem with this is your mind is just a fraction of your total experience of life.
In fact, your whole body is a brain. And I can prove it. Pinch your finger right now and you’ll experience pain signals shooting up to your brain.
Yet, when it comes to emotional baggage, trauma, addictions, and other mental ailments, we forget about the body and hyperfocus on the mind.
If you want to permanently free yourself from these mental diseases, you have to first start in your body. Ancient cultures from all over the world knew how to do this. But we forgot how to do it in our modern world.
In this episode, I’m revealing how a body-based approach to happiness, health, and well-being is more effective than any therapist could hope to be. Listen now.
Show highlights include:
- The strange way laws prevent therapists from helping you as much as they could (4:09)
- Why therapy and counseling can only help a fraction of your mental health problems (even if it feels like they’re working) (14:33)
- How chanting mantras can actually make your anxiety, depression, and even schizophrenia subside (17:11)
- Why using your body is the single best way to eliminate all your mental and emotional baggage forever (19:32)
- How to teach your body freedom so you can erase mental health problems, addictions, and even chronic pain from your life (28:38)

Not everything is purely psychological. The biology of a person has a lot to do with their emotions, their thoughts and their moods. So, connection the biology to the psychology can be a key experience to letting go of trauma and addiction.
Highlights:
- I’m taking my years and years of experience understanding how the mind and body are intertwined, to bring the mind and the body together too un-stitch all of the quilted patterns of misery that people have stitched to themselves over the course of their lives. (12:50)
- There’s nothing wrong with allowing breath work to happen, but why not let it happen on purpose? Why not be deliberate with how you use the breath? (14:05)
- I hold people in this spot, teetering on the edge of play and challenge and discomfort, back and forth to where they can’t keep holding on to their old reasons to suffer. And somewhere in the middle of it, the magic happens. (27:05)
- The key understanding is that people’s thoughts and feelings come from their biology. (33:50)

Recovery shouldn’t take forever. There’s no reason for you to be an addict, or a recovering addict, for a majority of your life. Today we’re gonna talk about that a little more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- If you are not able to live a life free of that thing, and happy, and more capable than you were before, then it doesn’t deserve the title of a rehab center. (4:00)
- I’ve often compared it to being chased by a rabid dog; you always have to stay one step ahead and you can’t stop. (6:55)
- If it takes 30 years to overcome something that can happen in days, weeks, or months, then whoever’s running that program, doesn’t have a clue about it. (11:20)
- How closely have you paid attention to the small things, and how well have you trained yourself to recover. (14:20)

Knowing that there are more than the 5 senses you were taught throughout your childhood, let’s talk about another one. Today we’re going to talk about the sense of self. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Humans use a sense of self as a way to navigate the world of society and as a way of motivating ourselves. (9:00)
- We talk about ourselves as if that’s who we are all the time, but really, that’s something that is altered. (13:25)
- That self is whatever I’ve identified as me. It has to do with experiences I’ve collected, or had powerful emotional responses to, or the things that have felt “important”. (18:45)
- This search for who you are, is what a lot of people are on. (27:05)

We live in such an immense world. The belief that humans are a superior race and are built to rule all is not true just because we’ve invaded everything. Today we’ll talk more about what’s going on in not our world, and what we’re missing. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- We are so dependent on our eyes, We are so dependent on our eyes because they are the most delicate of our senses. (4:00)
- Across the board, humans aren’t really doing much difference, except in terms of quality. (13:20)
- There is something that we’re calling life that is massively varied, all of which is experiencing itself in a variety of ways that we humans can’t even understand and yet we have the hubris to believe that we are the reason for all of it and that we are more important and better than the rest of it when there’s so many places where we fall short and so many things we do not see. (15:30)
- There’s so much that we don’t understand about reality, so much that we are missing because our senses are set up to help our species survive the way that this species does. (18:05)

Today, we’re going to think about what’s really going on when you tell somebody that your day was good, or when you feel sad. Although it might seem like just a simple feeling, there’s more to it than that. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- They were creating stories about how they were marred when in reality they weren’t, and that goes back to, what are we creating with our own thoughts. (11:50)
- These experiences are built out of a brain that’s just pulling information from the body that it happens to be sitting in. (14:25)
- It’s a lot easier to live in a world where you already know what’s going on. (35:25)
- Emotions are not a reflection reality at all, it is your brain’s best guess about how it should respond to the situation. (37:45)

Lee had the question; what is a human? A big bundle of nerves and tissue or some higher and wiser being on this planet? Today we’ll talk more about it. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- From the very beginning, human cells are bejng supported by bacteria. (14:15)
- People are too busy saying we are meant to dominate nature, when really, we are at the mercy of nature the entire time.k (14:45)
- A human is never existent without the environment it’s in. (18:20)
- If we hold our body in such a way that doesn’t make viruses and bacteria the enemy, what could be possible? (30:00)
- Human is a category, but what does it mean to be you? (37:00)

Today we’re talking a little about an experience we had with the human nervous system. Maybe we’ll get on somebody’s nerves a little, maybe not. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- This whole collection of nerves is providing your human experience. (4:15)
- Even as he’s dead, he treats him with the utmost respect. (13:00)
- The identification of one’s self with the body, on one level, creates a possibility for experience, but on another level, it creates a trap inside that experience. (29:30)
- The whole nervous system was almost mapped out like a tree. (31:30)

With all the clamoring voices declaring the latest health fads and superfoods, so many of which seem to be in contradiction to each other, how is one to know what to do? Do we follow the simple advice of Michael Pollan (Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.)? Or do we micro measure every morsel for optimum productivity and neurological function? Lots to discuss, and, as always, with an eye to making things simpler. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Nowadays you can walk into almost anywhere and see the teenagers have all the signs of being youthful, but there’s something off with their physique. (5:50)
- There are a lot of experts today that claim to know what health is. But when I step back and look at it, it just seems to be that what we’re claiming health is, is really distorted. (9:25)
- People define freedom as the ability to do whatever you want to do, but I’ve suggested the following definition; that freedom is the ability to not do what you don’t want to do. (21:29)
- It doesn’t have so much to do with your genetics, but the way you learned to eat. So if you change the way you eat, you can actually change what the outcomes are. (32:55)

With the crazy season upon us, don’t let that be something to take the happiness away. So many people feel they have more responsibility and expectations on them because of the chaos of holidays. Today we’ll talk about that more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Everybody has expectations for a holiday when they don’t have expectations for an average Tuesday. (2:50)
- With traditions, is this the kind of experience that you want to have, or are you just putting yourself on autopilot and trying to knuckle through the holiday? (8:25)
- It’s almost like saying, “take a holiday from the holiday”. (27:30)
- The holidays are a chance for everyone to catch their breath, not just one person. (31:25)

I periodically get people asking me if we do couples' counseling. While we have worked with a number of couples, it's usually one at a time. So I decided to bring on a guest whose approach to bringing what she calls "everyday eroticism" into a marriage that still has to wash the dishes and get the kids off to school, might just be what turns the tides for you. Alexandra Stockwell, MD, is an author, physician, and personal coach turned relationship guide and is here to share her wisdom. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Understanding gives you enough framework to feel safe to have different experiences. (6:55)
- People don’t honor the “I just knew” piece enough. It’s a feeling in your system, it’s not an intellectual problem with a person, it’s the only thing your body could make sense of. (8:45)
- You have no chance of creating what you want if you don’t know what you want. (23:00)
- I think the way to be human is to eliminate the taboo as much as we can and be integrated with all the elements that we get to express in a marriage. (47:10)

Fasting isn't the hungry problem that I always thought it was growing up. Although the hunger may set in at some point, it isn't a "no pain, no gain" situation.
Today, we'll talk about that more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Even though I felt great, there was nothing to show a breakthrough. (11:30)
- What if fasting is a gift to my body to finally allow it to go through its full cycle? (14:40)
- Everybody’s talking about a painful death, but your body is designed to make that not happen, if at all possible. (17:50)
- If you give somebody a promise of something that they haven’t experienced, they’ll make believe what those words mean without realizing that those words connect to something already in their experience. (40:20)

What is faith? Inside of all the confusing definitions, descriptions and depictions, let’s look at faith as focus. Let’s see faith as where you put your attention.
Today, we’ll talk about that a little more. Have a listen
Highlights:
- People ask where is god in this and the response is where do you want him to be in this? Let him be everywhere. Why does he need to be in one little pocket. (2:00)
- If your focus shifts, that doesn’t mean you lack faith, it just means that you’re interested in something else and your focus has shifted. (10:20)
- My focus was, I want to live a full life. The life that I feel in my bones that I came here to live. And if I put my focus there, unwavering, what might happen? (15:00)
- If you don’t train your brain to focus on the things that matter to you and that build life and vitality, then how is your body going to know to do that on autopilot? (16:45)

Throughout the years, the biggest ingredient I've found that determines whether a person finds freedom or not is what I'll call "commitment". Not commitment in the sense of making promises, but a drive to "make this work".
That drive is what led me to my own freedom. It's not the only ingredient, but definitely one of the biggest players. So let's look at it. Could it possibly be that the main reason we fail is because we are more committed to our story, our comforts, our victimhood, our traumas, our triggers, our diagnoses, and our pains than we are to creating a life of freedom? Could that be the real obstacle?
Have a listen.
Highlights:
- I just admit that I cannot do for somebody, what only they can do for themselves. (10:10)
- To put MD after your name, makes people automatically assume that you’re an expert on the subject that you’re teaching. Even if that’s not the case. (14:00)
- The experience we’re giving is also transmitting how to live a good life from your previous one. (32:40)
- Are you willing to embrace that your feelings and thoughts could have been wrong because you’re finally more committed to letting go of the pain, than being right? (36:50)

Here comes the second half of Amber’s inside look at what really happens inside a good rehab center. This time, we’ll also discuss what else might help.
Highlights:
- Your life was built to be you. A unique expression of life on this planet that has never been here before and never will be again. (4:00)
- Most people struggle not because they’re stupid and don’t understand something, but because the rest of their body hasn’t gotten it yet. (19:30)
- When you’re taking a medication, you’re inserting chemistry into your body to force that chemistry into a different space. (20:30)
- The people that are the lowest on the totem pole, they start going to other places for help. It’s drinks and drugs and pornography and when they’re beaten down from that, they’ll find somebody else who will lift them up and in those places they’re being molded until they almost form a different breed of human. (29:15)

Amber joins us today for an insider's look at what really goes on at a rehab center. From the schedule, to the therapy, to the classes, there’s lots to talk about, including why the success rates are as low as they are across the board and what can be done to turn that around. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- So alcohol became an escape, and at a certain point it became a catastrophe. (6:40)
- Why is it called recreational therapy, why not just play? (17:25)
- The thing I’ll say is that therapy got me through. It didn’t get me over my troubles, but it got me through. (31:10)
- Everything that you encounter in your life is going to change the function and neurology and synaptic patterns and everything else going on inside you. Pinning that on addiction only is a bit dishonest. (39:35)
- I’m not worried about sobriety. Only addicts are worried about sobriety. I’m a human being. (44:25)

