Why are you letting life problems affect your personal commitments when the same doesn’t happen to your professional commitments? In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian opens up with this question. Our personal goals somehow are thrown under the bus at the first opportunity and that is something that anyone going through a deep change needs to understand, analyze and try to adjust.

Being a “professional” is a concept that does not only apply in the context of a successful career. Being a professional also means committing to our goals daily when it comes to fitness, health, wellness, and physical performance. When we let life situations get in the way of our health goals, it’s a sign that we are actually sabotaging ourselves subconsciously and that is not a move that dedicated professionals do.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian explains the importance of ‘paying the price of change’. We all know that changes are not always easy, but the majority of time they are necessary and we only make effective and permanent changes when the pain of staying the same is too much, or at least greater than the pain of being different. Are you prepared to compare the two and take the leap?

With a new year approaching, it’s essential to take an inventory of our lives: what is working and what is not? Which habits are serving me and which aren’t? Which negative patterns am I willing to sacrifice and which I’m not? When we ask ourselves simple questions like these, it becomes easy to analyze how we want our life to be moving forward and how high is the price we are ready to pay. Tune in!

Creating success in life is a solo process. We cannot rely on someone else or something external to provide success for us because most of our habits, actions, and decisions (the components of our success) are the byproduct of our internal control. Success is also the result of what we do with our time: if we are scrolling on social media or actually being productive, we are going to have different perspectives on success.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian unpacks the concept of success and the many aspects of achieving success. Productivity, healthy habits, focus, and structure are all major components of success, but there’s one thing that is even more important: taking action. We won’t know how successful we can be in the long term if we don’t take action in the short term, right? Tune in and learn more!

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian reflects on potential and how we can all be the best version of ourselves if we push hard enough. Recalling some moments of his life when he decided to change for good, Brian encourages you to do the same: take a leap of faith, start your change today, and improve yourself now to see the results in all areas of life tomorrow.

Making a parallel with his own experiences and the opportunities he had in life, Brian talks about his son’s potential and the great things coming for him shortly. The good thing about reflecting on our own choices is that we can better guide the next generation, highlighting their strong points and helping with their flaws. At the end of the day, we all have the potential to turn weaknesses into strengths. Tune in!

Getting 1% better every day is not an easy task. How can we measure getting 1% better in an analytical way so we can collect data and always improve? In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian explains to you how you can come up with easy ways to strengthen your routine and take a few moments during the 24 hours to do something that will deliver change in the future.

Brian also explains this idea of “compound interest”. This term is the go-to of this podcast when it comes to pursuing goals the right way. If you have listened to the show for a while now, you probably have already heard of it, and it means: start small. All of your decisions, the new habits you want to implement, the new choices you want to make, and the better life you want to live, begin with small steps. There’s no other way. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Structuring your calendar and organizing your routine is crucial to getting to the place you want to be. You won’t get 1% better every day if you let the day happen to you instead of you happening to the day;
• Brian does the math for you: if you take 15 minutes out of the 24 hours you have in a day to change your perspective and do something new, this alone is a huge investment;
• Compound interest: starting small and gradually improving your health and fitness is the first step to creating long-lasting results.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian has an honest conversation with Joe Sheehey. Joe is the founder and CEO of Cured Nutrition, a supplement company whose mission is to highlight the healing power of nature with exclusive products. The foundation of Cured and Joe’s background are particularly connected. One of the lowest moments for Joe inspired him to follow this entrepreneurial path.

Joe unpacks these moments for us and talks about how the idea of building a business around functional nature-sourced supplements came to him. According to Joe, we live in a world where the narrative controls everything, and the narrative around cannabis and cannabis-related products has always been disruptive and very intimidating. This approach created an unfair stigma around cannabis and one of Joe’s missions is to change this. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Joe shares a lot about his background: from his lowest moments when he was extremely depressive, to utilizing these circumstances to create something great;
• Joe talks about how he started his entrepreneurial journey. He realized that he didn’t need permission from someone to do what he wanted to do and quit his job;
• The whole mission of Cured Nutrition is based on the core values the team has been following ever since its foundation: Nature, Responsibility, and Service;
• Bodybuilding has been a huge part of Joe’s life but the context around it has changed: what once helped him overcome depression, suddenly turned into a cause for anxiety due to steroid use.
• Joe unpacks the details of Cured’s portfolio of products, highlighting the proper use of cannabinoids, functional mushrooms, and adaptogens.

