“The Power of Consistency, Mastering Your Brain States, Wisdom from Matthew McConaughey | EP 047

We’re back, and we’re leveling up. In this episode, we recap Will McGuire’s last visit, hype up our plans to bring on new, fascinating guests, and celebrate sticking with this podcast journey. Spoiler alert: we’re kind of proud of ourselves.

We dive into the life hacks that are changing our game: yoga for better sleep, avoiding your phone in the morning, and hypnotizing yourself into becoming the best version of you.

Along the way, we tackle some hard truths: stop half-assing things (shoutout #MatthewMcConaughey), control the controllable (thanks, John Cena), and admit that scrolling on social media might be ruining your brain (yikes). But hey, Deepak Chopra says you do have enough time to meditate, so there’s hope.

As always, we sprinkle in some ridiculous tangents—color TV is the root of all evil, #veganrecipes are everywhere on our Instagram feed, and apparently Tom Glavine is the number 47 GOAT. Plus, every time you watch our #podcast , you’re helping us feed our dogs. What’s not to love?