Over the time that I have been building and running my business, there have been a good number of arguments made against me and why anything I do won't work. So, today we'll just run over a few of them. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Therapists consider it unethical to get peoples hopes up and say that it’s possible to get over depression and anxiety without medication. (7:25)
- People argue that I’m not a licensed therapist and I say, I know. Thats why I can do what I do. (10:10)
- Doctors are too busy labeling what’s happening instead of seeing what’s there. (29:35)
- There’s things that we can do with stuff that we can see, taste, touch and smell. There’s nothing we can do with a theory. As soon as you believe that theory is real, then it’s a fight against a phantom. (31:20)

Today lets talk about your bag of tricks. All these little tips and tricks that are available at anytime because they come from you. Go ahead, have a listen.
Highlights:
- When people take bits and pieces from other material, sometimes they’re cobbling all the little pieces together and in the end they don’t get to enjoy that it’s not just a puzzle, but a picture also. (4:00)
- When you’re in the here and now, you do not experience anxiety. Anxiety is a future oriented thing. (7:10)
- Being so focused on doing something right means not just doing the thing. Doing something right is not doing the thing. (11:50)
- Just by turning a conclusion (an ending) into a beginning (a quest or a question) a whole new world of inquiries opens up. (17:30)

In spirit of upcoming Halloween, Lee is playing devil's advocate with some common questions that we get in mind.
Have a listen.
Highlights:
- It’s not uncommon for a human being to have assumed that because another person uses a word that their familiar with, that therefore they know everything about that word and subject and can pronounce their opinion on it. (3:15)
- Assuming that I have to understand your struggles in order for you to let them go is such a big misconception. (10:45)
- I don’t deny what happened in my life, but I don’t suffer it. (20:25)
- Diagnoses are just a snapshot in time of how you are doing at the moment. (26:10)
- Don’t let good experiences be a mountain top experience, let it be the base line. (34:45)

Today, Lee decides to air his opinions about The Freedom Specialist — "You were operating like a non-profit without any of the benefits of being a non-profit." It's what led us to actually create Built for Freedom as a non-profit to be able to offer help and support to people who aren't in a position to afford that on their own.
If you'd like to join us in offering scholarships for those in need, you can donate here.
Highlights:
- I didn’t realize that I knew something valuable, and when someone pointed it out in a pointed fashion, I went for it. (13:20)
- These are people that are trying to learn self-defense in order to protect themselves, but I’m teaching it in a way that you cease to become a target in the first place. (14:15)
- Freedom can spread like a virus. A freedom virus. (23:20)
- We’re not trying to change the medical industry or the psychology industry. This is something totally different. (31:10)
- This basically eliminates the notion of problems by teaching people how to live so powerfully that what they used to call problems, evaporate on their own because their entire life is just blossoming. (32:00)

School is one example of a social institution where some people thrive and others tank. But what if that has more to do with the way it's set up than whether some students lack the ability to learn.
This was Kathy Kolbe's connundrum. Dyslexic, dysgraphic, riddled with ADHD, and a female in the mid-twentieth century is not exactly a winning formula for success. But she was determined to scientifically prove equality. What she produced has been a tremendous asset in helping our clients learn how to succeed at healing, recovery, and happiness in a way that matches their own strengths (instead of being forced to always do things the way the teacher says). It has freed them to finally be and honor themselves just as they are.
Today well talk about that a little more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- There’s a lot of people listening that don’t realize that when they think there’s a deficit in them, they’ve really just been asked to operate differently than their own strengths. (11:10)
- Being burned out, hopeless, stressed, and depressed; how much of that is just you trying to be someone that you’re not? (12:00)
- It gave perspective on the way I operate and It gave permission to be me. (27:55)
- This is not an excuse to cop out on what you aren’t as familiar with, but maybe that there are other ways to do it.(29:10)
- Your perception of the world, your instinctive reaction to the world, is the place where freedom can be put on autopilot. And that is markedly different than Kathy's conation. (34:45)

Are you really what you eat? Most of the research seems to point that direction. At least we can say that what you put in your body has an enormous effect on how you experience your life.
Meet Glucose, that wonderful saccharine molecule that has a tendency to break down arterial walls and pump the pancreas for all of its insulin. It's the bad guy in so many diets. Yet when eaten after other foods, those foods often nullify the blood glucose spikes that are the hallmark of diabetes. Simply the order the food is eaten changes that. And that's just one way to play nicely with the bad guy so Mr. Glucose doesn't bully your innards as much.
Today we’ll talk about this more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- She’s very careful to mention that you are the scientist of your own life. If it doesn’t work, change it up. (6:20)
- When handling one part of the human body well, it cascades to other things. When handling two parts well, it seems to give exponential help to the body. (7:40)
- Making the argument that you get all these antioxidants from a big spoon of honey is not going to work when they can all be gained in a blueberry. (:)
- It was all sugar. It’s no longer a gas station, it’s a sugar station that happens to sell gas. (26:00)

What if we could look at a diagnoses not as limitations but as possibilities like many cultures have done over the millennia?
People with multiple personalities have the ability to split their emotions and other changes in the body. Yes, I said an ability. Instead of thinking on diagnosis as a disorder. Maybe we can think of it as a strength.
We’ll explore more of this today. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- The difference between somebody with multiple personality disorder, and a normal person, is that the former's personalities don’t talk to each other. (7:15)
- We had a client who claimed to have OCD. So we did a cognitive test on them and they were high in facts and structure. So what if it’s not a disorder, but instead a strength? (12:05)
- Back then the answer was to cast out people with multiple personalities. To put them through some kind of experience that maybe un-fractured the mind a little. (22:20)
- A person with different personalities, has many different personas and masks. The fact that they can take them off at will is amazing (24:55)

As my dad battles his cancer, his doctors are prescribing him with more and more pain meds. But as they give him the substances to shut off his pain signals, they aren’t even questioning whether or not this is adding to the massive bowel obstruction seen on his CT scan. Nor are they even considering any option that is not a drug to alleviate his pain
Yet I show up and give him simple things to do to ramp up his own internal pain killers. These are things "pain doctors" should know, but instead they give me a quizzical look like I'm an alien. All because they aren't questioning whether or not the method they're used to is the only or even best way
So today we’ll talk about the possibility that comes from being willing to question.
Have a listen.
Highlights:
- There’s lots of places where people just swallow the information instead of questioning. (8:30)
- None of them have ever experienced it. And that led to the question, “Why am I listening to them if their answers will only ever keep me on the roller coaster?" (12:25)
- What we’re dealing with is your biology. What we’re dealing with is the comfort of your system, and how your mind makes sense of that. (13:50)
- Doctors are trained to never suggest that they don’t know what’s going on. (30:45)
- It was a really hard thing for this man to even question his own practice. (34:40)

Let's get real about what it feels like when emotions and behaviors take over. When that happens, what do you do?
Today we’ll also talk about questioning things. Not necessarily everything, but all the things that, when questioned, add up to a lot more freedom.
Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Question everything. If it’s helpful and useful to you, then question it. (14:00)
- In any conflict, there’s ten fights and nine of them are going on inside yourself. (21:25)
- If there’s somebody that’s saying “I’ve had a worse life”, I won’t deny that. But what do you want to do now? (26:00)
- In the moment that “I don’t know if I can let this go” is said, then nothing is being let go. But once it is questioned, then it has already been let go. (28:10)

Lee brought up the question “is angustia sin?”
Angustia is the constriction brought by chemicals in the body from their experiences. Sin is something offencive against moral law. So when you experience something that is against your own morals and your own laws and you feel that disappointment, or that constriction, you feel angustia.
Today we’ll explore that more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- The more experience and interaction there is with certain concepts, the more the brain can fine tune its understanding of the world. (26:30)
- When sin enters into a being, the PH levels change and they cause changes in the body that are “leading toward death”. (27:10)
- When you get down to the bottom, a person experiences their sin in angustia. When the life is being squeezed out of their body by themselves. (39:15)
- If karma is taken as “what goes around comes around”, and somebody does good in order to get good in return, but they don’t get that good, they’ll experience disappointment. Which is angustia, which is sin. (39:40)
- The idea that life is a byproduct is a great way to measure whether or not what you are doing is in harmony with the life that you are. (55:05)

As we get older and spend more time on this planet, we often create and experience what might be dubbed turmoils and trauma. But these aren’t always bad.
These biologically intense experiences often create tensions, emotional patterns, and behaviors. As a result, we unwittingly change our instinctive reaction to life.
But this doesn't always have to be an accident. Consciously creating those kinds of experiences while also deliberately redirecting the response in the body generated what might be dubbed "positive trauma", or what one author and researcher calls transformation through turmoil.
Today we’ll talk more about this. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- If trauma is defined as a seed idea at a time during physical or biological intensity, then there’s no need to call it good or bad. (8:45)
- “Do you know the type of intensity and care that has an intention that is good for you?” (15:30)
- Being grateful for not just the results, but the process of trauma as well, was refreshing. (17:25)
- There are ways to court this conscious discomfort. (29:00)
- Oftentimes, the way out is in. In resisting discomfort, we are keeping it around. (31:40)

As humans, we inevitably create tension patterns in our body from experiences we’ve had and the way we’ve lived. Those tension patterns can show up in all sorts of situations, from the way we talk, all the way down to the way we walk.
Using new and different movement to mess with those tensions and put a “disturbance in the force” is a ridiculously simple method that can free us from these tensions. Those movements also have the added benefit of revealing all the other patterns we’ve created.
We’ll explore this a little more today. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Any lever in the body will effect something, so let’s pull the practical ones. (11:40)
- It’s impossible to lie and hide what’s on the inside. It’s like whack-a-mole, it’ll just pop out another hole. (13:20)
- On the second day of retreats we have the guys move in various ways to get rid of their physically rigid form, and that will translate to their mentally rigid form. (16:20)
- Start breathing before the movement, keep breathing throughout the movement, and continue breathing after so that the breath becomes an envelope. (19:45)
- Hard work is not a virtue. It may be required from time to time, but it’s not a virtue. It’s taxing on the body, and the body doesn’t want it. (23:30)
- When the movement can be something that is smooth and powerful, there’s more power with less effort, and your body doesn’t suffer the consequences. (:)

We all know that feeling when you’re watching a movie and you feel the stress and the tension just like the character on the screen. This is your body creating a tension pattern around something that you subconsciously enjoy.
There are many things people do to control these states — like chants or meditations — but not all of these are beneficial. None are better or worse than others, but they aren’t always everything they are cracked up to be, despite the propaganda.
Today we'll explore some things to watch out for. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Every human life seems to have a different expression of human-ness (2:00)
- Whatever activity you engage with, however good or bad, it is conditioning your mind and your body to function in a certain way. (7:40)
- You didn’t break your brain, you just taught your body an uncontrolled skill (9:40)
- If you are training and then the army invades, and you’re exhausted, then your training didn’t serve you well. (12:05)
- Do you want an employee that sits down for their lunch break and wakes up 13 days later? You're going to be functional in society when you're in these ecstatic meditative states. (15:35)
- Meditation is not designed to cope with life. It's a place where something very, very deep within a person can open up in really profound ways and you can grasp the nature of your own existence. (25:30)