Make no mistake: in order to change your habits and live a healthier lifestyle there is only one decision to make and it’s committing to your goals. All of the other daily micro decisions are the byproduct of this greater decision; they are all embedded in this macro choice, which is commitment. The decisions you make of getting up early, having a balanced meal, and going to the gym are all an illusion at a certain point.

In this episode of The Success Lift, Brian unpacks this idea for you. He explains that there’s no negotiation with yourself: you are committed or you are not. The daily habits you need to follow to live a better life are part of the contract you signed when you chose to commit to your goals. There’s no other way. And if you want to make only one choice instead of several other daily choices, choose to apply to the Elite Dad Jumpstart.

Key Highlights

• There’s no one right way to be motivated. The key is to reframe your mentality from: “I have to do this” to “I get to do this” or “I choose to do this”;
• Choosing to make good choices takes time, but once you start doing it over and over and over again, it becomes easier;
• It’s important to identify within yourself if you are interested or committed, and ask yourself this question: ‘Am I willing to do the necessary things to achieve my goals?’
• It can feel frightening to decide to take the leap and transform your life, but on the other side of this fear and anxiety, you will find the better version of yourself.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian welcomes his good friend Brian Carney to talk all things financial planning, saving money, podcasting, and creating simple solutions in life. Brian Carney is the co-founder of RiversEdge Advisors – a company that helps executives, entrepreneurs, business owners, and leaders of all kinds to understand finances and find the right solutions when it comes to money.

Brian also shares a few of his struggles when it comes to avoiding drinking too much or drinking at all on the weekends. During the 5 day cycle of a workweek, it can be easy to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but understandably we all fall off track Saturday and Sunday. In addition, Brian talks about podcasting and his show “Happy Half Hour with an Entrepreneur”. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Financial planning doesn’t need to be complicated. We can all understand it, make it easier, and make it work for us;
• It’s not easy to save money and have good financial planning but these simple concepts are the reason our life moves forward;
• Goals should be maintained during the weekend too. If we keep a balanced healthy lifestyle 7 days a week, we don’t need to “get on track” for 5 days and “get off track” the other 2.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian shares a few easy and simple strategies to keep our goals in check in the next three months, through the end of this year. It’s not uncommon to fall off track during the holidays: parties, barbecues, and friends’ reunions tend to happen during this period. However, if we take our goals seriously when it comes to nutrition and fitness, we can balance it all.

Brian explains that it’s important to enjoy your life, your family, and yourself during the holidays, but there are a few strategies you can follow to keep things “under control”. On the other hand, it’s important to remember that these 90 days can make a tremendous difference in what you’re going to look like and feel like by 2023. Why not start right now by being the person you want to be in 3 months?

Key Highlights

• What if you put a lot of effort in most of the days (not necessarily all of them) to achieve the things you want until the rest of the year?
• The more we start to see results both physically and mentally, the more we want to keep going but it’s important to remember that changes happen over time;
• Brian’s words: “You will fall to the level of your standards, you will not rise to your goals”.

Nowadays, Mike offers retreats and special fitness programs where he mentors men of all ages who want to raise their capacity to do hard things.

Gaining clarity, fighting discomfort, improving mindset, and understanding the connection between mind, body & soul are all things that Mike’s retreats provide. Mike also shares his methodology with fasting, explaining that is more than a physical improvement: he gets a spiritual result as well. Tune in to listen to the conversation!

