    A “How-To” with Gay Hendricks

    Mike is psyched to share today’s new podcast episode with Gay Hendricks because he guarantees it will have you rethinking your relationship with "stuff."

    Gay opened Mike's eyes to some profound insights about how eliminating excess possessions and complications can create more space for your true genius to flourish.

    Gay talked about going through his closet each year and getting rid of anything he doesn't absolutely love wearing. Imagine only surrounding yourself with clothes that give you an "erotic experience" when you put them on!

    They also explored the concept of identifying the handful of people who light up when you enter the room - and prioritizing intimacy with them over shallow social obligations. Gay's annual "table of eight" tradition for ringing in the New Year is a fascinating exercise in conscious relating.

    This episode will inspire you to start editing out the nonessentials so you can focus on what you truly love. You may even find yourself ordering some luxuriously soft merino wool t-shirts or cashmere socks from Wales after listening!

    Whether you're drowning in clutter, overwhelmed by commitments, or just feel stuck in a rut, this conversation gives you an amazing recipe for injecting more simplicity (and love!) into your daily life. It's bound to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

  • 5 Steps To Ending Period Pain the Easy Way
    Jan 5 2024

    Get ready for something TOTALLY different on this week's podcast…


    As you know, Gay and Mike like to go off the beaten path and get out of our comfort zones sometimes.


    Well, this week they went WAY out of their comfort zone and talked with an amazing young woman, Christine Marie Quigless, about something they never thought they'd be discussing on a podcast - women's periods!


    Not our usual topic, but hear us out… Christine has dedicated her life to helping women have a better, easier monthly cycle. She's written a book all about the science and psychology behind it called, “Ending Period Pain the Easy Way.”


    And here's the cool part - what she's discovered can teach us guys a LOT about ourselves too. The same principles of tuning into your body's wisdom apply whether you're a man or woman.


    Christine is so passionate and articulate. The story of how she met Gay and ended up speaking with him and Mike is pure conscious luck in action. She's on a mission to change women's lives, and the insights she shared have opened my eyes in all kinds of unexpected ways.


    So come with an open mind and get ready for a fun, frank conversation about something that affects half the human population.


    Not only will you learn a ton, but you'll be thoroughly entertained. Christine has so much heart and her enthusiasm is downright infectious. Mike and Gay were cracking up through parts of the convo. (Let's just say she does NOT hold back. The girl's got no filter and they loved it.)