You know that feeling when you want to ask for something but you don’t want to seem weak or helpless? Or when you feel guilty because somebody else didn’t communicate clearly and you “let them down”?
These are the times when we, as adults, forget that we can actually ask for things. We spend all out time telling our kids this, and yet often don’t do it ourselves. It might surprise you how freeing it is to ask for things — to "use our words" — instead expending all that energy in the constant chess game of manipulating other humans, holding expectations, and then hoping people read your mind and do what you want.
Just ask. Here's more on that. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Alive and Free go hand in hand. The more life you have flowing through your body, the more alive you will feel and the more free you will feel, regardless of your circumstances. (1:50)
- We set up this expectation that if somebody really loves me then I shouldn’t have to communicate what I want from them. (6:45)
- I’m too lazy to care enough about the other person to communicate effectively with them and then I want to blame them for lack of communication. (14:40)
- You don’t actually love people. You love the idea of them, and when they don’t measure up to your idea you get upset about it. (17:00)
- There is some courage in putting yourself out there and appearing vulnerable (8:50)
- When you are honest, you have the most power in any room. Everybody else is busy trying to manipulate other people into believing them. (20:35)

People told me from the time I was little that the universe was created either by a big bang or by some outside, greater force. And (because I was little) I never really thought to question that.
But what happens if, instead of just accepting every "fact" just because someone bigger or older says it's a fact, we take a second to pause and actually see if they are useful ways to see the world? That journey — allowing yourself to question everything that has been told to you — can sometimes feel scary, but it opens the door to better solutions than the ones that haven't been working.
It also frees you from being sucked in or duped by another authority, documentary, news reel, or even research study. It gives you the ability to see life with your own two eyes instead of always having to look through the eyes of others.
So let's challenge some "facts" today, shall we? Some BIG ones. And then see how that relates to your freedom from trauma, addiction, depression, pain, and so much more.
Have a listen.
Highlights:
- Nobody has witnessed any of these explanations, they’re just theories attempting to explain what we don’t know. (4:25)
- Nobody is right, the question is whether it’s useful to you in your life. (19:05)
- That’s where the religions that have stuck around have flourished. They’ve been useful enough to people that they have some staying power. (19:15)
- It’s important to question any narrative that you’ve been given. (21:20)
- When I speak from my own experience and don’t exaggerate, people don’t try to argue. (34:25)
- Build your life from your own experiences and then borrow whatever is useful to you from other people instead of believing it because of their authority.(35:30)

Sometimes we have these emotional rocks — literally, these are crystallized bits of ammonia, lactic acid, and other chemistry just sitting in our system. Leftovers from previous emotional soups run dry and not cleaned from the pot.
Those "rocks" form because of the way your body instinctively responds at a molecular level to changes in your environment or situation. You might feel this as stress, ecstasy, anger, or even bliss, but what's really happening are that a bunch of neurons and cells are caught in a habitual chain reaction. And if not allowed flow through you and out, if resisted or suppressed in some way, those chain reactions persist.
That's the key. Resisting, interpreting, and giving meaning to all those reactions repeatedly trains your system to create it as a shortcut.
Today, we get to explore a bit about breaking the rock cycle. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- If you don’t clean out your body you just have a bunch of emotional soups that are left in there. (8:30)
- Your body is basically a walking Petri dish because of all the little bacteria and things in it. (16:25)
- There isn’t a root issue with you, there is just a state that your body is in and your brain's interpretation of that state. (17:30)
- If your body doesn’t change its state, then it's feeding the brain the same information to build with. (18:35)
- The rocks of your body form out of the soup of the emotions that are inside of the system. (21;40)

A breath of fresh air is more than just the smell of trees, grass, and ozone?
That one action is one of the fastest ways to mix up the chemistry in your body and create a completely different experience of life. It’s a very simple, direct, and even easy process at times. Because how you feel is directly tied to your internal chemistry.
We had a client with anxiety who needed a change. Someone constantly anxious. Someone getting the creepy feeling like there were people in his house even when he knew that nobody was there. And with a just little bit of breath work he began to feel amazing. We're talking minutes here.
Because with a few adjustments to how you breathe, you can power up your body, think more clearly, calm yourself down, and even eliminate pain.
Today, we get to explore that a bit more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- As I learned to breath better I became more aware of my body. (11:04)
- Where you agitate the breath or where you don’t agitate it will create a different effect in the breathing and the body. (17:25)
- This is a guy with lots of anxiety and after some breath work, he feels amazing .(21:20)
- Breathing changed him and helped clear out his OCD in a week. (22:30)
- What we’re doing is not a pitch to help somebody, but rather an invitation to more life. (36:30)
- Maybe take some time today and consider the gift that you have of the breath of life. (38:30)

What if the real answer to your situation is that there was never a problem? I mean that with things as small as “he took my toy” and as big as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and the like. It’s the radical, all-in-a-moment shift in perception that makes just about every problem vanish as quickly as it appeared.
Without that, you end up endlessly chasing the next carrot and building an unpaid career in healing that never promises retirement. Nearly two decades training and teaching kung fu taught me about chasing the carrot.
From lengthy sequences of movements to small little death points, there’s always something else that you need to master or some ancient technique that was “long forgotten”. But those are for the black belts. Or the next belt. And if you don’t keep at it, you’ll miss out. Major FOMO.
Same thing happens with the latest new-fangled healing modality or whizbang medical breakthrough. You need this, or you must have that. But do you really?
The answer to that lies in looking at your situation again and seeing through all the competing voices to what’s really going on. Do that, and all the unnecessary carrots vanish like the mirages they are.
Today, we get to explore that a bit more. Have a listen.
Highlights:
- In order to keep you going, the industry had to keep you aware that there was more. (6:55)
- In order to make you feel like you need something, advertising corporations show you something that makes you think your life is miserable. (11:36)
- If you can’t be happy when you aren’t married then you’re never going to be truly happy when you are married. In fact, that makes it worse (12:12)
- What is the life that is within me asking for? Not, “What does everyone say it should have?” (20:25)
- If you can’t explain it to a six year old then you don’t understand it yourself (34:40)
- The chase ends not when you solve the problem or fix yourself, but when you realize you were never broken in the first place. (35:55)

Perry came to us as a videographer, not a client. He filmed retreats for us for 4 years until finally asking for some of the physical work we do to help him out.
This is a guy who has run yoga retreats, explored all sorts of personal growth work, experienced a vast array of psychedelics, and deeply gets the link between the mind and the body. Yet still, he said afterward, “I thought I understood what you guys do, but I didn’t realize just how deep it was.”
That’s what happens when you bypass the mind and work both directly AND deeply with the body. Things change fast. Because all our mental and emotional issues are built on the state of the body.
Change that, you change everything.
Have a listen.
Highlights:
- People are hungry to know how their body works and not have to rely on a book they read or anything else (7:20)
- By the time he got up it was like the facade had fallen and there was a real person sitting in front of me (10:25)
- If you’re talking about a broken person, there’s no such thing. If they were they’d be dead (11:55)
- Once someone puts a label on what I’m doing, they think they understand, and they discount it (14:20)
- It’s the body, not the mind, that experiences the change, and it rises up and discovers it’s not lacking, not weak. (24:25)
- It only seems impossible because you’re looking at it from your history, not from your possibility (26:15)

Here’s something that will make you challenge everything you believe you know:
The real reason why there’s so much anxiety, or depression, or pain, or frustration, or stress, or fear, or anger in your life is NOT because something’s broken inside you. Or because something’s “wrong” with you.
The real reason is because you probably never trained in conflict. So when conflict shows up, you do your best and exhibit the above emotions.
And you know what?
By training yourself in conflict, you can figure out how to be free of conflict. You can even find joy in conflict, and banish these nasty emotions without any other work or effort.
And this creates a freedom to feel joy surge through your body at every moment in the day.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to unlock this kind of freedom inside of conflict and live the rest of your life in immense joy.
Listen now.
Show Highlights Include:
- The oddball “narrate your life” trick for never getting road rage again (1:54)
- The “Martial Arts for Healing” method for erasing your trauma through roughhousing and play fighting (9:16)
- Why the root cause of all your suffering is from conflict (and how you can create freedom and joy inside conflict) (10:10)
- The “pride is punched” secret for unlocking joy even when you’re being physically attacked (12:21)
- How taking blame for the conflicts you find yourself in liberates you from them (16:19)
- The “Functional Meditation” technique I reveal at retreats which lets you bring a meditative quality to everyday life (21:08)

Labels and diagnoses, from ADHD to codependency and every one in between, usually limits your potential.
For example, I recently discovered that I probably have ADHD. But since I never labeled myself as ADHD or have gotten an official diagnosis that I have ADHD, it’s been a super power for me instead of a way to victimize myself.
The problem is, most people don’t operate like this. They get labeled an addict, then falsely believe that they’re an addict forever. It strips the power from them instead of empowering them.
The solution?
Challenge all of your narratives, even the ones you created. Because there’s a chance you’re limiting yourself instead of tapping into your natural super powers.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to challenge your narratives and unlock the pent-up super powers you already have inside you.
Listen now.
Show Highlights Include:
- The counterintuitive way creating habits to get into a “flow state” can leave you more distracted and less productive (0:51)
- Why the ADHD population is the most underserved community on Earth (and how to use it as an unfair advantage for life) (5:34)
- How thinking of your ADHD as “otherabled” lets you unlock the super powers it can give you (7:58)
- Why the mentality of modern education makes you think your strengths are weaknesses (10:09)
- The insidious way labeling yourself gives you a negative perception of yourself that lasts for decades (11:34)
- Why taking a problem solver test (like the Kolbe test) gives you a better insight into how you operate through life than a personality test (20:40)
- How starting your day by creating a “Not To Do” list can boost your productivity and make your happiness soar (25:38)

The concept of “healing” might sound appealing, but it’s actually a dangerous trick in disguise. Why? Well, it means you have to believe something is wrong with you in the first place, otherwise healing would never interest you.
And when you let healing lure you in like a worm on a fishing rod it can actually create more misery, shame, and suffering.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. You don’t have to “fix” or “heal” anything. Instead, you could just be done with that “masterpiece” of your life, and start painting a brand-new canvas, free from your past mistakes and trauma.
How do you do this?
In this episode, I reveal the counterintuitive way to stop judging yourself for your past, and how this unveils a new beauty in life.
Listen now.
Show Highlights Include
- How diving deep into art forces you to see the hidden beauty in life (1:29)
- The insidious “fix me” trap you can fall into on your healing journey which actually heightens your misery (6:53)
- The “Masterpiece” mindset shift for becoming oddly grateful for your past traumas, addictions, and suffering (9:04)
- How writing your own eulogy can help you set down the worst things from your past and start a new life (16:27)
- Do you shame yourself for your mistakes? Here’s why celebrating them instead frees you from them instead of imprisoning you to them (24:32)

There’s an invisible world living beneath your skin. It controls your emotions, mood, cravings, and can even alter your entire personality.
What’s this invisible world that can hijack your very experience of life itself?
Parasites!
Now, I don’t say this to creep you out or give you a reason to shift blame onto these nasty single cell organisms, but to offer you hope:
Whatever you’re dealing with now that’s lowering your quality of life, could be the result of parasites. And that is empowering because there are things you can do to rid yourself of these parasites.

Listen now.

A while back, Jasmine and I considered ending our marriage. At the time, I was in a weird depressive funk, which is no place to decide on what to do in a relationship.
Now, I wasn’t depressed, but I was stuck. I didn’t know what the point of life was. And I lost all motivation. So, I decided to try ketamine therapy.
Well, I discovered a ton of interesting insights throughout my 6 session ketamine therapy, including how it accelerated these feelings of disillusionment I was feeling.
In this episode, I reveal my insights, so you can decide if ketamine therapy can work as an accelerant for your life too.
Listen now.