Key Highlights

• Mike talks about the feedback he gets from the participants that attend his retreats; the sense of community and support helps a lot of them to overcome their inner limitations;
• Mike explains the importance of going through experiences – like his retreats – with intention and how you can break patterns and change habits afterward;
• The experience of fatherhood has already been transforming Mike’s vision and expectations;
• Going through moments of discomfort is crucial to gain clarity and becoming stronger;

In this special episode, Brian takes you through a Q&A from his Instagram. Learn all the things you need to know to start changing your body for good, how to create momentum to keep showing up for yourself day after day (even if you don’t feel like it), and what are the most beneficial supplements to help you perform better, replenish your body, and overall feel healthier.

Brian highlights the major difference between being interested in something versus being committed. When we talk about fitness, changing body composition, or dieting, we need to be very clear on which one of those paths we will be following: the path of interest where you sort of want to change but life gets in the way and you eventually give up, or the path of commitment where you are all in and cannot wait to see the results derived from your effort.

Key Highlights

• Once you decide to change for good, it’s important to know that your body won’t start changing immediately; it takes time and patience;
• The weekend is probably the most important part of the week. It’s when our levels of commitment need to match how badly we want the goals.

In this episode, Brian welcomes Zach Rininger. Zack talks about different concepts and habits that make sense for him to follow a healthy lifestyle. Zach explains that, not only for him but for everyone seeking to have a healthier life, commitment is the key: we can only go to a certain point without fully committing. In terms of fitness, eventually, we need to decide if we are completely dedicated or merely interested.

At the same time, the knowledge to achieve fitness goals is also required. Zach speaks about the importance of knowing some things about calories, protein intake, macronutrients, and how to optimize diets. Everything we put inside our bodies has a level of energy associated with it and will impact our performance in some capacity. Changing our bodies for good, like it or not, requires some sacrifice. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Everything we do daily takes energy: we need to be prepared for a workout for example, but also for daily activities;
• People keep avoiding investing in themselves for some reason when investing in ourselves should be the first thing on our priority list;
• Commitment is the first step to achieving fitness goals and that includes sacrificing certain habits.

Tim McMahon is the author of ‘Push the Tarp’, a story about mindset work and authentic leadership. In this conversation, Brian and Tim talk about the writing process of the book and the life situations that inspired him to tell this story.

They also discuss the importance of having people in our lives that push us forward somehow. When we fear our decisions and our choices and we don’t want to be seen as failures, it’s fundamental to have someone to hold us accountable during these hard times. This idea can be applied to many areas of life: a new job, a coaching career, fitness, sports, and family.

Routines are also very important according to Tim: our routine needs to be created for our success. Work, meditation, creative moments… all of that should be implemented into our day so we can show up our best. Tune in to listen to the whole conversation!

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian talks about the concept of not waiting around for things to get bad to only then do something about it. Taking the leap today and changing habits today will only do wonders for you in the future. That’s why it’s so hard to change: we don’t see results instantly… it takes time. But that’s also the beauty of it, we need to trust and believe in the process.

Making a parallel with finances, Brian explains that paying for things that will not fulfill you months from now is not worth it. What are you spending your money on? What activities and habits are you focusing on? Your health is worth every penny so ask yourself this question: Are “healthy things” too expensive or is it just me who is spending money on things that make me unhealthy? Tune in to learn more!

Key Highlights

• Changing things now is the key to being healthy and happy in the future. We might think that that’s not the case but today’s decisions impact tomorrow’s results.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian revisits one of the episodes recorded at the end of last year’s summer. Throughout the episode, Brian encourages everyone to adopt a new fresh mindset for the rest of the year in terms of nutrition, fitness, healthy habits, work, and family. Taking summertime to replenish, reset, and recharge the energy for what’s coming next can help you immensely.

The episode also highlights the importance of not waiting to change. The great majority of people wait for the perfect moment to start a new routine, engage in new habits, and work on self-development. But the truth is: the perfect time doesn’t exist, and if it does, it’s right now. The only one responsible for the next season of your life is you! Tune in to listen to the whole episode.

Key Highlights

• You don’t need to wait for your life to be “perfect” to start making healthy changes in your routine!

