The Mind Your Business Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

In today's episode, we're continuing our series on transformative concepts that, while seemingly unrelated to business, are designed to elevate your performance, amplify your personal power, and ultimately, boost your income.

We’re unveiling two powerful, yet invisible tools that you can use to significantly expand abundance in your life and business. However, as with what we shared last week, remember that these tools require consistent practice to make a tangible impact! 

Is there something we talked about in these last two episodes that has resonated the most with you? We want to hear about it! Take a screenshot of you listening on your device, post it to your Instagram Stories and tag us, @jameswedmore and @jeunejenni. 

In this episode you’ll hear:

• One of the “four immeasurables” of Buddhism that is the opposite of envy and jealousy, and how it can be a cornerstone of your success

• The latest neuroscience insights on connectedness and why this was a focal point at our recent BBD Next Level retreat

• Noticeable changes will occur when you start celebrating the successes of others using this first tool 

• A powerful mindset shift on "failure" and the lessons children can teach us about what true success is, and isn't

• A look at the comparison trap, real-life examples of it in action, and strategies you can use to avoid this mindset

• The sacred law that is present in nature and involves keeping a good energetic balance for doing good and helping others

• How this law relates to entrepreneurs selling services and the energy exchange between both sides

There are a lot of topics that I’ve been thinking about sharing with our BBD Next Level members at our upcoming retreat, and I want to start introducing them here on the podcast as well, as these things can significantly help you on your own personal, spiritual and transformational growth journey. You’ve heard me talk about the power of letting go, and in today’s episode, we’re going deeper with a conversation on the power of detachment, which is without a doubt an essential ingredient for boosting performance in life in business.  

If there are places where you feel like you’re giving your power away, there’s most likely attachment there. By developing an equanimous mind and mastering the art of non-attachment, it will help bring awareness to these areas for you. The best part? When you live and operate from a place of detachment, you will find that this is one of the most powerful places that you can be! 

Are there areas in your life and business where you are attached to something, such a particular result or an outcome? We want to hear about it from you! Take a screenshot of you listening on your device, post it to your Instagram Stories and tag us, @jameswedmore and @jeunejenni. 

In this episode you’ll hear:

• A look at the heaviness and burden that comes with attachment and how obtaining your goal actually becomes so much easier when there is no attachment to the outcome

• Some definitions of what attachment is and where much of it stems from in regards to entrepreneurship

• A reframe I have for you that will have you looking at goal setting in a completely different way  

• Where to start first in order to find a state of detachment

• What research tells us about negativity bias and the ultimate antidote to get out of a disempowered state if you find yourself in one

Today’s episode is an incredible, unique special one that is all about……sex. You may ask why we want to talk about this on the podcast, but so much of relationships and intimacy really does tie into business, as you’ll learn about today, as well as in our overall happiness in life. 

The quality of your life is absolutely connected with and correlated to the quality of the relationships that you have, which is why we’re so excited to introduce you to our good friends, Vanessa and Xander Marin, to cover these topics! 

Vanessa is a licensed psychotherapist with 20 years of experience in the sex therapy field, and Xander is a regular dude who’s been married to a sex therapist for over a decade! Together, their mission is to take the intimidation out of getting intimate, and they are the authors of the New York Times best selling book, Sex Talks: The Five Conversations That Will Transform Your Love Life, which you can get right now at https://sextalksbook.com/!