Do you want to be a victim of your own memory?
The unfortunate truth is, while unwilling to admit it, most people kind of like being a victim of their memory.
Why?
Well, it’s comfortable and it absolves you of responsibility for things that happened in your life that you didn’t like. But it comes with a steep cost:
When you're a victim of your own memory, you cannot live every moment of your life in complete joy. Your past traumas and suffering haunt you relentlessly. And it fills you with misery.
Here’s the good news:
You can stop being a victim of your own memory—as soon as today. All it requires is questioning your memories, and the stories you told yourself about those memories.
And in this episode, you’ll discover how to challenge your memories—even your most traumatizing ones—and delete them from your “code.”
Want to live every moment of your life in complete bliss, free from your past (and your future)?
Listen now.

In the Buddhist religion, masters would tell their students that if they saw the Buddha, they should kill him.
Why?
Well, the authorities that you revere are your last obstacle towards achieving true freedom. If you’re still letting them influence you, you’re not using your own eyes and ears, which can lead you down a path of judgment and suffering.
By “killing the Buddha,” you become the author in your life, with the ability to change your life’s experience from negative and dark to positive and vibrant.
In this episode, we’re discussing the last “Adventure” of my new book, Built for Freedom. You’ll discover how to kill the Buddha, how to unlock an endless source of joy, and how to leave all your suffering in the past.
Listen now.
Show Highlights Include
- The “Kill the Buddha” secret for finally overcoming your final obstacle towards achieving real freedom (1:19)
- The insidious way idealizing someone subconsciously creates negative experiences of life for you (even if the person you idealize has improved your life) (4:17)
- Why pursuing happiness will always keep it just out of reach (and how to make it naturally arise inside you instead) (6:11)
- The “Happiness Happens” mindset shift to stop chasing approved from others and unlock blissful peace (7:53)
- How to radically change the way you see yourself for the rest of your days by reading this book (19:48)

We have several tour guides throughout our lives. Our parents, our teachers, our mentors, and our friends. When used correctly, these tour guides steer you down creating your own path, and becoming an experitus.
But the problem many people face is that they lose their own experiences in the process of bouncing from tour guide to tour guide.
The result?
Your tour guides become stumbling blocks, introducing more pain and suffering into your life instead of freeing you from it.
But at some point, life’s all on you.
And, as you’ll discover in today’s episode, that’s great news. Because it means you—and you alone—have the power to change your life, replace your negativity with positivity, and experience true freedom and joy.
Want to know the secret for becoming your own experitus and watching your freedom and joy jump through the roof?
Listen now.

- Why you don’t actually learn from your experiences unless you do this key thing afterwards (11:51)

“What entertains you, trains you.” It’s a pithy quote I’ve repeated often on this show, but there’s also hardcore scientific evidence that proves this phenomenon is true.
For example, in science, there’s what’s known as the placebo effect, and the nocebo effect. Both of these phenomenons prove that your thoughts can alter your reality—both in positive and negative ways.
Here’s what that means for you in your life:
You are in the driver’s seat. You have complete control over the experiences you want to have. And the experiences you don’t want to have. You just have to pay attention to what’s training you.
Take suffering for example. It’s not a fact of life, but it happens. And it’s an option. But most people don’t realize there are other options available too.
In this episode, we dive into the 8th chapter from my brand-new book, and reveal how much control you have over your thoughts and feelings. And how to pick more positive options instead of drowning in your suffering.
Listen now.
Show Highlights Include:
- The “Placebo/Nocebo Effect” for bending reality to your will and unlocking a deeper sense of peace (1:18)
- The weird reason why your own name can cause your trauma to attack you (2:12)
- How social institutions subtly brainwash you to hyperfocus on negative things instead of looking for the positive things we’re surrounded by (6:11)
- Why your thoughts alone about a past experience can morph it from a positive one to a negative one (and vice versa) (10:44)
- How physiological experiences can wipe out lifelong trauma in mere minutes (10:59)
- The scientific mechanism which proves—beyond a shadow of a doubt—that your thoughts change the way your body operates (14:07)
- The strange “religion as a technology” secret for feeling better and even living longer (17:03)

There are a lot of similarities between pain (even chronic pain) and emotions. But the most important similarity is this:

We’re suckers for authority. We see someone in a white lab coat, and immediately think they know all the answers. But reality doesn’t typically play out how they say:
Take Amber for example, a featured guest on this episode. She battled chronic pain for years, got prescribed pain pills, and shortly became addicted to them. When she realized she was done taking pain pills, she quit cold turkey. And the next time she went to her doctor—someone she likes as a person, mind you—he told her that quitting pain pills cold turkey could’ve killed her. Well, it didn’t.
And we do this in our own lives too: with therapy, with visits to the doctor, by reading self-help books, and even by scrolling WebMD only to convince ourselves we’re dying.
The truth is, authority isn’t always right. In fact, it tends to be wrong a lot of the time. And this is dangerous because at the end of the day, we’re our own ultimate authority figure.
While it may seem like bad news, it’s not. Because this empowers us to make positive changes by simply questioning authority.
And in this episode, you’ll discover how to do just that to free yourself from addiction, misery, pain, and suffering.
Listen now.
Show Highlights Include
- Why we’re predisposed to believe anything from an authority speaker’s lips (even if its dead wrong and causes more suffering) (5:41)
- The insidious way pain pills promise to make you better for your family (and how to quit them cold turkey when you realize they aren’t serving you) (8:12)
- The “Slippery Slope” reason why pain pills can help you one day, then overwhelm you with addictive tendencies the next (9:22)
- How doctors prescribe you life-changing pills off conclusions from the data, not the data itself (and why understanding this distinction helps you break free from addiction) (12:48)
- The”experience” mindset shift which instantly turns emotions generally considered as bad into fun roller coaster rides (16:11)
- The weird way watching Inglourious Basterds can help you blow up your trauma—for good—in a fiery explosion (18:37)
- The “beyond the Milky Way” secret that unlocks an infinite amount of hope that your addiction is not permanent (20:30)
- How the stories you tell yourself can dupe you into thinking you have full-blown kidney disease (even if you’re perfectly healthy) (24:23)

Society has been brainwashed into believing a lie. This falsehood has caused more addiction, pain, and suffering than perhaps any other lie in history. But the good news is: It’s a lie.
So, what’s the lie? The disease theory of addiction.
Now, this theory has helped many people overcome their addiction, but they still aren’t freed of it because one of the tenets of this theory is that you can’t get rid of addiction. That's where the lie comes in.
And in this episode, you’ll discover several reasons why it’s not only possible to free yourself from addiction—for good—but it’s also easier than you might think.
Want to experience a life that’s not driven by your addiction? Listen now.
Show Highlights Include
- The one single “lie” everybody believes which ruins all the life in you (1:25)

- The “Symptoms Underneath” secret for addressing and erasing embarrassing or shameful addictions like pornography (10:44)

Scientists discovered that a tiny fraction of the weight of a dime creates enough pressure on your cells to force them to divide.

About 14 years ago, a plane crashed into a volcano it didn’t see because the coordinates had been two degrees off on the instrument panel.
This story reminds me of the current state of therapy: Therapy’s success rates are shockingly low. In fact, even shock therapy gives you better odds. Now, it’s not because therapists are bad people, most of them have the best intentions, but they’re just two degrees off on how to solve it.
Well, in this episode, we look at Chapter 2 from my newest book, Built for Freedom, and my journey for discovering a better, faster, and more effective way to conquer your addictions and trauma.

When you invite freedom into your life, it creates a domino effect that seeps into every aspect of your life—for the better.
Take Lee for example:
By inviting freedom into his life after attending a retreat, he finally put his body at ease. Then, his mind became at ease, and he didn’t have as many dark and depressing thoughts. Next, he lost 30 pounds, then 60 pounds, then 100 pounds. Before freedom, he had sleep apnea and stopped breathing 175 times each hour. After freedom, he’s had nights where he only stops breathing 0.4 times per hour! He’s also sold his home, sold 99.5% of his possessions because they were no longer serving him, and is unquestionably the happiest he’s ever been in his life.
Imagine you had a similar transformation — where joy and freedom are your defaults. And you experience a glorious cycle of your life getting better each and every day.
That’s what freedom offers you. And in this episode, Lee and I break down Lee’s amazing transformation in nitty-gritty detail, so you realize positive change is more possible than you think.

Every relationship is hard, whether with your spouse, kids, or friends. But we have a tendency to make our relationships harder than they actually are too.
When emotions infiltrate your relationships, especially in heated conversations and arguments, it leads to compromises, hardships, and even resentment.
The solution?
Slowing things down to an Eeyore trot. For example, when you have an argument with your wife, you can use email to communicate about it (without sacrificing living life in the moment).
Jasmine and I recently did this after I wanted to experiment with THC gummies in Colorado and she felt a certain way about it. But through email, we came to a solution that worked for both of us and stifled resentment which would’ve bubbled if we didn't.
In this episode, I reveal how to slow things down, how to realize most problems aren’t an emergency, and why doing this will make your relationship more loving and prosperous.
Listen now.
Show Highlights Include
- How to use psychoactive substances to produce profound experiences that can add beauty to your life (5:36)
- Why stripping the emotion out of conversations with your loved ones allows love to blossom (and how email does this with ease) (14:49)
- How your fear of rejection creeps up in your marriage and tries to sabotage it (even after 19 years of proof that your spouse won’t reject you) (18:46)
- The sneaky way acting out of a present motivation in your marriage can cause irreversible regret later (24:18)
- Why seeking to be heard from other people is a recipe for disaster, distress, and divorce (24:47)

- How creativity, not compromises or cooperation, can turn every negative thing in a relationship into a deeper reason to love (33:24)
- The “Eeyore Secret” for slowing down in your relationship and preventing emergencies before they happen (36:55)

Most people lead their lives with their mind, not their heart. This causes unnecessary stress, worry, and anxiety.
Why?
Because your heart sends signals to your mind, and your mind makes up negative stories about whatever your heart’s sending you.
And most people don’t realize they can lead their lives with their heart instead of their mind. But by leading your life with your heart first, you can eliminate these anxiety-inducing thoughts before they even pop up.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to lead your life with your heart first, how it erases much of your suffering, and why it’ll make your life easier and happier.

Every time an event happens in our life—good, bad, or in between—our brain creates a story out of it. And since your brain is cunning and sly, it connects these made-up stories to other made-up stories in your mind.
While this isn’t necessarily a good or bad thing, most people believe these stories they tell themselves are reality itself.
The result? Your mind creates trauma, suffering, and misery out of thin air!
Not only are these stories false, but two stories almost never have the connective tissue between them that your brain thinks they do.
And by simply questioning these stories, you can free yourself from your suffering.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to question these stories and unlock peace as your default state.

Many listeners, Freedom Specialist clients, and even other Freedom Specialist coaches wonder how I parent. And admittedly, I have some weird and counterintuitive parenting strategies that might make other parents scoff, but work well for my kids and my family.
For example, I don’t congratulate my kids when they create an awesome drawing. Why? Because it trains them to seek validation from outside sources. Instead, I use it as a way to help them validate themselves.
And this is just one example of many.