H.V.M.N. is a company that believes that everything you put into your body has an important role in your longevity, performance, and overall health. In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian welcomes Michael Brandt, co-Founder, and CEO of H.V.M.N. to discuss the benefits of ketones. A natural source of fuel for the body, ketones are known to create energy not only for the body but also for the brain.

Michael explains that following a nutrition philosophy enriched with ketones is different from following the keto diet – but they can be used in combination to create optimal results. Ketones can be measured in several ways, are a key biomarker of our health, and, according to research, can help with some diseases such as Alzheimer's. Tune in to learn more about ketones and H.V.M.N.’s mission.

Key Highlights

• Ketones can – and should – be used in combination with some other important daily habits and also a nutritious diet;
• Using ketones is a tool in the toolbox to optimize health: it creates energy within the body while consuming less oxygen;
• Having a strong foundation in our health is a key step to living longer, feeling good, and performing better;
• We shouldn’t be focusing only on work all the time the same way we shouldn’t be relaxing all the time – it’s important to have balance in life;

After a getaway with his wife, Brian has some advice for you. In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, he speaks about the importance of taking a break from the business, the routine, and even from your kids, and just getting away for a while. With half of the year gone already, we should all reserve some time to reset, replenish and prepare for the rest of the year. This pause will only do good.

Brian shares what he has learned from his trip to Montana and some essential tips to implement once you are in trip mode. Enjoying nature, appreciating the little moments, disconnecting from social media, and adopting new habits are just a few of these tips. Daily obligations and busy routines can be very tiring – especially if you have to balance it all: a household, a job, parenthood, and fitness.

Key Highlights

• Eating healthy while traveling is as important as it is when following a routine;
• Nature is too beautiful not to be appreciated. Go out, take a walk, and watch the sun and the trees, even if you do it between tasks;
• Connecting with like-minded people while traveling is a smart way to come back to the routine refreshed and with new ideas.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian welcomes Mike Millner to talk all things mindset, fitness, healthy habits, and tracking goals without obsessing about it. Mike’s content on social media – via Instagram, e-mail marketing, or podcasting – is the perfect combination of personal & physical development with the true concept of fitness. Today, Mike dives deep into this combination to give us the best tips.

Mike explains that in order to make progress with fitness, the routine doesn’t necessarily need to be perfect. Rather than having a bulletproof plan, we need to focus on consistency, daily and easy-to-follow habits, and willpower. Throughout the conversation, Mike also talks about this idea of ‘minimal effective dose’, which means doing the basic and the little things that actually work in order to achieve goals.

Key Highlights

• Mike is extremely result-driven, but when it comes to fitness he explains that we have to play the long game and be patient with goals;
• No matter how bad the day goes, it’s important to choose 1 to 3 things to accomplish regardless;
• Don’t obsess over data; drop the idea of tracking data just to feel good and instead track data that is actually important;
• Once you define success, you define failure.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian interviews Bill O’Herron to discuss the importance of focusing on what matters. Bill explains that we are all filled with high amounts of emotions – and different emotions come to the surface on a daily basis. We can pay attention to each and every one of them or we can practice stillness in order to not be affected by them. We do that by one good old habit: meditation.

Bill shares a lot about the benefits of incorporating meditation and breathwork into our daily lives. He explains that it helps us deal with all sources of sentiments, it helps us with productivity, it encourages us to face our fears, and it supports us in bettering professional and personal relationships. Besides meditating with intent, Bill also highlights that is fundamental to take a moment and identify what was felt during the practice. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Emotions don’t allow us to focus on what matters: that’s why meditation can make a huge difference in living life with intention.
• Bill talks about how sometimes people get afraid of meditation because they fear dealing with deep emotions;
• Success is based on our ability to organize and communicate emotions;
• Bill shares tips and strategies to start incorporating meditation into daily life;
• Mornings are fundamental to productivity and also important to meditate. The most important part of the day is the first hour;
• It’s fundamental to take a moment after the meditation and identify what was felt during the practice.