Everyone has secrets.
Most of them for a good reason.
But, it’ is not the same with addictions. Keeping secrets may be exactly what holds you back on your way to recovery.
It’s difficult to open up about your weaknesses, regardless of how close you may be with the other person.
Especially if you were raised in a strict environment, that answered your mistakes with punishment.
The truth is, there is nothing inherently wrong with you, and the people in your life can support you on your way to recovery.
In this episode, Lee and I will share the communication framework to talk about trauma and addiction. And why getting caught may be the deciding stepping stone on your way to heal yourself.

I had an experience the other day when my buddies and I went out for dinner. We saw an attractive woman, and I used it as an opportunity to understand what was going on inside my body as a result of seeing her.
Most people would call the sensation I felt lust. I would too, until I started paying attention to what was actually happening. After paying attention, I realized it was not lust I was experiencing, but life itself.
Here’s what I mean:
Any type of energy you feel—from lust to depression and everything in between—is simply a sensation in your body. A sensation you can move anywhere else in your body, the same way you can focus on your right or left big toe.
The problem most people have is we dissipate this energy without realizing it’s life itself, which results in misery, fatigue, and emptiness. But when we harness that energy and send it elsewhere, we unlock profound amounts of bliss.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to transform your “negative” energies into a renewed sense of life and happiness.

Most of the people who have come to a Freedom Specialist retreat—myself included—have had one thing in common:
Their biggest fear is a lack of control. But this fear itself dupes you into subconsciously sabotaging everything you value in your life. It’s why relationships fall apart. It’s why you can’t get ahead in your career. And it’s why you imprison yourself in misery.
And you know what?
This fear—in every example I’ve ever seen—stems from being dishonest to yourself. When you’re honest with yourself, you set yourself free from this problem and open yourself up to bliss and joy.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to be more honest with yourself, and why honesty may be the most important factor to your happiness.

Salvation, enlightenment, and bliss. These are the experiences everyone craves. We want the 40 lb backpack of despair, addiction, and trauma lifted off our shoulders, so we can start living life to the fullest again.

The correct answer isn’t what you think it is.

Imagine you have a battery attached to your body. Everything you do—from eating food and working to driving and watching TV—either drains your battery or recharges it.
Most people unknowingly do activities which drain the very life source from them without ever asking if those activities are worth draining their energy. Some draining activities are worth it, but are they all?
On the other hand, there are certain activities that charge you up, surround you with bliss, and help you tap into the divine nature of life itself.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to build your awareness, so you can swap out your most draining activities for ones that make you feel alive.
The result?
You’ll start to notice all the miracles happening around you without you even trying to look for them.

Confronting your beliefs about life is one of the most difficult (and rewarding) things you can do. Nobody likes being wrong, let alone admitting their wrong.
But what if your beliefs—whether in God, addiction, or trauma—are wrong? And what if admitting your wrong opens up a new possibility for life itself? One that can even grow you closer to God than you are now.
That’s what each of the people who have come to a Freedom Specialist retreat have experienced in some form or fashion. And that’s what Lee and I discuss in today’s show.

When you were born, you weren’t a people pleaser. Yet many people label themselves as such today (even though it causes undue suffering).
Why?
Because learning to be a people pleaser usually helps you cope with a traumatic experience that could date back to your early childhood years.
For example, one of the folks who came to the Freedom Specialist retreats was a self-admitted people pleaser with a porn addiction. He even contemplated suicide. After digging, I realized he still carried the trauma of his friend committing suicide nearly a decade before he stepped foot in the retreat.
But by working with his body—instead of his thoughts—he discovered a new way to act. The result? His trauma disappeared and he’s never been happier since.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to use your body to quiet your nastiest negative thoughts and unlock more joy than you even thought possible.

Suicide is the second leading cause of death for everyone up to age 45. It’s a tragedy—and a full out epidemic.
So why do so many people in our world choose to kill themselves instead of living out the rest of their days?
Well, there are several reasons. From societal expectations to social media and everything in between. But another massive problem is people don’t feel comfortable talking about it.
In fact, even though I had suicidal thoughts, I had no idea my son did. I couldn’t spot it, even after he read me a cryptic story he wrote. More recently, I caught him bawling his eyes out in his car as he tried to talk his friend down from the ledge. His parents didn’t know either.
Suicide happens all the time, it’s the second leading cause of death up to age 45, after all. Yet nobody is comfortable enough to discuss it.
But you know what?
It doesn’t have to be this way. You and I have the power to change this. Forever.
And in this episode, my two oldest sons join me to discuss suicide, why it’s such a common problem, and how you can prevent suicide in your family.

The Buddha as we know him wasn’t always the Buddha. In fact, he was just a normal guy who suffered like most of us do. But then the Buddha discovered the only true way to get rid of suffering.
Years after the Buddha’s discovery, a philosopher approached him. The philosopher searched for the answers to life his entire life. And the Buddha’s only solution was to sit in silence for two years.
After begrudgingly agreeing to the Buddha’s terms, two years later, the philosopher had no questions for the Buddha.
Moral of the story?
You don’t have to solve your “problems.” In fact, trying to solve them is what makes them seem like problems in the first place. But your problems don’t exist. And by prioritizing your body—instead of your mind—your problems will dissolve on their own.
In this episode, you’ll discover why the mind creates problems. And why relying on the mind to solve them only makes them bigger.

We don’t come out of the womb seeking validation. But shortly after, our parents, our society, and our culture train us to seek validation.
This is a mistake that leads to suffering, depression, and even suicide.
Why?
Because you’re already perfect the way you are. But the more you seek validation from others, the more you remove yourself from your perfection. Which makes it impossible to free yourself from your suffering.
In this episode, you’ll discover why validation is a deadly poison that keeps you caged instead of free. And how to feel okay with your life without any kind of validation.

Can the Freedom Specialist still help you even if you’re not miserable or dealing with severe trauma?
Most people don’t have severe trauma or addictions that sabotage their lives. But there’s still an opportunity to feel better, to feel more like yourself, and to experience more joy than you do right now.
In fact, that’s exactly what happened with today’s guest, Freedom Specialist client turned coach, Jonathan. Jonathan wasn’t a ball of misery every day, but he still felt like he was missing something in his life.
After spending four days at a Freedom Specialist retreat, Jonathan unlocked a deep sense of joy that most people never get to experience.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to transform feeling “okay” into feeling alive and free every single day.

And we get annoyed when we argue with our loved ones, who are supposed to understand us more than anyone else and vice versa.
We ask ourselves how far from reality the other person can be, and don’t shift from our position. It’s those silly arguments that can end a relationship.
But there is a way to avoid unnecessary conflict and strengthen your relationships at the same time.

Therapy has helped a lot of people in the world. But it can’t help everyone. And in fact, it may not be the best approach to solve mental health problems.
For example, today’s guest, Ace Jaysayer, is a therapist himself. But after an earth-shattering divorce, he slowly realized the modern form of therapy isn’t too effective.
He first used his skills on himself for a year. When that didn’t work, he found the best therapist in the world for him. But that didn’t work either.
As he was on the brink of suicice, he discovered the Freedom Specialist and came to a retreat. Within two days, 98% of his trauma vanished.
In this episode, Ace shares his story, why modern therapy isn’t as effective as it could be, and how you can overcome your suffering (even when therapy didn’t work for you).

When you make a massive change in your life, like unlocking unlimited joy and freedom, it causes ripples of change to every relationship too. And these ripples of change aren’t always positive, which confuses many people.

Who told you that all your traumas and baggage are problems? Where did the ideas of depression, anxiety, and addiction even come from? Are they even true?
Here’s why I’m asking:
By simply questioning your ideas, problems, and emotions you can start to leave them behind. So why don’t more people question these topics?
Well, they believe them to be true because their family, friends, and therapists drilled it into their heads. But feeling stuck also gives you a demented form of comfort — like it has for me and today’s guest, Lee.
In this episode, you’ll hear Lee’s story of growing up for 16 years in a family that abused him physically, mentally, emotionally, spritually, and sexually. And you’ll discover how Lee finally set down his trauma story for good.
The result?
He’s happier and more free than he’s ever been. (Plus, his beard is darker!)

Since we were born, we’ve been conditioned to need certain things. From basic things like food and water to lavish things like sports cars and watches.
But do we really “need” anything? Maybe not…
I’ve been recently training under Elitom El-amin. He’s a breatharian who hasn’t eaten food or drank water in two years.
Yes, years!
As Elitom proves, not only do you not need food, but you don’t need anything. And nothing—and I mean nothing—unlocks more freedom in your life than ditching your notion of need.
Why?
Because as soon as you ditch your notion of need, every possible life route you have becomes an option for a life-changing adventure.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to question your notion of need, how you may be able to live without food and water, and why your needs sabotage your joy.

Where has all your struggling and suffering begun? There is only one common thread between your suffering — and it’s not your outside environment, the people involved, or even the food you ate beforehand.
The only common culprit is your thinking.
While that sounds gloomy, here’s why that’s good news:
Nature handed you freedom, happiness, and creativity as your birthright. Nurture stripped that away — with the language you use, the religious ideas you believe, and the education you receive.
By simply understanding that your knowledge comes from a massive telephone game played throughout human history, you can finally unlock unlimited joy, health, and freedom.

Ask most people what their end goal is for life, and they’ll say either happiness or freedom. And here is where your problems begin:
Happiness and freedom are the fuel to drive your car to an actualized, blissful life. Not the end destination. When you start with happiness and freedom, your emotional baggage fades from the background of your life and becomes nonexistent. In fact, your haunted past will feel like it happened to another person — and you just have access to their memory banks.
This process opens up a world of possibilities, opportunities, and yes, miracles. But you have to know how to access it.
In this episode, my former student, Tucker, joins me again to reveal how to start with freedom and happiness. And how your life will get better every single day once you do.

There is a musical world all around us. Scientists discovered that even plants play “music” through their electrical signals.
And your brain works the same way: It sends electrical signals throughout your body every moment of the day. These electrical signals either create “music” and bliss or “noise” and misery.
These electrical signals have brainwashed us with the ideas of limitations in the human system. Here’s a practical example:
We think being an “addict” means we’re forever addicted to our vices. Of course, that’s not the truth. But we’ve trained our brains to believe it. And as a result, our brains produce those feelings.
The fact is, every limitation you have is only a limitation because it’s what you’ve trained yourself to believe.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to cut through these limitations and experience pure ecstasy every moment of your life.
Listen now.

We experience the world through our senses. They are feelers that let us connect with ourselves and others. But there’s a common misconception.
At school, we’re taught to believe that we have five senses: eyesight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell.
That’s not true.
Humans actually have nine senses. Not being in touch with them will cause you to feel emotionally or physically stuck. It’s the reason why so many people find it difficult to make positive changes in their lives.
Maybe you struggle with the same thing? If so, this episode is for you.
Listen in to discover what the nine senses are and how harnessing them gives you the chance to feel more fulfilled in your life. No matter what has happened to you before.

- How to increase the electromagnetic field of your heart to be more compassionate and relaxed (18:42)

Do you feel like you’re living in a prison sometimes…one that you built yourself?
You’re not alone.
Too often we let fear, shame, or other negative emotions take control of our lives. We fear these emotions because they take us out of our comfort, forcing us to be in situations that don’t make us feel 100% safe. That feeling robs us from experiencing new and exciting parts of life.
But by learning how your emotions work, you can better harness the power it takes to embrace change and break free from your prison.
In today’s episode, you discover how to rewire your brain to handle fear and other negative emotions so you can break the pattern and thrive.

Most people don’t understand happiness. And it robs them of feeling blissful every day. Happiness isn’t tied to achievements, purchases, or other life events. In fact, thinking of happiness this way creates untold suffering.
Why?
Because pain and pleasure are two sides of the same coin. Your brain has certain homeostatic mechanisms that create pain if you’re feeling too much pleasure and vice versa.
Here’s why that’s good news:
You have a baseline level of peace and well-being you can tap into regardless of what positive or negative external events happen.

We live in a backwards society full of illusions. We take people’s word for things without experiencing it ourselves. We buy into their theories about addiction and depression, only to become more addicted and depressed.

As humans, we try to separate ourselves from animals and nature as much as possible. We believe that thinking makes us different from every other type of life on the planet.
But this is a mistake which creates suffering.
Why?
Because we’re not special because we can think.
Thinking is a garnish and your body is the main course. When we try to replace the main course with only a garnish, we create unnecessary misery.
In this episode, you’ll discover why we’re more like animals than you think. And how this realization makes your suffering vanish for good.
Listen now.

Humans trap themselves in the pursuit of becoming special. We learn new amazing skills, ditch our worst habits, and try our darndest to improve ourselves instead of living a mediocre life.
But this actually makes us more miserable because we’re never satisfied.
Let’s use addiction as an example. Freeing yourself from addiction won’t instantly make you happier because your brain finds other ways to beat yourself up.
Here’s the truth:
There’s nothing you can do to make yourself more special than you are now. And that’s a good thing — because it means you can rejoice about who you are right now.
In this episode, you’ll discover why you are special (even if you don’t feel like it).
Listen now and free yourself from the trap of “becoming special.”

Our society glorifies shortcuts and band-aids to heal deep-rooted suffering. But these shortcuts don’t work. In fact, they prolong our suffering.
Why?
Because any affliction suffocating you—from depression and anxiety to addiction and trauma—is a byproduct of the real problem.
This is why talk therapy doesn’t work. It’s like trying to season a rotten fish instead of finding a fresh one.
That’s the bad news.
The good news?
Your life is made of certain building blocks. And once you fix these building blocks, you’ll amaze yourself by how quickly all your mental and emotional problems vanish—for good.
In this episode, I reveal how to readjust your building blocks, so every passing day becomes the happiest of your life.

Most people live with their suffering for so long, they don’t even realize it’s affecting them. This can come from trauma, past addictions, chronic pain, and even autoimmune diseases.
But that doesn’t mean that you still can’t experience true freedom, peace, and joy.
That’s what Amber, a Freedom Specialist client, realized after going to a retreat and getting coaching.
Amber battled chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, and mental health problems for over 10 years. She tried everything from conventional medicine to alternative health approaches, and nothing worked. At one point doctors rated her heart inflammation at a 4 on a scale of 5 (where 5 means a heart attack can strike at any moment).
In this episode, Amber shares how she’s eliminated all her physical and mental problems to the shock of her doctors. And how following a “full body approach” can do the same for you, regardless of what you’re struggling with.

If Jesus came back today, do you think you’d drop everything and follow him? How many other people do you think would do the same?

The truth is that knowledge clouds your judgement, creates fake problems, and depletes your joy. These false truths you believe can even turn into wicked root issues that make true happiness impossible.
There’s a reason people say “ignorance is bliss.” When you embrace ignorance, you unlock all the joys of life that are right in front of you right now. It sounds counterintuitive, but it works.
In this episode, you’ll discover how being honestly ignorant makes you happier, helps you build a healthier marriage, and puts your life on “easy mode.”
Listen to this episode now before your knowledge wrecks everything good in your life.
Show highlights include:

Society has conditioned you to chase perfection since we were kids. Your parents praised you if you did your homework. And scolded you if you didn’t eat your veggies.
This idea tricks you into believing your worth as a person is tied to your actions. You feel invisible when you win. And like an utter loser when you make a mistake.
But nothing sacrifices your happiness and joy more than chasing perfection. And it’s not even tied to reality — your worth as a person has nothing to do with how smart, skilled, or perfect you are.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to stop chasing perfection so you can experience happiness on autopilot.

Work is the biggest source of stress, misery, and overwhelm in the world. And it doesn’t even exist. Work is nothing but an expenditure of energy — labeling it “work” causes stress, anxiety, and misery.

But there’s an easy solution for this:
If you stop thinking about it as “work,” it becomes easier, more fun, and more fulfilling. And you experience a deeper sense of happiness too.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to never work again for the rest of your life.

Religion helps many people overcome their struggles. But it also fills people with guilt, shame, and worthlessness which feeds their addictions.
Why?
Because religion is filled with stories about God that aren’t true. Humans have misinterpreted these stories for as long as religion has been around.
Here’s the truth:
God is nothing more than the ability to experience a divine state of being. You can tap into this divine state once you realize the history of God (even if you’re not religious). And once you do, you can throw your addictions out the window.
In this episode, I reveal how better understanding the history of God can free you from your addictions. And I give you a new way to view God (without losing your religion).
Listen to the episode now and discover why God doesn’t want you feeling ashamed and worthless.
Show highlights include:

- How being shamed for your addictive tendencies increases your addictions instead of helping you ditch them (3:02)
- Why psychologists are dead wrong when they blame religion for your addictions (and the true cause of your addictive behaviors) (4:17)
- The weird “God as a Phone” idea that helps you overcome your addictions (6:50)
- How to free yourself from the unfounded, religious stories that fill you with shame (without sacrificing your belief in God) (24:22)

Faith is a confusing term many people misunderstand. But it’s the most powerful force in the universe (even if you’re not religious).
If you’re having trials, struggles, and misery, it’s because of your faith. And if you’re seeing miracles left and right, it’s because of your faith.
Why?
Because faith either creates all your suffering and anguish or builds a life full of joy and freedom.
In this episode, I break down what faith means in layman terms. Once you understand faith, you can use it to improve your life in ways that seem impossible right now.

We fill our minds with false stories, myths, and legends that justify our emotions. While it’s possible to use this human “glitch” to feel happier, most people use it to deepen their depression and worthlessness.
Why does this happen?
Because your brain only entertains a tiny fraction of your entire experience. Once you cling to a myth about yourself, your brain filters for this story and ignores the rest. That’s why so many adults struggle with childhood traumas decades later.
That’s the bad news. The good news?
Once you become aware that you do this, you can stop creating legends and experience reality.
In this episode, you’ll discover how you can stop yourself from doing this so you can experience an unlimited sense of joy. Listen to the episode now.

There are three levels to processing emotion. The first level is feeling like it’s happening to you. The second level is using your emotions as fuel. And the third level is seeing your negative emotions and creating a positive experience from them.
Most people stay stuck in the first level forever. Which means, you’re a victim to your emotions. While the second level is healthier, it can still trap you into some terrible habits and behaviors.
Only the third level gives you a deep sense of freedom and control over your life and emotions.
Here’s the truth:
You don’t have to cope with your emotions or use them as a wicked motivation engine. Once you tap into the third level, you can leave all your anger, depression, and anxiety in the rearview mirror.

Pop culture throws around the word “love.” There are several ideas attached to love, but they’re all wrong.
Here’s why:
Whether you’re listening to a song about love or watching a Disney movie, these ideas imply that love comes from outside you.
But that’s impossible. Your emotions can’t come from somebody else. And if you believe someone else is responsible for making you feel love, you can find yourself in a rabbit hole of pornography. Or other addictive behaviors.
In this episode, I reveal the true definition of love so you don’t fall into the same trap that ruins marriages and your ability to love. Listen to the episode now.
Show highlights include:
- The insidious way pop songs sabotage your ability to love (2:44)
- How embracing a victimhood mentality cripples you for life (3:29)
- Why “Christian Love” often leads to judgement, manipulation, and gaslighting (even if you have good intentions) (12:32)
- The “Love Without Content” approach that creates a deep sense of connection to your spouse (even when you’re arguing) (20:40)
- Why “romantic love” makes marriages fall apart (and how “real love” makes your marriage last forever) (22:10)
- How searching for love leads you down the pornographic rabbit hole (24:12)

Practicing martial arts teaches you more about living a life full of happiness than any self-help book or support group ever could.
Why?
Because martial arts reveal how to use your environment and emotions to your advantage.

In this episode, I share how to go from coping with your emotions to having conscious control over them. Listen now.

In our modern society, we put too much emphasis on our minds, thoughts, and feelings. The problem with this is your mind is just a fraction of your total experience of life.
In fact, your whole body is a brain. And I can prove it. Pinch your finger right now and you’ll experience pain signals shooting up to your brain.
Yet, when it comes to emotional baggage, trauma, addictions, and other mental ailments, we forget about the body and hyperfocus on the mind.
If you want to permanently free yourself from these mental diseases, you have to first start in your body. Ancient cultures from all over the world knew how to do this. But we forgot how to do it in our modern world.
In this episode, I’m revealing how a body-based approach to happiness, health, and well-being is more effective than any therapist could hope to be. Listen now.
Show highlights include:
- The strange way laws prevent therapists from helping you as much as they could (4:09)

Do your problems or negative thought patterns haunt you to your core? No matter what steps you take, you can't get rid of it. Not only is it crippling, but it makes you doubt your entire worth as a person.

In this episode, I share this client story and how using a “Brain Software Upgrade” exercise can finally free you from these persistent problems.
Tune into the episode to set yourself free.

Do you ever wonder what the purpose of life is? Most of the time this happens because you feel negative in some way. You’re searching for a reason that your life should be different.

So how do you overcome this? By simply “being.” Remember: we’re all human beings. Not human becomings or human doings.
When you just “be,” you can see the miracles of life because you’re in touch with the source of life itself. And when you can do this, every moment of your existence becomes a blissful, miraculous experience.

Our minds are often our own worst enemies. They trap us in feedback loops of negative emotions.
But what if your mind became your best friend? Instead of beating you down with negative self-talk, your mind fills you with joy. Happiness becomes automatic. And you experience more freedom than ever before.
Not only is this possible, but it’s simple once you upgrade your “mental software.” When you do this, you direct your life instead of reacting to what’s happening in your mind.

Billions of miracles happen around you every moment of your life. But we never notice them.
Why?
Because we’re so busy chasing spiritual miracles that we forget every moment in life is already a miracle. This ignorance robs you of the pure ecstasy of life.

In our modern society, everyone rushes from Point A to Point B. We never give ourselves a chance to relax and do nothing.
Yet we all wonder where our anxious thoughts and worries come from. Jesus was one of the most accomplished people on earth. And even he took time off. Maybe he was on to something.

Many people feel broken because they tie themselves down to false ideas about who they are.
You’re not your habits, hobbies, and beliefs any more than you are your clothes. These are accumulations that make it impossible for you to change your life. And the more accumulations you have, the more divided you become.
Every new accumulation creates new pieces of you. And make it that much harder to experience the freedom of being yourself.

In the Bible, Jesus forgives an adulterous woman long before she forgives herself. In fact, he reveals to her that the only one condemning her is herself.
Here’s why this matters even if you’re not religious:
Only you are punishing yourself for your sins, mistakes, and past traumas. This creates hopelessness, depression, anxiety, and even addiction. But once you figure out how to stop criticizing yourself, you’ll experience more happiness than you thought possible.