“Don't be upset by the results you didn't get with the work you didn't do.” This quote by motivational speaker Eric Thomas summarizes pretty well today’s episode. Brian talks about this idea of going all in and committing to your goals in every way possible. Your results are a direct consequence of the work you put in and this applies to all areas of life including work, relationships and marriage, and health.

 

In order to get to where you want to be – with fitness, for example – it’s fundamental to take the small daily steps that you think don’t matter. Brian highlights in the episode that short-term sacrifices are an excellent way to achieve long-term goals. Why not start today doing the things and changing the habits that you know will get you results in the future? You can listen to this episode again and again, but change starts with you.

 

Key Highlights

• Taking the small daily steps (like making a healthier choice with your next meal) is the easiest way to get to where you want to be;
• Don’t get upset about the work you didn’t do. If you are not seeing results, maybe it’s time to analyze the habits you need to replace;
• What are your patterns? What are the things that you do on a daily basis that are sabotaging you and preventing you to change?
• Brian talks about the idea of “short term sacrifices for long term goals” and how you can start to change now if you want to.

John helps other men get in shape and recover self-esteem through his coaching company Supra Human. Today, John highlights that a lot of guys unconsciously settle for average when they don’t even know that they can achieve and be much more.

Brian and John also talk about commitment and how the fact that following a goal is not only a good example for ourselves, but for other people (our partners, our children, our friends) too. John also gives advice for married men who think that just because they have children and a partner, they don’t need to be “their best self”.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian has an interesting conversation with Kenny Johnson. Kenny works as a coach, helping men understand their feelings, manage their emotions, and optimize their bodies. Today, Kenny explains that the great majority of people – and he sees that through his clients – don’t really know why they have poor habits and for that reason, have a hard time trying to change.

In addition, Kenny talks about his own mindset shifts and the work he had to do on himself before being able to help others do the work on themselves. A lot of times, mentors and coaches are seen as people who have all figured out when it comes to healthy habits, relationships, or work, but they are also learning. At the end of the day, as Brian and Kenny point out, we are all a work in progress. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Kenny talks about his background, the first steps of his career, and his experience transitioning to the coaching world;
• Kenny explains that it’s important to investigate why we behave the way we do; Most of the times, poor habits have an explanation behind (5 whys);
• In order to be an excellent coach and know how to help others through coaching, Kenny had to work on himself first;
• Brian and Kenny discuss the differences between ‘male’ and ‘man’ and how they correlate with the concept of leadership (making decisions);
• Kenny explains that through the work he does with his clients he found out that people are lacking self-love and don’t really understand their belief systems.

Building a solid relationship can be a challenging process. Different marriages have different dynamics and every couple is unique, but one thing remains fundamental for all types of partnerships to work: dialogue. Talking with the partner, opening up about what’s on the mind and the heart, and expressing your feelings without being selfish is truly the key to making the relationship functional. And both sides need to do this.

 

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian welcomes his wife Tasha to have a discussion on marriage, how to be flexible and adaptable in daily life to make the relationship work, and as Brian points out, the importance of “zooming out” in the middle of an argument. It’s also important to validate the good things of a partner and validate the positive feelings in your connection. Tune in!

 

Key Highlights

• Marriages and relationships in general work based on dialogue, but why do most partners speak different languages?
• Brian and Tasha talk about the necessity of being flexible and having an open mind for the relationship to work;
• Brian explains the importance of “zooming out” in the middle of an argument to reflect on the situation and avoid any additional harm;
• We need to validate the good things and the positive aspects of our partner more often – instead of just focusing on their weaknesses;
• It’s important to listen first before trying to make a point and say the next thing that comes to your mind.

The younger generation needs some sort of guidance when it comes to growing up in the sport and athletic industry. This concept applies to both professional young athletes and the average kid who just plays for fun and entertainment.