Most people think that addictions come from the substances themselves. Not only is this false, but it sabotages your ability to kick your addictions.
The truth is: All addictions come from you. In fact, there are 3 components powerful enough to make anything addictive. If it contains these 3 things, it could become your next compulsive behavior.
Why?

Addiction doesn’t say more about you as a person than a runny nose. But we often stop looking at ourselves as humans and start seeing ourselves as “addicts”.
Not only does this keep us enslaved to our compulsions, but it fills us with guilt and shame.

In life, we focus on removing the bad behaviors, habits, and actions to become happier. But we never take the time to reflect on good things that are slowly sabotaging our joy.
Take your phone and money for example. Both of these tools can help you live an easier and happier life. But they can also latch onto you like a parasite and slowly destroy your well-being.
They’re what I call phoney friends — and they can be much more lethal than your worst addictions because they’re helpful.

Too often in life we have a “poker face.” We hide our true emotions and pretend to be unfazed by painful feelings. We do this in our relationships, with our spirituality, in our careers, and on social media.
All this bluffing and hiding your authentic self tricks the people around you. Not only does it harm them, but it harms you. Whenever you lie, you force your brain to justify it — which drowns you in worry, fear, and even resentment.
In this episode, I’m revealing how to lift off the mask to your “poker face” so you free yourself from mental hang ups that suffocate your happiness.
Show highlights include:

12-step programs and other well-meaning groups have done a lot of good in the world. But they’ve also ruined people’s sense of freedom and joy.
These programs try to help members escape addictions, but accidentally traumatize people into thinking they’re the only way to treat addiction, depression, and anxiety.
The truth is there isn’t only one way to overcome addiction, self-loathing, anxiety, or depression. And you should steer clear of any program which says they’re the only way.
In this episode, I’m revealing different and slightly weird ways to overcome your suffering (especially if programs, therapists, and other methods never worked for you).
Show highlights include:
- The cold, hard truth about why seeing a therapist never worked for you (and the oddball physical alternative that can finally flip your life around) (5:54)
- Why addiction, depression, and anxiety don’t exist (and how pretending they exist creates a self-fulfilling prophecy that sabotages your sanity) (7:16)
- How suppressing horrible bouts of PTSD amplifies your PTSD (and how embracing your wretched fears finally frees you from it) (9:40)
- The “Movie Method” which helps you overcome your worst emotional and psychological trauma (12:31)
- How to weaponize “trauma” so you can conquer internal psychological warfare that’s keeping you from freedom (15:50)
- The insidious way 12-step programs and other well-meaning programs plant dangerous “trauma seeds” that imprison you (17:19)

Too often in relationships, we put up boundaries and “keep out signs.” This is especially true in marriages.
We think we’re protecting the other person but we’re actually slowly poisoning the marriage and ourselves.
Why?
Because you can’t become one with the other person when boundaries are involved. It’s not easy to become one with your spouse, but nothing will give you a more profound healing experience than becoming one with your partner.
In this episode, I’m revealing how powerful this weird idea is, how it’s already transformed my marriage, and how it can revitalize your marriage too.
Show highlights include:
- How seemingly healthy boundaries subtly sabotage your marriage from the inside out (1:25)
- Why full disclosure usually wrecks marriages (and how to be brutally honest without sacrificing your relationship) (4:36)
- The weird way your spouse can “absorb” your thoughts, feelings, and emotions (and how this strengthens your marriage) (15:26)
- How “merging” with your spouse to become one instantly stops bickering, arguments, and resentment in its tracks (16:10)
- Why compromising with your partner is like drinking poison that slowly ruins you both (17:17)

Most people say they want a beautiful transformation in their life that frees them from all their unhappy thoughts, compulsive behaviors, and addictions. But they don’t realize what they’re asking for — it means you must sacrifice all the good in your life too.
You can’t do this with a magic pill, hypnotist, or 6-week program. The only way to do this is by “becoming freedom.” And you can only become freedom by killing your old self and becoming someone new.
It’s not easy, but it’s possible. And nothing creates unlimited joy and happiness like becoming someone new.
In this episode, I’m revealing how to become someone new to experience joy like you never thought possible.
Show highlights include:
- The weird way cutting out your worst habits and addictions strips you from some of the best parts of your life (and how to become happier than you ever imagined afterwards) (1:41)
- How to “morph” your body and mind to become freedom so you can permanently ditch your addictions (6:06)
- Why trying to conquer your biggest mistakes chains them to you forever (and how to eliminate them for good) (7:20)
- The case for celebrating when your life is falling apart (even if it feels like you’ll never be happy again) (11:34)
- The wacky “punch to the chest method” that instantly frees you from all your pent up emotion you’ve bottled inside (13:37)
- Unhappy with your life? Here’s how one question lets you start it over from scratch today (20:07)
- How clinging to all the good stuff in your life makes it impossible to change the bad (21:00)

Have you ever stressed about something that wasn't nearly as bad as your mind made it out to be? That's because you unconsciously manipulate your emotions to motivate yourself to take action. We’ve all done this since childhood — but that doesn’t mean it’s right.
When you manipulate yourself, it’s impossible to be happy when you’re poisoning yourself with nasty emotions and horror stories about your doomed future. But it’s never true.
What if you could motivate yourself without infecting your body with misery? Not only will you get more done, but you’ll experience a joy for life that you probably never experienced before.
In this episode, I reveal all the insidious ways you manipulate yourself and how to stop manipulating yourself so you can be uncomfortably happy.
Show highlights include:
- How not taking action overloads your body with anxiety to unconsciously manipulate yourself (4:45)
- The “Horror Stories Motivation Method” everyone is programmed with that costs you your sanity and peace (and how to motivate yourself without suffering) (5:16)
- How “Mini Manipulations” nuke your joy (especially if you’re motivating yourself to finish a nagging business project) (6:28)
- Why adding meaning to your life locks you in a cage of agony, stress, and emotional turmoil (7:09)
- How to regain control over your nastiest emotions by simply driving your car (9:33)
- The “One Question Antidote” that instantly banishes anxious, worried, and fearful thoughts from dominating your life (16:39)

When you face obstacles and challenges, it’s easy to suppress your feelings and seek outside validation and comfort instead. Since you were a kid, you’ve been taught that you can find comfort in your suffering because of the coddle culture you live in.
But seeking comfort for your problems doesn’t solve them, it makes them worse. Growing up in a coddle culture actually makes it impossible to face and conquer your problems.
In this episode, I’m revealing how coddle culture ruins your ability to heal yourself. And how you can start to heal whatever pain, illness, or emotional trauma you’re currently dealing with.
Show highlights include:
- Why you should celebrate when you get sick or are in pain (5:32)
- The counterintuitive way taking pills to overcome your mental or physical illnesses robs your body from healing itself and prolongs suffering (7:35)
- How suppressing your nasty emotions fools you into thinking you’ve conquered them (which makes them creep back into your life years later) (8:34)
- The “Perception Method’ that nukes your fears that keeps you from solving your problems (13:10)
- How coddle culture overloads your body with misery by making it seem like you’re perfectly comfortable (14:51)
- The insidious way comforting someone prevents them from ever solving their issues (and how to help them instead) (16:02)
- The “Spontaneous Remission Secret” that almost instantly eliminates all your pain, illness, and emotional trauma (18:35)

When you put someone up on a pedestal, you throw yourself down in a pit. And when you look at others as beneath you, you discount their opinions and beliefs.
Either type of comparison creates unnecessary suffering. Instead, if you just looked, you'd find that life is more beautiful when you appreciate the people around you.
In this episode, I’m revealing the dangers of comparison and how to stop looking up to or down at the people in your life. Nothing will create more happiness in your life than the secrets I shared during this episode.
Show highlights include:
- The “USB Method” for operating your body and mind that makes happiness burst through every cell in your body (2:55)
- Why putting anyone on a pedestal suffocates your self-esteem (even if it’s Jesus) (4:30)
- The “Dashboard Lights Technique” for dealing with your nasty emotions without falling back into your addictive tendencies (6:39)
- How to transform seething anger into a beautiful experience by not suppressing it (7:28)
- The sneaky way praying is a form of shifting responsibility away from you (15:51)

The Bible has been through billions of different interpretations. That means there’s no reliable way to truly understand what the originator meant.
There’s a problem with following sacred books like the Bible: We create our own gospels based on our perceptions and then browbeat other people into believing it. This cripples our relationships, self-esteem, and general sense of wellbeing.
If your interpretation is correct, you don’t need to prove it to other people.
In this episode, I’m revealing how to stop being manipulated by the Bible so you can find peace in real life (even if it seems like the Bible disagrees with your decisions).
Show highlights include:
- The insidious way the Bible manipulates you and fills you with needless suffering (even if the Bible has improved your life) (0:38)
- How “weaponized scripture” damages your sense of peace (4:45)
- Why your insecurities “force” you to impose your views on others and sabotage your relationships (16:06)
- How misinterpreting scripture stunts your ability to improve yourself (and how taking scripture to real life combats this) (20:43)

Many of us think that we need to be passionate about something to live a fulfilling life. But that’s not true.
In fact, you seek passion in the first place because you’ve taught yourself to suffer. By thinking there’s something to fix about you, you look for passion and purpose as antidotes to the misery you’ve manufactured.
But when you eliminate your suffering, you don’t need a purpose or passion. Instead, you realize that incredible bliss is always at your fingertips.
In this episode, I’m revealing how to eliminate passion so you can free yourself from all of your suffering.
Show highlights include:
- How being passionate about other people’s suffering prevents you from functioning at a high level (3:45)
- Why you should never worry about someone else again (especially if you’re concerned for their health or wellbeing) (4:20)
- The sneaky way suffering gives you comfort and convinces you it’s good for you (7:28)
- How Hollywood tricks you into being addicted to misery (8:37)
- Why a long, painful illness “resets” your internal programming and makes infinite bliss easy to obtain (16:16)

There’s some divine intelligence inside you that’s responsible for all of your growing and living.
Here’s what that means for you:
You don’t need to “fix” your problems. You don’t need to battle your addictive behaviors and tendencies every day. All you have to do is get out of your own way and let these problems resolve themselves.
It sounds counterintuitive, but it’s more effective than any other known method.
In this episode, I reveal how to get out of your own way so your biggest mental hangups dissolve into nothing.
Show highlights include:

- How struggling transforms mundane breathing techniques into a life-preserving tool that unchains you from mental turmoil (5:25)
- Why your personality causes all your emotional conflicts (and how to “free” yourself from your personality) (9:17)

Throughout your life, you’ve been brainwashed into using other peoples’ eyes and ears to live your life. And it’s usually from people with the best intentions.
Even revered historical figures like the stoic philosophers subconsciously programmed you. But when you let other authorities guide your life, you trade in your eyes and ears for theirs.
When you don’t follow your own eyes and ears, you’re letting other people live your life for you. And nothing puts you on the fast track to misery and suffering more than letting other people live your life.
In this episode, I’m revealing why never trusting anyone again gives you freedom to be as happy as you can possibly be.
Show highlights include:
- The insidious way the great stoic philosopher Epictetus prevents you from achieving unlimited happiness (6:06)
- Why working hard isn’t a prerequisite for a joy-filled life (6:47)
- How the most motivating books and poems drown you in suffering (and how to challenge everything you believe) (9:26)