Join this episode of The Success Lift Podcast as Brian has a conversation with Clint Laukhuf talking about the world of coaching for kids, how to behave in order to encourage kids, and what is the ideal approach to empower children in sports. Children and especially teenagers, have a tendency to be self-absorbed and the way adults talk to them – and the language used – play a huge role. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Clint found out the concept of mindset (a.k.a. the way to address the beliefs) and it was exactly what he needed to start his career;
• Clint explains the idea of belief systems for young athletes and how they need to work on their confidence;

Marriage is a game of investment. Both sides need to invest in the solution as much as their own feelings and issues. That’s why nobody disagrees that the key to a healthy and sustainable relationship is dialogue, and commiting to finding the solutions is the key to coming to an agreement, whatever the problem might be. But what if the crisis is a physical one?

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian welcomes Keith Yackey to discuss the do’s and don’ts of how to act when trying to get your wife’s physical attention again.

• Tactical steps on where to start when trying to get the wife’s physical attention again in a marriage;
• Keith explains the concept of the 5 dials (parenting, partner, producing, player, power);
• Stop trying to come up with reasons of why you’re always right in a argument; Understand when you need to listen instead of talk;
• How to operate in abundance instead of scarcity in a relationship;
• How to create new standards for yourself, your life, and your relationship; You need to like you first before having feelings for someone else;
• Keith talks about his physical transformation and the causes and consequences of it.

A career transition has even more things to consider: your financial condition, your family, people who depend on you, lifestyle changes… All of that can be factors that go into making a decision, but the only capable person to evaluate your whole situation is you. If you are lacking courage and inspiration, why not learn from someone who has done it all then?

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian and Trevor Turnbull talk about taking this leap of faith from a traditional job to entrepreneurship. Trevor shares that all the insecurities and struggles he went through eventually brought him something positive and that the key to this positivity was feeling proud of himself. Trevor also talks about the importance of balancing work with family, health, and relationships. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• Trevor’s first experience making a transition to entrepreneurship (from athlete to business man);
• Trevor shares that everything he went through in terms of lack of confidence, self-doubt and uncertainty brought him something positive;
• Brian and Trevor talk about the importance of owning our choices and being proud of the way we show up to the world;

• The importance of being able to balance it all – work, family, health, and relationships;

The way we talk to ourselves and to other people around us says a lot about our personality. The curious thing is: oftentimes we find it very difficult to change our actions, to improve our mindset, and to be better people precisely because of the language we use. How many times has something challenging happened to you and you immediately used the word “victim” to describe yourself? Words have power.

In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, Brian takes you through a conversation with Mark England and Kimberly Kesting, owners of Enlifted. Through their coaching practice, they teach business owners, leaders, and anyone interested, to transform their vocabulary for their benefit. Today, Mark and Kimberly explain the concepts of negation, soft talk, and how language influences even our breathing. Tune in!

Key Highlights

• The story behind Mark and Kimberly’s transition to become coaches and some life circumstances that inspired them;
• When problems arise, everyone summon up the victim mentality (which is the reason why the problems seem worse than reality);
• The impact of using negative words on daily lives;
• The concept of negation and how to better instruct and talk to kids, using with the right words;
• Kimberly talks about the concept of ‘soft talk’;
• Mark explains that once you start to be aware of some of these negative keywords, it’s important to stop using them;
• How the language we use influences our breathing and vice versa.

Movement is part of our lives since the day we are born, but one important thing to consider throughout our path is that movement should continue to be part of our lives, and this is something most people – especially those with busy schedules – don’t do, which is ok. The first step to start changing this reality and start moving more is really just being aware of small activities we can implement in our day.

Grant talks about the do’s and dont’s of exercising and being active for someone in their 30s and 40s, what can people who struggle with small injuries do to improve their fitness state, and how it all began for his own athletic journey.

Key Highlights

• Reasons why Grant was always so disciplined around fitness (his own background with exercise);
• Grant talks about how many years were necessary for him to reach this fitness level and be able to do what he does today;
• Where and how does somebody in their 30s or 40s start?
• How a person who is not so fit or maybe have small injuries can add more movement in their routines;
• Grant talks about his new projects, including dance;

When we think fitness we think hard workouts, strict diets, and tons of exercising each and every day, right?