- Why never trusting anyone gives you a sense of freedom most can’t even dream about (17:09)
- The only proven way to build real confidence (and how to use this skill today) (18:48)

We don’t really know who we are. So we create imaginary stories in our head so we can understand ourselves better.
But these stories are at the root of all your suffering. The second you identify with a hobby, skill, religion, shortcoming, or belief, you invite unnecessary problems into your life.
What if nothing is wrong with you? And nothing has ever been wrong with you?
In this episode, I’m revealing why there’s nothing to fix about you — so you can invite peace and joy into your life for good.
Show highlights include:

- Why protecting your reputation leads to your worst compulsive behaviors (7:17)
- How letting go of all the “Fake IDs” you’ve given yourself helps you overcome all of your suffering (8:26)

Addiction is no more of a spiritual problem than picking your nose.
In fact, it wasn’t until the early 1900s that addiction was even considered a spiritual problem.
Here’s why this matters for you:
Having addictive tendencies or compulsive behaviors doesn’t mean you’re spiritually bankrupt. Instead, it means that your body and mind are working properly — but your limiting beliefs about addiction are holding you back.
If you want to dismantle your limiting beliefs and quit your addictions for good then check out this episode.
Show highlights include:
- Scientific proof that addiction is no more real than Bigfoot (and how that empowers you to free yourself from addiction) (5:18)

- 2 things that always happen when your compulsive behaviors rear their ugly heads (11:43)

When you examine addiction up close and personal you realize something:
You’re addicted to your memories of your first experiences of your addiction — not to the thing itself. This is why it’s never been proven that addictive substances or behaviors exist.
In other words, your nostalgia seeps into your brain and convinces you to give into your addictions (even if they leave you unsatisfied afterwards).
In this episode, I’m revealing why nostalgia is so powerful and how to train your mind to ignore it so you can take addiction completely off of your “menu.”
Show highlights include:
- The sneaky way your nostalgia jacks up your addictive tendencies without you even realizing it (3:20)
- How gobbing up pints of ice cream helps you dump your addictions for good (8:50)

Most of us put life on “extreme difficulty” mode. We make life excruciatingly hard by creating problems out of thin air then beating ourselves up after we can’t solve them.
But you don’t have to live life this way. If you stop creating problems, most of your suffering disappears almost instantly.
It sounds wacky, but it works better than any other program I’ve tried.
In this episode, I’m sharing how letting go of your issues gets rid of them much faster than trying to solve them.
Show highlights include:
- How subconscious negative affirmations zap your energy and excitement levels without you even realizing it (6:02)

Fear of failure haunts many of us. When we’re afraid to fail, we make more mistakes, drain our happiness, and fill ourselves with self-doubt.
But what if failure wasn’t real?
The fortunate truth is: you create failure inside your own head — it doesn't exist outside of your head.
In this episode, I’m revealing why failure doesn’t exist so you can finally experience true joy and tremendous success.
Show highlights include:
- How unfair childhood punishments create an impending feeling of doom in our adult lives (5:32)
- Why pretending failure doesn’t exist quickly suffocates your fear of failure (8:59)
- The “Unconscious Experiment” that proves you can’t actually fail (especially if you feel like you’re a failure) (11:31)
- How hacking your memory through your 5 senses eliminates even your most humiliating failures (12:43)
- The “100% Success Mindset” that boosts your confidence overnight (especially when you feel like a failure) (16:30)

You get in your own way more than you think. This is especially true when you want something — like more money, a better relationship with your spouse, or to ditch your mental health problems.
Here’s the trouble:
The more you want something, the harder it is to get it. It goes against what every motivational speaker will tell you, but it’s true.
Instead of wanting something, you need to become it. For example, if you want a happier life, you have to become happiness first.
In this episode, I’m revealing how to become happiness and freedom so you can always access it (even in your darkest moments).
Show highlights include:
- How your ancient “survival skills” betray you and create anxiety (and the 3-word trick to stop it) (4:38)
- The insidious way wanting something poisons your psyche and makes you subconsciously avoid it (8:13)
- The admittedly difficult way to always be filled with joy (even when you can’t pay your bills or fight with your spouse) (10:52)
- The “Building Happiness Approach” that makes you more creative, more intelligent, physically stronger, and improves your immune system (16:00)

There’s a lot of misinterpretation about the Garden of Eden story in the bible. And unfortunately, we can trace back nearly all of human suffering to one big lie that Satan told Eve in that story.
That lie is this: that you are not good enough. That God created everything in the world perfectly, but somehow screwed up with you. Nothing can be further from the truth.
In this episode, I’m revealing my observations from the Garden of Eden story, so you can finally swap out your misery for joy.
Show highlights include:
- How the Garden of Eden story “taints” your outlook on life (and how changing your perspective fills you with endless joy) (4:45)

- How you subconsciously plant seeds of catastrophe in your mind that creates a self-fulfilling procephy of misery (16:03)

Context is everything — and this is particularly true with your unique mental health characteristics. The problem is mental health “experts” prescribe one solution for every person. And this blinds you from seeing your mental quirks as a gift.

In this episode, I’m sharing how to reframe your mental health issues so you can use them to create more joy in your life than you ever thought possible.

Authority attacks you from all angles — religion, science, your parents, and even society. But you become powerless when you believe something has authority over you.
For example, I did energy work on someone struggling with trauma at a recent retreat. After I healed him, someone who believed he had a demon exorcism asked me what authority I had to heal him since it wasn’t in Jesus’s name.
He didn’t see that the person was relieved of his trauma. He was only concerned about the lack of authority I had to do so. And this happens all the time in your own life on a smaller scale.
In this episode, I’m shining light on how the language you use creates biases that can prevent you from healing yourself. That way, you can challenge your own prejudices that stop you from finding joy.
Here Are The Show Highlights:
- Why being a mindless fool supercharges your marriage and career (8:59)
- How your language sabotages your spirit and prevents you from healing yourself (16:40)

- How science and religion drowns you in misery (even if that’s not their intention) (20:58)

When most people think of orgasms, they think of sex. But what if I told you that you could have orgasmic experiences outside of your bedroom?
We all have felt orgasms that weren’t because of sex — but our language prevented us from thinking of it like that.
But the truth is, you can train your nervous system to give you an unlimited amount of orgasmic pleasure (without relying on sex, drugs, or anything else outside of you).
In this episode, I’m revealing why being fully alive is the best way to experience an orgasmic life and how you can get started today.

Are compliments always good?
On the surface, it seems that complimenting others and yourself helps build your confidence. But if you look deeper, you see that it destroys your confidence.
More:
When you give others compliments, you’re training them to always worry about what others think. Nothing is more deadly than that.
In this episode, I’m revealing why compliments and insults are more similar than you think and how to give compliments that don’t cause the other person to self-destruct.

Society, culture, and tradition “force” a lot of beliefs on us from our childhood. As we grow older, we start to identify with these different beliefs. For example, gender roles and gender identity.
What if there was no such thing as masucline or feminine energy? Or toxic masculinity and toxic femininity? Do you think you’d be worried if you’re “man” enough or “woman” enough?

As humans, we often get disgusted by other people. But the only reason we have an emotional reaction to other people is because we see that vulgar behavior in ourselves.
For example, when you get annoyed by seeing someone else stuff their face it’s because in some area of your life, you’re neglecting your health.

Having a faith crisis can be difficult and lonely. It’s not easy to leave your church and tell your family — especially if you feel like you’ve been betrayed by your beliefs.
But a faith crisis can also be graceful. It doesn’t have to be a road filled with anger, bitterness, and resentment. And it can actually bring you closer with God too.

Taste buds are a lot like beliefs. They change over time. And they give us a “flavor” for how we experience food and life.

Most people believe the lie that you need an underlying “why” to be successful. This sends people down the wrong path — they think becoming a better person will help them make more money.

The truth is you don’t need to understand something to get results. You just have to do the work.

From childhood, we have fed our minds with different beliefs to help us get through life. Some beliefs empower us, while others slowly wreck our lives.

We take sound for granted. When we hear something, we don’t give ourselves enough credit — but we’re the one creating the sound! Otherwise, it would only be vibrations.

I’ve noticed a lot of support groups zeroing in on being addicted to lust. The trouble with thinking you’re addicted to lust is that lust doesn’t exist — it’s simply an experience.

Most people try to solve their problems by simply talking about them. But this only deals with your thinking brain — not your sensing or feeling brain.
That’s why you can talk endlessly about all your problems, but you can’t kick the root cause of why you feel that way.

Religion is supposed to lift you up. But too often, we fall into the trap of letting authority figures indoctrinate us — whether it comes from religion, a 12-step program, or something else.
Falling into this trap makes finding true happiness impossible.
Why?
Because every person on the planet is unique and needs unique solutions to fix their problems. If you find something that works for you, use it. If it doesn’t, move on to another solution.
In this episode I’m revealing why so many people fall into this indoctrination trap, how to free yourself from it, and how to add God into your life regardless of what you’re doing.

It’s in our human nature to glamorize the past — both in our own lives and in the stories we learned growing up. For example, the Bible is full of mysticism that we think we’ve lost today.
But the past is no different than right now. It’s simply the stories we tell ourselves that make us romanticize the past and ruin our opportunity to recreate it in the present.
Our beliefs are stronger than we give them credit for. For example, if you believe you’re depressed, finding happiness will be impossible. On the flip side, if you believe you’re happy, happiness will naturally come to you.
In this episode, I’m revealing how to remove history’s shine so that you can harness the same magic from the past to enhance your life today.

We live in a “scapegoat society.” From an early age, you’ve been subconsciously trained to blame others for your problems instead of yourself— whether your brainwashing comes from religion, school, your parents, or therapy.

Dogs see things differently than humans. So which one sees what’s actually there?
The truth is neither dogs nor humans see reality as it is. Instead, our brains make up images in our minds — based on what we believe to be true about the world. In other words, your vision is no better (or worse) than a dog’s vision.
This is so important because it means your problems aren’t actually there. You see problems because your mind is playing tricks on you.

Our entire society thinks in terms of winning and losing.
But can you really “win” or “lose” something? The truth is, there is no such thing as winning and losing.
Winning is something we’ve created to give ourselves permission to feel happy and excited about life. But what if you could create happiness and excitement inside yourself without relying on external circumstances? Would you start living a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life?

Humans tend to make a big deal out of tiny problems. You’ve been trained your entire life — from your first homework assignment to your next job interview — to rely on fear to make decisions.

Most addiction experts are flat out wrong. In fact, they usually trap you in a cycle of victimhood and helplessness that makes it impossible to ditch your addictions.

Relapsing is usually considered a bad thing. But is it really that bad?

There are two main philosophies guiding all of our lives. You either try to take control of every aspect of your life. Or you trust in the cosmos that everything will work out.
And both seem pretty silly on the surface. Trying to control everything never works and ends in anxiety, depression, and worry. But passively hoping that everything will work out is equally as dangerous to your success.
However, trying to control everything is more dangerous than the other philosophy.
Why?
Because control is rooted in fear. It’s true that you can’t passively sit back and let life happen to you, but trying to control everything creates far more misery and destruction.
In this episode, I’m sharing with you how to apply both of these philosophies in your own life so you can create a better, happier life instead of creating more agony and despair.

Imagine how much easier your life would be if you felt calm and at peace regardless of what life throws at you. Most of your internal battles with yourself would instantly vanish.
